Most people during this Christmas may or may not have purchases some pyrotechnics or firecrackers. But, it has been a tradition from where I am from to light up some fireworks to celebrate Christmas Eve. Did you guys do the same?

Here in the Philippines we are very festive individuals we inherited our extravagant celebration tour friend chinese. But our government started to warn the public not to use some. Based from the statistics from the past, many accidents have caused byusing fireworks and mosr of the are including children. They lost their hands, and other parts of their body. It was because of the use of readily available cheap fireworks. How sad! And so we stick to making noise even in New Year! Merry X-mas

Well, it is actually now illegal to sell fireworks. This is actually a good thing. Why? Fireworks is a waste of money to start with, and it adds to the dangers towards health. Well, this is my own opinion though. Happy Holidays.

We lit some fireworks before midnight. It has been a tradition of our family ever since.

Well, a little would be nice. But me and my family, used to light up some, but stopped for like 10 years now. Reason for this is that, it is actually a waste of money to do so. Anyways, Merry Christmas.
