To All Those Christmas Haters


           Christmas time truly the best time of the year and it’s never too early to start celebrating. The official time to start the Christmas festivities is considered after Thanksgiving. Scratch that; Christmas celebrations should start after Halloween! Some people believe that the Christmas season starts too early. LIKE WHAT? Never, ever will it be too early to start celebrating Christmas. Apparently those Christmas haters have not yet experienced the joy of the best holiday all year.

                The best part of Christmas is the wonderful music. There is even a whole station on the radio dedicated to just Christmas music! The sad part about this is that they only start playing the songs after Thanksgiving and they stop on Christmas Eve. Once again: LIKE WHAT? That only gives us about a month to enjoy it. I think they should start playing Christmas songs at the start of November.

                Another great think about the Christmas season is the decorations, especially Christmas trees. The best trees are the real trees. No fake trees up in here. Real trees make the house smell like pine and the outdoors. Plus each real tree that is bought is different. This makes each Christmas unique. If you don’t want a real tree go buy a fake one but probably thousands of other people have that exact same tree. Don’t be a follower.

                Apart from Christmas trees the best decorations are lights. Christmas lights just seem to make everything brighter and happier. The greatest lights are the multi-colored strands. White lights are boring so go with the different colors.

                Christmas movies are icing on the top of the cake when it comes to the Christmas season. Elf, It’s a Wonderful Life, and A Christmas Story are some of the best ones. These movies are great to watch even when it’s not Christmas time.  By far the best Christmas movie is Elf. It’s absolutely hilarious. Will Farrell does a great job of playing a lost adult elf in New York City. I would recommend this movie to anybody.

                Overall, Christmas is the greatest time of the year. Music, decorations, and movies all make up to a great holiday season. The true meaning of Christmas is to be giving and thankful for everything we have. It’s such a cheerful holiday.  How can someone not want to start celebrating as soon has possible? So to those Christmas haters: I hope one day you start to enjoy the wonderful festivities of the Christmas season.
