Christmas Time

Wow, I can't believe that in about four more days its gonna be Christmas. I suppose you could say that I'm excited about it being Christmas and all, but for some reason it doesn't seem like the same excitement I had when I was younger.

For example, I watch my kid bro and he's really really excited about Christmas, he's even counting down the days until Christmas day. I think all children are like that, really excited about Christmas. I guess as children they're really excited about getting presents and stuff. For some strange reason I feel a tad bit apathetic about Christmas day. Since in the past years I've been sleeping in on Christmas day and I remember when I was young I would wake up at 7am and wait impatiently for my parents to wake up. Now I sleep in and everyone impatiently waits for me to wake up, which I will most likely do this Christmas. I find it odd how that as I grew older I started to view Christmas as just a day and not "Christmas Day."

Don't get me wrong I'm excited about it being the Christmas season. Although it seems that I'm excited about for more than just the presents. I guess its what I like about the Christmas season that gets me excited. Such as getting to hang out with friends and family, the cold weather, and not having to worrry about school work. Although I think that there's still a part of me that still considers Christmas day that one special day of the year.
