We must have been very good this year, we got a Wii for Christmas! Thanks Ma and Pa! I'm hooked on Resident Evil 4, Wii Sports and play Paper Mario on the sly.
It's been a yearly routine as soon as the 2nd week of December kicks in I'm busy busy busy. On my list: decorating the house, planning, cooking for my 2 siblings birthday, Christmas and New Year Feast. For my sisters' birthday she requested Korean Chap Chae. For my brothers' birthday Shrimp Tempura and Calamares. From time to time I'm usually requested to cook certain dishes for parties and functions my mom attends to.
Last 20th was my moms' company party and again I was requested to cook my special Pancit Molo. I had to prepare and individually wrap a 8 packs of molo wrapper, a pack is estimated to have 100 sheets.
I have a typical first name and that is Kristina. It could be spelled-out in different ways (Cristina, Christina, Xtina and what have you) but nevertheless it still sounds the same. For the last 2 decades of my existence, my name has evolved from Maria, tin-tin, Kristina, Kristeta, tina, tins and in an effort to be unique I finally chose a hyphenated name now I am t-na.

Confessions
I always said the right things, throwing smiles left and right, ignoring "unpleasant" scenarios pretend that it didn't happen. I found it difficult to say NO, even though I really don't want to do it. To top it off, I always believed that "If I could just be nice to other people, maybe they will also be nice to me in return". Now, realizing that all of that crap I thought of is just full of shit since a lot of people took advantage of my disposition. Some of them even recognized that I was gullible and naive but instead of correcting me, they completely did the opposite. I've treasured momments of reflection and meditation, the healing of wounds. One day I'll face and conquer my demons...
