Spirit of the Holidays

Hayyy at last I already finished putting up the Christmas lights outside on top of our roof. Hirap naman kasi dito sa America, everything is self-service. Back then in Pinas, whenever I wanted to put something up or do something like a lil carpentry or akyat sa punong mangga, I have "Baldad" ,our all-around houseboy, to do that for me. Isang tawag lang eh he'll do it na. But as I said, that was then. Now... I do things on my own, helo?! hindi ko naman maaasahan ang dad kong umakyat at magkabit ng lights sa bubungan namin kasi naku mas maselan at maarte pa yun sa akin hehehe. My dad and my 8yr old bro are the only boys in the family soo sino pa nga ba ang gagawa kundi ako, at me only.

Pero ok lang, I like learning about life more pag hands-on. I'm more of a doer than a speaker, and I think I have the patience to learn the parts missing when I still had yayas, bodyguards, houseboys and maids around. Kaya kung tuwing uuwi ako ng Pinas, nasho-shock sila sa mga kilos ko. Kala nila lil miss princesa ang aking e-aasal kasi nga daw galing states pero instead mas naging sanay ako sa mga gawaing bahay o maski pag-ayos na lang ng kama ko... inshort cowgirl, kahit saan mo ihagis sa mundo, makakaadapt at matuto rin.

But sometimes, I do miss the princess life I had way back, lalo na pag I get so busy with work and school that I can never have the time to clean up even just my room. hehehe. Eh ako pa naman ms. neat freak ako, gusto laging organize at kung hindi, I can't concentrate. Sanayan lang talaga.

Anyway, I'm so proud of my work outside on our lawn, actually it's our first Christmas na finally we had the time to put up Christmas lights...or should I say I had the time, hehehe. Hmmm...what else to do? Ah right, off to writing Christmas cards naman para walang masayang na oras. Maski I'm not feeling so Christmasee this season, I still want to make an effort to bring out holiday spirits to others, maski para sa kanila na lang tong mga ginagawa ko ok na para sa akin :-)
