But let the foolish spend his money as he will. I got some other things in mind for this month that I'm really hoping I won't forget.
First off, birthdays. I don't know why I suck so much at remembering dates. Okay sure, a belated or advanced greeting is fine; it's the thought that counts anyway, doesn't it? But it feels a lot better to just be able to greet someone on the actual day itself, makes it more special.
Second, EDSA anniversary. It's been roughly half a year since Cory Aquino died and I suppose this year's EDSA commemoration will be a test of sorts for Filipinos. Will the spirit be alive as it was when the nation weeped when Cory died? Or will our short-term memories get the better of us once again as we let another EDSA anniversary pass without us even noticing it?

It'll be a really quick month for sure. But I guess I'm just a little anxious to see what will happen.

Sometimes I wish I'm the owner of a gift shop or a motel. --> Mag-franchise ka na ng Sogo. LOL!
I don't know why I suck so much at remembering dates. --> Me too. If it weren't for Facebook and YahooGroups birthday reminders, I probably would've had fewer friends now. :P

Yung Maguindanao massacre, nasaan na? Naisantabi na kapalit ng walang kwentang mga showbiz balita. Makes me want to vomit.
I'll seriously consider the Sogo thing. No discounts for friends, sorry.
If it weren't for FB I wouldn't remember or even know about birthdays either. When was the last time I sent you a happy birthday in the last ten years?
And yes it's really sad how easy we forgot about so many important things. And I'm pretty sure that things like that Ivler incident will be forgotten before we even notice.
I'll seriously consider the Sogo thing. --> Hehe!
When was the last time I sent you a happy birthday in the last ten years? --> I can't remember. :P
