Christmas Day is just around the corner! But you don’t have to wait for December 25th to arrive to celebrate it. You can spread some holiday cheer by doing any, if not all, of these six things:
1. Play some tunes by Jose Mari Chan on your iPod
Pinoy Christmas isn’t complete without the classic Christmas tunes from Jose Mari Chan. So why not play these songs on your iPod and don’t just settle with hearing it at your local store? There is no better way to spread some holiday cheer than with some music.
2. Put up the Christmas tree and Christmas lights
Ah, time to re-decorate the house! Spend one afternoon putting up your Christmas tree, Christmas lights and those fascinating parols to brighten up your home! It would be cool to come home from a hectic day at work with those twinkling lights lightening up your place.
3. Pig out on your favorite holiday delicacies
The yummy puto bumbong is already available for you to pig out as well as your other favorite Christmas food: ube halaya, castanias, fruit salad, bibingka and queso de bola.
4. Create your Christmas gift-giving lists
Scrap those Christmas wish lists to your Santa and create your Christmas gift-giving list! Write down the names people you are giving gifts to as well as your gift ideas for each one of them. You can avoid the holiday rush and the blunder of forgetting to give someone you love a gift!
5. Go to Christmas light shows or bazaars in the metro
Light shows at city parks are up now that the month December has started. So try out these park shows and enjoy the play of lights and sounds with your barkada. If you are currently looking for places to buy gifts other than the mall, try out the Christmas bazaars around the metro for unique gift ideas.
6. Revisit those good ol’ Christmas stories
Too old for Christmas? I hope not! Better read those Christmas tales you loved when you were a kid like A Christmas Carol, The Nutcracker and The Mouse King or How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
