December is here! So fast isn't it? I'm always asked this since the last week of November, are you excited for Christmas? I'm sure most of you will say yes because who didn't? Christmas is the most awaited holiday especially for those working. 13th month, bonus and other Christmas giveaways are waving ad employees are happy with that. Aww, I'm excited to be a working one but of course, that is next year since our graduation is next year.

This Christmas what gift are you looking forward to? Or are you expecting any gifts? Do you still know your monitos and monitas? Or are you the one who gives a gift to your godchild?

Everyone is excited about Christmas. Look at their Christmas decorations inside and outside their houses. Isn't it captivating? It gives us the vibes of Christmas already. The different lights of Christmas lights are colorful which gives us joy. There are places such as city halls, parks, malls and another wide area where people put Christmas decorations like big Christmas tree, parol(lantern) and Christmas lights. Truly, Christmas is fast approaching and now it's the first day of December. November bid its goodbye to us already.

What do you feel now? Are you excited?

As for me, I have mixed feelings this December. Excitement, nervousness, frustrations but joy is more evident to me. Do you know why I felt these feelings?

This December many things will happen especially in my studies. Our thesis defense schedule is on Monday, December 6, 2021. The final examination schedule is from December 13-16. And then the completion of our pending activities is until December 19, December 20 is our break. See how hectic my schedule in December is.

Also, on December 19, 2021, we decided to baptize our baby. And now I am planning about his christening and I am planning to just make my invitation, I already created an invitation before during my debut so I guess I still know-how. Or if you have talent on this can you lend a hand? Hehe, I will be so much thankful for that. I need to write more articles so that we have an additional budget since my partner got absent for a week because of his teeth so his salary was deducted.

However, thinking of Christmas day and my baby's christening makes my heart excited. I do hope my baby's baptism doesn't move, I want to baptize him as soon as possible. I just want a simple celebration.

Do you know that I have more than 10 godchildren? So every Christmas I need to buy gifts for each of them or if I haven't bought one I will just give them money. Those are my friends, neighbours and classmates kids. They get me as ninang of their child even though I don't have a work yet and still a student hehe. However, whenever I don't have any to give them, they will understand it.

As for me, I don't remember anymore my godparents because since I turned 4 years old we moved here to Manila. All my godparents are in our province, they are safe to me whenever Christmas comes haha! So, I didn't experience roaming around our barangay seeking my godparents during Christmas. I just go with my sisters and their godparents just give me some money.

When we are getting older, we are shy already about asking for aguinaldo. My sisters now didn't go to their godparent's house and their godparents just went to our house to give something for them.

Gifts

Who doesn't want a gift? I believe all of us wants to receive a present. I love giving gifts to my family and partner. I have an advanced gift for my sister as she asked me to buy her a dress and sandals. So I ordered online and last week the items arrived, she's very happy with that. I will share a separate article in regards to this. Even though I seldom receive a gift I am thankful because seeing my family happy and no one of us have sick is already a gift to me from above and that's considered a precious gift for me.

This is just a random article about what I feel this December. I'm thinking of writing an article recap but I don't expect that I published many since I didn't write every day. Still, I want to commend myself for being able to write an article despite my situation.
