MY WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE

(Allan Raizen P. Bataller)

Christmas Day was always a wonderful experience for me. Because this
is the day when I can eat my favorite food and go wherever I want go. On
Christmas Eve, my Papa, Mama and I stayed at home and prepare for the
occasion because my Mamita and my siblings went to our cousin’s house. My
papa and mama cooked food while I watched TV in the living room and played
when I got bored. I went on the veranda to watch and fed our pet fishes
swimming in the aquarium.

My father cooked spaghetti and roasted chicken for our Noche Buena.
But I only ate rice and chicken because it is my favorite dish. And I ate two
times on that evening, dinner and Noche Buena. And these will not be
complete without softdrinks for my drinks. Then we slept by 2:00 in the
morning.

On the Christmas Day, I woke up at 10:00 in the morning. I ate breakfast

which is chicken and rice. I took a bath then wore my Christmas outfit because
my siblings, cousins and I will go to our ninong and ninang’s houses to ask for
gifts. My ninang’s house is our neighbor and she gave me cologne as a gift. We
went to my other lolos and lolas’ houses and gave us red packets with money
inside. As I went back home, I counted my money and asked my parents to go
to a mall to buy something. My parents do not want to go out because they
want to rest at home. So we had lunch at home.

My father, mother, siblings, grandparents, tita Perly and Uncle Jerome

and Kesha ate lunch together at home. We ate roasted chicken, spaghetti and
barbecue. But Tita Perly invited Mama to go to Onemall Plaza just to window
shop or buy some toys. So we all went to Onemall Plaza. We went at E-home
and buy toys. We also went to Savemore to buy rice cooker. Then it rained, so
we went back home after that.

We had dinner with unlce Vhal. Kuya Roni, ate Thea, Kesha and I played
while the grown-ups talk. I am very happy.
