Over the winter break I will be shopping for christmas presents and spending time with my family. I will also be looking forward to relaxing and being able to spend time with my family. I believe that the break will help me relax and feel rejuventaed for coming back to school. I am going to get my mind of school though to have a productive christmas and new years break.

I am going to Antarctica to meet killer whales and the penguins. I am going over there to research the penguins and there habitat with my father who is scientist. I am then going back home to pack and go to New York to see the lights on the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center. I am also going to visit my brother in New Jersey who just had a baby who is 2 months old. She is so cute.

For new years I am going to be home just having fun with the family and lighting up fireworks.For the rest of the break I am just going to go home and do nothing at all and just watch movies and spend time with my friends. It is going to be so fun over the Christmas and New Years break. Over the Christmas break i will miss my friends, but I am going to be having so much fun that i wont even think about it that much. Christmas break will help me organize everything before i go back to school. I am wishing i will get the presents that i want from my mom and dad and brother and sister. I am hoping for and IPhone.

Christmas only comes once a year. Many people do not celebrate Christmas, but I am one of some that do. I love Christmas, it is my favorite holiday. Christmas is a special time of year because of the fact that it has to do with being together. I love spending time with my family and having that quality time where everyone is together, and unfortunately it comes once a year. I love it because i love the family, food and tradition. Christmas is something very special to me because of the fact that it is the only time when i get to see my whole family at once, family that live in other states or that just don't come around as often as they should. We all get together to celebrate the special holiday of Christmas.

The first thing we love to do, is wake up in the morning and turn on some Christmas music, open the windows to get that chilly air feeling of Christmas and snuggle into warm blankets. Then we like to make breakfast with each other. The breakfast includes bacon, eggs, and Cinnamon buns. Then we wait around for all of our family to get to our house. We all get excited due to the fact that there are plenty and plenty of gifts under the real tree decorated blue, white and silver. Then we head over to our stockings to realize we have more than we thought we were going to have each year. Then our family arrives and the party begins.

Once everyone gets settled in and under warm blankets to relieve the chilly, crisp air coming through the fully opened windows. Then we start to unravel and open the pretty wrapped Christmas wrapping paper and the multicolored bows decorated in the right corner of the present. Everyone is happy after the fact of getting everything they had wished for. Then after spending time with everyone, we all decide to open the presents from their boxes and start to play, use or put into a special spot in the house. Everyone is thrilled that they got exactly what they had wished for, even down to the exact color. After all of this, everyone is hungry and we decide that we want our Italian food, instead of the regular American tradition of ham, we bake or cook Italian entrees and yummy deserts. This is why Christmas is my ultimate favorite holiday.
