Life in Orange-Tinted Glasses

hiatus

December 23, 2009

Ho ho ho! I’m still a little wide awake from that tall Starbucks coffee I drank in the afternoon. It’s our last day (at least for the week), and our boss treated us some coffee and sandwich Starbucks lovin’. I always say that I’m contented with Nescafe 3-in-1 but I gotta admit, brewed coffee is a real treat too.

The past few days have been a bit “dizzying” for me (but of course fulfilling), having to advance articles to get us to this most-wanted break (lol) in the wake of a sleepy state. Now that last statement made me dizzy. Haha. Anyway. Everyday I had to down two cups of coffee (except for yesterday, when I downed some black tea for my second cup) to keep me not just awake but sane enough to squeeze decent and creative words out of me. You see, I’m completing the Simbang Gabi. It’s my second time, the first time being back in second year college. [How grateful and happy I was then! Yiheee. The heavens granted my wish.] I go and drag myself out of bed during past couple of days and attend the mass as my way of saying thank you to God for this wonderful, wonderful year. It may be too little a sacrifice as compared to how much I was blessed but I hope God gets it. And I know He does. And of course, I’ve got a wish for next year. Keeping all my fingers crossed that it’ll be granted.

I remember getting a text before from a friend saying: “repeated experiences mean one thing: to teach us what we refuse to learn.” Yeah, maybe I need to experience “similar” things to test myself if I had really learned my lesson.

Meanings and reasons are relative. But there is only one truth.

Now I’m sleepy. Yey. Gotta hit the sheets. Last day of Simbang Gabi coming in a few hours! And of course, it’s Christmas Eveeeeeeeeeeee! Wooh!!!! \m/
