Miracles Await in 2008

i was browsing thru the Toronto Star while enjoying my coffee and a stack of pancakes when i came across this news article entitled Miracles Await in 2008. it was an astrological summary of the coming new year and every zodiac sign was detailed accordingly. here's mine:

Experiences that seem almost too good to be true will be yours to enjoy. You deserve them, so don't doubt it. There's a delightful development in your life coming up. And there's also a chance to apply yourself to a task that fires your imagination, unleashes your creativity and makes your feel much more confident about what you have to offer the world.

there's no place like family

it's only been a little over 24 hours since i arrived in canada and i already feel very content and happy about the holidays. an unfamiliar feeling i have to admit, since i haven't had the opportunity to celebrate the season around family for quite some time. the past 6 years - christmas eve and christmas day for the most part, involves searching for a christmas dinner or party to crash or finding a friend without family to hang with (there's always somebody who stays in town) or going to the movies alone on christmas night.

the past 6 years i have tried hard to detach myself from the familial aspect of christmas but moving forward i will have to try harder and regain a better appreciation of the holidays. i have to re-understand that holidays is about family as i hoping to spend more christmases with them and the people that matter. after all - there's no place like family, there's no place like home.

merry christmas!

O Canada

woohoooo!!! i made it to Toronto in one piece (the flight was very rough due to an incoming storm). it is freezing here - feels like about 25 degrees right now. the sidewalk are lined with snow. my sister's house is very festive and finally i am feeling christmasy!

aiight ... more posts to come. it's time for some steamy rice, adobo and longganisa.
