ugh, in the Philippines, we celebrate HARDCORE/ but I live in Maryland now, so I'll onyesha wewe both. If krisimasi is your one and only obsession, celebrate in the Philippines. Fireworks. People handing out money. IT STARTS IN DANG SEPTEMBER ENDS IN MARCH Family is EVERYTHING Enemies become friends GAH, THE FOOD
In good old USA: chajio, chakula cha jioni with friends We get all nostalgic Staying up late because I wish it snows/the krisimasi lights are too pretty to stop looking at Craft--making Giving We donate half our money to schools, poor children, etc.
krisimasi has changed so much from when I was a child. I enjoyed krisimasi then, then I do now. All of my cousins are grown up and have their own families. My sister lives with her boyfriend so she goes to his family's house for krisimasi then to our parents house, which really pisses me off. My sister is 24 and still rebels, meaning Marafiki and boyfriends come first. I only have one living Grand parent now. My Nana who always put on the best krisimasi dinners and had my relatives from my mom's side over and we would play this krisimasi gift game, I forget what it's called, but I remember it being a lot of fun. So basically what I like to do on krisimasi is spend the siku with my family and bake krisimasi goodies. I hope when I have children of my own it will get better again.
