journal: Xmas(2011) and new Year(2012)

       My Christmas is a typical Christmas of a Filipino people. The difference between the last Christmas and new year is that my grandfather and grandmother are having a visit for a very long time here in Davao. I thought that the last time they visit here will be the last time that i will see them but I'm wrong.

      This Christmas, i failed to complete the "Simbang Gabi" tradition that i have consecutively completed for about 5  year straight. In the first day which started at 16, i try to get up and go to church but in the succeeding morning, i never thought that i cant get up because i am exhausted making the assessment in one of my subject. Starting that day, i never get up early and decided that i will complete it next time.

      This New Year, we celebrated it without a fire works. The city government mandated that no firework is allowed for the safety of everyone. To insure that all people in Davao will be caught because of violating the fire cracker ban, The Mayor and Vice mayor will give a reward for those who can point out someone who violate the rules. This rule is annoying from the start and its been 10 years since the mayor started it and we are now enjoying the benefit of fire cracker ban. You are not allow to burn your money anymore and for that, every body is happy.
