Three Hard Cs

Lighted night when we walked the campus. We were discussing the hypocrisy of transparent Christmas trees in the Philippines when I out and told my friend how much I hate the University’s season design and that I didn’t love her. She said that she actually adored the decorations. For one, the Christmas-lighted and enMangered Carabao Park seemed to her an inside out elementary classroom where each kid is tasked to bring a decor, and the teacher has to make art bloom from the jingle jumble given her. She was never successful. I wanted to offer the word “eclectic,” but I wouldn’t know how to defend three hard C syllables if she decided to shoot them down with yuletide spite. I just said that I couldn’t afford affections for any campus adorned like so. She nodded. Sometimes a person’s nod means that she wants to say something, and she’s cutting you off with her chin to say her something. Sometimes it means that she’s thinking and isn’t paying attention to what you’re saying, but there’s her nod to comfort you into ignoring the fact that she’s thinking outside of you saying. Then the times when a nod means yes. Times like that don’t always amount to holidays.
