Christmas : My Birth Story

Soccer is not only a sport for me, but also my childhood. I remember that when I was a little boy, I followed my older brothers and their friends to play soccer every day. We did not have the soccer fields. We played soccer on the quite streets or on the fields, not soccer fields, wherever we had spaces to run and control the ball. Because of I came a person like soccer. I like to play and watch others play it. Soccer is running is my blood. I am really interested in the soccer.

It was Christmas eve, the smell was amazing! My mom’s Christmas cookie yankee candle was burning and the smell was still lingering from where me and my mom baked cookies and brownies to eat on christmas morning. I was in my room where I couldn’t go to sleep, My TV was still running hallmark christmas movies and I heard yelling from my parents bedroom but I was too comfortable to get up so I brushed it off and I finally told myself to get some sleep for the long and exciting morning that was just a couple hours ahead of me.The next morning was christmas morning I was wearing my favorite pajamas, a long-sleeve black shirt with two glittery hearts in the middle and my matching long black pants with red, pink,and white polka dots but

My favorite holiday is Halloween! I like it because I get to go get my costume and I also like it because the Halloween store had millions of costumes covering every square inch of the store. I also love to go through the store trying masks on and taking funny pictures in them. While we're are in the to the Halloween store my brother and I are talking to each other and seeing what we're gonna wear while we're trick or treating, further on in the night we will go to a party and we will go get candy. My favorite part of Halloween if filling my stomach with all the food, goodies, and candy filling up my stomach. also this year we were planning to trick or treating at the gncc or more known as the

My favorite holiday is Hanukkah. On Hanukkah I get to get together with friends and family to celebrate. The food eaten is also amazing. Some of the traditional foods that we eat on Hanukkah are latkes, jelly donuts, and matzah ball soup. When everyone gathers together to celebrate the holiday they are all in a cheerful mood. Everyone has fun lighting the menorah, playing dreidel, and spending time with one another.

1) My favorite holiday is right around the corner - Christmas. I know it's cliche but Christmas is more than just a holiday it's like an entire season and I get swept up in it.

The night of the first spirit was near to appear. Scrooge was stern but brave and patient. He waited,waited and waited, then a flash of light streaked across the colossal bedroom. There in his presence was a shining light of the beautiful spirit. Scrooge asked who was this mysterious spirit. The spirit spoke “I am the ghost of Christmas past “ of whose past spirit, scrooge said. “Your past “ the spirit once said. The spirit wandered around with scrooge of his Christmas past. At an instance they were in the hands of his old church. Scrooge said to the spirit “i remember this place” Scrooge felt something in his heart that he has not felt before in a long time, happiness. They traveled to another place that Scrooge has in his brain that stores

“Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom,” Marcel Proust said. This quote suggests how being grateful for the people that you feel close to, will make you feel happier. A Christmas Memory by Truman Capote takes place during the Great Depression in a small Southern town. A seven year old boy named Buddy, and his friend are hit by the Great Depression. They do not have very many possessions, only basic necessities. The holidays are right around the corner so Buddy and his friend decide to make fruit cakes for all of their friends, even though they do not have much. They end up not having much money to get each other something for Christmas. In the end, they both decide that having each other is enough, and that they’re both very grateful for one other. One lesson that is taught in the story, is that often, people tend to only be grateful for materialistic things. However, in this story they’re grateful for one another. Similarly, in the short story The Gift of the Magi by O. Henry expresses the same theme of gratefulness through the development of the character traits and character conflicts. Both stories show that being grateful for the people that you feel close to, will make you feel happier.

Every year, since when I was a little girl I remember that around Christmas time my family and I would celebrate a Cooney Christmas. The Cooney Christmas is celebrating Christmas with my dad's side of the family. We would always go to my grandpa Cooney’s house to have supper and exchange gifts together. It was decided between the family that once you turned 18 years old you weren’t able to receive gifts anymore. Of course this rule excluded my grandpa and Betty from receiving gifts. Recently, a couple years back it became too hard for grandpa and Betty to prepare the all of the food and prepare for the whole family. Therefore, instead we rotate between my dad and his two sisters houses each year hosting the party. The party has still been the

Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. How many times have we heard this phrase and yet a lot of people don’t know the actual meaning to it. For me the meaning of Christmas is the value of family time and the all the delicious food that this lovely season makes us cook. In this lovely season, we cook the famous tamales. This is by far my favorite dish, but it is also the most difficult dish to make. There are three portions to make tamales get all the ingredients needed to cook, organize the items and the best part fold everything.

Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year. I love seeing the shinny Christmas lights that decorates my street and the sound of fresh fallen snow on the ground. Christmas reminds me of family, the laughter and loved we shared, and the gifts we gave to each other. My house on Christmas became the center of my joy.

Feelings of joy when giving gifts to loved ones; sweet, rich scents of delicious warm Swiss Miss hot chocolate; harmonious tunes of beautiful snowflakes, and bright red carriages pulled by reindeer. And of course, the glimmering white snow that brings an ecstatic feeling of happiness every year on first snowfall, as if the world has never seen it before. There truly is nothing not to love about Christmas. That is, of course, until that beautiful white snow I have always loved suddenly decides it would rather have my car upside down on an icy dirt road.

I think Christmas has always been one of my favorite holidays. Maybe because of the special atmosphere that you can feel everywhere, in shops, restaurants , pubs and even streets, where you can hear the magical carols, or maybe it's because of its religious background, but what I can tell you for sure is that I can't think of anything more exciting than the image of the entire family preparing the Christmas Tree or fixing the Christmas dishes.

I looked out the living room window and saw my parents hanging up our Christmas lights in the soft, falling snow. The aroma of gingerbread cookies floated in the air. I was wrapped up in a fuzzy, red blanket lounging on our black, leather couch, watching the Christmas special on tv.

It was the two days before Christmas. Santa was getting every excited for his trip and he was also getting very tired.

Have you ever spent hours and hours making and decorating cookies only two days before Christmas? I have because every year on Christmas Eve my mom’s whole side of the family comes to our house for a party. I get to see some cousins that I barely ever get see. We spend the whole day from sunrise to sunset together. Seeing them is amazing because sometimes you don’t realize how much you miss someone until you finally see them again.
