Santa.

Dear Santa,

It’s that time of the year again and I’m sure you must be busy like mad, reading letters, emails, cards and what not. I’m not sure if you would have time to be reading this, but heck, I think I should still write you something, after conveniently forgetting about it for the past 20 years or so.

For a start, I think I’ve been a good kid this year. As a teacher before my current job, I think I didn’t screw up the lives of the kids as much as they screwed up mine, so I can say that I did not retaliate to all the wrong that was done onto me. So that’s good deed number one. Also, I have been telling the truth more nowadays. Now I would really let the person know that he’s a real idiot by jumping queue, or would let the group of people walking in one horizontal line in front of me know that they are blocking the way for other people. Since it’s a virtue to be telling the truth, so I think that’s good deed number two. Of course, there are also a lot of good deeds that I’ve done this year, but undertanding that you are short of time, I think I’ll skip the part about describing them.

So now what do I want for Christmas? Honestly speaking, I could have a long list, which would include things like a PS3, a Motorola V9, a new HDTV, a new home renovation job, etc etc. But apart from these things that I could probably buy using my own money, there are also a lot of things that money can’t be bought, so that’s where I need your help. I would appreciate if you can bring more love to my life. Love from family, love from friends, love as in romance, etc etc. Nobody would have too much of love, and I’m sure it wouldn’t be difficult for you to spare some resources into catering to this request. Of course, if I have to choose only a few types of love, love as in romance would be something nice. But then again, love from friends and family are important too. This I’m not too sure, maybe you can use your expert judgement and decide for me what I should be getting. Anything would be nice, really.

Hope to hear from you soon. And yes, if you have some good job lobangs apart from climbing into chimneys please let me know too. I don’t mind some reindeer sleighing actually.

Cheers,
Kin Ching =)
