The Christmas for my is to be in família, to spend it to you well with the friends, to receive and to give gifts since also it is an expense of money because you spend for food quando this the whole família and they sell màs face, also for the expense of rule you, but the people feel to close, because the navidad is to pass it all together
As every year, on the 24th eve all my family joined to celebrate Xmas eve. It was grate, and I had a really good time.
First I'm going to talk about my Christmas as a child, looking back on, I can remember that it used to be different from now, my family used to make us sing Xmas carols, or just to recite poems, and we were all pleased for doing it. And obviously we used to hit the famous log, called "Tió", this was what I really looked forward to, it was gorgeous.
Although we all liked doing it, now we no longer do. Children have grown, and the excitement and the illusion have been lost, of course.
Nowadays we usually play the game called “amigo invisible”; it consists in taking a paper with a name, and buying a gift to this person, so everyone buy a present to each other, it is funny too.
But next year, we'll come back to the past tradition, because a new child is coming to our family. I'm really excited about it; I'm going to have a niece.
In my opinion, Xmas is a very good time to join family, to spend time together, to talk... and the most important for me is seeing people who you don't see usually.
Christmas for me is a good time of year, because one day in the year we eat with all the family, and if you have family in other places you can have lunch or dinner with them.
I look back on when I was younger, after lunch we played with board games. Now, we don’t.
One think that I like of Christmas holidays is that I can sleep more, in addition I’m keen on the presents of Christmas, and go out with my friends to the disco, and you can see decorated streets.
When I was younger I used to do “tió” but now my family usually does the invisible friend, I like it so much!
I’m pleased with my Christmas, but there are a lot of children who don’t have presents…
Finally, when the holidays finishes I’m looking forward to the next holidays.
