tuk tuks and christmas
I’ve never really had a fun christmas. I always remember being really fussy and grumpy when i never got what i wanted. That was a couple of years ago.. Now…i’m exhausted. Just got home after literally draining shopping expedition. One thing i noticed was how commercialized this damn holiday has become. I mean this is a predominantly Buddhist country, and look at the impact the damn holiday’s having on people! Odel was packed with more people i see in church at midnight mass!!! Unfortunately even though there’s so much red, green and twinkly lights from crescat to the little game kade down my road there’s no real christmas spirit. Heck even i haven’t got it.
Tuk tuks honk, and wheedle their way into every nook and cranny. Prices soar and eyebrows rise. Purses are opened. Bank accounts are emptied. That’s what Christmas has become my friend, and i for one wish i had a little christmas cheer to share.
