Where To Spend My New Year's Eve?

Holidays are coming but I still don’t know how I’m going to spend it. I won’t be home for Christmas or New Year ’s Eve because I don’t have enough money to spend for my plane ride home. It would be very expensive especially this time of the year.

I miss my folks back in the province though. This is not the first time that I won’t be spending the upcoming holidays with them but I really feel that it’s important to be with the family during this season. Sigh.

I miss hearing my Mom’s voice even if it’s irritating sometimes. I miss my favorite sweet Aunts - Tita Rose and Tita Almeda and my cousins. I miss hearing them laugh and chat loudly with each other even if it gets annoying sometimes. LOL! I miss my brothers whom I sneak off and puff cigars with without letting our Mom know and talk about our lives for a little while. Ah! Even if we don’t stand each other most of the time, family is still family, you know.

I know I’m getting mellow-dramatic again. I just haven’t seen them for a while now. How I wish I’m a rich girl who can afford to go home anytime I want.

Anyway, my boyfriend already invited me to spend the New Year’s Eve with his family. I’m thinking twice about going though. I’m friends with his family and I’m okay with them, I guess. Just thinking about it makes me feel anxious already because it’s going to be my first time to spend the New Year’s Eve with a boyfriend and his family.

Nah! I am yet to make up my mind. :)

Busy Day At Work on Black Friday...

Later is Black Friday in the United States! I'm in the Philippines so that statement doesn't mean that I'm excited or happy about it. We, Filipinos, don't celebrate Black Friday.

Black Friday is the day following Thanksgiving Day in the United States. This is the beginning of Christmas shopping season so a lot of people are lined up hours early before a store that has big sale opens! I have seen on t.v. how it is whenever it's Black Friday. People push their way to the stores to the point of getting hurt because of the stampede. If I leave in the United States, I might not dare shopping on Black Friday. LOL!

So what's making me anxious about Black Friday? It's the amount of calls that I'm dreading to take on my shift at work later on! Phew! It's going to be queuing of calls today. I better prepare myself and get enough sleep.

Holidays Are Coming, So Are Bonuses! :D

Holidays are coming so are bonuses and the 13th month pay! Employees like me are excited not only the upcoming holidays but most especially the money that we're about to earn! Shopping mall are more likely going to be packed with people who'll take advantage of the mall sales! The cashiers' barcode scanner will also going to be heard all around the mall for sure!

I have a lot of things in mind that I would love to buy for myself but I also have to think about saving my money for my homecoming this December.

I hope I can get enough blessings to fit my budget before this year ends! :D
