Hi, Steemerz! 🙋🏽‍♀️

An hour or more - that’s actually how longggg I was staring at this blank page thinking of how to start since I had not posted anything from my last post. I‘m feeling quite awkward, but hey it’s 2018! It’s time to make some adjustments, embrace the awkwardness and start rollin! 🤪

2017 2018

Starting the year with a bang 🎉

New year’s eve celebration has ever been so festive in most of the Filipinos. When you get to experience a New Year’s eve celebration in the Philippines, never will you see a dull street or an empty table, as simple as it may be. You’ll see people coming out of their houses jumping, watching as the fireworks light and color up the sky, and merely making noise as welcoming the year with a bang! It has also been a Filipino tradition to gather around the table with family and friends sharing talks and laughters while indulging the sumptuous foods that were being prepared in the table. That idea made me feel so grateful for being a Filipino. ♥️ (Awwee so cheesy 🧀 LOL 🤣) 

Here are a few snaps of how I spent my New Year’s Eve. 🎉 


 


My pillars of strength. My family. I’m forever grateful


This 2018, may we all be reminded that there is always a spark inside us. We should ignite that light and let it burst thoughout. Coz just like a firework, we are made to rise up and shine. ✨

 


 

Can you spot the jumping unicorn? 🤣 LOL! (Fact: Part of the Filipino belief is jumping on a new year as it points the clock on midnight. It says it’ll make you taller. Uhmmm? 🤔 WTVR! 😝) 


 

Wishing everyone a very happy new year! May this year bring us everything good, bright, and merry. Cheers for a productive and prosperous new year to you and your family! 🥂🎉



Love and light, 

GirlWithALongName 🐾♥️

Happy New Year!
Nice post. It was charming for me to read.
I had a quiet New Year’s Eve with my family as one of my children had a high fever. So we sat tucked up under a duvet on the sofa and watched films and some live music that Jools Holland presents on TV in the UK. I can remember watching this same programme years ago when I was 13, 14, 15 etc, babysitting for adults that had gone to parties. That’s 37 years ago! So, you could say it’s a bit of a long tradition. 😄.
My eldest daughter celebrated some 10 hours ahead of us as she lives in Australia. She Skyped is just before midnight our time as they got up early to see the first sunrise of the year. For the first time my 2nd daughter was away at a party and not with us. But there were still 4 of us at home to toast in the New Year (2 more daughters).

I think we need to liven things up a bit next year. Your post inspired me to do so. 😄

Awwee. 😌 Reading your compliments make my heart melt. 😍 Its so humbling 🤗 Thank you for the appreciation. Hoping all the best for you and your family. Have a happy new year from my family to yours! 🎉♥️
