My Dream CHRISTMAS CLASSICS Collection

 

what a beautiful sunrise after a night of rain. so i did have my usual coffee and smoking session to start my morning.

to add spice to the beautiful morning, i played my CD of Christmas Classics (50s and 60s artists), which took me a year to compile. as i was enjoying my coffee, smoke, and the music, i did get reminded of the time i was still in the efforts of downloading these selections. i used to hear them at Starbucks Coffee during Christmastime and at SM Supercenter in Sucat (yes, i do salute how SM chooses its house music). in all craving to have the songs, i’d take note of some lines of the lyrics and search them at Google, find the titles and artists, and download the songs at LimeWire). finally, i have them all in one CD.

at the time when i was at the height of downloading, i remember my ex-boyfriend asking sarcastically, ANU YAN? so i excitedly answered, i’m collecting songs for a Christmas Classics CD. i hear them at Starbucks and at SM. to my surprise, he answered back, BAKIT MO PINAG-AAKSAYAHAN NG PANAHON ANG MGA YAN? IKAKAYAMAN MO BA YAN??

gosh, i was dumbfounded; insulted as i was, i still managed to answer: GUSTO MONG YUMAMAN? MANG-HOLDUP KA NG BANGKO!

remembering that line put a smile on my face while having my coffee; i felt contented and satisfied with that clever answer that i gave. instead of getting pissed at the memory, my day did brighten up.

and that’s the story for today, Wednesday, October 21.
