definitely, there's no skipping christmas this year ;)
a while back in my life i actually thought of skipping christmas and yes this idea was inspired by john grisham's book. before i went full blast with my boycott i realized there is no way i can get around to achieving my goal. this year i welcomed christmas with open arms but with a lot of innovations along the way like it's better if you just tell me what you want for a gift because i'm not santa so i'll never get a letter from you stating what you like. with me as long as you are my friend you will merit a gift, it won't matter if you've been naughty or nice;)or that i've started saying no to parties and have been suggesting small dinners with close friends instead =)december 1 was a banging season starter. there were many reasons to celebrate that day. initial stop was elaine and oging's wedding at san agustin church. as i said to my friends i'm a big fan of anything historical but those cobbled streets are too much of a hassle when you are in heels! next stop was buffet dinner at diamond hotel where grunchy, who is on a diet daw, ate two slices of steak or was it three? haha! last stop was at bonifacio high street for the birthday blowout of ther and rich where i had room for only one beer after that super heavy dinner.
the next day, we trooped to alabang to invade the cuenca bazaar. i'm not really a bazaar person in fact i was more happy bumping into friends i haven't seen in ages than going around and checking out the stalls. haha! it was tiring so we had crepes at cafe breton in westgate afterwards. food is always the answer to make one feel better, this is so me! we went back to civilization (hehe) for mass at don bosco and ther's birthday dinner at via mare, save the best (food) for last.
so you see, it's really beginning to feel a lot like christmas =)
