Christmas is more than a day in December
It’s all of those things that we love to remember
It’s carolers singing familiar refrains
Bright colored stockings and shiny toy trains
Streamers of tinsel and glass satin balls
Laughter that rings through the house and its halls
Christmas is more than a day in December
It’s the magic and the love
That we’ll always remember

Stress--what we are all feeling this week due to finals being around the corner; however, there are many things to look forward to after the semester is over, such as Christmas! The time of the year when we all get together with our families and enjoy a good meal. There is no definite definition of Christmas, since many celebrate it differently based on their culture and religion.
For many, a tradition is to get around the table and have a great dinner, listen and dance to some music, and open their gifts on the 25th of December. Christmas is a day in which everyone is happy and spends quality time with their loved ones.
For those who live only a hundred or thousands of miles away from home, they feel the excitement of reuniting with their families again. Christmas is a day full of joy and happiness. Good luck on your finals, and Happy Holidays!
