Merry Christmas!

"Whenever I see girls and boy selling lanterns on the street, I remember the child in the manger as he sleeps..."

This are the famous lines that I always get to hear every time my dad plays a Christmas song when the calendar reaches its "-ber" month. I have been listening to this same song for the past years and I still never get tired of it and whenever I heard of this song no matter where I am. It reminds me of home. Home a word that makes my heart flutter and warm. Home a word that rings happiness to my ears.

Home the most perfect place to spend Christmas together with your loved ones which I whole heartily agree. This are one of the things that I enjoy doing the most. My family and I loved Christmas. The days passed so very fast and now it's FINALLY HERE! 

Just before Christmas

Happy Holidays to each and everyone! 

Christmas is here and I'm pretty sure that this post of mine will be posted and will be read after Christmas and I'm right. Fufufu

Anyways, what did you do during your holidays? Did you enjoyed it as much as I do? Did you went to other places to spend the holidays? Did you receive a lot of presents for this year? 

On my end, I didn't expect anything but I was utterly surprised by the gifts that I received. Size and prize doesn't matter to me, as long as it is heartily given I'll gladly accept it with open arms. Speaking of which, It all started when my TL from work gave each of us, her members, a cute and simple tokens namely a coin purse in various designs. I, on the other hand, picked this cute lollipop designed purse, the first gift I received for this year.

Christmas is in the Air

Christmas is in near and I can almost literally smell it in the air. 

Question is...can you?

The Glow

Ever since I was a little girl I've always dreamed of being a princess. To find my Prince Charming one day and the idea of "Happily Ever After". I can say that this mainly the influence of watching too many Disney movies which I grew up with.

I can still remember the time, when my mom used to play "The Little Mermaid" on beta-max, she would left me sitting there watching while my mom would continue doing her unfinished task. Since then, I have always been a huge fan of Disney movies, in fact, I still am. Many years have already gone by and I still watch it whenever I have the time, just to relax, reminisce, cry, fall in love and have hope. This always manage to give me a boost whenever I feel down. For each movie, for each story, there's always a lesson to learn and thoughts to ponder.

But, do you know what I love about most of Disney's movies aside from their stories? It's their songs. ^_^ It has a lot of feels and majestic each in its own way. I hum and sing those songs whenever I feel like it.

Speaking of feels and majestic, here's a song that I just recently heard which made my day and made me glow.

......

We are a princess in each in our own way, we don't need a tiara for that to happen. We just need to believe in ourselves and trust in our hearts. 

Throwback: Friends through and through

Tifa: Eh? She's calling
Mau: Keep smiling you guys Mac's about to take the shot.
Cherry: She's really calling. Shall we answer?
Tifa: No! Don't
(Cherry went ahead and swiped the screen)
Cherry: O.o the lock isn't working
Me: What are gonna do? it's  not ringing anymore.
Mau: Just keep smiling and be natural. Oh he says ready! cheese!

I miss this. ♥

Who would have thought that what we thought was an eminent down pour of rain turns out to be a ray of sunshine?

Sunshine in both the physical sense and the abstract sense. How wonderful must that have felt. I, too, am glad that I have a ray of sunshine with me. A sunshine that still glows even the sky is somber. A sunshine that when you feel cold, you'll be enveloped with warmth inside and out.

Thats what my friends are to me, a ray of sunshine. Bright, alive and real.

I miss this.

I miss them.

Let's do some of these next time guys.

Mockingjay

It's the first day of December everyone!!!

What a good way to start the holidays other than by reading a good ole book. Oh, not just any book but The Hunger Games. I did mention that I was rereading them and did a synopsis to the last two in honor of the Mockingjay movie, didn't I?

Uhuh! Good memory you guys! so without further ado here's the last book of the best-selling series.

......

In the last and final installment of the The Hunger Games Trilogy.

Can we still say the odds are never in their favor?

We shall see...

Now, that there is no more District 12.

.......

Upon learning that there is no more District 12, Katniss struggles her life in District 13 as she struggles in this new place and holding herself knowing that Peeta is in the capitol being held captive  Through her act of defiance the whole districts of Panem had now fully rise to a rebellion. Feeling somewhat manipulated as the fire who started the uproar , Katniss reluctantly agreed to be the "Mockingjay" (the symbol of rebellion) with conditions. 

She wants Alma Coin, President of District 13, vows to grant immunity among all Hunger games Tribute including Peeta who had previously made a propo (propaganda) to have a cease fire which made the people in 13 angry and deemed him traitor and most but not the least, she gets to kill President Snow.

A rescue team was sent to the Capitol to rescue the captive tributes as President Coins word after witnessing Katniss upheld her own. What seems to be a heartfelt reunion between her and Peeta turns out to be one excruciating reunion. Peeta didn't think twice of attacking her and claiming to her to be a mutt.

Torn, hurt and humilated Katniss shunned Peeta to the point of avoiding him and treat him with hostility.

In this last installment a thrilling and action packed adventure awaits.

What will Katniss do now that President Snow is on the hunt to make sure she's dead.

What will President Coin do in order to get what she wants?

Will Katniss and Peeta grow back together?

Will she know who the real enemy is?

And this time for sure...Will the odds be in her favor?
