Sorry If This Has Been Posted Or Is In The Incorrect Place.


This is a thread where we can talk about christmas, new year and any other celebrations taking place at around this time.

I'll Get Things Started

Do You Have Your Christmas Decorations Up Yet.

I Don't hopefully this weekend - with a real tree =)

Celebrations is the place I think.

I haven't started any Christmas preparation yet.

When does everyone break up from school?
I break up on the 21st.

I Was torn between celebrations and other chat and i went for the latter.

I break up from school on the 20th

We've got the tree/decorations up already
I'm actually not sure when the break starts xD
How do you guys plan to spend Christmas/New Years?

Christmas will be spent at my grandma's house, and then for the next 3 days after that, I'll be house-sitting/dogsitting for a friend of mine...make a little extra cash over the holidays :D for New Years, I'm going with my youth group to a sports complex to play whirlyball and go laser tagging

Christmas at my Mum's with a visit to my Dad's. And New Year with my Mum

It'll be normal for me.

At home , open presents, spend all day playing with presents,have christmas dinner etc.

New Year, I dont really celebratemuch I just stya up until midnight. :D

Hmph...how racist. A christmas one and not a Channukah one. Whatever, I'm helping my friend put up his christmas decorations tomorrow.

Me Too, Last year i went to my first new year party. I nearly fell asleep ^^;

I'd change first post to channukah too.

Isnt is pronounced without the c?

Scythemaster was just joking.
He doesn't really think you're racist

[edited after receiving a PM]

I was really quite worried there.

I should have called it the festive season, but i didnt think

Meh.
saying christmas is fine.
alteast is beats saying "have a very ramidomic Christmaschannukahkwanzawintersoltice."

Anyway, for me,
I'm finally getting a real tree this year! :3

Watch out for the pine needles they end up EVERYWHERE. I found one in my hair last year ¬.¬

The only reson why we didn't have real tree since I was like- 5 or so was because I was small enough to climb under and pull pine needles from the bottom. and by the end of chirstmas, half the tree was gone.

Tha's why we got a fake one.
It hurt to crawl under it.

We got a fake one, but Mum decided to be different and go for real and we all got like cut up bringing it in, so know i leave the bringing the tree job to my mother and brother

Heh. I know when I get my real tree, I'm totally leaving the tree bringing to my dad and brother.

Anyway, I only got one prime thing on my christmas list- an MP3 player or ipod.
hopefully i get one.

I've already got an Ipod, i got one last year but i broke so i had to have it replaced so i got i new one on december 1st.

My big thing is a new mobile phone this year

Title edited to encourage discussion on all celebrations taking place around this time.

And we've had our Christmas tree up since the end of November. Plastic ftw.

We also have our tree up, which is both a good and a bad thing. It's nice for my family to look at, but... uhh, let me just say that our dogs keep confusing it with the real trees outside. (Sigh.) At least we don't have presents under there yet? XD;

But anyway, I'm planning to go to my grandparent's house, as usual. <3 I have a feeling this will be a fun Christmas for my family, since everyone will be together and my grandmother is doing much better, health-wise.

The only thing that'd make it perfect is snow, but I doubt we'll get any. ;~;

My tree still isnt up, plus i'm starting to get craving for tomorrows advent chocolates
