Not The Same Without You

This Saturday marks the start of December. Next thing we know, we’ll be counting down for Christmas using the fingers in our hands.
I kinda miss the way we celebrate Christmas when my gramps were still alive. Crowded house, fun stories, noisy kids, lots of food. But ever since they passed away, the families had no reason to gather together and chose to celebrate on their own.
I told myself last year that I’ll make an effort to make this season more merrier for my family. Sadly, I don’t really know how to do that especially now that my sister is abroad. It seems that as we grow old, Christmas becomes less merrier.
Click Flick: The dog is cute in that santa outfit. Plus, the Christmas lights in the background adds up to the holiday feel. Ironically, the photo’s gloomy tone and low depth of field draws us to the dog’s sad expression.
*sigh* same here iRonnie….miss ko din lalo ang brothers and sister ko dyan naman especially during Christmas season…but I do try to celebrate them in my heart everyday na lang.
ayaw kasi nila dito eh.
hmmm, gusto ko na tuloy umuwi…pero next year pa sched namin….sabagay lapit na nga pala 2008
P.S. very thematic yung doc pic na napili mo.

Same here, Ron. I’m keeping it simple. I miss home but as usual, “ET Call Home” is what makes Xmas meaningful, at least for me.

K,
and with that, we cant thank technology enough for coming up with phone lines and internet calls.

I always found Christmas & New Year a bit artificial!
I try to enjoy life the whole year !
