Countdown 'til Christmas

This year I got to have my first week-long Christmas holiday vacation as our company mandates it to file for VL. Thankfully I have the credits and will be work-free at least for one week!

Christmas countdown...

December 25, 2011 (Sunday)
- at the strike of 12 fireworks started. As customary in our family we went outdoors and watched the fireworks around us. There isn't many this year, we are hoping that by New Year we will see much more.
- Aunt Eyen shared her actions on the fire at Gaisano Capitol South which sadly burnt her Ampao from her boss. Hopefully it will be repaid.
- ate fruit salad before heading back to sleep and ow, upload the pictures.

- attended my 3rd Misa de Gallo
- again movie marathon day long and started to write this blog.
- one of my inaanaks (son of Cathy) claimed his gift
- a super healthy dinner: Crispy Pata
- videoke2x while waiting for midnight

December 23, 2011 (Friday)
- attended my 2nd Misa de Gallo.
- nothing much happened this day as I only watched movies all day. Alternating with sleep and eat.

December 22, 2011 (Thursday)
- The last day of work! I still have issues to investigate. Thankfully I was able to resolve it and our QA endorsed an external release to customer. I really hope that no bugs will be discovered until at least after the new year.
- After working half-day, yes I used 4 hrs of my remaining personal leave credits I went straight to the department store and bough toys for my "inaanaks". They are just cheap ones under 200 pesos a piece. As a child they would surely be happy to have something for Christmas.
