My head hurts from a bad combination of insomnia, PMS, colds, cough, pre-fever, and post-wart operation. On top of that, I have writer envy and Diner Dash 2 Level 39 frustration.

Except for the cold weather and the pretty city lights, I can't feel Christmas yet.

I was waiting for today the whole year. That's how boring I am. I badly wanted a day when I'm justified to feel good without questions asked. Now, I'm "a 23 on the verge of spontaneous combustion." Let's see how I'll pull through this time. :) 

Thank God for lending me another year. Thanks to my awesome parents for having me. Thanks to my family for their never-ending sweetness. Thanks to my friends for the greetings, gifts, and the happy picnic. I love you all!

I still have a few hours 'till my day ends, so I think I'm gonna spend it wisely by watching TV with my mom. Haha. Later skater. :)   

The Eraserheads Reunion concert last Saturday was so surreal, I still have goosebumps today. People in the thousands came to see and hear the legendary band play again after six long years. Sure, it was cut short and people shook their heads in disbelief. But it was a great first set from "Alapaap" to "Lightyears." Best effort from a man who underwent two angioplasties and, just two days earlier, lost his mother.

The band, the music, the crowd, and the silent tension--it was possibly the best one-hour concert I could ever attend. And it didn't hurt that I got in for free. :)

Ely's heart is tired, so I'm giving him mine. :)

As requested, here's my birthday wishlist:

- Sigur Rós Með Suð Í Eyrum Við Spilum Endalaust album (Don't blame me for trying)
- Merriam Webster Dictionary New Edition (Help me with my vocabulary)
- Juno original DVD (Because the little pink plus sign is so unholy!)
- Incubus Light Grenades album (No need to explain why)
- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Don't have it yet)
- 35 mm camera films ISO 200 or 100 (For the love of lomo)
- Retractable eyeliner pencil color black (Apparently, I need it for work)

But I'm pretty shallow, so you can get me anything or nothing at all (if your conscience can handle it. Haha). Thanks!
