Christmas. It’s the time of the year when people break out the Christmas lights and risk their lives hanging them on the roof. It’s the time when the radio states to play Christmas music right after Thanksgiving. I have a little secret. You should probably sit down because I’m about to tell you something that you’re most likely not going to like, I’m not a big fan of Christmas. I know. WHAT?! It’s insane. It was cool when I was growing up, but now, it’s not fun. It's annoying.

Christmas movies are very similar. (Especially the lovey dovey ones)

Two people meet, the fall in love, DRAMA, man tries to make things right, they get back together, the end. Is anyone else not loving this? Just me? Okay. I will admit, the actors are doing a very good job, but it’s been done.

Christmas music.

Different artists, different tune…same song redone over and over.

Christmas lights.

Have fun trying to get them down without falling.

Shopping.

My bank account isn’t happy with me.

Decorating

Bringing up those boxes, then bringing them back down, only to have them bring them back up in a couple of weeks.

Baking/Cooking

The dishes…all of the dishes.

Socializing

Let me make short and sweet for you. College is great, I love being home, my grades are fine, and no I don’t have a boyfriend.

Snow

Evil...

Stores starting early

What happened to Thanksgiving?

Mall "Santa"

Please tell me what the hell that smell is?

It’s not that I don’t like hanging out with my family or anything like that, but I just fell out of love with Christmas. When I was growing up, it was so fun. Putting up the tree, baking with my family, getting presents (because that’s all that young kids loved), shopping, seeing “Santa” at the mall, going around the neighborhood and seeing the lights, etc. But now, I just don’t love it the way I use to. Now I just find it annoying and tacky. Everything from Christmas music and movies to hanging up decorations, I just find it all tacky. Even having people I don’t like come over and I am forced to socialize. I just don’t understand why people love this holiday.
