♥ ~ All I want for Christmas, is you. ~ ♥

Nup. Most of the good presents were from parents, anyway, which I asked for. :'D

5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents?
Not really, either. Most people know me fairly well.

6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
Anything that they needed, really. Food, clothes, toys, anything.
 
I interpret Christmas as the time for sharing. I, generally, share gifts/Christmas cards to everyone close to me and so do they. We all love each other during Christmas. :D
 
Yes, I do like Christmas (Except for the confusion of putting my name when putting 'Merry Christmas' down) but I really never have had a reason. But the aspect that would be my favourite is just simply the fun that everyone can have. Watching everyone goofing around and singing their Christmas carols is wonderful to see. Me and my family don't really do anything for Christmas except for watching the new Doctor Who and the Wallace and Gromit Christmas specials as we don't know our relatives all that well, so really, it's just like an ordinary day for us as we don't ever get presents any more, just different amount of money for the celebration. The amount of money doesn't bother me in the slightest, actually, I think I get too much money at Christmas. The reason I get a lot of money is because it is my birthday is three days after Christmas, Christmas money and normal holiday money. Overwhelming presents? Well last year I was surprised when my older brother got me a new game that I had been wanting to get for ages, but again, as we don't get many presents nothing too overwhelming for me neither worst presents. I think no present can be that bad, at least the person has thought about actually giving me something.

If I gave something to a poor family, I'd surly give them something that they want: toys, clothes, food, but most of all, I'd want to give them something to remember; something to smile at in the future. I'd probably end up inviting them to my house just to have a lot of fun and watching the Christmas television or playing some sort of game.
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
Yes. It does the economy lots of good.

2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
The creativity that can spring up when sellers try to outdo each other.

3. Do you think the amount of presents you recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrrible? No. I'll be happy to receive presents at all. I generally save up/work the whole year to earn myself enough for a present I want.

4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents? No.

5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents? No.

And Lastly;
6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
A warm home for the night?
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
Yes, I get money and presents. ;p
2. What's your favorite aspect of Christmas?
Sound barrage.
3. Do you think the amount of presents yo receive, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrible?
Nope. It determines on the person that gave you a present loves you truly from his/her heart.
4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
PSP
5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents?
I got an underwear last Christmas but it's still useful anyway.
6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
Hope.
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
Yep! It's wintertime, it's a nice general atmosphere, and it's nice to try to figure out what I'm going to get/give for presents!
2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
Meeting with family. As a kid, that was the time of year we'd try our best to get out to Wisconsin to visit extended family. It was a rarity to see them at all, maybe once or twice a year at best, so it was always nice to see them. Also, the food was great! And presents, can't forget presents.
3. Do you think the amount of presents yo recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrrible?
Not at all! What makes it great/terrible depends on the people you're with and how the day goes overall.
4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
Pokemon Gold, way back in the day. Pokemon Stadium 2 the year after, iirc. Technically the PSP and copy of Birth by Sleep my roommate gave me is part Christmas present, I liked those too. I'm starting to sense a pattern here.
5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents?
One Christmas my parents got me underwear, which while appreciated, kind of made me raise my eyebrows a bit. That same year, I also got Pokemon FireRed -- which is only weird because I already had LeafGreen and I thought they knew that. :( I basically gave that to my little brother who wanted it anyway.
6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
I'd say it depends on the family, what they need the most. I'd want it to be something they could really want or really use.
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
Meh, I don't love it like I use to.
I just enjoy it because I get to see my friends and family.

2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
Friends and family

3. Do you think the amount of presents yo recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrrible?
I do buy people presents, but I don't really mind if they don't buy me or anything.
When I was younger, I would get up early to open presents, now I am not bothered and will get up at my normal time of 10-11 if my sister hasn't already woken me up.

4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
I have yes.

5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents?
We all get them. I knitted jumper or something just lame in general.

