What Time is It?

IT'S DECEMBER! It's almost Christmas, it's almost the end of the year and it's exactly 16 days until I start using up all my leaves (which means I'm on leave Dec 17 and I get back to work on Jan 4!).  Yes, it means shopping and having to brave this season's terrible traffic jams.  However, this also means simbang gabi, family and friends get-togethers/Christmas dinners, bibingka, Majestic Ham, ensaymada (a great excuse to get fat!) - and the list could go on and on.  December FTW!
