What did you get for Christmas?

While I was pretty much MIA these Christmas days, I got many unexpected gifts. Of course, gadgets. I bet the same goes for others too. So, what did you get this Christmas?

Mac Book Air!

Mac Book Air!

I got a Mac Book Air 13’3 2012 from dad and mom. I added some amount of money to since I’d feel bad if they spent so much for me. So far I’m loving this baby, but I haven’t used it much since I don’t have much time these days. But on weekends, the fun happens.

Coby MID 7048-G is an android tablet my boyfriend gave to me. It’s easy to bring with me and it keeps me company whenever on my way home at the FX. I love playing games here too, it’s a bit sad some games won’t work though but I really like this little dude and its great with reading eBooks as well.

I didn’t really expect I’d get these stuff but I guess I was a good girl this 2012. Heehee. So, how about you? :)

I hope I can somehow write reviews on this and my other babies I haven’t posted about! I had so much going on my life I’ve been disconnected to online world lately. So sorry.

Christmas means music

Do you hear what I hear? It’s Christmas time! Anyway, “Do you hear what I hear” is indeed a Christmas song written in October 1962 with lyrics by Noël Regney. Are you familiar with that song?

Christmas time means lots of Christmas songs playing everyday. It’s definitely going to bring you lots of “giggly feelings” when you hear them.

Instead of listening, why not join too? After all, Christmas means music so getting worked up for a music session with a yamaha clarinet at wwbw and friends would be awesome, won’t it?

And so soon, Christmas day will be coming. Families will gather and we will celebrate God’s birthday. It’s not the gift we should just be excited of, it’s Christmas day – let us look forward that wonderful day that Jesus came to earth and that our families are altogether.

Party Plans this Christmas?

Christmas is getting nearer – for sure, many are planning about what gifts they’ll buy and places they will go to. Part of this all is of course, are the party plans. Yet, are you prepared already?

Christmas Party

Christmas Party

To have a perfect Christmas Party is never easy at all but rather challenging because:

  • You want everyone to enjoy
  • You may have to spend some extra cash
  • You want it unforgettable

But to attain those three is to really plan things in an organized manner. Most of the important things are:

  • Sound utilities, and don’t forget to get a roland spd sx if a band will be over
  • Food and drinks (make sure you have enough for everyone)
  • Events (for sure there will be games and stuff, so better make them worth the time!)

 

Plans for Christmas!

Hohoho! Santa’s probably finalizing his list of good girls and boys now. Isn’t he? Christmas is finally here! Well, after this month much closer.

But other than the Christmas spirit – many are anticipating the holidays. Some plan to go on an adventure and get a nice gear for camping campbound and other places they will go!

When you think of it, it makes you really look forward to December. Then again, let’s not forget what Christmas truly is about – it’s about love and God :)

5 Things to Plan for Winter

Summer time, I know. But to ease yourself from the heat – why not move forward and think it’s winter, or maybe plan for it. Time pass by quick , so don’t waste a moment.

During winter time, there’s so much to look forward to. First of all is the birth of Jesus, Christmas, the gifts and the food! But it isn’t really a good idea to rush, you will miss those things you were looking forward to as a result of you think this way.

So, to be prepared start now and outline your plan for winter!

 

1. What will you need most?

Giving yourself so much time to think, you’ll be able to save a lot and get better ideas. Prepare what you mostly will need – the food you and your family will have, the gifts and also clothing. Some even make it a point to get electric fireplaces to their homes while it is still not a commodity (it saves you so much).

 

2. Thrift stores!
Surely, some stores give out information on their upcoming sale and some all through-out the year. And then of course, we know of some special occasions like Black Friday Deals, Cyber Monday and more. This is ideal if you want to spend more on the important things such as…

 

3. The place and places you will stay to
Families gather during Christmas season (winter) – thus it’d be very nice if you find a good place. Let them know about your ideas and this way, getting all things planned up will lessen your hassles in booking to hotels or places to stay in.

 

4. The people who give gifts too…
I know everyone deserves a gift and for sure if you were a millionare, you’d give the extravagant ones to all of the people you know. But, let’s face it – no one can give gifts to everyone! But it really doesn’t hurt because after all, it’s the thought that counts right? In case you can’t give a gift, you can invite them over anyway. So, coming back to the topic – make sure you list down! It might also give you the chance to think of what you can give these people on your gift list.

 

5. Activities to do…
Winter definitely means vacation! Now, other than going outdoors to awesome places – why not think of a fun activity at home on some days. Doing it with your family would even be better!
Winter is yet to come but just think of it, if you make plans strategically – you’ll get the best results not only for you but also for the people you’re going to spend winter with.
