It’s a new month my people! I am super excited (and terrified at the same time that the year is almost over) because you know what October means? That’s right! it means that it is almost Christmas time.

If there’s one season that I love, it’s Christmas. Everything from the food, to the happy vibes and the get-togethers, brings me such happiness and warmth. I think I probably look forward to it more than even my own birthday.

Now I know you are probably thinking that I am crazy. That I should at least wait for November or even Halloween, but that will not stop my excitement. I know you are awaiting that period too when you leave the house for bread in the morning, only to return three days later, with no bread, (probably no money as well) but with a host of memories and a group of new friends that you made in Nanyuki, even though the shop you were headed to is deep in the outskirts of Kinoo.

I do have other plans for the month, but as I tend to those, you can also catch me spreading the holiday cheer. If anyone needs me, I will be adding elastic to my Christmas pants in preparation for the feasts. Happy almost Merry Christmas folks!

As I sign off, I will leave you with some wise words from one great poet of our generation:

Don’t ya buy me nothin’, ’cause I am feelin’ one thing
Your lips on my lips, that’s a merry merry Christmas

-Justin Bieber
