Take a music bath once or twice a week for a few seasons,
and you will find that it is to the soul what the water-bath is to the body.

– Oliver Wendell Holmes

Merry Christmas!

I haven’t thought of a gift I will gift myself this coming Christmas. But I’m planning to get a new pair of Nike shoes, exercise equipment and an X-mini hamburger speaker. Me and my sisters agreed that we will not give presents this year because two of my sister will not join us this Christmas. We’ll have our grand reunion is Singapore this coming March of next year and we are all excited. I wonder what I can give my sisters, any ideas?

“Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman.”
~Ludwig Van Beethoven

After band rehearsal last Saturday, we all went out (minus one bcoz he’s sick) to eat and had coffee. It’s nice to bond with friends every now and then. It takes the stress out of my system. Maybe we should to do this often and next time, it should be four of us.

The country had experienced a tragic day when Typhoon Ondoy stormed in. Everyone was unaware until it hit us. Our family was lucky. We still have our house intact and lost nothing. I feel sorry for all the victims and continuously pray for their lives to get better. So I started to volunteer on charity works such as repacking and getting out donations to affected sites. We also collect goods such as canned goods, old clothes, toys, books, old but usable furnitures, like 4396508 water filters and monetary donations. It’s nice to help people. It’s an experience I will never forget.

Vacation is in season and I’m sure it’s nice to travel and go places this holiday season. I always wanted to spend Christmas and New Year anywhere abroad. I want to experience how they celebrate their Christmas. I heard Christmas is exciting in New York. People spend their time out with friends until Christmas arrives. If ever I’m going, I’d make sure to book hotel reservation new york in advance because I might avail some discounts.

Holiday season again and I’m sure I’m going to get more birthday, reunion and Christmas party invitations. That means I’ll be eating more than usual. This coming weekend is booked with band rehearsal and friends get-together then next week is our High School reunion. I’m sure it’s going to be a fun fun week. I think I need to double my work out and not forget to Lipofuze to help me slim down faster. But that doesn’t stop me from having fun of course.
