Christmas Meme
1. What's your favorite kind of Christmas cookie?
Spritz!! If my mum makes a batch I'll literally eat the entire thing in one day given the chance. I hope I get a cookie press this year so that I can make my own.
2. What's your best childhood memory of Christmas?
I, uh, don't have one :D?
3. Real tree or fake? If a real tree, do you buy one that's already been cut or go to a farm? How do you decorate it?
Fake trees are hideous, sry2say. My family recently converted to them, and I haaaaaaaaaate them. We also don't put decorations on them anymore because my parents' cats knock them all off. I'm going to try to get a tree for my apartment this year, though, if I can somehow swing the money. STOP LAUGHING. STOP IT.
4. Do you enjoy wrapping the gifts you buy for others?
I
LOVE
WRAPPING
PRESENTS.
I AM AWESOME AT IT AND MAKE PERFECT CORNERS.
5. How many different wrapping paper designs do you have right now?
Just one. It's gold-yellow, and I forget what's on it. But it's the same wrapping paper I've used for two years, and it's almost gone so I'll have to buy a new roll soon.
6. Do you put Christmas lights up where your neighbors or passersby can see them? What kind?
Once again, it used to be multicolor lights, but recently my family has decided that white lights and icicle lights rock. I don't even know what's wrong with them. Way to be tacky, family.
7. Does your family have any weird traditions you simply must do every year?
No, no weird ones.
8. Do you or your family go to mass or church services on Christmas Eve?
Sometimes we go to church. Sometimes we don't.
9. How many Christmas music CDs do you own? Which is your favorite?
GHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA MILLIONS. I have gigs upon gigs of Christmas music. I LOVE ALL CHRISTMAS CAROLS OKAY. SO I MUST HAVE LOTS. I really like Mannheim Steamroller D:
10. Do you have Christmas lights in your bedroom that you run all night?
They're on a timer so they turn off eventually, but yeah I have blue candles.
11. How the Grinch Stole Christmas or A Charlie Brown Christmas?
>:( Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer >:(
12. Have you ever tried to make Divinity from scratch? Did it turn out?
...what's Divinity?
13. What kind of gift would you prefer: big and expensive or unique and thoughtful?
Unique and thoughtful. I'd rather a bunch of cheap presents to one big expensive one, 'cause I like opening them.
14. Do you open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
Christmas morning. What's the point of opening them on Christmas Eve? It ruins Christmas morning.
15. Do you or your family have stockings? Do you really hang them on the fireplace mantel? Is your stocking unique?
YYYYYY, one for each kid. They go on pegs above the closet in the living room, and on Christmas morning they're filled and laid on top of our presents. My mum made them all for us from scratch, so they're all personalized.
16. How many times have you seen White Christmas?
Never. I have seen A Christmas Story a thousand times (which is a thousand too many) because my family loves it.
17. Do you get your shopping done as early as possible, or do you enjoy waiting until the last day?
I always plan to do it early and then do it late. D:
18. Should fudge have nuts in it? What kind of nuts are best?
IHALL NUTS.
19. If you have pets, do you buy them Christmas gifts too?
Yeah, and I usually get a present from the animals, too.
20. Have you ever performed in a Christmas play in school or church? If so, what part did you play or sing?
hahahah no.
21. What is the strangest Christmas gift you've ever received? Do you still have it?
The first season of Saved By the Bell. I still haven't watched it because... wtf Saved by the Bell?
22. What is the best gift you've ever received?
My computer.
23. Do you usually travel to see relatives over the holidays?
God no. It's bad enough seeing the relatives in town.
24. Do you ever feel depressed by the Christmas season?
No, it's the one time of year my family pretends to be normal.
25. If you're in a relationship and have children, are your celebrations a blend of your respective traditions or have you made your own?
sry2say I love Christmas more than you, so my traditions win out.

21. Note to self: get Nick second season of Saved by the Bell.
Also, my mother and brother are visiting for Christmas. I'm not sure which days we'll spend here and which days we'll spend in Connecticut, but BE FOREWARNED.

Yeah, and I usually get a present from the animals, too.
LOL. Same here. And I haaaaaaate fake trees and white lights, haaaaaate. Of course, we have a fake tree (for safety reasons and because my mom says we can keep it up longer this way, whatever), but I've convinced them to stick with the multicolored lights for the time being.
No idea what Spritze or Divinity is...
