Enough of your jibber jabber! Here's my story...
My Journal = my life, my thoughts, my poetry.
Christmas family tradition...
Every Christmas eve, my parents spend the whole day making food for that night (that's tonight!) mostly filipino food like lumpia, pancit, chicken adobo, tinola and sinigang (i spelled that right, right?) and in the evening, all of that food is just put in my kitchen and we just have a "At home" buffet. We eat what we want, when we want... it basically starts around dinner time... for us, its like 6:30... from then until midnight, we play games and listen to music and just have a great time...

if we were in the philippines, NONE of these things would take place inside, unless someone has to use the bathroom. EVERYTHING takes place outside, and we blow up firecrakers and eat barbeque too. We have small races from say, from our house to five houses down... we play hide-and-seek not just outside, but around the whole street and all of the other people that live down the street... Its is just soo fun... and i also guess that the most popular sport in the Philippines is badminton... we play that in the middle of the road, too.

If we have a big party... it doesn't end until the next morning... basically no one sleeps that night. and then like, 30 seconds befor emidnight, we all sstare at the clock and countdown until the clock strikes 12.... right we it does, we rip open our presents and just have fun with them!!! blaugh Unlike other families, they wait till the morning of Christmas to open their presents... all we have to do is wait till midnight on Christmas eve...

I'll be adding more in this entry as time passes by tonight...

Man, this sucks... and earlier, we all went to the movies and watched "A nativity story" I didn't even see the previews... but anyway it was an okay movie... and no one's online right now so I can't chat with anyone at the moment and I'm seriously bored because on TV they're just playing that Ice Age movie over and over again...
