Somebody told me it's almost Christmas

I'm not sure.. Yes, it's already colder now than ever.. It is December... But do you know the feeling that Christmas is not around the corner...
I guess you don't... You're not in my position..
One theory I raised upon such feeling is that it is because I've got lots of things to do--I'm so preoccupied with a lot of school duties that I barely care if it's Christmas already..
Even all of the professors don't recognize Christmas anymore.. They don't get the meaning of 'Christmas Vacation'. They don't even know what 'Vacation' means, I think..
Anyway, so it's almost the day for Simbang Gabi.. I bet you will be seeing them people who are too flashy that they seem to go to a bar or something. But they are merely going to Simbang Gabi ---or what this generation may dub as 'Simbang Porma'.
The essence of Christmas and the sense of going to the church are forgotten. These teenagers go there because they will see their crushes or some new chicks or whatever. Some just come there for the wish they could make upon completing the 9 days. Some would just come there to show up.
Is that how you show you're a Christian? Yuck!!
Anyway, aside from bitching around again and whipping the commoners again with my pointed tongue... I guess you must forgive me because I'm stressed. I'm bombarded with all what I need to suppress into my head.
This will be the first Christmas I will be forgetting about. As the others will be getting ready for some walks and visits and everything 'Christmassy', I hit the books and do my home works.
Busy Christmas for me!!
Fucking System of Education!!!
