Merry Christmas 2013!

It is my favourite time of the year!

Is it yours too? Are you excited? I sure am. Christmas is barely one sleep away (it’s 23.50 here in Jakarta) and I don’t even think I’ll sleep tonight.

Families, presents, pretty Christmas trees, Christmas masses, Santa Claus, abundant Christmas cookies and food; Christmas is magical, isn’t it?

This is not a food-related post, mind you, I am just sharing the Christmas carol I took part in just very recently. Aren’t the kids cute? It was so much fun, especially watching children’s reaction to Santa, some immediately cried and ran away, others laughed and even poked his full belly. Cuteness. The carol isn’t like the ones we see in movies of course, we have no snow here, and instead of candles they used light sticks. It was still really entertaining, though.

And the angels! I love those little lovely angels. One of the best parts of the day, really.

Anyway, I’d like to wish you and you families a very Merry Christmas, hopefully your days ahead will be full of love, fun and joy! Stay safe in this holiday season, guys, especially for you Sydney-siders! I heard scorching days were experienced? Stay cool and have fun!
