not so merry xmas vacation

I admit I am not looking forward for this year's holiday season. With all my money troubles and relationship problems. But still, I am positive for a somewhat happy way to celebrate the occasions because I still have a family and other people around me that will see to it that I will still be happy in spite of all my troubles.

The office xmas party is ZERO. That is, for two years now we don't have a company xmas party. So my friends in the office and I decided to go to MOA to celebrate our last day together for the year 2010. I will rate our "lakwatsa" as 10 (given as the highest). It was an unforgettable, super fun day. Lots of laughter and eating of course. Don't mind the long walks because we always have a smile on our faces every time the camera make its shot.

On the 24th, we celebrate or traditional noche buena and my youngest brother's birthday with a slight twist. Aside from our usual gift givings, we had a mini parlor games. It is such a joy to play and kid around with your own family. The food was adequate but the gifts were enormous. Everybody felt very special with their gifts specially my sister-in-law, Apple. She even shed tears because of the overwhelming feelings she felt. I, too, would have cried if I did not control myself. The party was a sure 10.

Another party we attended is a post-xmas party with our best friends. We went to Dinah and Noel's house at Montalban to celebrate an after xmas party with our other friend Rona and Rodney. we are together with our families as well as Dinah and Noel's extended family. The foods were nice and delicious but I don't like the firecrackers that the guys were crazy about. It was a nice, relaxing party. Well, until it's time to sleep. My husband was possessed with the demon spirit when the night comes. Of all places to quarrel! We went home early the next morning because or fight needs to continue. This one is 5 for me.

After the fight I fell ill. Tonsilitis. For 3 days now I lay on bed because of fever and body pains. I can't eat right because my throat hurts a lot. I puke two times already. So far the medicine is helping. I just hope that I get well as soon as possible. My vacation was wasted. All the things I planned to do never came thou. A perfect Zero for me.

A not so merry xmas vacation right?

P.S.

I also misses someone so much this holiday season. haaaayyyyy....
