BuzzZzzzz!!!
there's nothing much to do here in the office today (actually as in nothin'). I feel so bored and damn sleepy.... I can't find anything else to do, that's why here i am updating my blog...
it's already winter here in Dubai... Coldness starts to fill the air... OhHhhh, Christmas is really fast approaching... Oh my, this is my 3rd Christmas away from home (soooo sad)... still wondering when we'll be home for Christmas... I do missed the fancy lanterns along the streets, the Christmas tree that i personally decorate, the colorful lights that you will see anywhere you go and of course the notche buena of our family... oh, that makes me miss home... not to forget the simbang gabi with matching puto bumbong... hayyyyy... ang sarap magpasko sa pinas... there's no place like home...
on the other hand, I am merely happy, since I will be spending Christmas with my Hubby........ the fact that we are both far from home, we'll make it sure to enjoy our Christmas together... but how to make it more exciting and surprising for my dearest hubby?!? well, i have to do a lot of thinking... nevertheless, i am sure he will be happy simply by spending it together...
Christmas in this country simply pass as an ordinary day... wHy?!? coz.....
no Christmas off/holiday (dahhh!)
no Christmas lanterns & lights along the streets (so dry)
no puto bumbong on the sidewalks (so kaka!!!)
no caroling's (so dull)
no Christmas songs (unless you played it at home)
no office annual Christmas party (boring)
see how lifeless we spend Christmas here!?! to be fair, you may find Christmas Trees inside the malls and sometimes be lucky to find Santa sitting right next to it...
still, in a little way there's the spirit of Christmas...
For real, Christmas is the time of giving...
no matter how you celebrate it
no matter how expensive your decorations may be
no matter how much tasty food you have on the table
no matter how gorgeous your clothes are
what matters most is the love and happiness that you will share...
Keep on counting the days before Christmas... ZAppPppP... the next time you wake up it's already CHRISTMAS...
