I guess you know how crazy households get as Christmas Day draws near. Mind you, even ours was not spared. My Mom has been making deserts since yesterday and our refrigerator is undeniably filled by mouthwatering deserts, which are scheduled to be brought tomorrow to our simple noche buena with my relatives, Father's side. Some of them though will be brought to a Christmas lunch time celebration at my grandparents' place-- Mother's side, this time-- the next day. And, my oh my, how grateful I am for being trapped in a delightful and yummy atmosphere, which is the mere result of all my Mom's baking and cooking. How pleasingly delicious the smell is! I cannot wait to have a taste!

For the meantime, I, on the other hand, have been preoccupied. Ha, well, I suppose you know how much "preoccupied" there was an overstatement. Of course, I have not engaged myself into worthwhile activities ever since break started. Oh, don't blame me. I have been longing for this vacation for quite a while and I am irrefutably happy to be away from school-related facets even just for the mere two weeks. Yes, two weeks of rest and relaxation and I have nothing else to do but to make sure that I will be able to make hay while the sun shines. Anyone care to join?

Admittedly, I have been addicted to doing something worthless. (If you want to call it an addiction, you are free to do so.) I have been in the basement for hours and was drawn away from reality. I was so carried away that I was not anymore mindful of the time. Ha, how crazy it does get! But I'm sortakinda loving it. I mean, the feelig of being carefree, not being mindful, and all. Whoo! It is like summer again. Summer with a cool breeze and a cold atmosphere. My summer in December.
