Every year I wait for Christmas
with excitement. Schools are closed for fifteen days and I have plenty of time
with my family and my friends. I usually stay at home but
sometimes my family and I leave for vacations with friends. I also like
Christmas because I get a lot of presents and I have enough time to play. What I
like the most is that we play board games all together.
Christmas is a special ceremony.
Mothers make traditional sweets and foods and houses are lovely decorated.
Children sing Christmas carols which is a very old custom. They start singing
the carols very early in the morning on Christmas Eve going from door to door.
The
children knock the door, usually waking up the residents and sing. Most of the
people give them a small amount of money as a reward. Thus, every house
is prepared with a pile of coins ready to be given to the children. It’s such a
nice feeling to hear happy children’s voices singing carols all over the place.
Christmas is also a very nice
period of time because people come close to each other. We think of others
rather than ourselves. We should all give our love to poor people, to
homeless people who need us more than ever, especially at Christmas time.
I LOVE CHRISTMAS.
