“This is the first Christmas I’m not celebrating at home, because I will go to the United States with my best friends I will also spend New Year there.
“I don’t know what to expect since it’s going to be a first for me. But we will definitely be seeing some relatives there. Makikikain din siguro ako sa mga Filipino communities there. I will post something like, ‘Hey, I’m in LA. Anyone wants to adopt me?’ (laughs) That’s the plan!”

“My mom’s in charge of decorating the house and now we have a beautiful parol hanging on our window. I remember creating lanterns in school, but our family never really hung one in our home until this year. We usually just put up a tree. So it’s nice to have this shining light at night. It feels like a very Filipino Christmas.
“We will celebrate at home with my immediate family only. But next year, I hope we can finally have a big Noche Buena with the whole family.”
