As of today, there's only one month left till Christmas. I'm not a Christian, nor an avid consumer, so it's not a tradition that really applies to me! Yet I'm forced to venture out into the busy malls and shopping centres to try and find gifts for my loved ones - which itself is always a challenge. What the hell am I supposed to buy them? I used to resort to buying gift vouchers, but vouchers are boring and get old fast. I'd much rather buy someone a gift spontaneously, to surprise them, rather than being forced to by a dumb tradition. Plus my bank account ain't looking too hot right now.
