                  THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR

My favorite month is December. Why? It's because everything seems fine and peaceful. It's like there's no problem around at all. The colorful lights coming from the Christmas lights. The loud sound of Christmas song coming from the radio. The feeling is really nostalgic. The breeze of the air. Simbang Gabi is being held. The song of Willie Revillame and Jose Mari Chan is being played. People are giving gifts and money to each other. The nostalgic feeling of me as child that's getting excite of receiving gifts and going to caroling with childhood friends. Also, travelling to Manila, to get my dad at the airport. Everytime, December comes, I can't stop unlocking all my childhood memories. Maybe because I had a great and precious memories of December when I was a kid. December really gives me a crazy nostalgic feeling. And I just love that feeling.

December 2022 was fun. I completed the Misa de Gallo. They say if you complete the 9 days of that mass, then you can make a wish. I made a wish and that'll be a secret. It started from December 16 and ended in December 24. And for the Christmas eve, we ( mom, younger brother and me) celebrated it with my family's friend and also our neighbor. The whole night was fun. Exchange gifts, parlor games, dancing and singing, and also a lot of foods hehe. But I didn't take any photo since I was not in the mood, the whole night. I didn't participate in any games. But I can say that, that night was fun. On December 26th, my dad came home from Manila and followed by my older brother who came home at 28th. So that's the reason, why we decided to celebrate Christmas with our friends since it'll be boring to celebrate it with our own.

Overall, although I didn’t celebrate Christmas with the whole family, it was still fun and great. Because of our family’s friend. The gift giving and all. The greetings that I received. I really felt the spirit of Christmas.
