akibun 0 Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Hello. I really like Christmas time, do you? I read somewhere some people don't like it - why is that? Link to post Share on other sites
Siren 0 Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Akibun, do you know Christmas is a day to remember a great European called Santa Claus? Why do you like about Christmas? Because you will get many presents and taken to romantic restaurant? Link to post Share on other sites
akibun 0 Posted November 13, 2004 Author Share Posted November 13, 2004 I like most thing about it - atmosphere, many parties, fun with friends, fun with boyfriend, etc. It's good feeling. Link to post Share on other sites

connackers 0 Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I`m jewish and don`t celebrate christmas but really enjoy christmas time back in england. Everyone`s friendlier than usual and strangers will actually smile at each other, maybe it`s a bit fake but it makes a nice change. There`s also loads of parties and everyones up for a few beers and some fun. The commercialisation side of it sucks a bit but fortunately i get to avoid all that, apart from all the adverts, christmas songs etc. I guess i also get to avoid the huge family get together/ arguments which a lot of people seem not to like about it. Missed the lack of atmosphere here around christmas time last year. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I don't like Christmas because it attracts terrorists who want to spoil my enjoyment of Rudolf and Frosty. Link to post Share on other sites

It is lovely, isn't it. Akibun, do you know why we have parties and go out to buy presents for each other and to celebrate for Santa? Link to post Share on other sites

indosnm 0 Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I love christmas! ( wouldn't you if it was in SUMMER ) I always get together with my (mothers) HUGE family (that all get on very well and some cousins are my best mates) and enjoy the day. Not so enjoyable on the other side of the family due to "tensions"! My day usually starts with a surf followed by a champas brekkie and the rest of the days festivities. I still get heaps of pressies, which is nice at my age. I do however get sick of the lead up and chrissy carols BGM etc etc in shops. Link to post Share on other sites

brett_jackson 0 Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 My (26yr old) partner still sneaks up to the tree to feel her prezzies to try and guess what they are. Cracks me up every time. I don't know how she'll go this year celebrating in Japan - the place we're staying at is a shoebox for lack of a better word ... so no big christmas pine.

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I love Xmas!!! But, its not nearly as nice as celebrating it with a GF eh? Oh well, Lets Powder!!! Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I could do without the whole present thing. But I do love getting together with my family although this will be my second Christmas with just my friends. And I would much rather celebrate Santa, Frosty or Blitzen than the birth of some child 2000 years ago. Link to post Share on other sites

Siren 0 Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Just joking of course. I am sure he wasn't - he was just trying to be a gentleman, someone who came to the aid of a innocent defenceless girl like you. Link to post Share on other sites

Siren 0 Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 By the way, scooby (I am sure you have an interesting idea behind that name too ) is that your apartment? I like it - very minimalist and pink is an ingenious touch! Link to post Share on other sites
