I'm not sure if I have that long a holiday. As far as I know, I'll be going back to work on the 26th and 27th and possibly 29 and 30 as well. I'll see if I can not go but I would want to be paid! The more money, the better! Anyway, I have a lot of dinner and lunch plans with my friends and family. A lot of relatives will be returning home from Canada so I have to spend some time with them.

I do not have a final plan yet, all I know is that I want is I can hardly wait for it to start already since I am really tired with all the preparations, parties and work at the same time. I would probably spend the first few days at home sleeping. hehe but I don't think I would last staying at home for long, I am a person who likes to be doing something all the time so I am pretty sure I would be out the door with my family, my friends and relatives soon enough.

No long holiday for me... since the end of a current project will be on the 23rd or even 24th... so i would have to go to the site just to check on those who are working and buy the supplies needed... just hope they will finish before christmas... because i certainly do not want to go back to work after Christmas day...

I'm gonna spend it with my family...since I've been so busy at work and I really don't spend that much time with them anymore. So I'm definitely spending it with them. Merry Christmas to you roselynn!

I'll stay with my family and we'd go out to malls and other places to spend quality time. We've never had enough time to be together because of my work and my sister's schooling but now that we are both free (yep, I took a long break from my office... ), we'll take the chance to enjoy the holidays. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Well, I'm going to sit at home and not spend any money and clean house and read and go on comp. That is what I'm doing. As I have no money and I'm only getting paid for the holidays and not for the whole week. So will have no money. But will relaxe so have a wonderful Holiday and stay safe. Your friend onlydia

Since I will just be at home after a month of going to school daily, I will probably spend the whole time with my family at home and of course myLot! I will have more time in myLot this time and I already told myself that I will do my best here during the vacation. I have some Christmas grocery shopping to do on Monday after school. Yes, I still have school until Tuesday afternoon (23 December). I am also planning to do General Cleaning at home, probably in the morning of 24th if I still have time. I also have two get-together parties to attend to, one with my High School friends and the other one with my College friends. I am excited this holiday season. Merry Christmas roselynm1023!
