Christmas Vacation

Sa wakas, na-upload ko na din ang ilang highlight images ng bakasyon ko sa pinas. Just click here to view.

Setting aside the lungkot during my recent vacation .... I would probably say na masaya ang bakasyon ko. Walang katapusang kain at kwentuhan ang ginawa ko with my family. Most of the time laman ako ng karsada kasi I have to travel from Pampanga to Nueva Ecija kasi dito na lang kami nag-mall instead of Manila.

Christmas eve was filled with laughter and excitement especially after we finished the Noche Buena kasi we started to open the gifts na. Sobrang effort ang ginawa ko para lang maitago lahat ng regalo ko for them. Tapos nag-aaway pa sa apat na havaianas na hindi ko muna nilagyan ng name kung kanino mapupunta. The highlight of the gift giving was when JC opened his gift. Days before the Christmas, he has been bugging me for PSP, walang araw na hindi sya nagpabili sakin ng PSP, and I have to tell him na sobrang mahal yung pinapabili nya. Kaya naman nung nabuksan nya ang gift nya na PSP ang laman, para syang tumama sa Lotto.

We had a family outing din when we visited Ocean Park and Star City on December 26. Ito talaga ang maghapong kainan especially sa loob ng Star City na parang pakiramdam ko mura lahat ng tinda. From sago to french fries to sweet corn to local pizza to kakanin to noodles to etc etc etc ...... Namangha ang mga kapatid ko sa lakas ng power ko sa pagkain. We left Star City at 10PM, tapos kainan pa din sa North Express way.

We got to visit Manaoag church too. Pero this time, it was only my parents and cousin. Again, walang katapusang kain na naman ng kutchinta, putong puti, patupat, tupeg etc etc etc. My dad brought me to this very good restaurant in Urdaneta where we had lunch after our visit to church.

New Year was fun, JC bought few firecrackers (the safest ones) accompanied by the modified horn of my dad's truck. This is how we welcome new year and of course with abundant food on the dining table and wallet filled with money, as in pumutok ang wallet ko kasi pinuno ko talaga ng pera para isang taon akong may pang-gastos.
