It's the festive season, and the day where Jesus was born over 2000 years ago! So it's the day to celebrate his birth with a big feast such as turkeys!
My community (AMPlify!) happened to have a Christmas party from 1-6am every year on this day and this was my first time attending it. Before setting out for the night, I was in a dilemma on what to wear and after much thoughts, I decided to don a suit with bow-tie looking like a real gentleman *giggles*.
First, I went over to Sandra's house for Christmas dinner. There were the usual Christmas dishes such as turkey, ham and roast beef (yummy!). They were heaven and the black pepper sauce for the roast beef was too spicy for my tongue to tolerate as spiciness isn't a good pal of mine. We followed up with exchanging presents after dinner and my first presents came to me soon after, as someone over 20 I could care less about Christmas presents but as a child, I enjoyed it regardless of what I received and one of my favourites were the crackers given to me by my grandparents bought from the US.
We then headed for midnight mass at Nativity which is located opposite our community and rendezvous with the others. Mass began exactly at 12 midnight and after mass, we headed for the party. There were food and beverages such as ham and once again I'm having it. The night was a joyous occasion having fellowship with the others, playing games together and most importantly was the time we spent together because happy people keeps the environment happy.
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy new year, one more week and it's a fresh new year!
