Recently, I have been thinking of how people in our community will have the chance to feel the same way for Christmas this year, amid the ongoing pandemic.
For months, we have been avoiding crowded places and keeping our distance with gatherings, which I think could create a huge gap and difference in how we celebrate various occassion.
But, as always, SM has its own way of creating a magical and joyous season not just for me, but also to a lot of Filipino families that yearn to celebrate this wonderful time of the year. Needless to say, however much stress and hassle we gotta be, we always look forward to the positive and merry side of hope and giving.
So having said how excited I am, here are some of the details on how SM can prove us that they are really anticipating a wonderful and joyous christmas for all of us;
Starting off November 6 with Christmas Launches. SM Supermalls are on-set to start their magical and delightful christmas design show-offs.
