Oh Christmas meme, oh Christmas meme...

My sis tagged me, so here we go!

1. What is guaranteed to make you smile over the holidays?

Definetly going to grandma's house and seeing family. While some people don't show their faces anymore, there are plenty of cousins who are growing up and are actually almost adults, and plenty of younger cousins who love me.


2. What makes you weepy during the holidays?

Nada. I'm not much of a crying person.


3. How will you spend Christmas Eve and Day?

Christmas Eve morning started by waking up at Grandma's house, and then driving up to my parent's house to hang out and open one present (which ended up being Monopoly Here and Now Edition, whcih i played with my dad, and handily destroyed him). Christmas day started early with present opening and cinammon rolls, and then my parents and I hopped in cars and drove to my apartment.


4. What was your most memorable Christmas and why?

I think it was the year I got my SNES. There is video of me sitting on the floor in my room playing Zelda: ALTP and I'm just kind of zoned in on playing.


5. Christmas form letters from friends -- pro or con?

Eh, right now I don't care. I keep in almost daily contact with my friends, so reading a Christmas letter would amount to "Why did you send this? I was there when that happened!"


6. In your home is Christmas more of a religious or secular observance?

A bit of both, though in my home I didn't really decorate. It seemed pointless since I'm not huge on decorating, and my dog would just try to eat everything.


7. What is your favorite Christmas Carol?

I'm not sure.


8. What is your deepest prayer for the world this Christmas?

A clean-up of the middle east. For Palestine to stop shooting rockets at Isreal, for the Isreal not to go along with their plans to put Jewish settlements in Palestinian lands. For Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to have a stroke and get off this whole "we need nukes" kick. For Iraqiis to stop killing each other so we can bring our troops home.

Oh, and a female love interest for myself. But that seems like small potatoes of a deepest prayer when you compare it to the rotten evil that resides like a cancer in the cradle of civilization.
