Ang mga radyo ay muling nagpapa-alala sa mga batang babae at lalake na nagbebenta ng mga parol sa kalsada. Ang mga pamilihan ay nilalabas na ang mga hamon at queso de bola. Ang mga tao, hindi na mapakali sa paghahanay ng kanilang bibigyan ng mga regalo. Tunay nga na ang lahat, alam nang sasapit na muli ang Kapaskohan.
The radio stations are starting to remind us of the boys and girls selling lanterns on the streets. The markets are bring out the ham and cheese. The people are already scrambling to list down the ones they are giving gifts to. Truly, everyone knows that Christmas is coming.
With the introduction of mode-specific mascots in our community, we thought that what would be a better way to feature them than a contest!
Why the theme? It should be obvious if you're Filipino — It's the "ber" months, it's practically Christmas already. If you somehow still have no idea what we're looking for, here's some ideas:
- The mascots are having a gift exchange at a Christmas party.
- Krysta is being pulled away by Primrea from the mic before she starts singing Frank Sinatra's My Way at a family gathering. (By the way, why not check osu! PH Tourney Staff's cover of the song as well?)
- Punica is tirelessly wrapping lumpia for the noche buena dinner, while the other mascots are helping her cook.
- The mascots are hanging a parol at the doorway. (Much cuter if it's Primrea struggling to reach the top of the door.)
- The mascots are having fun roaming around the village singing Christmas carols for some money.
- Krysta and Punica having a debate with which is the better kakanin to eat after Simbang Gabi: Puto bumbong or Bibingka.
- Primrea carefully putting an apple in a Lechong Baboy's mouth, while the other mascots are cheering her on
