When I think of the Philippines I think of
Christmas
Christmas is the longest festivity the Filipinos
celebrate.
Preparations for Christmas start as soon as the month ends with "ber"
that
is September. Christmas in the Philippines is very solemn and not
material in nature. Filipinos always await for the nine day
Novena
Mass which starts December 16 and ends Christmas Eve. This Novena
Mass is called Misade Aguinaldo meaning "giftmass. We also have a
midnight meal on Christmas Eve called Noch e Bucha. On Christmas
day there's Mass every hour. Christmas celebrations end during
the
"Feast of the Three Kings."

We celebrate Christmas by visiting our
families.
We also make ornaments. We cook lots of food. We go
caroling
and we give gifts. We go to church on Christmas Day. We
have
a lot of fun during the Christmas Season in the Philippines.

In the Philippines we celebrate Christmas. If we celbrate
it, we cook. We use fireworks and play with our friends and
the most important is we eat together. We love to open our
presents on Christmas.
