I can’t decide if I like Christmas or not, I think it’s a
strange time of year mainly because there’s such expectation that it will be
the best day of your year and you will be happy and you will love every second. I don’t think of myself as a ‘Scrooge’ but I
do sometimes struggle to truly embrace the Christmas spirit when Christmas day
arrives. However I love the build up, from
buying gifts you know people will love to dancing round the house to my
Christmas playlist while covering as much as possible in glitter and tinsel.

But there is just something about Christmas day itself,
which is always slightly disappointing, nothing in particular, there’s always
just an air of ‘oh’. Is it just me? I suspect not, anything that is built up
that much for weeks on end can never quite live up to expectations. The huge sense of pressure to have fun is
also quite stressful; I don’t think any day can live up to that. Quite often I
think spontaneous things are the best, so if we could all just pretend
Christmas isn’t happening up until Christmas Eve and then suddenly universally
shout “SURPRISE it's Christmas tomorrow!” it would be much more fun in my
opinion.
