My Christmas Tree

December 3rd, 2010

Christmas is in the air once again and the thought of it makes me festive and everyday starting the first week of December seems like a busy day always… preparing things for the upcoming parties, scheduling lunch and dinner with friends, shopping for christmas decors, and foods to serve during the occasion and most of all the gift giving.

All these activities are very popular once a year and that is during the Christmas season. Decorations will never be complete without the christmas tree at the corner of the living room where the whole family will gather and exchange each others gifts.

I dream of a 7 ft christmas tree full of christmas balls and different colors and sizes of decorations all over it.  But I think it’s not yet time for me to have it yet, so I settled with our old 4 ft christmas tree which the family used for over 5 years. I know my christmas tree is still beautiful especially with lots of gifts underneath that we can share to everybody.

Hhhmm… Maybe I can also try a live christmas tree someday. :) Merry Christmas!

Christmas is near! Joy to the world!

Listening and watching this video makes me excited for Christmas! This is one of the best and joyful performances of Mariah… i just love her voice and her songs. Though it was performed 4 years ago, watching it reminds me that christmas is fast approaching!

I am planning to decorate our home with Christmas decors this weekend and bring out our old christmas tree, clean up our Santa Claus and install christmas lights inside and outside the house… but hmm, something is missing.. one thing I wish to have is a complete nativity set. I hope I can acquire one this christmas.

As early as the 1st day of September, christmas songs can be heard anywhere… malls, radio, television and even officemates singing carols in the background. How time flies and Christmas is near! Some big malls and restaurants are putting up christmas decorations already. I can already see shoppers shopping christmas decorations and when on the streets – streetchildrens are singing christmas carols outside the car window. Christmas is indeed on the air and singing “joy to the world” makes this special occasion a day to look forward to. I wish and pray that the whole world will be joyous and blessed this Christmas.

Lunch Out… Dine Out…

December 22nd, 2008

Part of the holiday rush is to schedule parties left and right. Today, I meet my friend Joan for lunch in Shakey’s Pizza at The Walk and then join the Web-OSS department for dinner in one of the famous barbeque grill in Cebu which is the AA’s BBQ Restaurant.

It’s a full-meal-day for me… well, I don’t mind my diet today for I just want to enjoy with the people I want to be with in a festive occasion like this. Having this kind of activities is one way of expressing the Christmas spirit… like it is important for me to meet my friends and greet them holiday wishes personally and be able to exchange gifts with them while enjoying the food… It’s so fun being with friends in a long ordinary table enjoying sumptuous foods and exchange stories and laughter while Christmas songs play on air.

What I miss so badly today is joining my relatives for a simple dinner in commemoration of my Lola’s death anniversary, so sad I miss this occasion.

It’s 3 days before Christmas and I wish you all a blessed and happy Christmas! Happy Holidays to everyone!
