December is here and Christmas is just around the corner. Every one of us here comes from different countries and culture. I am curious, how do you celebrate Christmas in your country? Here in the Philippines, I celebrate with my family. This is also the time for the family reunion and giving gifts to me and my family. How about yours?

@tech40 Oh. That would be hard. Do you know of the belief that if you make a wish during simbang gabi and you finished the nine days then it will come true? I finished it before and my wished come true. :) It was my Christmas wish. It might just be a coincidence but I am happy that it was granted.

In my family its just my mother and I now. We open Christmas presents on Christmas Eve. It has always been our tradition. Also we have pizza on Christmas eve before we open presents. Then on Christmas day we get together with the rest of the family and have a big dinner and exchange a few more gifts.

Well, we don't have Chrismas vocation actually. Thus, no celebrations. But, if you would like to celebrate it, no one could stop you. Going out for dinners or giving gifts to the one you love, etc.
