Dear Santa,


How are you? Hope you are not too busy delivering gifts to take time to read my letter.


First of all, please pardon me for writing to you only now. You see, I was street-smart when I was a kid so I never bought into the idea of a jolly fat man in red with a long white beard giving everyone gifts they wished for. Plus, my parents always taught us to work conscientiously for the things we desired; that that’s the only way we could truly have or achieve them.

I am no mall rat. If it were at all possible I would avoid the mall. But, in this day and age, every store has a branch at the mall. Convenience.


So, when the unavoidable happens and I do find myself in a mall, I make it a point to check out the techie stuff the place has to offer, aside from the sports shops and bookstores, of course.

Stacks of newsprints, colored onion skin paper, loads of notepads, a box of Hope ballpens, a collection of JoyToy stationery, and a Silvereed portable typewriter are my memories of Christmas. 
These items helped me decide I should settle for a career in writing, and it all began one Christmas eve. That was when believing in the reality of Santa Claus is very much like believing in the Triune God.
