I'd like to extend my greetings to all my readers, so I say Maligayang Pasko! It means "Merry Christmas" in my native language.
Wherever you are in the world, and whoever you may be celebrating this day with, may you all be filled with happiness and love. One of the best things during this time of the year, especially for me, is seeing a big smile on the faces of my family and loved ones as we celebrate the birth of Christ.
In the spirit of giving, I'm doing a quick give away to one of my lucky readers. I meant to give this away early this month, but I've been too busy with work and a lot of other things, so I'm taking this opportunity to give this away now.
Fill out the rafflecopter form and tell me: How are you celebrating this year? What gifts did you get? Did any of your wishes for the year came true?

Merry Christmas!
Hi Kai! I spent my Christmas unlikely last year and most likely the loneliest of all. I can't even explain to myself why I feel lonely this Christmas. It also feels like there's something I wanted that was never ever given to me. But, it's still good bc my family and I are together celebrating it with Noche Buena and fireworks. I got a new phone and socks. My phone is a birthday-Christmas gift from my boyfriend and the socks is from him too which is quiet expensive. I told him that he should have given me a book rather than socks. Haha. But he told me this, "Socks can protect your feet from the cold season, not a book." Has a bit of a point but I WAAAANT A BOOK THE HOLIDAYYYY!! Anyway, thank you for the giveaway and happy holidays to you. :)
ReplyDeleteLike every Christmas, I'm celebrating this one with my family and friends. Sharing good food, gifts and all the funny stories that happened to us. :)
ReplyDeleteBesides books ('cause everybody knows me so well!), I also got beautiful earrings from my sis.
Thanks for the giveaway and happy holidays! :)
Spent my Christmas with family and friends. We had a little Christmas party- games, food and exchanging of gifts. I didn't get any books though, but that's okay. I can always buy. Haha! And perhaps, win your giveaway? That is, if luck is on my side. :) Maligayang Pasko!
ReplyDeleteSpent my Christmas with family. Simple dinner and stuff. Got great gifts from friends. One gift was an incense set, which I can't wait to use. Merry Christmas to you too!
ReplyDeleteI get a beautiful book... Spent the time with my family.
ReplyDeleteThanks fot the giveaway!!
I'm celebrating the new year with close friends and family. I received my puppy as an early christmas present. We knew we wanted a dog from the shelter and we got him about a month ago. He's been such a wonderful addition to our family :)
ReplyDeleteMaligayang Pasko, Kai! I just celebrated Christmas with my family. It's a sober one though, because my grandfather is still in the hospital. We still exchanged gifts and I got a watch from my sister. :)

Hi,
ReplyDeletecatching up with family. I received a lot of books. Fabulous.
Our family celebrates Orthodox Christmas, which is on January 7th and I can't wait for it. I'll be spending time with my fiance and family. I started receiving gifts though (books, of course). :D
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to all bookworms! :)
I got lots of books, as always. And also a Forever 21 giftcard from my mom. Yay! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThe same as last year... :) no extravagant parties, just an ordinary family meal. And my family is not really fond of giving gifts to each other :)
ReplyDeleteWe spent the day with some friends and took our dogs for a walk on the beach. Thanks for the chance to win Legend.
ReplyDeleteSpent my Christmas with family. I only received gift from my mom and I did treat myself with books, of course lol. I mostly gifted this year unlike the past years, I received so much. It was fun wrapping gifts and seeing my little cousins' reactions to my gifts. Hope you have a fun holiday. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteMaligayang Pasko! I spent the day with my family and got cute little gifts from my friends and relatives. :)
ReplyDeleteI spent my Christmas with my family as usual, it was great I got books and clothes but I really missed the snow this year!
ReplyDeleteI spent Christmas with my family as usual, though this year I didn't feel much Christmas spirit, it was still okay and I got a lot of money because I asked for it for concert tickets :) Hope you had a merry Christmas Kai!
ReplyDeleteMy Christmas has been good so far. I received some money and make ups and many other thoughtful gifts. Happy Holidays and thank you for this amazing chance! I'm a big fan of Marie Lu. :)
ReplyDeleteThere weren't a lot of gifts maybe because I'm old (not really). But that's not important for me, I don't mind it. I prefer to give and to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas with my loved ones and give thanks and praise to Jesus, of course.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed Christmas to you, Kai! :)
Hi!
ReplyDeleteI spent my whole Christmas alone in my apartment just watching movies and finishing my knitting project. Not because I got now friends to hang out with, but I chose to just be all by myself. We'll have our exchange gifts on the New Year's eve, so we'll see what gifts I will get. :-)
I had an amazing Christmas with my family. We didn't prepare many food on noche buena and I didn't receive any gifts this year. But it was still amazing because this time, I was the one who get to give them something. Also, we are a big family (I have 5 older siblings) and this Christmas, we are complete so that's something to be thankful for.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Kai and May you have an awesome New Year!
I'm celebrating the year with my children. They gave me some wonderful gifts like the GPS that I've been eyeing for.
ReplyDeleteIm celebrating it with my family :)

ReplyDeleteI spent my holidays with my family and we are a family of book worms so it was bibliophile gifts for everyone!
ReplyDeleteI spent Christmas holiday with my family. It was a simple, yet fun bonding. I received two books from my friend. From my parents, I'm still waiting for their gift hahahaha (probably money but they wont let me spend it with books, though. They want to me to buy clothes and stuffs. LOL)
ReplyDeleteI got a laptop cooler and three books (Alice Bliss, Alice in Zombieland and Fangirl). Thank you for the amazing giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI had an amazing Xmas this year with family although I didn't get to celebrate it with my bestfriend for the first time because she had to leave and work abroad. . . I think I'm getting kinda old for gifts (but then again one can never be too old for gives) but so far I was given two of the most important gifts that I could ever ask for this year. Family and books!
ReplyDeleteHope you had an awesome Christmas as well! :)
