I am currently here in Australia and we just put up our Christmas tree yesterday. Someone (Australian) came this morning to fix our window and was amazed to see the Christmas tree. 😂 We love to bring our tradition wherever we are so that somehow, we will not miss how it feels like to be home. 😊
The monsoon switch happens mostly in september. The monsoon that brings cold winds from the north going south west. Hence the 'christmas breeze' starts in september
In our home, we don't remove our Christmas decorations. It's there whole year round haha 💕 and it's okay because we love celebrating the birthday of Jesus Christ 💕💕💕
Whether knowingly or unknowingly, I love the way Lucy reacted saying “Aaaah!” Her tone there was very Filipino. They’re becoming more and more Filipino. :) Love it! 😍
Well basically its because the spirit of christmas means a lot to us. Christmas Means love, giving,and family get together. You guys know there are lots of filipinos are working far from their family. And being able able to be with thier family in christmas. We wanted this atmosphere to last long. Thats why starting sept. We started to play christmass music its kinda gives us a lot of positive vibes and excitement. This is just my opinion maybe other filipino have diffirent opinions about what i say.
Remembering my childhood most wonderful time waiting my godparent’s gifts and only time of the year I wear new lovely dress and exchange gifts at school.... reminiscing the past. I love Christmas in the Phil
we my family start celebrating Christmas in September 1st but we decorate our house after All Souls Day (Nov. 2) to give respect/mourn our loved ones who were already in heaven. I love you guys!! Keep safe and stay healthy the both of you! Merry Christmas!
One thing is beginning of BER month, most of us were excited to greet first each of one of us, friends and relatives, a "MERRY CHRISTMAS" wishing for a more merrier CHRISTMAS...
The truth is why Philippines Christmas starts at Sept. Christmas in Philippines is Love and happiness, Love for Family, love for God, love everywhere and if there is love all is Happy, thats why everybody is excited even start Christmas at Sept. Everybody wants Love and Happiness
I think the best challenge for you guys and the most interesting to see is you attend a Simbang Gabi or Night Mass (it’s actually dawn). Even not really going inside the Catholic Church and hear the full 1 hour mass, but to just experience to wake up very early in the morning, prepare, and go to church area when the mass starts which is usually 4:30 AM to about 5:00AM. Depends on the church schedules, just check them out. Even more challenging is to complete the 9(?) consecutive Simbang Gabi which starts on December 16. Have fun if you do this. Merry Christmas.
Halloween doesn't exist in squatter's area, so i can't relate LOL, but srsly, Halloween is not celebrated in the Philippines because it's more of a pagan celebration compare to Catholic imposed event.
During Halloween, we only celebrated it by scaring kids, pranking by using scary masks or insects, and also putting candles everywhere for settings. Lastly, the Horror Scary Tellings for Scarying Us.
Additional information/facts and deeper reasons why Filipinos' Christmas time starts in September. It is due to our Religious Solemnities and Feasts: September is the Birth Month of The Blessed Virgin Mary (September 8). I live in Cebu so Ill give you a Cebuano perspective. Cebu (Visayas, Philippines), most Religious people/families and communities celebrate Christmas from September to February (Feb.2 Feast of Presentation of known as Candelaria). The reason why most Cebuanos celebrate this long , its because in January we still have our Feast for Sto.Nino more known as Sinulog Festival. Filipinos love Feasts but more so why we are very Festive its because of our devotion and Love for God, the Blessed Virgin Mary, Angels and Saints. Hope this adds to everyone's knowledge. Have a great day!
Filipino Christmas is indeed amazing...we love life, family, tradition, food, and endless merrymaking despite problems that we face.....but who doesn't?😉
I hope both of you can make an in-depth perspective video of what you think of Filipino Christmas pros/cons, reflections, etc in the future. Keep up the good work.
The BER months,the start of the change of the atmosphere.bit by bit,there is this essence that you sense in the air.along with the somewhat cooler breeze than usual.when mall (establishments) starts to play christmas songs (AND THEY SHOULD),it uplifts the peoples' spirits and it makes peoples' moods happy and positive.
Merry X-mas! That's actually very true. spread of Christianity in the islands owe its success partly to our old pagan past, the acceptance of the new faith did not have much resistance because it was introduced in a more similar way to how our old faith was, like praying to saints could be like praying to "anitos" and so every town or city now has their own Saint they pray to and celebrate fiestas for. the coming of Amihan or the north wind is such an important event for us too, while it used to signal the end of the typhoon season, it now tells us Christmas is coming and that's the cold wind we feel this season. The sad thing is climate change, we used to feel Amihan by September but you can barely feel her now, not until November.
