I arrived in the Philippines exactly on Christmas day. When we landed I started to get emotional when they played "I'll be coming home for Christmas", it brought me to the state of confusion once again. I am in the Philippines to spend my holidays with my family and I am so thankful coz I got this opportunity to spend it with them...i may say, it is one of the few good effects of recession--most offices in Singapore encouraged their employees to go on vacation leave this holidays for the reason of cost cutting.
I know everyone's excited about my arrival, at least my presence would somehow fill the absence of my mother who will spend her christmas in US again. Since I arrived on Christmas day, we didn't make it to the traditional Christmas day celebration on my mother's side in Mindoro where we would spend the whole day at my tito's beach resort, details on how we celebrate it is written on Kiko's site. He didn't make it as well for he is in UK now. Anyway, we spent the day at my tito ned's house in Tondo. First time in my life to celebrate Christmas with my Ordenes' family, because we usually would celebrate with them during new years and this time it's different again. Grabe andami talaga nabago ngayong 2008, well i learned that we should always be prepared for changes, though it would mean pain and heartaches..sometimes we just need to get used to it, as long as we don't cause any harm to others we will have a blessed life.
