Christmas day is one of the happiest season in a life of most the people. I spend my Christmas day in a simple manner just like an ordinary day. There have been a typhoon here in the Philippines that devastated the lives of large number of people in some specific areas. I just told myself, I will not spend Christmas in a very lavish manner because I am being happy with it while some of my fellowmen are in agony of the disaster that have just passed by.
I know we all have different lives and that is what they chose but my heart is really crushed when I have seen their situation through the news and the videos posted in YouTube. So I have chosen to spend Christmas just watching cartoons on the internet while eat some food that I have cooked to celebrate Christmas eve. Just alone by myself. But I have enjoyed it so much! My bestfriend passed by the house and watched the anime he suggested me to watch and he was surprised I was watching it on Christmas day. And we both happily watched and let our emotions drawn by that anime.

On the Christmas Eve I was in the office, starring at my computer while a headset is attached on my ear drums as I monitor the calls of the call center employees because its my job to monitor their calls. Yeah I know that is sad and miserable but sadly there is no holiday for me. I have no choice, Well there is Christmas decorations in the office. Thats gonna be the same thing in the new years eve,

Hello there! Oh how I miss working in a call center and being a QA. Just like you I used to evaluate recorded calls. Yes we are aware of the fact and signed up for it that we are going to have work during Holidays and in the graveyard shift. Well you can make it all up after that special day. But I guess you are not a QA but a team leader because you are monitoring their calls and make sure that every call process is being followed imposed by your company. Have a great day and enjoy the New Year celebration.

How come it will be stressful if it's going to be Christmas eve? As for the agents, well yeah, they will be receiving less calls than the usual because everybody is busy with their personal lives and their families. That's nice to hear you received gifts from them. I hope those will not serve as gifts for favor

Hahahaha... you are so funny... Just reading the word Hentai makes my body shudder with disgust. No it's not like that. It is from youtube and I watched "Bleach" all day long. from episode 1 to 300 ... well until now I am still watching it that's why I reached that number until now. And a lot of episode skips because youtube is deleting some scenes because of copyright infringement thingie whatsoever.

Christmas eve was a long night, so Christmas day involved sleeping in. I think it was almost noon when we all woke up. The kids got their gifts from santa, and we just spent the day watching TV and playing with their new gadgets/gifts. There were lots of food from the previous day so there was no cooking. Just a lot of re-heating whenever we got hungry.

Hi aaron fyzeon: Thanks for sharing with us your feelings on how you feel on Christmas time. In my case, when I came home, I watch a movie and then I shared my time with my parents, my aunt, my grandmother, my sister and brother. I eat my Christmas dinner at midnight and after talking for a while I went to sleep. For me sharing time with our families is the best part of Christmas Eve.
