Christmas Traditions

Since it is the last week before Christmas break I decided to write about CHRISTMAS! All around the world countries celebrate Christmas differently. For example Austria(like what other country would I mention!). Austrians have Kristkind(Christ Child) instead of Santa. I also have Kristkind but not only Kristkind I also get presents from Santa Lucia(LOO-CHEE-a.) Santa Lucia is from Italy. She doesn't come to my house but we go to a friend of my grandpa’s House.

Okay, so that is who I get presents from Christmas time. Now lets talk about other countries...Well in China only some people are Christian so they do what we do put up a Christmas tree but in Chinese Santa Claus is ‘Shen dan lao ren’. In Mexico Christmas is Celebrated from Dec.12-Jan.6(Two days before my B-day!)  Swiss like to wear crowns on their heads and everyone has Advent calendars. In the UK(or great britain) they put up a Christmas tree(or even 2!) and instead of Santa Claus they have Father Christmas. Oh and I almost forgot Jewish families celebrate Chanukkah(Hanukkah.)

Now there are some different ways to celebrate Christmas.

What do you do for Christmas?

Do you do anything special for Christmas time if yes, What?

Do you know of any other traditions if yes which ones?

And since the first and second question are the similar…

Why do you think Christmas is so special?

Christmas Specials

During Christmas time there are a lot of Christmas specials on TV.  Some of them are classics like How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Garfield, Charlie Brown, Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman and Elf. There are a lot of other movies that I can not remember off the top of my head. Those movies are more commonly seen/watched around Christmas.

This will be off topic but 79% of the kids are focused on the gifts not the family time and movies. They all just stare at the gifts shake them listen to them if they’re allowed.  Some kids are so bad that they sleep beside the tree until Christmas and wake up Christmas morning. Some kids don't even get presents but still people don't care.

Now back to the topic, If I were to make a Christmas special it would be about a doughnut named Arnold Candy cane who has to rescue Bob Bell his best bro while the towns people try to bombard him with Christmas decorations.

What is your favorite Christmas special and why?

If you could make a Christmas special what would it be about and who would be the main character be?

Why do you think Christmas specials are so popular?

Hobby

My favourite hobby is dance. Dance is a beautiful art. I think I will dance for the rest of my life.

Mostly because I think I’m good at it, and because when I dance I start to smile. I dance four times a week. On Mondays I dance ballet and jazz. Later in the day on Thursday I dance ballet choreo, ballet tech, and lyrical. On Fridays I dance musical theater. And on Saturdays I dance jazz and acro. My favourite type of dance is jazz, because I think I have a lot of personality. I’m pretty sure I get all of my personality from my sister. 

Dance is the only hobby I do, because I quit soccer and I quit gymnastics. It was hard to quit gymnastics. But quitting soccer was like a piece of cake. I don’t care though now because I think that’s how I got better at dance. My goal with dancing is to always get better and better. Because if I work even harder and harder every time. Usually in dance class we have one big prize and a ton of small prizes.This year she is trying to give out a rainbow sock monkey. Another one of my goals is to do a side aerial and a rollover pretzel. If I succeed them I will move on to another goal.
