"Simbang Gabi"

Last night was the last mass for the “Simbang Gabi” and I attended the mass together with my wife and my two kids Vetvet and Botbot. “Simbang Gabi” is celebrated for 9 days, I mean 9 nights, to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. They said that if you finished the 9 masses your wish will be granted. Due to my work I only attended the 1st and the last mass…but alas, my 4 year old Vetvet did it. Even if she had a class the following day and it also coincided with her exams she never miss attending the “Simbang Gabi”. After the mass we have our Noche Buena. Unfortunately, my three children was not here, they were in Pampanga with their Ima (Grandmother).

Christmas Party!!!

December is the month when we celebrate Christmas Season. It is the time where everyone attends Christmas Party. Last December 17 we went to Tagaytay together with my co-managers to celebrate our Christmas Party. The place where we spend the party was “Buon Giorno!” which means “Good Day”. The place was so cozy…the smell of the air is so soothing…so cold. It is located over viewing the Taal Volcano but due to fog the scene is quite cloudy. Nevertheless, we have a great meal that night, many jokes and great laughs. I received a present place in a big box from my compadreng Leo which up to now I still don’t know what’s inside.

Merry Christmas to all my Friends all over the world
