Simbang Gabi
As much as I want to concentrate during the mass, I always get to sit beside some distracting people.
1st day: none at all but it was really hot where I sat
2nd day: teenage kids talking and laughing while the mass was going on and a mother who breast feeds her child with her breasts exposed
3rd day: college couple who are cuddling each other, the girl keeps on biting the guy’s shoulder
4th day: Apparently, this college couple were lectors and readers
5th day: Married couple around 40 to 50-ish who talks and chats so loud even during the homily and they really sing out of tune
Please hearing the mass is different from attending a mass. Please be true to your intentions. And please, respect God if you can not respect the people around you who are trying to reflect this Christmas season.
I am really thinking about sitting beside the nuns in the next 4 days!




My name is Xyla, a 24-year-old Filipina unemployed registered nurse. I am a freelance writer for a nursing magazine of a review center. I aim to be a nurse leader in the future. With only 12 units left in my Master's Degree (Major in Medical-Surgical Nursing), I am ready to teach nursing students. During my past time, I kill Zombies, plant Cherry Bombs, Marigold and Melon Pult and make cheesy stuff for my boyfriend. I firmly justify that I am not too old for Glee-addiction. I hate prepositions. They make my life complicated.
