SAME! My Christmas list was soo long. I was going to give like everyone I knew in school something. Even if they weren't really friends with me. >_> But it's shorten now. I'm not rich enough to get many presents! T__T
I only got two presents! And both of them were pretty expensive. T__T One was my mom's and my youngest brother! I still have friends, other brother, and the rest of my family! O__O That's a lot to go!

Hee hee. I love Christmas! There's so much candy XD!! No seriously, everyone in my school starts swapping candy, and then gets REALLY hyper about a week before christmas.
My family usually has a ton of decorations up by now, but this year we havent. We don't even have a TREE. :sweatdrop: Plus, I have just about $0 for presents this year... Is anyone else this broke?
lika-chi:
Candy?? lolz. That's crazy! My friends get crazy over candy when it's not even Christmas! :lol: Like me! We don't put up decorations. -_- But I want to. We have a fake tree.. somewhere in the basement. I haven't seen that tree in about 2 to 3 years. We haven't really celebrated Christmas in a long time. T__T
Miss Jenni-Maie:
I believe my Christmas schedual is this:
7am: Wake up and open stocking presents (even though we all know about the real Santa Clause). And until breakfast, play with my brand new socks (my stocking is always filled with toiletries, hehe)
9am: Go to my Auntie Diane's for breakfast. Yum yums.
12PM: Go back to house to open all the other ...err...one present. (Meh, I don't expect much).
After that, we play with our brand new socks and watch our new DVD. La-di-da.
7PM: Din-din with Grandma-ma. I get to listen to her complain about how much we all need counseling and I have to be "a good girl and start listening to my mother". Jeez. Happy Holidays.
Although the years before that were alot different. On my dads side of the family there used to be a huge Christmas party at my Great-Uncle John's and Great-Aunt Fernanda's house and everyone on that side of the family would come for dinner and games and such (even people would fly out from Ontario!). It was nuts, and a freaking riot! (Actually, I was only amused by my drunken cousin, Nancy who would run up to everyone and scream "You're so cute!" and bear hug them, hahaha! Although, I was a pretty messed up 6 year old after that, haha.).
But there was a huge fight among the family one year (something about a house in the Azores in a will and it was supposed to be shared among the family. But everyone was selfish and had different plans for it) and it never happens anymore. What a shame.
But we have more of a tradition on Christmas Eve. Goes something like:
KFC for dinner
Go to Christmas Eve mass at the church.
We used to open one present from under the tree before our presents went from cheap plastic to expensive gadgets. So that was cut out of the tradition, haha.
Then we watch two movies: Muppets Christmas Carol, and the Original Christmas Carol. I usually go to bed right after the Muppets, haha. Or I watch some random Christmas special on TV in my room.
Ahh Christmas. Crazy.

Christmas...I can take it or leave it. Good memories as a child, not so pleasant ones as an adult. No lights or decorations at my house :)
