CFBC CHRISTMAS PARTY

entering ate rj's house brings a lot of warmth. Her house seems so jolly and into the season. Sadly, Laura Sun could not attend, so i tried to find someone to go. And, with Kristine's help, Bryan came! It started off with eating: Mac&Cheese, spaghetti, and the best fried chicken! While eating, there was the best conversations.

Off to the backyard for games! First, the blanket game / ultimate rock paper scissors. Kuya Ian is very creative. I like how our team just cuddled on the floor so were on big rock, and the other team did the same thing. Then, we went into five teams. We got cards and one person had to have a card taped to their forehead and ask their team questions on what it is. Very hectic because Kuya Buzz was only accepting four people to come back. When my team was done, it was between two teams, and Bryan was only on his first card: 'chocolate chip waffle'. The next round, our team lost because i am not so good with movies. Kuya Ian's team had a very easy category: Music.

We went back inside for praise&worship. And reflecting on 2008. Who said my name? i didn't know who said it, and then everyone started saying it. I think its odd, how i get so shakey when i can be so loud at the same time. I guess its just the moment when your put on the spot, everyones listening, and yet i wasn't so sure what to say. Then, more singing! followed by a bible study from ate rj's dad, tito alex. He kept saying all these bible verses, i couldnt keep track. But, it was also a good reminder. Christmas should be centered on Christ, because thats what Christmas is all about.After, we played that game where you have to say stuff so that everyone else could guess the word, and you pass it to someone after. Then, Kuya Ian made the best hot coco i've ever had. A regular nestea powder, then added peppermint mocha. very soothing to my throat.

White elephant gift exchange! we all picked numbers, i got 21! how cool, thats my favorite number, and my birthday day. Kuya Buzz explained that there was one gift where there was a Chris N'sync action figure. If you get it, you can't open it, and you have to bring it back next year. So, you don't want to get it. We would all chant 'Chris, Chris, Chris'. Then, ate reinna got it. Someone got an actual white elephant beanie baby. Then, when it came my turn, i stole melissa's leg warmers, and she got my scarf. Then, jojo stole my legwarmers, and i got a book. When, i opened it everyone was constantly saying it was a good book. Ate helen, wanted it so we traded, and now i have a starbucks gift card. Jonathan chose the foil, and it was an orange. How nice of Christian to steal that orange. Then, Jonathan chose the water bottle. The water bottle had 1/4 of water left in it, and a $25 gift card to iTunes. And even after the n'sync action figure was chosen, we would still chant it.
Full of FUN & FELLOWSHIP!picture credits*RJ & HELEN
