ber

this morning i got a text saying, "merry christmas!" from alice. yes, the countdown has started. countdown to christmas that is. it may be the start of the bed weather or the onset of heavy traffic jams, but pinoys really do have a thing with ber months, which of course starts today. shopping and for employees like me, the ber months can also mean "extra bucks for a year of hardwork and dedication", as most bonuses are doled out during these months. as for me, this year's ber months could potentially be a crossroad as landmark decisions should be made. anyway, whatever reason(s) one has, it's always a hearty thing to look forward to the holiday season... the ber months usher in the christmas spirit and a time to spend with one's family. happy christmas!
