Merry Christmas!

Back when I was a child, I used to sing "i'm dreaming of a white christmas" without really understanding what it means.  We don't have snow in the Philippines so what do you expect. It was only when i got here in the US that i fully understood, lol! So, this is white christmas huh?  It is pretty, really pretty! Everything is white.  I love looking at it but only when I am inside the house.  I hate going out.  I live in Buffalo, a place known for its freezing winter.  It is Christmas Day today and you know what we got here in Buffalo right now? 

Right! We got two feet of snow, lol!  Merry Christmas everyone!  Cheers!

Coats And Jackets On Sale At Zappos

Christmas is a time for giving and for me, the best gift I could give my loved ones this Christmas is something that they would use, not just keep it for display. Yes, it’s the thought that matters but I would feel better if I know I am giving something that the recipient needs, will use and would love to have. In other words, I always pick practical gifts. For Christmas, my husband asked me what I want because he used to give me stuff that I haven’t really used even once and I guess he learned his lesson. I told him I need a new trench coat because I bought mine seven years ago and although it is still in good shape, I guess I deserve a new one, don’t I? He did not tell me what he wants and I don’t ask him because I am sure he would tell me he doesn’t need anything. I know what to give him and that is a new coat or jacket. 

After living in Buffalo where people live with snowstorms and freezing winter, getting him a new jacket would be very much appreciated, I hope. My husband has gained some few pounds through the years and I want him to feel more comfortable in a new jacket. I want to get him a Marmot Nano jacket which is a lighter jacket for everyday use and a Parkas jacket which is on sale right now. I’m so glad to find Zappos.com which has all kinds of coats and jackets for all age range – in different style, brand, size, color, and price range. It is actually like a one-stop shopping center where everything is there, just like going to a mall. The good news is: there are so many items on sale and you will find a lot of pretty good deals if you do your shopping now. 

I can’t wait to get my orders in the mail and if anyone is still looking for something to give your loved ones on Christmas, check it out with Zappos because there are lots of cool stuff waiting for you there. Happy shopping!

Charice at Rockefeller Center, NY

Here is another song that Charice sang at Rockefeller Center in New York City which was also greatly applauded.  I love how she sang this song and everyone can tell how proud David Foster is about Charice, like a true godparent to his godchild.  I hope Charice will continue to shine and stay humble because the Philippines is just so proud to have a true talent in her. She makes us all Filipinos proud. 

Charice singing live in New York City

Christmas is really in the air.  I hear christmas carols more often now and i now see christmas ornaments and lights hang around the neighborhood.  I did put up my little christmas tree right after thanksgiving but i am not done yet.  Speaking of Christmas, the lighting of the giant christmas tree in New York City was always a sight that people look forward to every year.  That was a show to behold.  My fellow filipina Charice sang in Rockefeller Center with her mentor David Foster and as expected, she nailed every song that she sang on that occasion.  Here is one and you will also see how professional Charice has become.  I love this girl!
