Post-Christmas

am back here at work already, yet still feeling that holiday fever. can't seem to shake away the holiday feeling yet. oh well, well... back to reality na nga.

so here's my post-Christmas post- pics from our staffhouse party by the pool:

happy Christmas everyone!

Christmas 2007

Here's wishing a blessed Christmas to one and all!

Daddy's Here

daddy just got back from guillen, china last night. we met up with him for dinner tonight.


he had a great but very cold visit there. he had been texting us that the cold just seems to creep right up into him even with three layers of clothes he had on. my dad is not used to cold climate. all of us in the family aren't. my kuya and i would be trembling wrapped up in our blanket when we get to be billeted in a hotel for visits to other places. perhaps it's just esmuky who is the most likely to get used to the cold easily. after all, he's got a thicker layer of insulation on him than kuya and me. daddy regretted not having taken with him both pairs of thermal pants and jackets that kuya had borrowed for him. he only took one pair. so there, he felt really, really cold.


their host had invited three of them auditors to some fancy places and he was quite excited taking pictures. although he would rather stay in the warm room at the hotel than go wandering outside in the cold. a couple of days before coming back home, the three of them asked to be transferred to a warmer city so they can still have a little time exploring outside in the not so cold climate.


they went out and looked for pasalubong that they can take back home. daddy however had to carefully handcarry a delicately designed porcelain vessel which he bought for mommy. mabuti na lang hindi nabasag. we had to look for a more appropriate packaging for it when he got here since he still had to bring it to dumaguete then finally to iligan.


i also have seven more boxes for him to take home to mommy for christmas giveaways. i'm having them sent through him since i won't be going home this Christmas. i'll be spending my vacation with kuya.


i am trying to see how it would feel being away from home on Christmas vacation. i just know it would feel so different.

Party in the Haus

we have already set the schedule for the christmas party at the staffhaus. and guess what, it's gonna be a formal affair.... wow, kakaiba 'to. sa dinami-dami na nang na-conceive naming themes for the parties that we throw here, ngayon lang kami mag-f-formal.



makapagsimula na nga maghanap ng mahihiraman ng dress. hehe..

Last Christmas at Monde

parang ang daming party na kelangan puntahan this year. there's no telling, baka last christmas ko na ito at Monde. sigh, how sad naman. nag-i-invite na naman sina jay at ricky. oo nga pala, parang tradition na for staffhaus pipol to raid their house pag dating ng pasko. that's why the Lord has continued to bless such hardworking people like this couple - so that they can share their blessings with guys like us. hahaha!


but just thinking about leaving is making me so sad already. however, dreams have to be pursued. life must go on.


there's something that's pulling on me so strongly.


Lord guide my every step. let your angel show me the way.

Pasko na Naman

sarap mag-Brothers burger. nabundat ako dun a. ang laki pala ng burger. nagulat ako. sanay ako sa kakarampot na papaliit nang papaliit na shrimp sandwich sa wendy's. hehe...


eniweyz, here's the lyrics of a favorite christmas song of mine. makes me long for christmas. buti na lang disyembre na. am counting the days....




Perfect Christmas

My idea of a perfect Christmas

is to spend it with you

in a party or dinner for two

anywhere will do

celebrating the yuletide season

always lights up our lives

simple pleasure are made special too

when they’re shared with you


Looking through some old photograph

of faces and friends we'll always remember

watching busy shoppers rushing about

in the cold breeze of december

sparkling lights all over town

childrens carol in the air

by the christmas tree

a shower of stardust on your hair


[CHORUS]

I can’t think of a better christmas

than my wish coming true

and my wished is that you’ll let me spend

my whole life with you


[Instrumental]
