Christmas Intermezzo


I bought this piece of clothing with long and winding consideration. It's not only for its price (which I found a bit steep for just a piece of blouse) but also for the design of which showing a low neck line (I never had any tops with that low neck line...). And it's like a tradition for myself to buy a new piece of clothing for Christmas mass and I thought this year I deserved something a bit pricey. So I finally decided to buy it.


The process of buying this tops wasn't really smooth either, I had to check on some stores for the availability as not all stores carry all sizes.

Honestly saying, this one is my most expensive tops so far and I was so glad I have it and had planned to wear it on Christmas eve mass.

But that was before I got sick.

When the eve finally came, I really had no intentions of wearing it. I got headache all over my head, dizzy, itchy throat, and my nose can't stop running. It's impossible to wear such a thing with my condition. I didn't even put much effort on my make-up as usual. All I knew was I had to attend the mass, that's all. I didn't care of my clothing... so I ended up wearing the blouse that I bought for my 2005 Christmas eve mass. -.-

When I went to sleep after the mass, I was thinking of this life; my life... my expensive blouse(which still bnwt - brand new with tag), my tradition of having a new cloth every Christmas, my influenza that keeps me feeling as if I'm carrying heavy load in my head, the upcoming New Year, and lots more.

Then I remember this: "Luxury, something you don't really need and can't do without. (Anonymous).

Maybe I don't really need that blouse, maybe I shouldn't spend that much... maybe...

Update 10 January 2009:
I finally got the chance to wear the blouse! Wore it to
Pacific Place, on a get-together weekend with friends. Love it, love my 2008 Christmas tops ~.~
