Merry Christmas
All the christmas trees and decorations were all meant for today. 25th December although itself has its Christian meaning that Jesus came to Earth, to most people these days, Christmas would mean spending with your loved ones and symbolizes that a year is coming to an end.
Christmas began by waking up at 3am for diarrhea. I ate too overly before the sleep last night and had to wake up at 3am throw all of them out. Watched a TV show as I couldn't go for a sleep straight away. Later on, waking up around 9 in the morning, it wasthe normal Christmas that I could remember for our family. Dad wouldn't be home for work and mom, sis and I would be peacefully in the living room watching TV. All the movies that are showing for Christmas seasons like 'Home Alone, Harry Potter series and etc. added onto the mood of Christmas. Lazing out in the morning waiting for the time to get out for work. The work that I finally got was to be at 1pm so I had plenty of time before I got out. Had a breakfast and waited for time to pass. When it was around 12, I began bathing and left the house.
On reaching the shop at the AK plaza, the manager directed me to another employer whom I was supposed to follow him to carry two boxes of goodiebags from a store room. He was a nice person to talk to. We had a good time talking to each other along the way. I'd thought in me, that... being friendly is the right way... Mom told me I myself doesn't have any specific character or have a particular strong character for myself and said I was boring.. But i do not regret being this way, because I wouldn't be able to talk to a stranger fluently without being so and the praise that the other employer told me that I'm friendly, was enough to make me forget about what mom said.
On carrying the goodiebags back to the shop, I carried my own flyers and went down to the place that manager told me to station at. It was in front the escalator that moved up to the floor that shop was located at. I stationed and started distributing the flyers busily. Never in my life, I had said "annyunghaseyo" and "Gamsahapnida" so much. I assure I had said it more than ten thousand times. As it was Christmas, most of the guests were couple. One thing i found out, was that girls receive the flyer more often that guys do. Also, if I shout hello louder, the moer they will tend to receive. On realizing the pattern, I made use of it and finished distributing really a lot of flyers that i went up to take another box of flyers within an hour. As i went up to the shop to collect new set of flyers, I was sooo overwhelmed by the happiness to see all the people who had actually received my flyers, purchasing stuff at the shop. I felt like I am a big part of the shop now.
When it was 6, the manager allowed me for dinner and I was given an hour's break. This Part time-job is really a good one. I get a good one hour rest and all I have to do is to give out the flyer without describing all anything.
I went down to the basement to see what cheap foods I can find. After realizing the value of money through working myself, I really didn't want to spend much money. The cheapest I could find was Tukboggi which I just ate with Jun two days ago. After eating quickly I left the place to go up to the rooftop, as I saw an advertisement that there was a futsal court at the rooftop.
adidas all in Futsal Court
took a selfie in the toilet like how teens do
Seeing the futsal court, it aroused the feeling of being on field and playing. Getting back all the memories I had in JC futsal court. Actually, the December's cold wind overwhelmed my whole body that I couldn't think of anything. I quickly got into a hall beside the futsal court that was heated. Seeing people who seemed like about my age coming up to the rooftop to see the futsal court, bragging about their skills, I thought myself, "I played futsal for two years". Although this was a sad fact, I was at that time proud myself.
When it was 7, I got down to the shop to carry my flyers. I distributed the flyers happily as I had my energies back. When people smile and say thanks it was the happiness to carry on. Especially when girls do. I distributed the flyers madly, and I finished all the flyers again. I was supposed to work till 10pm, so I moved up to collect another set of flyers. However, the manager told me to go home. SOooo lucky. He told me take a rest and come back tomorrow. He is an angel from the sky. I got out feeling achieved. Reached home, and came back home like a dad that came back from work with breads on one hand for the family. I felt like I'm the breadwinner for my family as I literally bought breads for myself when I came home.
Tomorrow would be another day of this job. Hopefully, when I get an opportunity, I could get a different job as I want to have different experience in different jobs. Such meaningful day today.
Hope, tomorrow will be more fulfilling and achieving than I was today. Thank you Youngsub and Merry Christmas to all.
