while i love most things about Christmas such as the Charlie Brown Christmas special, the lights, the carols, there are somethings i really hate to do when its Christmas.
Gift wrapping usually falls to me and i really hate wrapping gifts and writing out christmas cards (i never know what to say).
how about you?

Hate: Christmas being advertised in early October, being made to feel that we have to spend money that we can't afford to spend and having to say yet another pack of socks that I'll never wear is just what I wanted.

Love: Children believing in Father Christmas, Children being excited and seeing their faces when they open their presents, Christmas finishing and everything being back to normal.

Sorry but Christmas has become too commercial, it's in our faces for far too long before the actual day and personally I'd be happy to just celebrate New Year. I wouldn't bother with Christmas if I didn't have kids in the family. Just my thoughts, no offence intended.

I love santa claus very much and the gifts which we get on christams.

I do not hate anything.

I love shopping for people which is weird because in regular life I hate shopping. I'm serious. It's like the bane of my existence. I actually have to gear myself up before I can go to the mall. I like Christmas trees, Christmas carols, and Christmas specials. I think I've seen every incarnation of Scrooge (even the ones that weren't so good of which there have been a few). I like going home to see everyone.

I hate the fact that even during the holiday season some people are so self-involved that they don't do anything nice for their fellow man even if they can afford it. As much as I like going home, I absolutely hate my parents bathroom because it's not wheelchair accessible. In my ideal world (which sadly doesn't exist), everyone would just come here to my house to see me. I don't have much furniture so I could fit them all in and go pee comfortably whenever I had to.

I love how Christmas changes people's attitudes. People aren't just more generous, but they are nicer. I wish we could all retain that spirit throughout the year. I love finding creative ways to get or make presents for my family. Not having money just makes me even more determined to do something special. What I hate? All the commercialism on TV! I get sick of the commercials, trying to get people to spend money they don't have, under the guise that it is showing love to family and friends.

Personally, I loved all aspects about Christmas. The freebies, the discounts, the lights, the fabulous decorations, setting the Christmas tree, going to church on the Christmas eve, parties, gifts, etc.etc.

One thing I hated the most is that it would end-up overspending our alloted family budget for the Christmas holidays.

Although Christmas brings with it a ton of stress, I myself love seeing the smile it puts on my little girls face. No matter what we are doing, if it involves the holiday she loves. The decorating, wrapping, and especially unwrapping. I love the pictures I get to take and the memories it creates.

Well, what I like about Christmas is that most people are generous. They can give beyond what is expected. And of course, people's face have somewhat changed as they can smile. There are lots of food during christmas which is one of the things I like. Food are plenty in most household starting from December 24 until the new year. I like they atmosphere because people are more positive during the christmas season. I like the fact that one day, there was a day that Jesus Christ need to born on earth, suffer and pay form my sins. Christ is the reason for Christmas. What do you think?
