3rd Day of Christmas-3 topics. (This isn't going to go on forever, trust me)
Today, I spent some time doodling and I was surprised by what I came up with. My artwork was always the worst, and I hardly got anything more than a C in primary school.
So what I did was to draw a cube and by darkening one of the 4 lines in each of the cube's 6 faces randomly, doesn't it look like a chair? Take the shaded part for something you leaned on.
On Christmas, I had a gathering, so I took a bus. Upon alighting, a lady's comb (that lady was also alighting and was in front of me) dropped and landed on the chair. I saw it and tapped on her shoulder, returning the comb. She was grateful, and told this to her boyfriend (I believe) who was waiting at the bus-stop for her, wondering what the hold-up was. What a Happy Christmas.
Maybe 20 minutes later, there was man about 30 years old, who gave some money to an elderly man on the sidewalk (but not blocking the way), in exchange for some tissue packs. I was a few steps behind this man. He was definitely kind and generous and I feel something. Not exactly happy, though. This old man then said loudly in Chinese, that that person will have great luck and so on treating him as his benefactor. Can I say I pitied the old man? Why not he try looking for a job or something, even if it's a cleaner? Maybe I am affected by what my parents say. They feel that if you are able-bodied, you should find a job, instead of sitting there, begging people to buy tissue. We have seen before some handicapped people, so independent on their own by the streets singing or doing some sort of "work" instead of sitting there and expect empathy. Those are the people whom we should donate our money to as an encouragement.
I hope that you, the reader no matter how fortunate or unfortunate you are, are able to learn something out of this entry today.

Oh and Santa came by. Thank you! I appreciate it. (Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho-reminds me of Range-chan from Ouran High School Host Club, an anime.)
