It's the birth of Jesus.
Well, actually, it's not. Nobody really knows the exact date and time of His birthday, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to set a date to celebrate His journey towards us, humans, around 2000 years ago.
I don't wanna be a bummer but, I'm just going to put it out there..
Christmas is about Christ.
It's not about the kids.
It's not about the gifts.
It's not about family.
It's a day where we should celebrate for He has come and will save us from our sins. Well, we celebrate Christmas with kids, gifts, and family but please don't confuse it with the true meaning of Christmas.
Anyway..
Our Christmas was pretty simple. I helped my mom cook our meal for the night. Everyone seems busy and Egypt's girlfriend decided to celebrate with us. We opened gifts and thank God for all that He has done with my simple whisper.
On Christmas Day itself. I went with my girlfriend's family to shop for anything. They have been a huge blessing for me and my family.
Then, that's it. There's nothing big of news or event but spending the day with your loved ones will always be sweet.

Notice to Explain
I've been working for more than 5 years and as per my own judgment, I'm a pretty good employee. I don't break rules and If I did, it a thing that cannot be considered as bad.
Well, I don't know if other companies do this as well. But if you have a violation, you'll be given the notice to explain and you have to defend yourself stating why you should not be held liable for such accusation.
And my streak was broken. Because of that freaking late that I've been talking about in my tweets.
In 2 years in my current campaign, my late arrival only happens once before this one and it's very sad. I'm really hoping that they'll consider what happened.
I don't want to count my efforts for the company but if I'll be held liable, I don't know what will I fell.
Hahaha.

And it was unexpected traffic. It's so crazy that if you go to Alabang from Alabang, it will take you an hour. That's how bad it was.12:30 to 2pm - Sucat— Jabes (@sebajisoka) December 10, 2019

Toucan Brazillian BBQ
Since Jassiee and I went to Binondo on the day of my birthday. I didn't have a chance to celebrate with my family.
So, after several shouts and fighting and misunderstanding, we went to a Mexican Buffet restaurant called Toucan Brazillian BBQ Buffet Restaurant, so we can celebrate with food.
We were the only customer for the night and the food is great. The BBQs are the best and those grilled fruits are amazing. I didn't even mention yet the Ice Creams.
We got different kinds of meat, from Pork, different kinds of Beef, Chicken and of course, Shrimps.
Thank You Lord for this family. And for the food.

JIL Muntinlupa 30th Anniversary
I attended the JIL Muntinlupa 30th anniversary and it's always fun seeing familiar faces around you.
I saw those performances and hear their worship to God, thanking Him for His faithfulness through those years. I attended their anniversary without any expectation of what will happen.
I heard the teaching that will always inspire us to be better in our faith in God and be like an eagle that soars higher than the storms. I missed those close to the heart songs that I grew up singing. Apparently, they are the same church that I had in the previous years.
After the program, I happened to talk, give high-fives and hugs to those amazing people that I've been with. They are the same sweet and funny people, too bad I didn't have a picture with all of them.
I love them all and It's amazing that there are no grudges held ever since we left a few years ago. God has been good, and He's always been.

Life Lesson from flying a drone
So, I recently presented my Passion in the Human Project, TaskUs' version of a salary increase. Basically, what they did is they give you a salary increase base on your performance and if you presented a valid passion or purpose, it has a kicker. This is to help you fuel that passion and purpose.
It's a support for improving yourself and for doing good to the community. My presentation was 2 months ago and, I already received the increase.
But there's this one thing that one of the panels asked me. She asked me what did I learn from flying a drone, aside from the technicals. I told them that I received a new perspective on life. I didn't elaborate fully by what I meant but since we're on my blog, let me.
Flying a drone and watching the camera pans everywhere is quite a cinematic and life-changing view for me. You see, I've been taking pictures for a while now, from micro to macro, from high to low angle but I never really taken anything from above, looking down.
That gives me a new set of ideas and a refreshing view of things because sometimes we see and look at things on a daily basis and we thought that we've known everything about it.
It goes the same with the person you love. The time will come that we'll get used to them and their presence. But when we started to view things differently, looking at the things that we don't normally seek and before you know it, we're being amazed by those new discoveries.
It's not a different person but we're looking at the same person from a different angle.
Another thing that I learned is realizing that we're tiny people, small people trying to do things and trying to survive. We encounter problems and struggle with life. Then I thought to myself, how does God view these things, these small people roaming around.
I believe that God is huge and far. He's so big that there's nothing that He can't do and He sees things from afar. But I also believe that He's small God and He is close to our hearts.
Why did I include God here? Well, because of what I call "God's View", it's a drone's camera representing God's eye looking at us. In His eyes, we're small but He sees everything. He knows what's happening in our world and in our lives. He is also close to us and He understands.
