This year, just like last year didn't feel like Christmas. It for sure felt like it came earlier this year, but whether it was the heat or that I've just lost my Christmas spirit, it did not feel like a holiday.

I was determined to make this year feel like a holiday; started listening to Christmas music that night of Thanksgiving, decorated a tree at school, lights and bows everywhere in my dorm room, made the annual Christmas cookies, exchanged gifts, decorated the tree at home, garland outside, the normal stuff but again this year wasn't a holiday.

I didn't expect a White Christmas cause it's the South that's been a very long time since that has happened but it was cooler, actually wore long sleeves this year.

I wish I could be like:

But maybe for a day it felt like a holly jolly time, maybe I've grown into a bit of a Grinch. My Christmas Spirit has been down for the last few years and it makes me question what it used to be like, to be more than ecstatic about the holiday season, I hope some year from now it comes back, that Christmas will one day be just like when I was a kid.

There's always next year!
