Christmas Greetings

Dec 23 - Christmas Party @ Work

I was assigned to get a Visa gift card for everyone. I was accompanied by Nikko to Pavillions and we did some grocery too for the tequila (salt & lemon & shot glass). When we got back, lunch is ready. We had Kebab for lunch. Good food. Then we have to get back to work afterwards coz the party starts at 4pm. The party was organized by Archie, Edgar and myself. It's the first time we had a program coz usually we just eat out for dinner. Anyways, the program started with stories and greetings across diversity.. oh how we celebrate Christmas and Hannukah. It was followed by 5 special awards wherein I got 2.. =P It's the Most Affable and Most Creative Award (NAKS NAMAN!!! hehehe) It was done thru ballots and Archie was the one who tallied the results so I have no idea about it =P They were all teasing me na it's LUTO since I got 2 awards and our big boss got my name too for the Exchange gift. hehehe We had games too and our group lost coz I can't burst my balloon.. Teehee..

After the party, I went to Honeybaked Ham to pickup my order. It's a gift for Darwin's family. I went to Marie Callender afterwards to pickup the pie I ordered for our dinner. It was really foggy that night and I can't see the car that's in front of me... not even the freeway entrance.. I missed it twice =P

We had Thai for dinner and the banana pie from Marie Callender. Darwin gave me another gift for Christmas. It's a heart necklace with 3 diamonds =) It's looks so pretty.. Thanks.. It didn't stop there. He gave me another gift so I can open it on Christmas Day.. it's Charmed Season 2 DVD. The first gift is the Nike Shox... =P

Dec 24 -Noche Buena with my fam

I arrived at Bakersfield at 3ish. My cousins and I watched "The 40 year old Virgin". It's really funny.. There are familiar places too like the street of Ventura Blvd and Versailles in Encino that's near the eBay store..

Went to church for the midnight mass then we had Noche Buena. Justin can't get enough of Mario Kart DS. I saw him sitting at one corner playing the game. =P When it's time to open the gifts, the kids were so excited. It's cute to see their reaction. I guess I was like that when I was a kid.








Dec 25 - Family Christmas Party and Tita Tina's Birthday

When I woke up, I don't feel good coz I have muscle pains and I have a fever. I took some pills and it helped a lil bit. We watched the Lakers game. Took a shower and visitors arrived at 5ish. Had dinner. Chat for awhile. Played poker. Then I slept at 11pm coz I really dont feel good.

Dec 26 - Home sweet home

I arrived in LA at 6ish. We're supposed to go to the mall to return somethin but I'm so tired that I need to rest first. Oh, earlier that day, I bought a Rampage faux sherpa boots from Gottschalks coz I got a $25 gift card from my godmother (yeah, I still get gifts from my godparents.. hehehe) and there's no Gottschalks in LA. Damn, I got a really good deal coz it's original price was $80 and I got it only for $40... then less the gift card.. So, I only paid $15 for the shoes.. =P
