I’m definitely a Santa when it comes to Christmas!
It’s my favorite time of the year. I love when everyone gets together and spreads the joy! I’m also pretty religious around this time (even though I should be religious like all the time),,, but! I love being with my family and decorating and drinking hot chocolate... receiving gifts and eating good, too!
I'm not excited for Christmas Eve/Christmas Day themselves because honestly they are always very boring and sometimes stressful, but I am looking forward to seeing the whole Christmas season unfold in general and seeing increasing amounts of festivities/cheer everywhere I go. I just love this time of year, seeing decorations and hearing Christmas music makes me so happy!
I am SO excited for Christmas!!! I started up a small business in April and it has been booming so ive made a lot of money to buy presents for my loved ones, especially my fianc?! I cant wait to surprise him with all the goodies he deserves, as he hasn't typically ever had a really "big" Christmas before. :') We will also be baking Christmas treats and making the majority of dinner on Christmas!! He's very good at cooking and teaches me a lot
I'm really excited! Not so much for the actual day of Christmas (I'm always slightly bummed the day of since that means it's over haha), but I love this time of year. I love seeing all the lights up around town, having decorations around my house, hearing Christmas music on the radio, and watching Christmas movies! I'm also happy because this year I'm working in a nursery school and I love planning crafts and games to make the holiday season more fun for all my kids.
I’m not very excited towards it, guess cause I’m older now and I’m gonna have to be around my sister who’s a total ***** towards me and hates me just because of my existence. She’s 30 too, I’m 18. Shouldn’t she’s be the mature one? Sorry to rant.
I actually get depressed when it comes, because once it comes, it feels like winter is over in a flash. November and December are the happiest times of the year for me - the furthest away from the heat, tornadoes (usually), bugs, etc. So the time is always one to be treasured.
I guess I'm pretty neutral about it. There are things I like about Christmas, such as the lights and decorations, some of the Christmas movies and the general atmosphere. But there is also a lot that I don't like...cold weather, the stress of too many family gatherings, the traffic and crowds. So the positives and negatives sort of cancel each other out now.
When I was young, Christmas was easily my second favorite holiday and I looked forward to it every year. But the older I get, the more responsibilities weigh me down around this time of year.
I'm a Grinch I guess. Christmas means a lot of anxiety to me. First, there is always someone who gets sick or injured, then I worry for the pets who might eat decorations, there are more thieves around, my mail may get lost, I have zero money to spend on Christmas, family gatherings are way too stressful, there will be too many questions, talking, and stuff I don't want to hear. Really I get anxious over the smallest things. On the good side, they may be vodka-cranberry shooters...or not.
Yes and no. Christmas is my second favorite holiday behind Halloween and I love a lot of stuff about the season. I enjoy baking cookies in the lead-up to Christmas to share with loved ones. I like listening to Christmas music. I like finding the perfect gifts for people, and seeing their reactions when they open them. I like decorating the Christmas tree and enjoy seeing the lights illuminate a dark room.
However, I have some things coming up in January that I'm quite anxious about and it has been negatively affecting my mental and emotional states. I'm still looking forward to Christmas and am about to get into the swing of things, but I don't feel like I'll be able to really enjoy the season 100% this year.
Honestly no. I don't like being around my family because they honestly judge a lot about me as soon as I walk in the door because of what I wear. They used to not do it, but they always seem to make a joke out of me by hitting low blow areas. And I don't really let peoples' opinion influence my clothes or makeup... so I deal with it rather than let them strip my identity. I'm also tired of going broke this time of year because everyone's birthday seems to be around the same time as Christmas, lol. It's just an emotional mess for me and my wallet.
I would be if it wasn't the time of year when mine and my mother's SAD wasn't kicking in. Especially since the shock of losing my grandfather last year has finally worn off, and my uncle died this year; my mother isn't handling this season well at all, and I nothing i can do well help her feel better. so I'm trying to be positive, for her sake.
i absolutely love christmas. i have already done all my christmas shopping and all my presents are wrapped and placed under the tree. i am so pumped to eat a bunch of food on crissy and open pressies with my fam
