[12-25-2005]Christmas Day

[Shane]

First Thread in the Event Forum - Looks like its for christmas. :P


Use this thread to discuss everything about christmas day.

[Shane]

Here are a few good conversational topics:
What you know/think you are getting.
What you are going to be doing throughout the day.
Who you are spending it with.

[Patriot1776]

My family has already told me what I am getting. They know that I prefer to concentrate on the religious aspect of the holiday.

[Shane]

So what are you getting?

Your religious, nice to see that some people are not oosing touch with what christmas is all about. :)

[Patriot1776]

Xbox and three games

1.Men of Valor
2.Brothers in Arms:Earned in Blood
3.Conflict:Global Terror

[Haunting_Echoes]

I hate the fact that I won't get to spend Christmas with my fiance, it sucks. But meh, next year I will. Hopefully.

[Sponge'K'nob]

I dont want anything for christmas really, just to be with family and people who are close to you! I think thats whats magic about it.
my mum said she might get me an i-pod, but i dont like asking for things, not like a few years ago, I would ask for everything! Love is the best christmas present ever!
Im gonna have a sleep christmas morning for a change, usually im first up on street :P (even last year!) i wanted to sleep but my mum was that excited she woke me up(bloody kid) Get up about 9:30 have a nice breakfast, some of family come round during the day, then while my mum cooks I usually meet up with a few mates in this garage and then I go home and then me my mum n dad go round to some friends at christmas night where lots of people go and we all have a drink...usually my n lasses go out to meet some lads though *typical*
dont know who im spending it with this year, last year i had a bf! *thinks about gettin one right now*

[DJDanny2020]

8 weeks today :| i dont really wanna think about it just yet but i plan to go to meadowhall when i get paid to do some xmas shopping.

[Brianna.]

I hate christmas.

I'm not religious, so it holds no significance, my parents gave up buying me things about two years ago, so it's just another day to me.

[Mamfy]

I love christmas. I enjoy the atmosphere. All the decorations. For some reason it is a day when everyone seems to be happy. All my family are happy and that is the best present I can get, knowing my family are all happy. My mum does the best decorations, she is so good at that, and she makes the nicest christmas meal for me and my family. (I am a vegetarian so it is harder, but she makes gorgeous things for me)
My little brother is usually REALLY excited and wants to open all his presents atr once lol (typical:P) But I normally like staying in bed til about 9. And then having breakfast with my family, and just being with them. Then we usually get dinner prepared, then while everything is cooking, go out for a nice walk. Then we eat dinner and feel nice and plump, watch the queens speech, and then open the main presents we get. It's nice because we each buy each other gifts. So they're from the heart.

[Haunting_Echoes]

I'm not religious either, but I still love christmas, the fact that people can just get on without arguing most of the time. And this christmas is particularly special, for one it's my first christmas being engaged, which is great, and this is the first year that my brother hasn't been living with us, so he's coming home for christmas, which will be great, because much as I hate him, he'll be home for christmas. To be honest, I'm just happy because my family will be together for christmas, no work, no uni... Just us.

[DJDanny2020]

I think thats what its all about, getting the family together and being happy

[Haunting_Echoes]

Yeah, can't ask for more than that. Family is the most important thing.... usually.

[Mamfy]

It is the most important thing to me.

[Mikhael]

ohhh.... poor old bri no presents * offers her a hug *

[*låð¥*]

i dont celebrate christmas, but im gona have a girly night out with my girlfriends (of which are mostly christians), maybe on christmas eve so we can hav a funky get together :D

[*Jess*]

Awweh Bri *offers her a hug too*
I spose if ya not bothered it doesnt matter anyway. but awweh.
Christmas is a really special holiday for me. It makes me feel happy. Its really the only time our family gets together properly.

[Bellatrix]

I don`t lik to be with my family for Christmas, because it feels so odd that we are together and happy. But what I ike about Christmas is that in The Christmas night, me and my classmates get together and go to each others` house and to the teachers` and sing carols and we get from the parents or teachers a lot of goodies, even drinks. :).

[Pearson]

the best thing about christmas is getting drunk, WAAAAAAAY! i mean you start drinking about 9 o'clock its unbeliveable. n even like your gran's getting you drinks.

[~Wayne~]

Pearson got the idea! Got it in 1 lol

[Shane]

I drink boxing day and a little on Christmas Eve but not on the Actual day! :P

do you go to a boarding school or something?

[Shane]

do you go to a boarding school or something?
I was just thinking the same thing....

[Sponge'K'nob]

I like christmas for all the reasons i said before.....but to be honest, i dont want the day to come, because that means after it will be 2006 and all my new mates at 6th form will be leaving in may! its coming too fast :(
as for alcohol.....can be drank anyday

[Shane]

as for alcohol.....can be drank anydayTypical of you to be saying that! :P

[Bellatrix]

do you go to a boarding school or something?
What is a boarding school?

[random-lemons]

Hopefully, my parents will pay for some more driving lessons for me!

[*Jess*]

What is a boarding school?
A boarding school is where you actually live at the school, you sleep there and eat there and stuff. Unlike a day school where you go there during the day and go back to a house with your family/guardians after school

[Sponge'K'nob]

Typical of you to be saying that! :P
why is that typical of me?

[*Jess*]

Hes suggesting that you drink a lot,
Ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Sponge'K'nob]

hehe, i love when todlers say ommmmmmm, or you say it them and they think theyve done something really bad.
I no what hes suggesting, im just asking why lol

[random-lemons]

The new Argos christmas advert was being filmed in my town yesterday!! Thats my claim to fame lol!

[~*~emolover~*~]

i'm not really fussed about christmas this year as i kinda have every material thing i want, i think i might ask my mum to give me some money towards my driving lessons but i don't really need any money as i gte loads from work. I wana spend my christmas day with all my family as last couple of years my family havn't been together on christmas day.

[Sponge'K'nob]

I havnt thought much of christamas yet.....i never do until i see the coca cola advert, im so looking forward to it! Yayness <33

[Patriot1776]

I probably won't think about it until this coming Sunday which is when Advent starts.

[Stormydayz]

My family has already told me what I am getting. They know that I prefer to concentrate on the religious aspect of the holiday.

OH come on... i love the religious stuff too.. but i mean really what fun is it that they tell you what you are getting ne way... But i see your point..

[ooobubblezooo]

well, my family is really big into the whole christmas thing... i spend every christmas with my family... we do christmas at my house then go around to the rest of the familys houses to visit and have dinner... i get what i wanna get b/c they dont know how to buy for me b/c im SOOOO picky... but yea my family is rather religious... i have 2 preachers in my family... and i was raised in church... christmas isnt all about the presents... its more of being bale to spent time with your family and or friends and thanking God for what you have and blessing the people that arent as fortunate...

[lil devil]

[Sponge'K'nob]

[BleedBlack]

I hate to be so boring but i'm just over christmas. It use to be fun when I was little and waking up at 3am to see what santa had brought. The only good bit about it is i get to see all my family together...which is VERY rare....it's been about 5 years since i've seen one of my uncles. And we're spending christmas with him year so it's good in that sense.
People always go on about..oh it's about spending time with the ones you love...it's true..but everyone has to admit they love getting presents too..well i'm over that too! I pick out all my presents, so it's no surprise or anything.
Hmm..over christmas...
