each christian country has its own unique way of celebrating christmas. our country has the longest christmas celebration, starting on the 16th of december where we have midnight masses (actually it's held at 4:00am)for nine days, culminating in the midnight mass (this one is really at midnight)on christmas eve. we have christmas trees, christmas lights and lanterns of different shapes and sizes hung in every home, children (and even adults) singing carols from house to house, etc. there's christmas parties everywhere -- offices, schools and homes. on christmas day itself we wear our best dress to church. we cook special foods at home for guests (and even strangers) and we also prepare gifts and money to give to our godchildren. it's the best time for family reunions, with relatives from different parts of the country gathering in one place to celebrate the birth of christ together. christmas is the most awaited season for most. how about in your place, how do you celebrate christmas?