Filipino Christmas gradually picks up starting Sept, and ends way after New Year's day. Depending on which province you are from, it could be until Epiphany(1st Sunday of the year), Feast of the Black Nazarene (Jan 9), or Feast of the Santo Niño (3rd Sunday of the Jan; Sinulog if you're in Cebu). So, it is practically 5 months.
The North wind, Amihan brings in the cold breeze which replaces Habagat which brings rain. And nights become longer while daylight becomes shorter. 😉🇵🇭
Aside from Jose Marie Chan's "christmas in our hearts", people here also sing and play the ABS-CBN Christmas station ID's from 2009-2019 a lot. Like A LOT. (2009's "star ng pasko" being the most popular/recognizable) You'll hear those songs playing everywhere. Children also sing them while carolling. It's like an annual thing for abs-cbn. Maybe you can react to all the station ID's starting with the one from 2009. 😁
For the rest of the Visayas and Mindanao, we only play Jose Mari Chan. :) It's only Luzon that plays the ABS CBN Xmas songs in the radio stations. The south area of the country plays Jose Mari Chan and probably some of Mariah's Christmas songs
Last one: The Philippines only has two seasons. January thru April is Summer; May thru August is Rainy/wet and September thru December is Christmas Season.
As a Filipino when I 1st came to the U.S my partner would say why are u playing/listening Christmas song 🎵 it's only September people would think ur a weirdo🤣
Some of us here in the Philippines take down our Christmas trees up until February 2 (Candelaria/Candlemas), which officially ends the Christmas season in the Philippines
Wow! This was a great reaction vid! I am a Filipina, and I did not know those reasons. l guess I just took it for granted that Christmas is in the air by September 1.
I never bought into what the commercial establishments started around 30 years ago. It is a "capitalist marketing" strategy as sellers would want to pull in buyers into malls or stores by selling Christmas stocks early and having an excuse to play Christmas songs. August to September is somewhat a "dead month" for sellers. Ask anybody who are aged 50 plus. Ask the Church. But the culture caught on because "it feels good." The "Christmas in our Hearts" song by JM Chan was released in 1990.
Maybe Christmas starting in September is true for others. For our family, decorations starts after November 1 (or 2). It’s like we need to get past All Saints/Souls Day first before going full blast with Christmas decorations. Businesses I think were the ones who pushed selling Christmas merch and items as early as September (just to go with the theme of -ber months).
TAKE DOWN NOTES! As far as many is concern they do not mind the history but just the SEASON itself. Thanks for that. A few of that I have heard before and this is a refresher. The North Wind is kinda similar of Halloween.
I remember older people telling us that christmas is near when we feel this north wind blowing. In provinces, it is much colder, trees are swaying. Sad news is due to climate change, this cold north wind is not as much as colder when i was a kid. But still, it is colder compared to summer. Honestly speaking, i am expecting a lot this year, because of the pandemic, most of the workers in ncr will be working from home in their provinces, therefore the air will be colder due to reduction of air pollution caused by cars and vehicles. Hope you will experience the cold breeze this coming Christmas ☺️
Actually we Celebrate Xmas so Early and also the longest celebration even Xmas has gone by, it's also the reason why some of our Christmas Decors in our homes sometime we never remove or just let them because a few months it's September again hahahaha
When are you guys putting up your tree? Mike and Nelly got theirs and it is gorgeous..Can't wait how Lucy is going to decorate hers..probably awesome..Waiting for the next blog..
Hmmm. Interesting. But I think most Filipinos are unknowing of most of those reasons, but have adapted to the "Ber" reason berry much. A VERY advanced Merry Christmas to all!!!!
We Filipinos have the tendency to really feel the Christmas spirit early on than most people living in different countries with different cultures. Anyway, nice reaction video! Merry Christmas in advance!
George and Lucy, if u want to buy Christmas decorations i suggest you explore DAPITAN ARCADE. It's located near WELCOME ROTANDA, the boundary between Quezon city and Manila. You're gonna love going their and please vlog it😊. Stay safe always
I don't think most Filipinos do this because of the tradition/history. Maybe this is true for some people in some provinces & others could have othet interpretation. But for me what I know is that Filipinos just want to do this because of the joy ang happiness that Christmas brings. The Christmas lights. Decors. Christmas tree. Fake snow. Santa Claus & the reindeer. Cild breeze. Christmas carols, the presents, exchanging of gifts, Christmas party, the food. The Christmas ambience/atmosphere etc. And most importantly as a Christian nation is to celebrate the birth of Jesus. We just want to experience the jolliest season as long as it gets. Who doesn't want that? 😊
