*Lead Image source* `|#389N13-12.18.2022 @8:48 PM|` ________________________ ***"Have you ever miss the old time kind of Christmas you had? What are the certain things or situations or scenarios you remembered that made you miss it?"*** Hello my lovely and handsome read.cash family! Blessed Sunday to all. Its seven days left to go before the awaited day of the month. Are you ready to celebrate it? Have you prepared all the stuffs needed and intended for that awaited event? I bet, most of you are well-prepared now. Me? Nah... I guess, I don't have to prepare much for I've been used to it already. And the main reason is that, I don't feel the coming of Christmas Day. How I wish to go back to in time. I missed my old time kind of Christmas. *(Deep Sighing)* As what I have remembered back in my elementary years, when "Ber" months started, my parents will start to put some in nails in the edge parts of our roof to hang the Christmas Lanterns together with the Christmas Lights.

They will provide some money to buy it in town, together with the Christmas CDs. At school, we will be instructed by our teachers to submit a Christmas Lanterns made from indigenous or recycled materials as our project and as our entry for the *"Parol Making Contest."* Along the process, I will just watch my papa make it for me. He will use "ginit" from the coconut and just put some glitters as for the design or ornament. I never won in that contest but I am very much grateful for the effort that my papa exerted to made that one. More than that, I missed attending Christmas parties at school. Those times had exchanging gifts and the games. I enjoyed it a lot.

Another thing I missed about my old time kind of Christmas was when my papa will lit a firecrackers, especially when New year comes, as well as the Fireworks display prepared by one of our neighbors. More than that, I missed joining my friends in the caroling sessions where there was this time that we were chased by a dog. Lol.

One more thing, I missed receiving gifts from my godmothers and godfathers. Aigoo! Kay tagal na nung last time na nakatanggap ako ng Aguinaldo from them. I think they just forget about it or talagang hindi na nila inisip pa ang magbigay. *"Chariss."* (Laughing)

________________________ *I missed all of that. But what else I can do?* ***No more Lanterns and Christmas Lights. No more Christmas Parties. No more Exchanging Gifts. No more Aguinaldos from Ninong and Ninang. No more Firecrackers and Fireworks.*** *And* ***no more "Pangangaroling."*** *But despite all of that, what matters to me now is that I will be able to spend that special day with my family and loved ones. Of course, Rhed is part of already.* How about you? ________________________ That ends this blog. ***Thank you for reading!*** ________________________ `With all sincerity and a pure heart, I humbly give thanks to all of you my read.cash family.
