A lot of parents in our school have been asking me about the details of their Christmas Party. They are now all excited about because they wanted to prepare for it. I told them that we will be having a separate party for each level and the more they were excited upon hearing it. At 4:00 PM, I was so surprised that they were still there outside talking about the party. They talked about their presentations, their gifts and etc. Listening to them talking has made me also excited for the upcoming Christmas Party. I hope we will all have fun.

Last November 25 was my birthday. I was excited about it because I have made plans to treat my students that day. On the 24th, I went to the grocery store to buy ingredients for Spaghetti and Fried Chicken. When I reached home, I prepared all the necessary ingredients for the foods I will be preparing. Even though the weather that day wasn’t that good as it was raining hard, I still enjoyed cooking because I want my students to be happy on my birthday.

At 2:00 AM, I noticed that the rain hasn’t stopped yet. But despite that, I continued cooking and went to sleep. As early as 6:00 AM, my cellphone rang and I was excited to answer it even though I was a bit draggy. I was expecting that it was a call from friends who will greet me on my birthday, but it was a asking me if we will hold classes because our city has been affected by a typhoon and it was reported as signal no.1.  I opened the TV and I find out that there were lots of schools who announced a NO CLASS day.

I left with no choice that day but to stay home and eat all the food I prepared. <sigh>. Thanks to my cousins and in-laws who went home and helped me finished all the food I prepared. Below is the photo of my spaghetti.

Christmas is all about love and giving and I suppose that mostly all of us are now busy trying to find the right gifts for our love ones and friends. Finding the right gifts is the hardest part because we wanted to make the recipient happy. That is why it takes a lot of time, effort and I would say money to wrap the best gift for our family and friends. But it always doesn’t have to be expensive. What matters most is the heart that gives. No matter what you put inside your box this Christmas, make sure that you also put your heart into it.