So, I have uncle and he's from UK and he's british and he has girlfriend which is my auntie (filipina). Its his first time to spend christmas here in the philippines. September 1 2019 we're talking about christmas decoration and he said Uncle: why are you talking about christmas? Its to early to put christmas decorations Its september not december. Yes, we know! But it's september (ber months) for filipino's september is the starting day/month to decorate your house and put the christmas lights.. (Evening) September 5 2019 We go outside the house. And he saw all the houses has christmas lights, christmas tree inside the house and he's first time to see the people caroling and he took a video of it. (Sorry for the story comment and wrong grammar)😂 is just want to share
In our home I start to put up Christmas decors only on Nov.16. Though Christmas shopping for gifts I used to start doing in September to avoid the rush.
As a kid I always found it weird that Christmas season begins in September, however I did like the opportunities to carol for Christmas money. I hope that practice is still around. It was a great deal of fun as a kid in Baguio singing house to house with friends with our guitars and bandurrias and making some money back in the 80's. Of course once in a while there would be the cheap skates and for that we would bust out that classic quick jingle; "Thank you, thank you, ang babarat ninyo thank you".
Here in the U.S., I work in an office where in my cubicle I only play Tagalog Christmas songs, so that no one (unless Filipinos) understands it. I am proud of my customs. Besides, its so sad to play such beautiful, jolly and uplifting songs in just a month. Would you say "Amen"?
Wishing miss Lucy tries making Christmas Delicacy in the Philippines... Puto Bumbong Palitaw Sapin-Sapin Bibingka Bico Puto + Dinuguan Fried Suman with drizzled condensed milk Nilupak Ube Halaya Lechon de Leche (roasted Piglet) hot chocolate drink (made from PH chocolate) hot sweet salabat Hoping you will upload a video trying to make all of these...
If you would like to try some of the amazing christmas season street food, you should go to Pampanga. In angeles city, every christmas season, there are food stalls near the old museum in front of the big old church and open early in the morning until late evening for simbang gabi. Doesn't get any more christmas-y than that. not sure how it will go during the pandemic though.
Filipino love to celebrate . they love parties and really are fun loving people...but...many Filipinos don't have jobs and they just stay home waiting for their luck.
Jorge and Lucy! Good evening! Before anything else, I love watching all your vlogs. I love the fact how much you love living here. Hope you you continue loving Ph. Now, I have a suggestion to you guys, you see HALLOWEEN in the Philippine starts from 4th week of October. Now, during this times lots of urban horror legend is feature in tv shows, as well individual stories narrated in every shows, like JESSICA SOHO show. My suggestion is you feature MAGNDANG GABI BAYAN HALLOWEEN SPECIAL no matter what year ypu feature many Filipino will relate to this. I would like to get your reaction. Will try to find myself version of this show with English dub.
In the context of "REBORN", Babies who are conceived in December are born in September of the following year. There's not a fact to back it up but it's cool to think about it whether it's just a mere coincidence or there are truths behind it. hahaha
I hear Christmas songs in 1 in the morning because of the barangays play Christmas song in the speakers full blast ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ, my entire family already put up Christmas decorations already and not just mine but most
This must be a new thing. I left the country 40 years ago and no one put up Christmas trees in November and no one celebrated Halloween. It is all a marketing trick.
I left back in 1990 and it started becoming a thing in Baguio I think around 89 or 88 it was the year after People Power, that I remember parols being hung up around the neighborhood that early. Made a killing caroling for months and thought having 500 pesos made me rich. I was around ten at the time.
This is a very interesting and intelegent discussion you're starting to have an in depth knowledge of the culture and the starts of you two to gain respect if your audience keep this intelegent reactions your followers can feel if youre knowledgeable of your subject
I’m a Filipino and grew up and stayed in the Philippines my whole life and I don’t even know why our Christmas starts in September
I suppose because it's just taken for granted that it does... ?
Good to know tho
Me too
Beacuse its ber month...
Christmas season!
Christmas is only on December 25th

