Holidays!

Christmas only comes once and it is the most wonderful time of the year. I remember back days, I would start counting as it head towards the magical day.

This days, weeks before Christmas is stressful day.The gift shopping and heavy traffic! but no matter what It’s time to share and express our gratitude to everyone that has crossed our lives from the slightest of instances to the greatest of purposes.

We give gifts because we wish to show appreciation for another person. Whether or not you receive back or if your gift is of great monetary value. For us as a christians, it can be a reflection of the gift given by God to man, which is at the heart of the celebration as we know it.

perfect for my mama dogs:)
for my 3 little niece:)
ready to be sent back home and tomorrow it will be under our Christmas tree:)
 
Yes! I'm done! it took me 4 visits to the mall to finish gift shopping for my family:)
now time to create my own wish list so they can start sending gifts to me..lol
 
But then again remember that Happiness is not about having the hottest gadget,
 sleekest new vehicle or receiving a luxe gift.

Happiness and joy are about treasuring family and friends and relationships.
 
Life is Good!
 
~Merry Christmas~

    "Happiness and joy are about treasuring family and friends and relationships" -
    so true! we often forget what's more important beyond gift giving.

    Merry Christmas!

    ang dami mong pinamili! Meron ba para sa kin dyan? haha

    You're right, Christmas is not about material things, it's about family, friends and relationships... and on top of all that... it's about God!

Happy Halloween

 Halloween here in the Philippines is not like the Halloween in the Western countries. Although it’s a big holiday (comparable to Christmas here), we celebrate it in a different manner. Halloween in the Philippines lasts from the eve of October 31 (or even before this day) to November 2. Due to our strong Catholic background, Nov. 1 and Nov. 2 are spent remembering our dead loved ones and these dates will usually find most of us in one place only: the cemetery or the memorial park. We don’t celebrate it with pumpkins or trick-or-treats (although this Western tradition is sometimes practiced in some families / subdivisions here). We celebrate it through candles, flowers, prayers and a visit to the cemetery. You might think we have a very boring Halloween here. I mean, cemeteries, graves, prayers, etc. make it look like a serious affair. Not so. Spending Halloween in the cemeteries is a fun event. It’s like a mini-reunion for families and friends alike, a chance to have fellowship with

Starbucks Planner 2012- time to ingest gallons of caffeine!

I don’t have a problem with caffeine. I have a problem without caffeine…oh yes! I’m a self confessed coffee-holic. Last year, I suffered from gastritis due to over consumption of coffee but it didn’t stop me, my blood type is coffee and caffeine isn’t a drug, it’s a vitamin.:) So I switched to decaffeinated coffee (decaf). This coffee has less caffeine or 97% of its caffeine has been removed. It works with me. I no longer suffer from inflammation… goodbye antacids. I must admit that I love Starbucks,  (aaminin ko to, na-eenjoy ko talaga yung kape ng Starbucks bakit ba…social climber..OO ako na..hahaha.) so I often spend my rest day at WalterMart Makati Starbucks with a good book. Since it’s the nearest branch at di msyado maraming otaw…di magulo. Apart from their coffee, I’m a big fun of the yearly planner. Not for me but for my sister.  She has been receiving this gift from me for 3 years in a row na. sosyal at katapos back to 3 in 1 brown coffee na ulit...lol So by tomorrow, C
