Laughter with Mom Violy, Carmina, Ruel, Neria and Marissa

Mom Violy wanted to get a haircut from Ruel from Hairliners Salon in Ali Mall.

I was able to get my facial done while Mom Violy was busy having her beauty treatments. Mom Violy had introduced me to Marissa saying they wanted to add each other in Facebook. They had no clue how to do it. Both Mom Violy and Marissa handed their phone to me.  Ruel had informed Marissa that I am doing Poppo Live.  Marissa asked for some pointers how to use the Poppo Live application on her phone.

Nocho Bunea (Christmas Eve)

You wake up in the morning feeling there are so many things to do today. It is Christmas Eve and so many things to do.

You came across going to the grocery store for last minute things to buy and come out with a line so long.

You come back home and need to pick some food up for the celebration. Come home tired and no appetite to eat. 

You decide cooking for the upcoming evening.

You cook some chicken macaroni salad, spaghetti and feeling so drained out.

You only have a short time to rest and end up working it off making some garden salad for the menu for tonight.

By the time you eat at the dinner table you feel so sleepy and can’t seem to wake up being so tired.

It is not even mid-night yet when you start exchanging Christmas gifts with your in-law.

You still have three hours to kill and try to figure out how you can stay awake.

You turn on your internet on your phone all the beeping comes to your phone so many friends have started greeting you a Merry Christmas. You turn and reply all to them greeting them a Merry Christmas.

I am sure I am not the only one dealing with this kind of stuff right now.