what is more weird is that Christmas decor display along halloween decors when november comes ;)
We place Halloween decors outside our house, we're not placing some Christmas stuff so early so it won't mix

I don't really know who's doing Halloween in Philippines. That's just an American tradition.

So was George a radio dj back in the UK? I suddenly remember that Inka video reaction, he was very good.
When i'm 6 years old we start Caroling in the month of September and we love that 🎅
Its because of jose marie chan...sya po ang salarin.hehehe.when i hear his song,i already feel the positive vibe
Advance Merry Christmas to all filipinos 🇵🇭🥰
Advance Merry Christmas MGA FILIPINOS!!!😎💖🎁🎄🎀
Ooh George worked in a radio station, this explains why he talks the way he does and the style of his voice. I like your narrating skills George!
We Pinoys don’t wait till after thanksgiving to start our Christmas season. Christmas season is our thanksgiving season.
Its September 16 Now and We Start to Count down into 100 Days Before Christmas.

It hurts that a typhoon just destroyed many of the Filipinos houses and flooded their things

We just went along with the tradition that Christmas🎄 start in September and dont question why we put up decorations so early. 🎄⭐🎄⭐🎄⭐
maybe some member of the families don.t work and have a lot of time to do the decorations while in other countries they work even on xmas day

Hi lucy and george, why not start doing a christmas countdown on every video you upload so that we viewers will get excited as well.
I don't think most Filipinos do this because of the tradition/history. Maybe this is true for some people in some provinces & others could have othet interpretation. But for me what I know is that Filipinos just want to do this because of the joy ang happiness that Christmas brings. The Christmas lights. Decors. Christmas tree. Fake snow. Santa Claus & the reindeer. Cild breeze. Christmas carols, the presents, exchanging of gifts, Christmas party, the food. The Christmas ambience/atmosphere etc. And most importantly as a Christian nation is to celebrate the birth of Jesus. We just want to experience the jolliest season as long as it gets. Who doesn't want that? 😊
So, I have uncle and he's from UK and he's british and he has girlfriend which is my auntie (filipina). Its his first time to spend christmas here in the philippines.
September 1 2019 we're talking about christmas decoration and he said
Uncle: why are you talking about christmas?
Its to early to put christmas decorations
Its september not december.
Yes, we know! But it's september (ber months) for filipino's september is the starting day/month to decorate your house and put the christmas lights..
(Evening) September 5 2019
We go outside the house. And he saw all the houses has christmas lights, christmas tree inside the house and he's first time to see the people caroling and he took a video of it.
(Sorry for the story comment and wrong grammar)😂 is just want to share
I just want to share*
In our home I start to put up Christmas decors only on Nov.16. Though Christmas shopping for gifts I used to start doing in September to avoid the rush.
As a kid I always found it weird that Christmas season begins in September, however I did like the opportunities to carol for Christmas money. I hope that practice is still around. It was a great deal of fun as a kid in Baguio singing house to house with friends with our guitars and bandurrias and making some money back in the 80's. Of course once in a while there would be the cheap skates and for that we would bust out that classic quick jingle; "Thank you, thank you, ang babarat ninyo thank you".
That explains it! No wonder Willy Revillame has a famous Christmas song "Boom Tarat-tarat!".
Sometimes Filipino Homes don’t even take out some of the decorations like Christmas lights and stuff
The Tarats are also the inspiration for the song Boom Tarat Tarat
BY THE WAY ... LUCY ... YOU ARE SO GORGEOUS ...
Ang UA-camr na gipit sa Pilipino kumakapit
110 more days till Christmas woohoo
jumped right here after I finished watching their other reaction video. binge watching juicy reacts for hours now
It does keep cold during these months so they could also refer to it as the BRRRR months
That's why? It's more fun in the philipines beacause of long celebration😊😊😊
you should try and see the Christmas display at the Landmark in Makati
Hi ay am from Filipino and merry Christmas 🎄

Jorge and Lucy! Good evening! Before anything else, I love watching all your vlogs. I love the fact how much you love living here. Hope you you continue loving Ph. Now, I have a suggestion to you guys, you see HALLOWEEN in the Philippine starts from 4th week of October. Now, during this times lots of urban horror legend is feature in tv shows, as well individual stories narrated in every shows, like JESSICA SOHO show. My suggestion is you feature MAGNDANG GABI BAYAN HALLOWEEN SPECIAL no matter what year ypu feature many Filipino will relate to this. I would like to get your reaction.
