Lonely Christmas

Where's the magic?

For me, Christmas has sort of lost its magic. What else to expect other than frustration and loneliness from every aspect of life?

The day passed by like every other weekend. The main difference lies in the fact that you have to act cheerful and keep a smile on your face when you meet friends and wish them a merry Christmas. Or even when typing out a post in the blog.

I have had many posts whining about having to act in life, so no more about that, though I would very much like to go on about having to act like someone I am not.

But this Christmas is really pretty awful for me even if it does not show.

Last Christmas, I have zero ideas on how I spent it. The only evidence left over from my blog entries, which as usual, do not contain a summary of the day, shows that I was pretty much whining about everything. Almost like what I am doing now.

At the end of the day, it simply shows that I am not a Christmas person. Well, what would you expect me to say? That I love Christmas, and it just happens to be a slow season this year and next year will be a bomb? It would be nothing more than a string of lies if I said that.

This Christmas, I spent bulk of the day in Azeroth (World of Warcraft), and in the practice studio. The evening was completely taken up by games, first in the school's computer lab, then the LAN shop at Parklane. How exciting can it be? At least it beats moping around at home over some spilt milk.

Thus ends my Christmas post. I hereby wish all readers a blessed festive season.
