The season makes me happy

I've been running back and forth to buy christmas presents for everyone.

Bags for my cousins.... Check

Shirts for my boyfriends.... Check

Picture frames for my friends... Check

A bag for my mum..... Check

Ragnarok card for Cholo... I have no idea where to buy that!

Toys for my nieces and nephews.... Check

Cash envelopes for the forgotten ones... Check

Of course there are the requested gifts by uber-kulit individuals like Sheiy, Soleil and Sheryl. They each requested a specific gift and me being a happy Santa this yearn obliged.

Going to a bazaar was a challenge. It was hot, sticky, noisy and completely cheap.

I haggled til I can't haggle anymore.

One hand holding the shoppping bags and the other clutching my bag just to be safe.

I can't even go to the loo without having to breathe through my mouth.

I'm not a pa-sosyal or anything of that sort but I do have a strict rule in hygiene. I think everybody does, so it's not a crime to complain about how shitty loos are.

I gave up after four hours. I coudln't take it anymore. It was too much for me to go to a bazaar and haggle and sweat and stop every ten steps to check out a merchandise.

Who needs a bazaar when there's a mall right?

I was wrong. The second time I went to a bazaar, I was energized and filled with hope that I can be lucky enough to buy cheap stuff.

I was right.

Four thousand pesos, five hours, three stepped toes and eight arguments with my friend later, I was a happy happy girl.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!!
