What do you like best about the holidays?

[CottonBolus]

I like that we have 3 week break from school and I also like playing in the snow.





I'm also planning on going to the theatres soon. The Matrix^ and no, I don't throw my cat into a pile of snow like that.

Poor pussy.

When i was at school, i loved the holidays, and being able to run around the city all day with my friends.

Times have certainly changed. When I went to school, our Christmas holidays began at school closing on December 24th (or the 23rd if Christmas was on Sunday) and began again on January 2nd (or the 3rd if New Years was on Saturday).

I like the extra sleep, enjoy my own private bathroom/bathtub at parents' home, and the large kitchen to cook when I have no room to here in my small flat.

What do I like best about the holidays, When it all over...

[Swellegant]

That they end. That is all.

I'm not a Scrooge or a Grinch or anything, but I haven't enjoyed the holidays in years and years. I'm just tired of it. Year after year, always the same thing, starting a little bit earlier every year. The same Thanksgiving with the same people eating the same food; the same gawdawful Christmas songs on the radio, the same lights on the neighbors' houses, the same bright red and gold and green in the stores, the same fucking bells all over the place; the same tree, the same dinner and the same relatives as last month's holiday, then the same birthday, the same New Year's Resolutions... it's just so damnably same.

I dream of a Jewish Christmas: Chinese food and a movie.

[CupidBoy]

Everything, my favorite time of year.

[reone]

The cheerful spirit from those that have it. Seeing the Christmas lights downtown at night just puts you in a mood.

[MikeyLove]

Mid-Night Mass, the Music, the Solemn feelings (actually a different feeling at Easter, before and after), the food, being with family and friends, etc.

[rareboy]

I think that last year, I hit the Christmas wall.

This year, Christmas season seems like an admonishment.

It is a season of forced 'joy' after a year so dismal that I am praying the Mayans were right and it all ends on the 21st.

At this point, I am purely going through the motions to do the barest minimum possible. I want the same Christmas as Swellegant.

To meet and eat. And eat the ones you meet.

Are you gonna cook brussel sprout?

[JP.]

It's my fav time to sleep/hibernate..I love sleeping 14 hours this winter
eat twice a day
and getting skinny but fit.

[derelictdarrel]

The paycheck. I get double time in a half the entire day I work a holiday.

[TheLyingGame]

Oh, and presents.

[refujiunderground]

the free items especially the money (if i get any this year).

[RonR18]

Fruitcake! Although a lot of people don't like it, it doesn't seem like Christmas to me without it.

[Laufey]

1. Gifts.
2. Fireworks.
3. Food / sweets.
4. Spending time with family.
5. Seeing all the nice Christmas lights outside when the day is so short.

99. Spending time with other relatives.

Taking a break from college. Hanging out and having fun with friends, also chilling and doing the things that I like such as watching Tv, playing games etc.
