Super happy ng 0′96 Christmas gathering this year.  10 out of 14 (2 kasi nasa Cali, so excused) dumating.  Lots of food, lots of kwento (some nga lang are kinda sad), lots to drink (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic), and ang happy ng mga natupad na pangarap (hahaha, wish-list-gift giving)!  Thank you, friends, for the great company, happy presents, and beautiful friendships! May our tradition continue as adherence to so strengthens the bond that keeps us together (lalo na because of the hecticity of life, we get to see some almost annually na lang talaga).  see you sa celebration natin next year — that would be our decade year!
