christmas.



In a way I'm spending this Christmas alone. 
I don't have that special someone to spend it with, I'm not even spending it with my parents.
I'm not sad about it, but it could be nice.

Truthfully I'm not alone at Christmas though. 
I get to spend it with two of my most excellent friends.
One who has been there for me, since our fights in the playground. The other who I've known for less than a year. 
I also get to spend it with both of my sisters, my fantastic brother in law and my four gorgeous nieces. 

I think I expect a lot from this holiday, but I know that as long as I've got all of them I wont be disappointed. After all, I think regardless of religious reasons for the holiday, christmas is really just a time to make sure that you're spending it with people you love.

♥ brown paper packages, tied up with string. i think wrapping gifts is the funnest part, even better than buying them and opening them!

i'm alone for christmas, but i am not too worried about it. you shouldn't need a special day of the year set aside to share with your loved ones :) the food is usually goooood though. i think one thing i will miss is still feeling WAY too full and WAY too hot on boxing day, and being able to do nothing other than lie on the lounge and stare at the cricket on tv.

it doesn't feel like christmas for me at all. it's too cold!!
