Holiday Vacation

     

We spend our Christmas in Pampanga every year and New Year here in QC. But this holiday vacation, we got to spend both only in Pampanga. It was our (me and my sibs) first time to celebrate our New Year there. I must admit, it's better there. :)

I almost thought that we won't spend our holiday there, kamusta naman kasi, 23 na noon, di pa kami nakakaalis. We left at around 4pm on the 24th, and yes of course, it's traffic. Before we left, I texted my dad that we won't be able to come for some reasons. It's obvious in his text messages that he's very sad. On our way there, we're still texting him, that we'll be spending our Christmas at my aunt's house, that they can't also come, that we promise to spend our next Christmas there, blah blah blah. We got there by 9pm, and my tita texted him that she's already there (alone) and she needs them to fetch her by boat. We hid in his store and surprised him! Hehe. Hmm, that's almost what he/they did to me on my 18th birthday. Haha!

I am so happy that we spent our Christmas altogether (of course, we are all). :) It was fun as always. 2007's Christmas was different, not better, just different. Last year's was missing something that I can't figure out what and I'm sure, almost everyone in the world, or at least in the country, felt the same way too. But then again, happiness is an option and we opted for it. :)

 

 

We were supposed to go back home on the 26th but they insisted that we should stay there to celebrate our New Year with them and our dad since mom's not yet home. i just can't do anything but to stay, of course, I also want to. Hehe. I texted my mom if we could spend our New Year in Pampanga and she allowed us. :)

This new year's eve is better than last year's. Last year, we're not with our mom nor with our dad. Sure we have lots of food for media noche and fireworks/firecrackers, but we're not that happy because we were not with those we love the most (our parents). Kahit may krisis, kapag kasama mo ang mga mahal mo sa buhay, magiging masaya pa rin kayo. :)

This holiday vacation brought me lots of realizations, fun times, and bonding moments with my dad, my sibs and my relatives. I'm glad we've stayed there for the whole vacation. I've missed a lot here in QC and surely, I'll be missing a lot there in Pampanga. Vacation's really over and I have to face my life here again. But I'm looking forward to Valentine's day because we'll be visiting there again to celebrate my Lola's birthday. Yay! I'm excited! :D
