I hate holidays Options

[BlackCelicaGT94]

I have no family and we have no tree. We dont do anything on holidays. We go to our seperate rooms and thats it. Then my bro and i try to tell my mom that we just dont have x-mas and she gets pissed! and she then turns it into as us getting mad that we dont get x-mas presents which isnt true - it just would be nice if we had a big family that got together or if that christmas spirit was there.


I just hope you guys realize how neat it is that you guys have what you have and that i wish i was you guys. Atleast i have the health of my family :-( well most of my family!

At least you have some family. I've celebrated Christmas by myself for the past two years.

For what it counts:
Merry Christmas Natalie

I think the Christmas spirit belongs to each individual, having a family to be with is nice but even when I live by myself I'm gonna have myself a christmas tree Anyway, cheer up, you still have your 6gc family!

[spunky393]

yeah, when i live by myself, it'll be jsut like that dell commercial. Where the 3 guys just go nuts, they know they bought the stuff, but look at the fun they have. That's spirit, that's life

[creis]

I know how you feel, me and my sis are the only ones under 48 in my family (witch is just me, mom, dad, sis, 2 uncles (who are single) and my grandma who is really too old for it all and my grandmas sis who is also too old), so for every family get together its just use, Where not religious so there is no real meaning other then family and friends. It use to be pretty fun but now everyone is just getting board of the same old thing every year, every holiday. I wish I got to have a real Christmas like a lot of the people I know, but it’s just not gana happen. What makes it worse is that my sis and I are the sole people, meaning that when my mom, dad etc start getting to old to do things on there own, it’s all up to use to help them out.

Just remember you’re never alone on Christmas.

- Merry Christmas Natalie.

Family is a team effort, if you dont have christmas and don't do anything about it your just as much to blame.

[SlowCelica94]

Sorta agree with uppity. But try to work on it next year. Or even still this year. Just go out and buy ur rents and sibling a gift. And if be all like, "bitch im celebrating!" Then hit em.

[creis]

your just as much to blame.

I have to disagree with that a bit, wile its true in the sence that if you do nothing then nothing is gana get done, but its hard to get the rents to do anything, even if I try to, there is just not enough athouity (for lack of a better word) in us youth to get them off the couch.

[SinisterWhisper]

Moving around has meant that while I have never really gotten to have best friends per say (kinda hard when on average you live in a place a year) I have known alot of people. This little tidbit has taught me that while everyone has certain things that others envy no one's life is perfect and that we should cherish what we do have. Sorry to hear you don't get to celebrate christmas but I am sure if you started describing your life we would all be jealous of something you do posess.

[Jonathan]

[CelicaBuddy]

[creis]

Your a witch???

I gata stop adding subliminal messages in my replys, people will find out my secrets, Oh and POOOF you remember nothing.

have a kid everyday!

Its a sad day when a parent wants there 19 yr old doughter to have a baby

[Newbie]

I spent it alone too.. I was trying to wish you a Merry Christmas, but I guess you didn't get it.. Oh well. I hope you feel better, because I thought I was the only one that spent holidays alone.

[BlackCelicaGT94]

Ha thanks but ill pass

[Hanyo]

you have a family.. a family of 6gc'ers

we all gather around in natalie post warmed by the soft glow of our computer monitors.

i dont even celebrate christmas, all we do is have a big christmas dinner.

[Anub1s]

Well Natalie I'm sorry that you did not have the best Christmas, although you did get some nice gifts. Just remember that we still love you (me most of all ), I spent the day working my butt off because of people that obviously don't believe in Christmas nor care about others having to spend the day away from their families. Yesterday I was truely pissed off about having to do all kinds of stuff to pick up others slack but I decided that there was nothing I could do about it and that I should FIDO (Forget It and Drive On) it. It is still bugging me today but not as much, don't let your mom get you down, you know that she loves you even if she doesn't show it all of the time. Just tell her that you love her and show it to her, she'll come around. I hope that the rest of your holiday season goes better, and I wish you the best of next year.

[Digndoug]

Hey It Blew for me too. I sat around waiting for my faimly to get there **** stright, was pissed at my older bro (long story butgot into trouble and has ****ed the faimly over an just got kick out of where he wasstaying) then my dad alway sleeps late, he got into the habit of the bars he owned. Then I said **** it, and went to my G-parents then we all just sat around and drank wine. I did even opena single present yet. There STILL Sitting under the Fuccking Tree......

[Jonathan]

You guys are all ****ed up
Christmas is the celebrating the birth of jesus.And in years this holiday,this celebration has been exploited by the retail market etc.

