i hate christmas, no idea why but i always have. i always get HELLA depressed around xmas, lol. i'm weird like that
At least you have the boxing day test to look forward to heartagram69 stupid NZ don't even get a boxing day test anymore, I shall have to have my beers while backing Aussie.
OK, time to start copying and pasting and quoting people. Yeah, kind of forgot about that. But those photos are from a LONG time ago. Me have changed a bit. One of them just aired on TV last night on the Hallmark channel. It in fact was a Christmas movie - "Santa Jr.", check local listings for time and channel. Parents picked the name. Otherwise I would have named her Anonymous. *shudders* Don't even want to go there. Yes, you are! ROFLLOL! :lol: :lol: Phew! And where did I get the nickname Shaney?
In some countries, umm Canada, England, Australia?, Ireland, on December 26th, you get to exchange what you got, do more shopping ect. There are usually tons of sales, it's great! I always go Boxing Day shopping! :lol:
Boxing day is the bestest! Most of the shops are open and the sales start, I would never exchange any gifts though! Ususally there is a boxing day test in cricket but for some reason my stupid country don't do that anymore. It is kind of a tradition to have a few quiet drinks and a BBQ (try and work your way through some of the leftovers) and watch the cricket, unless you are super lucky like heartagram and get to go to the test!
Same here. It's always chaos but it's worth it in the end :lol:. So who here has already started listening to Christmas carols? I have, but they're all in Greek. The version of "Last Christmas" is pretty damn good.
Here 26th everything is still closed, those sales start on 27th. But we have other traditions for 26th. And since here 24th is the most important day, Christmas Eve. I mean we eat Christmas dinner then and Santa comes 25th adn 26th are just sleeping and perhaps visiting someone.
boxing day is hella fun, the sales are ridiculous, and i alwyas get heaps of stuff with my xmas money lol. unless i'm at the cricket of course, which is normally always, so i go in the next few days
i never understood boxing day. 'buy all your presents for christmas, then the next day everything is 50% off!!!' can someone explain to me why we buy stuff full price before hand? :lol: oh, one year i was in kauai for christmas and if you think hearing carols over and over again is annoying try island themed carols! everything was set to steel drum music, and every 15 minutes they played the hawaiian 12 days of christmas. it was funny the first two times or so but after that you wanted to toss the radio over the balcony :lol:
HANNUKAH pwns! *runs*. We have the Hannukah Fairy and Hannukah Bush, two of the best inventions ever. lol I love the holidays so much!
