This year's birthday is turning out to be the complete opposite of last year. Less than a week away and I still have nothing planned. I remember celebrating so much during the whole month of December last year with different groups of friends that it actually extended to January! "Dude, I'm beginning to think your birthday will never end," a friend said. HA! Let's see if I can manage to put together something this year, though.

Aside from birthday plans, another reason I'm ecstatic about December is because I can layer (a tiny bit). When you live in a tropical country where you can never get your layering game on, the slightest hint of cool-er weather entitles you to a celebratory dance and an added layer of clothing. In this case, I chose to take out my long stored utilitarian jacket. What a joy!


Now the thing is, though, is that when I layer on top, I still have to balance it out by wearing shorts, a skirt, or really lightweight pants. It doesn't really get cold enough for a full-on knitted situation.


How's December weather at your end of the world?

I'm going to go get my Christmas shopping on this weekend. And with the crowd of shoppers during this season, I need all the patience and luck I can get!
