Last December 26, some of us, based in Legazpi City , from our high school batchmates distributed relief goods to 85 recipients. These relief goods were bought from the donations of the batchmates from here and abroad. The 85 recipients were the families at a bit far and remote town that was more devastated by typhoon Tisoy than us. After the distribution of the relief goods, we all gathered at a restaurant and had our lunch as our party and dessert at a coffee shop. It was a simple Christmas party , no parlor games, just us eating and sharing stories, but we were all very happy. The pictures will tell how much we all enjoyed our relief distribution then our Christmas party.

Hi Ms. LT! How are you? Is it true that Mt. Mayon is on Alert Level 2? Somebody told me about it.

I heard that too, but there's no news about it. I hope it will remain calm. It has just erupted last Feb. 2017 and it usually has a major eruption after 10 years as per experience. How are you there in New Zealand? What's the season there now?

@sunrisefan I think summer there is not as hot and humid as here in the Philippines during summer.

Happy to know if what I was told about Mayon is true. It’s still summertime here in NZ.

Thank u. It was one memorable Christmas party that was made simple because we have to donate some of our money instead for the families devastated by the typhoon. It was a fulfilling thing to do specially that it is the Christmas season.

That's great you were able to get those goods to those in need after the typhoon. Now, you're dealing with a volcano. Is it near you?
