Whatever you do, I totally recommend making snowflakes like these. I did, and they look SUPER on a dark wall! http://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Make-a-3D-Paper-Snowflake&printable=yes
Also would make a great craft for older students!



Last year, it was the weigookin dinner party and predecorating the house with the Roomate Trap.�

Step 1) Make chain.



Step 2) In between sips of wine, climb wobbly chair to drape over roommate's door.



Step 3) Got one! Who needs turkey when you have fresh Weigookin.



Oh and.. Merry Christmas! Even though it's still November. Cool

I'm going to wake up at 4am on Christmas Day, and spend all day praying in church for my children to go to a good university and get good jobs and marry into rich families. Thinking about doing the same thing on New Year's Day too.

I plan to go eat at the Seamans club in Busan, but if something better is available, then I may do that instead.

I just want out of this situation I am in and wish for Christmas to pass with nothing becoming a real problem.

I don't do Christmas. Almost every bad memory I have from the past 20 years is because of something that happened around Christmas. Last year, my wife left me and this year (not christmas yet, but) I will lose my job at the end of the semester. Merry F***ing christmas.

I plan on getting drunk starting on Christmas Eve, and sobering up sometime on Boxing Day. Annual tradition.

We will have full Christmas...tree goes up in a couple of weeks...the Christmas movies and books have come out. The girls love when the books/DVD's come out as they know Christmas is coming. We write letters to Santa the first week of December.

Christmas Eve...big party...friends from work and all their children...tons of sweets, tarts, squares, and chocolates...stockings for each of the guest kids...

...and a bottle of Captain Morgan's Dark and one of Appleton Estate...rum is a big Christmas tradition in my house...some mulled wine and apple cider...no eggnog as it is a pain to make......

Christmas Day...up early with the kids...champagne and orange juice and a box of turtles to enjoy...later a full on dinner with turkey and all the fixings...

Boxing day...recovery...usually a turkey sandwich with a little ginger ale...

It's important we don't forget the true message of Christmas - get obnoxiously drunk with perhaps a little vandalism.

I'll be waking up at 6 AM to sing Happy Birthday to Jesus, and then putting on my mistletoe belt and riding the subway looking for kisses.

This is my first Christmas away from my family so I'm not sure what I am going to be doing.

I put up my Christmas tree on Saturday so am in the festive mood.

Ha!!Best thing I've read all day.

I'd join you but I hope the lord Jesus strikes your spawn down with New Zealand pronunciation.
