Hey, Merry Christmas to all. :). Well, our church celebrated Christmas this year, just like every other year. But this year, in my opinion, was better planned, nicer, and more community based. Like for example, we had free gift wrapping this year, the same as last yeaer, only there was a twist. The people that came to get their gift wrapped were brought to this other counter called ' PICK AN ANGEL'. Meaning, you pick a kid, and you kind of sponsor the kid for something he/she needs. note : most of the kids are orphans, or terribly poor. So the things they need are like maybe uniforms, new clothes, school shoes, books, etc.

So, i went for gift wrapping, twice. It was kind of early, i must say. Since we went like a couple of weeks before Christmas, which was like the beginning of Christmas. And everybody knows that everybody does last minute Christmas shopping. Like nobody is ever on time to get their Christmas shopping done. Likewise for us. So, not alot of people needed their presents wrapped, but all in all, there were more or less customers. Besides just wrapping, we got to migle with the rest of the volunteers, laugh and 'attract' customers together. A blast it was.

Okay, so back to the Christmas celebration. My church held something called ' THE HEAVENLY GIFT ' this year. Its like a play, but also the name of our community service thing. Yea, such a cute name, right? So, since i wasn't in church for the past few days, i missed the production that was held on the 20th and 21st of Dec. But they had it again today, and thank God i didn't miss it. Although i was actually supposed to be assisting upstairs with the kids.

All in all, i thought the play was awesome! Although, personally i thought the card didn't seem very serious Christmas business. But when i watched the play, i thought it was really really good! Not only that actors/actresses were good, but they actually delivered the message pretty well. However, i thought that the people who didnt study the Bible wouldn't understand the Sarah and Zachariah part. But it was good, real good. Don't get me wrong.

So, if you didn't catch it, get someone to tell the story to you. Really GOOD! oh, and PMR results are coming out on my birthday! So those who are going to collect their results, don't forget to bring me a present. I'm very very unpaiseh, so to speak. :)
