When I was a little girl, I used to believe in Santa Claus. I used to make a list of everything I wanted for Christmas and I'd leave it on the table at night for Santa to come and get. And he always did...at least I thought so since I always found that my letter is gone in the morning. I always used to put into heart the song “Santa Claus is coming to Town”... He's making a list and checking it twice. Gonna find out who's naughty or nice... Santa Claus is coming to town...
Then I grew up and was told that there was really no Santa Claus or reindeers that flies Santa all over the world with his sack full of gifts. I've stopped believing in Santa since then…But this Christmas, St. Nick sure gave me a wonderful gift. A very very wonderful gift, the one thing I've wanted the most: to spend even just one day out of my whole Christmas vacation with Alex.

My gift arrived today, at around 3 in the afternoon and I was so happy at the sight of him, standing there in front of our house.

The point is not really about Santa, of whether he exist or not. The point is Christmas is a time to believe. It's where the magic of Christmas lies --- in believing. So whether you're still a kid or a teenager or an adult, one should never ever stop believing in God and one should never ever lose hope in Him.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

I just got back from doing my parents and my christmas shopping. It was so crowded at the mall, it took at least an hour and a half just to pay for the things you bought. But it's definitely worth the time even though it's tiring.
I bought figurines, small and cute clocks and a pillow for all my friends. I haven't bought anything yet for Alex...
Alex, how I miss him. I don't know how happy this Christmas will be for me. I won't be able to spend it with him because he's grounded. I wish his mom would forgive him already. He didn't mean for his car to get wrecked. It was an accident. He's really all I want for Christmas so Santa, for my wish list this holiday, I only have one thing in mind. I wish I could spend my Christmas with Alex.

This thing called love... this is what we have, Alex and I. I feel so much joy in my heart knowing that he's here with me. He's a wonderful guy who makes my heart go slower and faster at the same time everytime we're together. My Alex --- He never fails to make me laugh with the corniest of his jokes, he always brightens my gloomy days when I feel so blah and so braindead, he's there...Putting the goofiest grin on my face. He can be makulit yet so sweet and I just love him for that.He's also my best friend, the one who patiently listens to all my kwentos and who bears with me during my moodiest and brattiest days. And he loves me too. I feel so blessed knowing I have someone like him in my life.

We've been together now for a year. It hasn't always been a smooth sailing course to take but we've held on. No one knows what's in the future but I believe we'll make it through, in good and bad times because we have that thing called love inside our hearts.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ALEX!
