Busy preparing for Christmas?
London starts to put on more layers. The days gets shorter, and temperature drops. You start to hear people's chat up line change to 'it's a rather crisp morning eh?', or 'it's cold outside!'.
Even if you don't watch TV, but listen to it, you can tell that Christmas is getting nearer when you hear those loud advertisements shouting - 'get your xxx XXX this Christmas!...'. Oh why do they have to convince you to buy something for someone on Christmas? Can you not make something for someone? There is this movement called the 'BuyNothingChristmas' act, I thought it is rather interesting. They even made a song to promote this movement! Well, somehow the 'less is more' idea is rather attractive. But how well will it go in practice? Hmm...
At work, they are giving employees free flu jabs. Since it's free, I jumped the queue and took a jab. 'Ouch!... err... will I get any reactions from this jab?' I asked the nurse. 'Oh, only flu like symptoms - headache, fever, cold.... blahblah... lasts about 24hours...' said the nurse. Oh well, it doesn't sound that bad I guess? Just that I've chosen to fall ill voluntarily. How silly! Now... I do feel a dull headache. Not good I suppose considering I'm only just about recovering from a cold.
Speaking about falling sick. Do you ever wonder why you always miss home when you are ill? Or is this just me again?
Right! Better get my act together and carry out some DDA-ly chores. *blah*! What else? Christmas gift and card list making.
