There is just something everytime I smell the cold air during this time of the year. "-ber months" came and aside from typhoons coming in and out of the country, I bet everyone knows that Christmas is just around the corner.
That is why the other day, (like any other day), I do not have something to do, my mom asked me to put up our Christmas tree already. I think every home starts to dust off all the stuffs that used to symbolize Christmas already and checks if the lights are still working and the decorations are still in good shape to stay in their walls for at least 1-2 months. Like a child who is excited to play outside, I quickly separated my back from my bed and assembled the parts of the tree. :)
For me, this moment is the one I have always been waiting for every year. Well, aside for my birthday, my special someone's bday, Ginebra's game, my family member's birthday, valentine's day, and all the holidays. Tsk tsk. I think i have been waiting for so many days all year round. Anyway, I have always enjoyed putting up 'our' tree every year. I can not explain the happiness that I feel every time I will have the chance to put that tree into life once again in this time of the year.
I can not wait for Santa Claus' homecoming. :) But this year Christmas might be a different one. My special someone might leave the country this holiday season. :( First time after three years of being together. Aside from that, this year's Christmas will be counted for the years that I have not celebrated the holiday with my Dad. I know Christmas is for the family to celebrate together but for me and for my family, we're already used to this situation. Celebrating the holidays without my Dad. haay. For 21 years (because I am already 21 years old), I think there are only 2 or 3 Christmas' that I have my Dad with my as I open my presents from them. :'(
Enough of the drama. Christmas is a happy part of every one's life. It should be cherish. May everyone know the true meaning of Christmas.
