Celebrations (week 6)
Student blogging competion Tagged stubc08 November 11th, 2008 My all time favorite holiday is……Christmas.
I don’t know about you, but Christmas the most exciting time of the year because you get to spend time with your family. Whenever Christmas comes around, so does the family. My family gets our Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving (another special holiday) for certain reasons.
1) We want the Christmas feeling to last as long as we can. 2) We have a special guy we buy our tree from, and don’t want the good trees taken. 3) So we can get our decorating done early. When you decorate your home, you usually do it with family. Sometimes decorating will take a whole day to accomplish. Then during the season you go shopping for presents to give to your sisters, brothers, mom, dad, aunt, uncle, cousins, friends, etc. This is another way family comes together. The big title during Christmas is presents, and you buy them for people you know. And on Christmas Day morning, everyone gathers to open them. The biggest Christmas title = Family.
One celebration I would like to visit would be the snow festival in Sapporo in Japan. This paritcular celebration interested me for one main reason (obvious reason) – for the snow. I have never seen snow before besides in movies and pictures. On the other hand I’ve seen fluries of snow but nothing big. They say that for seven days in February, snow statues and makes the feeling of winter all the estatic with beauty.
Thank-you for reading!!!
