christmas in my heart...

it's now the first week of november and i still don't hear any christmas songs. some say i would start to hear them after halloween. but halloween's gone. where are the christmas songs? when am i going to hear them? maybe i'm used to hearing these in manila as early as september that i expect the same thing here. i know i'm not in manila anymore. but how much difference does it make?

some would say i am just over reacting but here's another thing. i am very excited to put up my christmas decors but i was told that people here start putting up theirs after thanksgiving day...and that means last week of november.

whew! i can't wait anymore. if they don't want to play christmas songs this "early", i can play my christmas CDs and listen to them till my ears ache. if they wait till thanksgiving day's over to put up their decors, i can start putting up mine now.

yes, i am in a foreign country... but i'm still a filipino.

yes, maagang mag-celebrate ng pasko ang mga pinoy...and it's one of the things that i miss here. i've been here in the US for 11 months now and i don't get homesick that much. this christmas ( which is my first time away from home), i'm sure i'll cry like a baby...lol

merry christmas, sis shine!!!

lucky you, richie! i have to spend two christmases away from home before i get to see my family again.

i know the song "pasko na sinta ko." it never fails to touch the sentimental part of me. gary v. really gave justice to it. thanks for the info about the story behind it.

merry christmas to you!!!

 Iba talaga sa Pinas. Talagang bonga.


within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.
