Personal Narrative On Christmas

In the winter of the tenth grade, I was unexpectedly woken up by my mom, who was informing me that I had to volunteer for the Breakfast with Santa event hosted by CP24. In the moment, I was so angry because I had already completed my volunteer hours and now, what was supposed to be a relaxing Saturday turned into one where I would have to volunteer for hours. Upon groggily waking up, I realized that it was six in the morning, pitch black outside and snowing profusely. At this point, I’m begging my mom not to make me go, especially since I was already done my volunteer work. However, she told me that I would make a huge difference to the event as well as, the children that were going to be there. Unconvinced, I angrily climbed into the car and prepared myself

I was in the 5th grade when I heard the very first remark, ” Rudolph the red nosed reindeer”. It was 6th-grade year, that I overheard from an assemblage that my nose was “huge”. It was 7th-grade year when they began to say it to my face, when it was no longer a mere whisper, but rather something I could hear a mile away. It was 8th-grade year, that a mutual friend told me the reason why my crush didn’t ask me out to the dance, was due to my nose being too big and it just made me “ugly”.

The months of Thanksgiving and Christmas are suppose to be our favorite times of the year. The things that I have experienced made me think otherwise. These were the two years that I have lost a loved one. In 2013 it was my brother, and in 2015 it was my grandfather. No one would have ever thought that something like this would happen. The two coldest winters brought me unexpected turns that made me prepare for the worst.

My favorite season of the year occurs between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I love hearing the Christmas carols on the radio and seeing the radiant lights on the houses. The preparations done for Christmas such as finding the perfect gifts for my family members and decorating the house are things I find enjoyable. A few days before Christmas each year, my baby goats are born. Eating the delicious food and the exquisite Christmas candy is also at the top of my favorites list. Altogether, most everything that happens around Christmas time I find enjoyable.

At Christmas, gifts are the perfect human ginger to treat everyone on your list. They're cute, delicious, and you get this feeling of childhood Christmas.

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.

There is a week before Christmas, and we are at my grandmother’s house to celebrate.

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.

Christmas is a magical time of year celebrated by most people on December 25th. It’s a religious and cultural holiday that commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ. Although the actual holiday is just one day of the year, I celebrate the holiday for several weeks leading up to the actual date with decorations, gift exchanges, social events, and family gatherings. These events establish traditions and memories that I one-day hope to share with my family.

Though it was usually cold in Scrooge’s house, the people and joy spread warmth everyone, hugging them like a blanket. It was Christmas Eve, the year after the ghosts had visited Scrooge, and he had to admit this was the best Christmas by far, next to the one he spent at Mr. Fezziwig’s. During all this festiveness, Scrooge started pondering about his past Christmases, and how they had been so very dull and lifeless. He had been so obsessed with not wasting money that he didn’t even have a fire going to save the money on the coal.

Winter break had just began and I could feel the adrenaline running through my veins. I was so excited for the trips I was going to go on. It was Monday, the first day of winter break, and my dad took my sister, Alex, and I down to Oceanside. We were headed to my grandma’s house, where my Tia Krissy and my cousins, Olivia and Cici, would be heading to as well. My older cousin, Julia was on her way from Carlsbad when we arrived to my grandma’s house. After we arrived, my grandma was pleased to see us and we gave her big hugs. The house smelt like she had been cooking. My grandma loves to cook. We had beans, rice, and tortilla chips, I love my grandma’s beans and rice, you can taste the love. The food was great, so I got a second serving.

It was as if it was just a black cloud floating there. Then abruptly, my whole house shook violently. I started to run to my back door but then he appeared again but this time his blackness consumed me instantly and I had fallen asleep.
