Re: christmas12 Years AgoIt will be both. I will miss my grandmother since she died a couple days after, and I'm sure I'm going to get yelled at. I always am. But at the same time, I will be getting some good presents. I'll be online probably all day anyways, so if anybody wants to talk they can just message me. :3

Re: christmas12 Years AgoFor me, it'll probably be a pretty bad one. I mean, we all have that initial excitement early in the morning. Most of us wake up and go, "It's Christmas!"but I think after the excitement wears off in the twenty minutes afterwards, I'll probably spend it blaring Punk Goes Christmas and trying to avoid everyone.

Re: christmas12 Years AgoIt would be like always...nothing special. I will be going to my Church and then, back at home. We don't do anything because of my father. Never had a X-mas tree. But, for me it's normal not to have a funny day...
If you need someone to talk to, I'll be here. K. |

Re: christmas12 Years AgoI hate christmas, i always have. I grew up poor and i'm still pretty much poor, and i KNOW that my family is poor. I can't stand seeing all these commercials for stuff that i know me and my family will NEVER be able to afford,because i know that they are at home watching the same commercials trying to hide how much they want what they see because they know it will hurt my parents. I hate it with all my heart, it's so misguided and sickly sweet

Re: christmas12 Years AgoChristmas is one of those holidays that are either very good, or a huge disappointment. Receiving too many gifts is momentarily thrilling, but soon leaves a bad taste in one's mouth and a hollow feeling in the heart. Over the years, I have found that the best Christmas times for me have been those where I make time to do what I want- play games with friends, do some service, go sing in a choir, be with family, people watch at the mall, etc. The last thing I do during the holidays is spend too much time alone- unless I am writing- because that can be bad for me. I start thinking about myself too much and depression/anxiety is not too far behind. To focus on the material things is the last thing I believe anyone should do- unless they are making material things for others- presents like a collection of stories, a handmade piece of furniture, a painting, poetry, a dinner, or any other thing that you could give someone to show how much you care. It sounds corny, but some of my best Christmas memories are those when I received nothing, but didn't care because I was with family, in choir, church, traveling along snowy mountain roads, either on foot or in a car, or just driving around looking at the lights. I had a friend who hated holidays- Christmas especially- because it was a trigger for her to start cutting herself. Eventually I would get a phone call from her (from double lockup somewhere). All she wanted was someone "sane" to come and talk with her for a while. I would show up and sit and talk with her, play cards with her, and watch her slowly come out of her bad place. She said that the visits helped drive the demons away, some of which she was sure were real. (And after I saw some of the pictures she had drawn of these beings, I was starting to believe her.) With the passage of time, and the help of a dedicated group of friends, she started to cut on herself less and less- until the time came when she no longer saw holidays as times to dread, but more of something she felt more confident about either participating in or steering clear of, without the formerly toxic effects.If I could give one piece of advice about the Christmas, it would be to look on it as a time to plan ahead for so that you can be of service to others. Getting out of oneself is not just something for people struggling with inner demons- it is something that everyone needs to do to stay healthy.Don't know why I went on so long, but hope this helps...

Re: christmas12 Years AgoSorry, but I won't be doing anything that has to do with Christmas. I don't celebrate and I'm not going to start now. Thank you.
