Newsflash. Today is Christmas.
Breaking news: Today is a great Christmas.
Sometimes, I feel like I really just want to get away from my family. But, today, I just want to be with them forever.
This Christmas has been one of the best that I can remember. I don't want it to end.
But, remember how, just earlier this week, I was talking about how I wasn't quite ready for Christmas to sneak up on me? I have a different perspective on that now. Yes, I do wish that I could have finished my finals earlier than two days before Christmas so I could prepare and get really excited. Yes, I did finish all my shopping and oh boy am I glad that it's over. But, really, I don't feel like it snuck up on me. I feel happy about it, like a surprise party that was actually a surprise.
And, while I was very joyous for everything I recieved today, that is not what makes me so happy. Quite honestly, I'm not really sure exactly what is causing me to be so enchanted. Perhaps it's the fact that I got more sleep this Christmas Eve than I have for many others past, sleeping in until 4:30 and then sneaking downstairs to check out the Santa presents and playing Pokemon with my sister. Perhaps it's the genuine joy I felt every time one of my family members opened a gift that I purchased for him/her. Perhaps it's the sheer lack of stress or worry that is usually present on this holiday.
Who cares what it is? It's good. It's 100000% good.
I just wanted to share my joy, I suppose. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas, or whatever holiday you are celebrating this holiday season.
I will see you in my next blog, in which I wil be much wittier.
