Merry Christmas!

On our way to Incheon Airport (for Malaysia) and I just figured out how to blog from my phone --yay! So, it's the perfect time for a quick holiday message.
After celebrating Christmas with my coworkers (Kris Kringle, potluck dinner, snow and all) and happily Skyped family and friends, I can really appreciate the simple  joy of Christmas time.  Getting packages with all the fixings from home and opening presents from new-found friends made me think about what really matters.
Its not about outspending, outsmarting, or outlasting (survivor-style); it's really the creature comforts and the company that makes Christmas what it is. And, even though I missed being home, I've learned how close people can feel despite the distance. I was still able to see my loved ones open their presents, visit everyone from the comfort of my jammies and partake in the traditional meat and mashed potatoes dinner.
Anywho, before I get too deep about.my skins-in, white pepper and mashed potatoes, I really want to wish everyone a happy holiday season! Hope everyone has a lot of love and laughter during the festive season :D
PS, now that I've taken another step into the technology world of blogging (via smartphone), I promise to post more blips as I travel along.
PPS, I have decided to stop counting my blog by days. Not only have I lost count of exactly how long I've been here, I've also stop focusing on the countup/countdown. Just taking it one day and one adventure at time. Speaking of which, we're pulling up to the airport now :)


Yes, this is my Christmas tree.  No, it doesn't normally tip to the side --this was just the result of posting from my phone and not understanding the need for a "turn counter-clockwise" button.
