Raining, absolutely raining. It's rather annoying some day morning ,when you get up and ready to do what u'v planned last night and then, look out of the window, u disappointed find that it has drizzling outside. All is wet and gloomy So i have to call off all the plans, watching TV at home, surfing the net instead. That's terrible to me

in such cases i really enjoy myself and do what i love to do. i love playing with my children and they love it too. during holidays, i get maximum time to be with my family and friends. and the most interesting thing is that i sleep a lot. in my normal daily routine i don't sleep much...hardly 4 hours a day. but during holidays i watch movies with my family till late at night then i sleep and get up late and i enjoy a lot.

I think that the saddest thing about the holidays is that there are alot of people out there that are not looking forward to them as they have alot of financial worries as well as there are alot of children as well as adults that will not be having a nice Christmas this year and do not have nothing to look forward to in the new year.

I think the saddest thing about the holidays applies to people who are alone and have nobody who cares about them.

The saddest thing about the holiday season is loved ones that have passed away. I recently lost my mother and this will be the first Xmas without her. This year was also the first Thanksgiving without her. To me, that is the saddest thing about the holidays...celebrating without my mom.

The saddest thing for me about the holidays is that my family is utterly incomplete. My mom is overseas and its killing me. I just want a Christmas where my family is complete for the first time after 10 years. Also, the thought that during the holidays, many filipino families are still under the crisis, i hope everybody is happy in the holidays...that's all

As a student, the hardest part with regards with the holidays is the thought that you won't see some of your friends until after the holiday break.

I think the saddest thing about holidays as christmas season is when the person you expected to be there with you celebrating the yuletide season is totally absent or have not given even a small quality time to be with you. In general, for the community welfare, the saddest holiday was when there are tragedies and calamities in your country or place, when there are many people who cannot afford to celebrate a happy holidays because of depressions and financial crisis. any of these, may contribute to the saddest thing about holidays.
