i can't believe it's 3 days until christmas

i'm sure all of you have noticed... it seems like the holidays have lost

their spark haven't they

when we were kids we would always look forward to halloween or christmas

we would look forward to trick or treating or waking up early to open presents

now its like the only thing we look forward to are our days off or when we get paid

i still wished we felt the same about the holidays

well i'm sure there are people out there who do

but i know i certainly don't

i mean, i want to feel excited

i try to enjoy seeing all the decorations and lights and listening to christmas music

and whatnot

but when the day actually comes it's like cool for awhile, you do notice it feels different than any other day

but then halfway through the day it just feels like a normal day again

well.. today i was thinking

concerning the fact that were older now is why were not so excited for the holidays

how do older people feel?

like our parents

it seems they actually do have more spirit in them (my mom atleast) at their age

could it be that.. as we get older we eventually get that magic back?

just because that were aware of the fact that we've been on this planet for such a long time that

we just want to cherish those special days of the year

so that we still feel alive

i dont know @_@

anyways

i'm going to spend this christmas by myself this year

my whole family is going to be in cali

but that's okay

cause on new years i'm going go to......

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! :D
