Yeeeyy! It's already December! My most awaited month of all! Why I really love the breeze of december? Do you guys love it too? are you still feeling the vibe of previous Decembers? Or nahh it's way different now.
Well, as of today! I want to share with you guys my thoughts about december. What are some sort of things that we usually do, as a Filipino. I hope other citizens would interact too! So that we could share some, ideas opinions on how we celebrate our christmas.
I want you to know that this is based on my own way of celebrating christmas with my family.
How we celebrate christmas?
past few years, we never tried to cook something special during 24th of december or they usually called "Noche buena". Please correct me if I'm wrong hehe. But during January 1, the new year. We try to strive looking for money, so that we could cook something even a 1kilo of spaghetti. Poor right? But, the important is, we're celebrating with happiness and without losing a significant other. I dunno this 2021, I know we can cook much more viands and dishes. I am hoping, but I guess it will happen. Thank you read.cash!!
Exchanging of gifts
Before, we really love to exchange gifts, but today we're not doing it for some reasons haha. I had some experiences of this, a funny one. I hope you're going to read it. Well, the reason is, if we're going to exchange gifts, with the same value usually 2$ and up. Nahhh, some are cheaters! It's not even close to 2$. Hahaha that's why we're not doing it anymore. However, giving of gifts is what we do. Even it is just a small gifts for our nephews. It would be a pleasure for them to have one.
Fire crackers/Fireworks
Eehhh... We haven't try to buy a fireworks at this age. Haha, I can't afford it sorry. Well, what we do is to create a noisy "lantaka", a pipe of metal or cans, and even pvc pipe will do. Which produces a loud sound! Bang!!! Through a spark of an electricity and a paint thinner. Do you wanna try it on your country? Since we didn't live in crowded place, a downtown perhaps. We're free to boom! Everywhere haha. Noise anywhere.
Closing thoughts:
I know this upcoming Christmas, there would be some people who aren't happy. Sometimes they're having a bad moment or losing something important. Some others are losing homes, just like our neighbour places. They just experienced, a very difficult situations, thier house was burnt. It maybe difficult for us to celebrate a painful and sorrowful Christmas but, please bear in mind that there is still hope. We should be courageous enough to face the problems and provide solutions to it. Just trust in yourself that you can do it! With a sincere heart of prayer. Let's be happy this Christmas! I'm prayin for you.

Thank you so much guys for reading this article. The days are really fast! Not knowing it's already december 3. We're growing old faster!! Noooo!! Haha, Godbless you guys! Have a merry Christmas.
Firework is still an unavoidable means of celebration in my Community despite series of warning by the force men. The other one you explained also is still very active. To some extent it produces a louder noise compared to some bangers. What a memory♥️
