Christmas....

Here I am, home for Christmas.

This year I0ve got a strange felling, it seems like this is not Christmas. Maybe that's because of all the work I had the past two weeks, maybe...

At least now I'm resting, taking a break from my student life, just a few days to charge back and return to work.

This year is going to be different, my cousins will only arrive on the 24th evening, hopefully before midnight. My uncle won't be joining us, we will spend his Christmas with his girlfriend's family.
I don't even care, I know it's a bad thing to say but that's the truth, we might be better without him here.
My grandparents are arriving tomorrow morning and the day will start.

I guess this is just like an ordinary holiday for everyone, family comes, they eat, open presents, the next day they lunch and that's it.

On thing I don't agree, but that's normal nowadays, is that people think Christmas is the only time to give gifts or the only time to be generous and it's not! Most just pretend everything is ok because is politically correct, it keeps appearances. I hate seeing the news when they show people saying "oh this year everything is too expensive, I've no money" but they still spend the money they don't have in gift when a simple thing would be much better, or at least a useful thing. I always ask my parents what they need, not what they want. I like giving them something useful, something they need now or that they will need soon than something that would only replace a old and still good thing.

I don't like spending money on stupid things, on thing that aren't just the ones needed. But hey that's just me...


ok let's wrap this up...
I just wanted to stop by and wish u all a very Merry Christmas!!! That your life can be full of joy, happiness and love with your friends and your family.

see u later


ps: I know something I can be a bit harsh but I need to let it out and this is the place I chose for it.
