How we spend Christmas

Christmas eve,,.. Who could not know the traditional NocheBuena,, or the traditional Christmas eve Feast......

The Menu for this year's Nochebuena::

Just done cooking Spaghetti and Black Sambo... though I think the chocolate part is more of a pudding... hahahaha.... nagkulang ang gelatin....


Mom will make fruit salad. We bought the infamous Fiesta Ham. Finally, to satisfy my sweet tooth craving for Christmas, mom ordered my all time favorite homemade Moist Chocolate Cake. Yuuummm
I'm on a not-so-strict DIET. hahaha... no, really. I'm restraining myself this year.... as much as I would want to eat the infamous Lechon, Ice cream, Chantilly bars, and Leche Flan... I agonizingly abdicate myself from those cravings....

One thing I realized is that,, it's not advisable to remember something that is supposed to have long been forgotten especially if you're holding a sharp object, particularly on circumstances where you're chopping something... hahahaha


Things I remember while mincing garlic & onion....
I can't remember the time when I learned how to cook Spaghetti... Basta,, all I can remember is bata pa lang ako I'm always assisting my mom in the kitchen,,, she'll instruct me with what to put and other stuffs, then yun nah... na.pick-up ko na... People who would visit our house would often tell me "kabalo diay xa ug luto (she knows how to cook?!?)" When I was 10 I already know how to cook Pinakbet, afritada, and other stuffs.... xayang eh! ngayon lang na.uso yung kiddie MasterChef.... malay nyo naman diba?! hehehe... I can remember cooking Pinakbet in class, Home economics ata yung subject... but that's another story....

Well, taking up culinary entered my mind...reason ko why I didn't take up culinary:: "para saan pa?!? Culinary is just the basics,,. Kung alam mo yung basics of cooking, a little bit of experiment, plus the touch of art--> ayun! Looks like 4yrs of studying nah.... Pero I think cooking is a gift,, yup natututunan xa, pero iba pa rin if sarili mo... yung bang you go beyond the recipe book... mag.experiment ka,, and yung kahit hindi minimeasure alam mo na tama nah....

No wonder I can do a little bit of everything, but has no best at something.... Basta alam ko ng konti, ayos nah! yun lang naman yung kailangan....

Back... wow! I managed not to ask for anything.... hoooorrraaayyy!!! During christmas kasi I'm accustomed to halfheartedly joking but more like asking for christmas presents.... and whattya know,, there are really people na kakagat sa jokes mo.... The first time, the time when I still have this thing called guilt, syempre I returned it by giving something back..... 2nd time, Idk if guilt is still with me (Panawagan: guilt kung nanjan ka pa, magparamdam ka na..... or kung wala ka na,, pls naman bumalik ka na!!! Maawa ka sa kanila.... sakin ayos lang na wala ka).... 3rd time?? hahahaha.... 3rd time's the charm ika-nga.... No mas na for me!!!

Well,, exception naman yung nephew ko diba..... Nephew nga.... exception yon!! family related!! hahahaha.... ok! Fine! Kasi namaaaaaann!!! He said he's in *churva* and it's christmas... wait.. ano ba maganda doon... *google-mode* kakatamad naman mag-google... I think there's nothing significant there.... plus not to mention he's thrifty... super thrifty! It runs in the blood (I think).... Kung sa bisaya pa "INOT" Grabeh ka INOT!!! So I doubt he'll bring something, not in a million years!! kaya safe na conscience ko.... pero sana lang hah,,, Lord kung meron man, sana wag chocolates!! Sumo na lord!! oh diba, reklamador?!?

Anyway,, this entry is about how we spend christmas nga diba.... how we spend Christmas or should I say CHRISTMASES?? Ganito lang kami forever... Mass-Nochebuena-Tingin ng Fireworks- tulog.... There's just 3 of us plus Odeza (our beloved dog).... oh diba,, what do you expect?!?... tanong nyo kung nauubos naman yung food?? xempre naman! hahaha.... lolz... FYI... hindi po solo kong inuubos.... nauubos poh xa coz marami-rami din pong bwisita... este, bisita na dumarating kina-umagahan..... ano pah?!? eh di NAMAMASKO!! hahahaha.... goodbye na naman old gamits ko.... Pero ok lang,,, Christmas is about giving ^_^

December 6, 2011

Dear Blog,

hahahahaha..... sagwa tii!!!! Anyway, since nasimulan ko nah, might as well continue this ka.echosan.... hahahaha..... or I feel like writing something today.... Enjoy my short story ^_^

Tuesday, She is on her way to school,,.... usual routine nya,, meaning late na naman as usual, pero since nakalimutan nya ang wrist watch nya dahil sa pagmamadali, wala siyang ka.alam-alam sa oras... She took a jeepney in going to school, syempre marami siyang nakasabay, jeepney nga eh... But as usual, keber siya sa mga tao,,. She decided to scan her notes, until she felt uneasy. She stopped reading and just when she diverted her gaze away from her notes, their eyes met. He's also studying at the same school as her, lives in the same village as her but never did she knew him until this fated day. Even if she didn't study his face, she can't miss his uniquely entrancing eyes. His eyes are really something.

Suddenly a thought came into her mind; "Tuesday," the thought made her feel excited, then she said to herself "Sana pansinin nya ako =P If he'll say 'hi' it'll be a sign that we'll become good friends, plus I need to test my hypothesis." She didn't expect to arrive 5 min. before the time, when she entered the campus she looked around hoping to see the person she's anxious of testing her hypothesis to, but there was no sign of this person. She decided to wait a little bit longer, when suddenly she caught sight of another person. Then it suddenly hit her, she forgot she'll also see this other person. She was overwhelmed with the thought of testing her hypothesis that she forgot this other person. The other person, who's one of the reasons why she's look forward to this particular day of the week, but that was a long time ago. Things change, people change, and her finding other reasons is part of the cycle which we call life.

After agonizing minutes of waiting, her human specimen finally came. She stopped whatever she was doing that time hoping to get the sign she's been wishing for but suddenly that sign was given to another person. Dismayed, she got back to what she was doing and uttered in her mind "How stupid of me to think it's possible. It'll never happen." Her specimen even started a light conversation with another person, someone she know, and as much as she would like to barge in she restrained herself with the thought that she already had enough embarrassment for the week. She let out a big *sigh* still focused on what she was doing when suddenly "PPPPSSSSSSTTTTT" the sound caught her attention, and voila!! It was her specimen!!! Looking right back at her,... she tried to compose herself and smiled casually,, little did he know that she already felt an adrenaline rush,,, it was the sign she has been waiting for. She wanted for them to have some conversations again but didn't know how to begin, it was the same for him. He thought she was busy and might probably be disturbing her, so he did what other people would do in instances like that.... embarrassed, he walked away.

Hindi man sila nakapag-talk dahil sa kadahilanang nagpanggap ang gaga na busy xa,, but that "psssstttt" and smile was enough to uplift her spirit for this day, it already made her day ^_^
