It\u2019s almost that time of the year when houses get decked out with lights and baubles, gifts are given and received, merry tunes take over the airwaves, and ninongs<\/em> (godfathers) and ninangs<\/em> (godmothers) all go missing in action \u2014yup, it\u2019s almost Christmas.<\/span><\/p>\n

While everyone looks forward to the joy of the Yuletides, it can also be very stressful and tiresome. That is why it\u2019s important that you #TasteTheChill by keeping in touch with your pals. In anticipation of all the Christmas parties coming your way where you\u2019ll soon be reunited with lots of familiar faces, here are the five friends you\u2019re sure to encounter:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Crafty Cathy<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Known within your group as the certified DIY junkie, Crafty Cathy whips out the home-made baked goods wrapped in an intricate wrapper faster than you can say \u201cMerry Christmas!\u201d She loves to cook, bake, and craft, which means you can assume that she was the most enthusiastic contributor to the Christmas potluck and decorations committee.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Quotable quote: \u201cHa? No! My cinnamon and honey-infused orange-spiced Christmas cake wasn\u2019t hard to bake at all.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

    Where to find them: Probably giving out food recommendations at the buffet or handing out the name tags and photo props she lovingly labored over at the registration table.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    2. The Certified Comedian<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Here\u2019s the funny friend you can rely on for both the best jokes and the corniest puns. His witty one-liners and pun-tastic retorts pepper the party, making sure that there\u2019s never a dull moment with this dude. The only serious moment for this guy will be when he misses the last piece of crispy lechon.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Quotable quote: \u201cYou didn\u2019t bring the boss a gift? YULE be sorry!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

    Where to find them: Just look for the table where people are erupting in fits of laughter. He\u2019s bound to be at the center of the ruckus.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    3. The Humble Lucky One<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    Avid traveller and gadget collector, this is the pal whose Instagram feed is everyone\u2019s legit #InstaGoals. She never boasts of her fab lifestyle, but you can\u2019t help but envy-stalk her whenever she posts photos about her new travel or gadget haul. At the party, you\u2019re sure to see her sporting either clothes and\/or accessories from out of town, and the latest cellphone\u2014all signs that she\u2019s just on a whole different level.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Quotable quote: Go to her IG page and look at a photo she took during one of her trips to Palawan with the caption: \u201cWaking up to Mondaymornings like this. #blessed #beach\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

    Where to find them: In a corner where they\u2019ll be sharing their travel escapades on their newest tablet. Just look for all the gushing and squealing and you\u2019ll surely spot them in there.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    4. Mr. Documentarian<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    Both a blessing and a curse, this party staple is bound to capture every moment of the event and post it online. That means whether you were snapped showing off your killer dance moves or you were caught stuffing your face with bibingka, Mr. Documentarian is sure to post it on multiple platforms of social media.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Quotable quote: \u201cDali! Face-swap kayo ni Santa!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

    Where to find them: Wherever the Wi-Fi is the fastest. They might be hard to spot at first, especially since their faces will be glued to a screen practically the whole time.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    5. The Super Chillmate<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    Ultra reliable and chill, this is the friend who never shows any anxiety but isn\u2019t a pushover either. The Chillmate is the one you go to for anything: from cool conversations to sure-win tag-teams at the parlor games. The Chillmate goes with the flow but also follows the beat of his own drum. If you\u2019re lucky, there will be more than one Chillmate at your party. The best part is you can become one, too!<\/span><\/p>\n

    Quotable quote: \u201c#TasteTheChill every day to make the blues go away.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

    Where to find them: Anywhere. Literally. The Chillmate comes in all forms and sizes, and can fit in practically everywhere. The mark of a real chillmate is a bottle of chilled Sosro Fruit Tea in hand. With the taste of real fruit tea in Guava, Strawberry, Apple, and uber-unique Freeze (a mix of Strawberry and Grape, with an icy aftertaste)\u2014you\u2019re sure to see an increasing number of party-goers reaching for this drink that millennial go-getters know and love.<\/span><\/p>\n
