Dear PokeCommunity

Dear PokeCommunity,

Christmas is just around the corner. My question to you is this - What are you doing this Christmas day? Are you doing the same as you do every year? Do you visit friends and/or have other family members over for dinner/present unwrapping? Tell us about your Christmas plans!

Also, Merry Christmas to each and every one of you!

With love,

KJ

Probably laying around and doing the same thing I always do when I'm home. Christmas is just another day for me, with the added bonus of the special feeling it brings.

Well, I am really excited for tomorrow; first the excitement of the presents and then around midday I'm going to a huge house party with my friends and it's goooona be the definition of insanity epicness!

It'll be just like any other day - the fun stuff comes after Christmas, when I vacation to California. On Christmas Day, I'll be doing the usual, plus eating a fancily-crafted Duck a l'Orange and other fancy little things with fancy delight. We don't open presents on Christmas Day anymore, so there's not even that to look forward to, really.

I just spent the day at my parents's place, opened a few gifts, and had prime rib for Christmas dinner. The usual. Nothing exciting like clubbing or going to the mall or theme park or anything...

Most of the Christmas fun happened on Christmas Eve, so on Christmas Day it was basically an afterparty of last night lol.

I got reunited with cousins, opened presents, eat sooooo much food, played Just Dance 4, SSBB, and drank sooooo much wine. Rinse and repeat today. :P

Dear Kanto_Johto,

Christmas has obviously passed but I see no reason why not to answer. Christmas started out icky, tension due to family disagreements pervading the atmosphere of my mother's home. I came real close to just lighting up a fatty (I saved mango-flavored paper for the occasion) in the guest room and watching King of the Hill all day, but it didn't take more than a couple drinks for everyone to put aside their differences and start drunk-gambling with dominoes. It turned out to be a pretty nice time. Christmas isn't over for my family, yet, though. My mom's boyfriend's family does two Christmases, both loaded with gifts. So more presents & drunk gambling to come! I see this as good karma following all the years of only having my mother to spend Christmas with.

I had a very busy Christmas Day!

In the morning we had family over for breakfast because they had other plans and breakfast was all they could do to fit us in. That means we didn't get to open presents until they left at about 1pm. Then after that I went to my future roommates' place for lunch and we did the present opening thing later in the afternoon. Then I left at 5:30 and picked up another of my friends whose parents abandoned her for Christmas to go to QLD to visit her brother, then I brought her back to my place for Christmas dinner :D

It was a great day!
