This year

I feel as though Christmas flew by. Ever since I entered high school, the holidays seem to go by and I am not able to enjoy them as much as I did when I was younger. My family always
coalesces for Christmas, but I cannot enjoy the anticipation for when Christmas comes because I am always busy doing homework, and then all of a sudden Christmas seems to creep up behind me and I am not prepared for it to come yet. I like when my "Christmas anxiety" builds up inside of me because it fills my soul with holiday spirit. But, since it comes so fast, I lose that effect inside of me. But, Christmas will always be my favorite holiday because it is
ethereal to me since it creates such a beautiful and timeless season for everyone. School always tends to make the time before the holidays
saturnine due to the fact that sometimes I won't even have time to decorate the tree because of all the homework I have, which gets me very depressed sometimes.
But, school cannot put a damper on the fun that I have with my family during Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. My family is the loudest and funniest group of people that you will even meet in your life! My entire family means the world to me even though all of my uncles (my dad's brothers) hector me every single time we get together. I am an easy target since I find what they joke about hysterically funny and they are like brothers to me. Also, every time we are all together, my dad and his brothers will always perform ruses on their sister's kids, which we all get a good laugh at. My family is 100% Italian, and they won't every let you forget it if you ever meet or talk to them. My grandma makes incredible homemade Italian food that makes my mouth water at every holiday...especially Christmas!