And Lastly;
6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
Uhhhh, would depend on that child. If homeless, something warm so on so on.
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
I love Christmas. It is, by far, my favorite holiday. It's just the most wonderful time of the year and it's my birthday '-'
2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
Every. Single. Little. Thing:
The weather becomes chilly, which allows you to dress in cute, warm winter clothes.
Christmas music plays, and it fills my heart with warmth.
Seeing Christmas lights, decorations, and all that jazz just..makes me so happy. In my town, we are known for our amazing ~Wonderland of Lights~. :'D
Seeing all of my family - some of them don't even come in for Thanksgiving, and so it's nice that most of them all come in <3
Eating with aforementioned family - the food is always delish '-'
Presents are nice, I guess, but aren't important in the grand scheme of Christmas, to me.

3. Do you think the amount of presents you receive, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrible?
Quite the opposite. Christmas is never terrible.

4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
A Nintendo Wii when being told that they were ~all sold out everywhere~ [this was back when they first came out ok]
My first iPhone
My GPS
My BIRTH

5. Have you received any terrible/weird presents?
The only terrible presents are when people are like: "OH HAY. IT'S CHRISTMAS. AND IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY. SAMEGIFT.......HOLLA!!"
That just screams laziness and distaste.

6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
Allow them to appreciate Christmas in the way I appreciate it. I love it so much; and if I could pass that feeling on . . . it would truly be the best Christmas ever :D
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
I used to. Not so much anymore, it's become an "open presents, go back to bed" thing for me. Sadly, Christmas has lost its magic as I've become an old man:/
2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
Colored "chaser" Christmas lights and fiber-optic Christmas trees. I'm all about the interior and exterior lighting.
3. Do you think the amount of presents yo recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrrible?
YES! Every holiday season, I keep a ledger documenting my gift expenditures down to the penny. On Christmas Day, I total up the price of all my presents (made easier since receipts are usually included for returning purposes) and compute my net gain or loss for the holiday season. Fortunately, my finances have been in the black most years.
4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
Not really, Still waiting on that '85 Buick LeSabre from that cheapskate Santa...
5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents?
Usually underwear, but by Christmas I need some desperately :P So more weird than terrible.
6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
N/A. Being the greedy person I am I only give presents to the rich with the assurance that I will get my investment back with interest. Hoping that they don't try to pull a Bernie Madoff on me...
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
yea,I like it! the real meaning of Christmas,(for Christians, at least. XD) and all other aspects.presents, getting and giving.the whole feeling.

2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
Everything.

3. Do you think the amount of presents yo recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrrible?
no, that seems a bad thing and it is. it's very rude.

4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
my iPod touch! XD

5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents?
luckily,no. >_>

6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?Hope.^
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why? Often yes. Others no, parents tend to be rude during it. After all, you do know that winter is suicide season, right?
2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas? The food, honestly. try sticking 2010 candles on a cake, see what happens.
3. Do you think the amount of presents you recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrrible? Often yes. But that's not what I enjoy the most out of it.
4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents? Yes often. 1 or 2 $300+ dollar presents and a few $60 and a $100 dollar bill nearly every year.
5. Have you recieve any terrible/wierd presents? No, not really. Although for a Christmas Eve joke my aunt gave me a staple and said "here. a gift." And the rubber poop and toilet...
6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be? Probably some old toys and some food. Otherwise, what they need the most.
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
Heck yes! It's my favorite time (because Christmas is more than a day, really) of the year - it's cold out, there's a fire crackling, my grandma makes her beastly chocolate chip cookies, there's smiles and red and green everywhere, decorations are pretty (and tacky ones are fun to laugh at), and and and... yeah. I could go on, but I'd be here forever.

2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
The day I have Christmas dinner with my dad's side of the family (it isn't always Dec. 25th, so) - it's always loud, crazy, and generally leaves me with stitches in my sides from laughing so much. It's that nice fuzzy feeling, y'know? And the food is amazing, of course. ^^

3. Do you think the amount of presents you recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrible?
There's be disappointment for maybe five minutes before I get over it. So, really, no, definitely not.

4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?

Yep. The best was probably my first laptop, which was several years ago.

