The Carollers' Grinch

I really dont want to be taken as a snob or anything much worse, but i started to hate those annoying carollers. I really think there should be a minimum number of members and not go as solo artists then fall in line and play the same song over and over. if they have to pay royalties for the Noche Buena Song (Kaysigla ng gabi ang lahat ay kaysaya...), the composer will be richer than Bill Gates.

But come on, Philippines? Royalties? Im just making an exaggerated point.

There used to be those cute charming kids (ehem ehem ehem. i hope you got the point mga kab-batch kong carollers), who had dynamics when singing, their tambourines on beat and when they start to sing, the serenity of the holiday nights calms down your everything. you get to listen, ponder, feel sad if youre manic depressive and pay as low as 1 peso to 5 for each group.

But if you live in an area where kids do not seriously have an idea what theyre doing, all dressed in black with their emo hairs, not wearing slippers, and after giving them three pesos (kahit duo lang sila na sobrang out of tune), you will get embarassed by hearing Thank you, thank you, amBABARAT ninyo thank you, and they start to run, cussing. Its like trick or treating 9 days before christmas. O_o The fact that theyre just shouting like kids with ADHD throwing christmas tantrums or whatever you call it, THEY STILL WANNA GET PAID!

3 days ago, ive gathered all my 25cents and pisos, thinking... may use din pala to pagkatapos ng isang buong taon. and i thought aabot sha ng 24. pero my god, i dont know if they have this station or headquarters where they all meet up and tell everyone, "puntahan nyo to, hindi to nanghihingi ng tawad" (that.. didnt actually sound right.) so for just one night, i guess i ran out of coins. and the others... are not even thankful or happy. what the hell is happening!

even in simbang gabi, hindi nabubuo ang isang misa ng walang riot sa dulo. again, teens dressed in black, with their sticky hairs, short short shorts, and they actually come in PACKS. hence, i dont even go to church anymore. because... i still wanna live until christmas. or after even.

/me chanting im a christmas person, im a christmas person.
