back to basics

So if you noticed, I have been silent for a month or so. I happened to have just returned from my three-week long holiday. I spent the Christmas season with my family like I always do in the past years. I introduced meinen Mann to my family and like I expected, he charmed them all effortlessly. (Seven down, one last to go! Good luck! ;-P)

Though there were a lot of major changes in our plan, it was a fun holiday. We had our noche buena with a "twist". We witnessed my nephew's first baby steps the day he turned 10-months old. And, and, and! Your good ol' ms.teacup has learned swimming! Yey! I finally got the courage to swim in the deep water. Thanks to my patient (and not to mention, very handsome) "swimming instructor" who casted a spell on me that I decided to take the first few strokes. After that, I was unstoppable. Haha!

It's really true what they always say that when you enjoy doing something, time runs evidently so quickly. I'll be back to my same old routine at work tomorrow. Oh well. Work is one of the things I am thankful for for the past year.

No new year's resolutions. They don't always work for me.
