On the eve of Christ's birth

You know the papers are right when they report on the good economy, that people are indeed spending more. It was only on the eve of Christmas that I had a half-day off, giving me the chance to send my camera in for repair at the Canon Service Centre in Harbourfront. When I walked over to Vivocity, it was like another Orchard Road where you could hardly walk more than 5 steps without pausing to let others move aside. Even with the intention of doing last minute shopping, I simply couldn't figure out what, and therefore didn't. After all, why succumb to the commercialisation and profiteering from materialistic goods when Christmas is all about welcoming Christ?