5. Have you recieve any terrible/weird presents?
Eh. Not that I can recall from the top of my head... I will say, though, it's a tradition within my family that my sister and I always get some form of socks. Always. x3
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
Yeppp. I only see relatives on Thanksgiving and Christmas (not recently anymore, though). Plus, who doesn't like giving and receiving gifts~

2. What's your favorite aspect of Christmas?
I like Christmas for the aforementioned reasons... Family visit, huge dinner, gift exchanging, etc. Also, when I was little, I loved staying up during Christmas Eve and sneaking out to see all of the presents under the tree. My twin brother and I sat around the tree until my parents woke up. And we made our parents wake up early. Ohhh yeahh. 8D

3. Do you think the amount of presents you receive, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrible?
I consider Christmas a disappointment if my mother ruins it. She'll go blah blah YOU SPENT WAY TOO MUCH blah blah I HOPE YOU KEPT THE RECEIPT blah blah WHERE'S MY PRESENT blah blah hangover heh ~o~

4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
Unfortunately, I believe my brother always gets the nicer presents. He gets the better consoles, games, electronics, clothes (I hate the clothes Santa~ picks out for me...) and DUDE he gets Blue Eyes White Dragon, I get Dark Magician fndgfjd I always lost. If I had to pick the best Christmas present we both got, it would be a go-cart. heck. yeah! Way to break the wallet. It's sold and gone now. :/

5. Have you receive any terrible/weird presents?
Umm I asked for a jar of cherries. And I got a jar of cherries. Neato.

6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
Food? Food is bliss. ;o; Hm okay, if I had to give one present (to someone locally, as I'm wary of online shopping and stuff.. >:<), it would be a cell phone. It's something I've done without for a while, and I'm really happy to have it finally. Moreover, every parent/guardian should know where their child is...

1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
I love Christmas. It's my favorite time of year. The music, the decorations, friends and family...and there's just a feeling in the air that's not there any other time of the year.
2. What's your favourite aspect of Christmas?
I love being able to spend time with my family - specifically waking up Christmas morning and having everyone gathered around the tree opening presents. It's a moment that you only get once a year.
3. Do you think the amount of presents you recieve, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrrible?
Not really. I've gotten past the point where I get disappointed with Christmas presents and such. We can't really afford to buy "big" presents, so it's more about the thought and the time as a family.
4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
I'd have to say the best present I've ever gotten was my first piano back when I was 8. I had just started playing then, and, well...almost 15 years later I have a music degree and am getting ready to go for my master's.
5. Have you received any terrible/weird presents?
Other than the occasional hideous clothes that my grandmother buys (the last one being this really ugly jacket a couple years ago), I've never gotten anything really terrible or outlandish.

And Lastly;
6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
I'd love for them to just be able to enjoy Christmas without having to worry about money or anything. Have a big Christmas dinner, have friends and family near, toys for the kids, stuff to help the parents get back on their feet, etc.
 
1. Do you generally like Christmas? Why?
Obviously, I see my family gets together, but that also happens on many occasions. I do like the big dinner. Other than the obvious, though, I think I haven't found the true meaning of Christmas. I just play along. :0

2. What's your favorite aspect of Christmas?
I guess spending time with my family. It's not exclusively in Christmas, but at least it's longer in Christmas, that's notable.

3. Do you think the amount of presents you receive, the amount of money you spend determines if your Christmas is great or terrible?
Assuming better presents make a better Christmas, there's no need to spend a lot of money. It's the "coolness" of the present what is worth.

4. Have you had any overwhelmingly great presents?
I've had cool presents. But I'd have to think very hard. Normally, I don't get more excited for one present than for another one. In fact, I don't get that much excited for many presents. But I do remember really wanting a N64 when I was little. Too bad the store was out of Stadium 2. I had to buy Stadium 1. Dx

5. Have you receive any terrible/weird presents?
Well, I don't get excited at clothes, so those must be my "worse" presents. But even if they are boring, they are practical. I don't think I've received a particularly bad present.

6. If you were to give only one present to a poor child or family for that matter, what would it be?
I'd get to know them, then give something that they should interest in. I don't really believe in giving presents to strangers. (I mean, support, yes, but presents are a lot more personal.)