Im sorry if you had a bad christmas but who cares.Maybe you should stop whining and complaining.

When i was a kid Christmas was the bomb...Now that I am an Adult its crappy.But who cares

I only got three gifts from every person in my family..Sometimes only one.


WHen the Wise man Came to see baby jesus they brought one gift each.total three gifts. I gave three gifts to everyone.Im not trying to preach cuz im not that type of person..But seriously..Think more before you open your dirty mouth.

Remember..What is christmas ?

What is easter? What is THANKSGIVING DAY ? etc

[Anub1s]

Excuse me? All I said was that I was sad I didn't get to spend the day with my family. I don't give a **** about what you have to say what Christmas means to you if you are being an ass about it. I believe that it IS a celebration of the birth of Jesus, but its also a time for spending time with the ones you love. Not dealing with ass holes all day that don't give a crap about you nor your family. Presents are not a big deal to me, you obviously didn't notice that I didn't post anything in the Christmas presents thing because I don't care about the material aspects of it, I care about my friends and family being happy. So if I were you I would not be a Moses, right now. Your preaching to the wrong choir.

Dude, please leave the religous things out, this is a public site, and not everyone has to have that meaning for christmas (wile there is absolutly nothing rong with that meaning.) Everyone probibly has there own interpertation, or like my family, use it more for an exscuse to get to gether and exschange good feelings (or not so good feelings in some cases,) but alteast to show where there, Gifts are just a sign of feelings. and wile what they are does not matter, or even getting them does not matter, its all in showing that your willing to give something to make them a little happy, or make there lifes better.

Jesus wasn't born december 25th. Constantine adapted the pegan holiday held on the 25th to make the conversion of the Roman nation to Christianity less disruptive. But hey if you wanna believe the kid stories about 3 wise men that were written down a century after the so called event then thats your choice.

A religion built for the intent of being a political tool, then spread with blood shead and destruction. mmmmmmmm righteousness....

I know I like my religions drafted by tyrannical politicians


OH and Thanksgiving....thanking all the Christian immigrants that performed genecide on the endogenous peoples of North America. Its shameful how Americans and Canadians alike can turn a disgusting time in our history into a celibration.

You can't really look at it that way uppity. We celebrate the good things in life on those holidays, maybe they got the idea from those events but Christmas is a Christian holiday made to celebrate the life of Jesus. No where in the rules of Christmas does it say that Jesus was definitely born on December 25, just like you said it was a date that was chosen for celebration of His life. You sound like you are on border line paranoia with that stuff. It's okay to let people believe what they will...trust me

Its not paranoia, its just little know fact And yes even not being religeous I like to celebrate during holidays like anyone else, celibrate life and family, thats what it is for me.

[Anub1s]

Thats what it seems to really be.

[creis]

funny I though thanksgiving was a celebration over the big feast that both sides shared when the native people accepted the new people onto there lands and into there homes, it was not till later we screewed them over and jacked there sh%t.

I always love watching those shows on the history channel about what the bibal really says when you translate it correnctly, and how most the miracals are not what they really are maid out to be in the current translation. kinda makes it show how gulable people can be some times.

(sorry if I affend anyone with that statment(s) just my opinion)

Ya I like those shows to! Watch em all the time.

Ya I know what Thanksgiving is supposed to be about, Canadian kids are fed all the stories just the same. But I doubt Native American families celibrate the holiday to any large extent It would be like the Trojans celibrating the day the greeks gave them the Trojan Horse, or in our case the Greeks celibrating the day they delivered the horse.

Ya man its pretty crazy how you grow up believing these ideas of how glorious the founding of our countries were. I found starting highschool that they give you a much more real picture of how things really were rather then the fairy tales you here in grade school.

Jonathan seeing how your a religious man why not love thy neighbor and shut up? Your supposed to spread the word of God (not the I buy into that but hey you should follow your religions stuff) not alienating forum members.

Sometimes I wish I could just leave a 2 word reply, I probibly should most the time anyway, save myself from people who dont like me.

but, like this post, Ijust seem to have to say what Ithink.

[BlackCelicaGT94]

its my personal decision to not believe in god or a higher being. Do i bow my head when people say grace at dinner? yes! i am very courteous of the fact that not everyone sees things how i do. I lost my grandma and tried to find god/religion again but i couldnt. Thats just me! These holidays are nice and growing up yes it was all about hte presents but now i just wish i had the family part :-( but since my grandma died its nothing. it has no meaning. :-(

[creis]

"You just have to find your own meaning for christmas"

Mine is about re-connecting with old family and Friends that I may have lost tuch with over the year.
