christmas or new year?

New Year`s Eve. I`ve always liked it because it is the time when I plan my upcoming Year and make decisions that might impact my next year. Also I look back on the things that I have done in the past year, try to memorize them all, try to understand if the Year was good or bad. Christmas is more for a religious people, but I don`t find myself to be so much religious person.

I don't like this kind of holidays because they make me feel very sad, in general.. besides, in the middle there is my birthday (december, 27th). I don't believe in God and I don't believe in xmas, consequently. Besides, I don't like those big lunches with all the members of family... I am not keen on celebrating new year, but I enjoy it most than Christmas.. It's more cheerful. I don't know how I'll celebrate it, this year.. I was thinking about a little cruise, but now it's too late to reserve a room on the ship.. I was thinking about the "great dinner"too, but it's too late to reserve a table, now.. I think I'll stay home together my dear friend... I don't want her to be alone the last night of the year..

I am not a Christian so as such do not celebrate Christmas. But it happens to be my birthday on the same day. So I'd give more weightage to Christmas holidays so that I can celebrate my birthday with my near and dear ones. New Year of course is equally important because everyone looks forward positively for a new beginning.
