Christmas is about presents, gifts, celebrations, love giving and groping someone under the mistletoe. But as adults, we would always go back to the days of our childhood when Christmas was purely fun and happiness. Those times when we don’t have to worry about bills and responsibilities; heart aches and life’s drama or how on earth will we be able to make our budget work for holiday shopping while juggling other expenses to support our ADL’s.
That’s when we just want to wish one thing this Christmas: To go back in …

The Misa de Gallo, bibingka and puto bumbong
Kris Kringle and unwanted angel figurines
Carolers singing “… teng-kyu teng-kyu ambabaet ninyo! teng-kyu!”
Videoke with old friends and all sorts of parties happening left and right.
Divisoria shopping, congested malls and havaianas’ queue reaching the next floor.
Kids you don’t know showing-up in your doorstep.

Then you will find yourself the next morning after christmas, staring in to nothingness, with an empty pocket, plotting a kidnapping modus operandi. Afterall kids are then richer than the tax payers.
Nothing beats Christmas in the Philippines!
