ChRiStMaS TiMe


Ever since i can remember Christmas has been one of the most exciting days of the year (besides my birthday of course), and i assumed this year would be no different. Its started out like it always does, my youngest sister wakes everyone up early so she can go down and check out the loot Santa left her. My dad goes down first to grab the video camera to document our reactions to look back on in years to come. When the OK is giving everyone rushes down into the room piled high with wrapped packages of all shapes and sizes. My youngest sister freaked when she saw the life size miniature house sitting by her stocking (its probably the closest she'll ever come to getting a real pony for Christmas). As my two sister tear through their gifts the hungry bears i take my time opening each of my gifts and appreciating each of them. This year i made out pretty well by getting an i-touch and a laptop and some other little trinkets. Since i got a lot of smaller expensive things this year my pile looked smaller then my sisters so my parents decided to wrap up a printer and put it with my gift. The look of confusion on my face after opening it was met w my dad saying "its a present for everyone!". Soon everything was opened and i was glad with everything i got but something was still off. I didn't feel the usually Christmas excitement i remember for years past. It was just another dad where i got a lot of nice stuff. Its almost as if I'm o old for Christmas though i really don't believe there is such a thing. I don't know what my problem was this year but hopefully ill have more of a Christmas spirit next year.
