Christmas Party in Los Angeles

On December 10, I attended an early christmas party of former Philnabankers. 90 % of those in attendance were former officemates at the Internal Audit Group. Those who attended though comprised around 30 % of the whole former auditors who are now residing in Los Angeles county. For seven hours, we kind of reminiscing PNB days and our fulfilled american dreams. As always the case, food abounds in every party or gathering here in the US. The Filipino heritage in us, we bring home foods (we call it "to go foods") not consumed in the party. In that way, no foods were wasted. Moreover, for all of us we will certainly have food in the next meal (libre pa). The party was happy and the conversations were moderately lively. Our hosts, the Jasa family were likewise gracious and very accommodating. Everyone was put at ease and comfortable. Those that sang songs were lavishly appreciated and acknowledged. By the way, the Jasas are personal friends and were instrumental in my fruitful & blessed US life. I am forever grateful for their love and concerns. I thank God with joy when I remember them and include them in my prayers of adoration to God(Phil 1:3-4).
