I'd like to take a moment to wish all who celebrate it a Merry Christmas. For those who celebrate Hanukkah, sorry I'm late, but Happy Hanukkah. If Christmas and Hanukkah aren't your thing, then I wish you Happy Holidays. I hope you spend a lot of time with family and friends this holiday season and equally enjoy the responses from those to whom you give presents as the presents you receive yourself.

Also, I hope you all enjoy the Pokémon Christmas theme that we have up.

This is what I posted on PC and thought it needed to be said here too. This was Christmas 2010.

Quote:
There was nothing merry about it for me this year u_u.

Last night, I couldn't sleep because I was so excited for Christmas Day. When I got up, I was happy and went downstairs.

Our puppy likes to trample all over everything and jump around like a goof. Dad likes to yell at me for getting angry at the puppy. They basically spoiled the whole experience with all the chaos they caused.

On top of that, everyone really enjoyed their presents...except me. Nobody knew what I wanted this year. I was going to make a Christmas list this year, but I learned from experience that there's little hope I'll get much out of it. I don't care how many presents I get as long as I enjoy them...and frankly, I didn't get much enjoyment out of them.

The sad thing is that I put a lot of thought and effort into what to get my family for Christmas. I got dad a glass butterfly with writing that says "believe in miracles." He absolutely loved the cup with a picture of B A Baracus on it saying "I don't fly, fool!" I got my sister a Wii game and she fell in love with it, along with a Sterling Silver butterfly necklace with peridots and amethysts in the wings. I got my mom a glass teddy bear, holding a rose with the word "MOM" next to it, along with several bars of exotic homemade soap that don't exist anywhere else.

But no one really thought about what I wanted this year. Don't get me wrong, I like the thought behind the presents, but most of them will be used or gone in a matter of days or weeks. There's not really much I can keep and remember.

We didn't even get that White Christmas that I prayed for over a month to happen.

The magic of Christmas is gone now, because of today. I feel crushed...yet guilty that I didn't do enough to make Christmas better. I don't think I'm looking forward to the new year either, thanks to what happened a couple months ago on Halloween.

Christmas doesn't mean much to me anymore. That said, I can't take away from the enjoyment of others and I'm glad that most people here enjoyed Christmas. My family enjoyed it too...but inside I felt left out and isolated from everyone else. If I tell my family that, there definitely won't be a Christmas next year.

Well, I hope you guys on PC enjoyed Christmas. At least it meant something to you, right?

Just an advice; try to cheer up a bit. You know that I am not Christian and we don't celebrate Christmas. However, whenever Christmas comes I just feel happy for everyone and I find that everything has changed. I don't get any presents of course, but who cares? It is just the feeling of love that comes in Christmas that makes Christmas a special day, even for non-Christians. I think you should look at things from a different point of view.

It's not the presents that I'm upset about. There is no love or real happiness in my family. Everyone's grumpy and miserable. Even on Christmas Day. We snap at each other for stupid things.

I don't feel any appreciation from anyone in my family . So I'm not gonna give them anything next year .

Happy holidays everyone and a happy new year!

I not sure why but Christmas was a letdown this year. I think it's because of the personal porblem happen to my dad and end up not seeing my relatives. Not to metion I feel the tension between my family and my dad is grumpy.

Still I try not let other people damped my spirits and controling my emotions. I plan to see Tron: Legacy later on today and during the week I will see my friend that I haven't see for awhile.
