It’s Christmas
and I’m at work (but not working though).
Well, it’s
Christmas for Christ’s sake!
My Christmas was
just fine. I didn’t spend it alone as I’ve planned.
But it wasn’t
happy at all.
Made me remember
how I used to spend Christmas in the past years…
with my family.
Yeah, those were the days…
My happy
days.
I’m checking on
some friends’ friendster profiles.
And I’m enjoying
checking their photos…
I wonder where
all my high school and college friends are now.
Only a few kept
in touch.
Some txt-ed last
night though…
And the people I
was expecting to remember seemed too busy to…
Very
disappointing.
It’s happy to
read about them and see how we’ve all grown up.
Adulthood is
tough– yes, you can do what you want to
but a great deal
of responsibility comes with it.
You have to
handle everything by yourself.
You get to
decide, yes, but you also have to take responsibility of the
outcome.
It’s not like you
can cry if things won’t work out and ask mama or papa to fix it up for
you.
As it was said–
with great power comes great responsibility (Peter Parker)– adulthood
is our gift and our curse.
Back to the
pictures, I was struck by one– a friend from college with her
boyfriend.
They looked
happy– a perfect picture of contentment.
It’s been months
since the last time I saw her.
We used to see
each other every Sunday night at the UP Chapel.
Since she moved
to Espana, I’ve never seen her again.
I wonder how
she’s doing now… and if she really is happy with her life.
The last time we
talked, she said she’s too tired of working and she wants to go back to
school…
Back to those
years when all we worried about are exams :p
I’m still looking
at the picture.
It makes me
wonder if I’ll ever be in one.
Happily sitting
on a boat wrapped in someone’s arm.
Or at least
happily sitting– contented with life.
Living the simple
life I’ve always dreamt of.
Well, I guess
life is too complex to be simple :p
I prefer to live
alone.
Scared to grow
old alone though.
I don’t know what
I want.
What I want to
do this life– this gift and curse (hahaha… spoken like a
superhero :p).
I don’t
understand why I feel so empty– so incomplete.
All I know is
that I’m not the only one.
I’m getting too
serious… and I hate it when I’m serious.
Gotta work now.
Merry Christmas!
Let’s all be happy
