This year is the second time I spent Christmas away from my parents. My brothers are here, so I was at least with “family”. Yet I couldn’t stop thinking about my mom and dad who are with my uncle and my cousin back home. I missed them, especially today which is probably the most sentimental day of the year. :(

I was adopted by the Tardio family on Christmas Eve, so it wasn’t such a lonely Christmas. But this is me on Christmas Day around 7:30 in the evening…

This is what happens when there’s no homemade spaghetti, no ube-macapuno ice cream, no fried chicken, no lechon kawali, no pork barbecue, no chocolate cake, and no mom and dad to keep me wanting to stay home. :(

On the way to the mall, I was thinking of Jesus and how the day was supposedly about Him. Then out of nowhere, I remembered Kuya Cres telling this joke a few years back. I don’t know why it suddenly came to mind. LOL.

Jesus: “I tell you the truth, one of you is going to betray me..”
Simon Peter: “Is it I, Lord?”
Jesus: “No, Peter, it is not you.”
John: “Is it I, Lord?”
Jesus: “No, John, it isn’t you.”
Judas: “Is it I, Lord?”
Jesus: (pause) “Is-it-I-Lord, is-it-I-Lord.. Alam mo namang ikaw yun eh, nagmamaang-maangan ka pa dyan!“

Hahahahahaha! Kainis. Nonsense ba?
Anyway, Merry Christmas, everyone!
