Usually, we don't do Christmas decorations very early, only maybe tops a week before Christmas Eve. Me n dad go pick a tree from the forest and bring it in usually on the 23rd or 24th, and I then decorate it on the 24th. I used to do the tree decorating with my sister, but since she hasn't been spending Christmases with us for quite a while now it kinda fell down on me. xD As for other decorating... I think I better just show what I've had a long tradition of putting on the living room wall. :'D   Yes, I drew that reindeer pulling the sledge... I think I was like... 7 or something at the time. I still like to put it up, it brings back memories. xD A few years I've done something different though. I used that big wall to make a collage of all the Christmas cards we got, and put the other decorations usually on the wall somewhere else, and I stopped putting up the angels completely I think. It's been a nice change to the usual theme on that wall.  And how about you? How do you decorate for Christmas? |

I put green garland and red bows everywhere!! I also make little red and green labels for mini stockings for the pets, and do up the tree with all sorts of things. Last year I did a white tree with blue and silver for mom, her dream. She'd spent most of the year fighting cancer.. I don't care for white trees though. This year we are going back to our classic green with lights and such I believe, we'll see by the end of the week. I also love anything I can hang from the ceiling, and Christmas window clings. Here's a few pics from 2010..    wow so funny how outdated those animals are. Such is life with foster and adoption!! Someone else post about your Christmas decorations yay yay yay it's almost Christmastime!! |

We usually have a real tree in our living room but last year we unfortuntely didn't get one in time so we had to have a fake tree, but it still looked lovely. We had a purple and silver theme (the purple was for my benefit, it's my favourite colour) and the fake tree had pretend snow on the branches too. Which of course, the puppy ate. XD She also broke a few decorations, at least 15. Naughty pup. I usually have a fake white tree in my room now too, something we started when I was 13, but last year we didn't have it in my room as there wasn't enough space with my new double bed (I used to have a single bed but when you sleep with two dogs you kinda run out of space, especially as they both stretch out) but O'm planning on moving a few things around so I can have my tree in my room this year. Las year we had it in our backroom and it somehow managed to topple over onto the puppy. She was thankfully unharmed but a couple of my Tinker Bell ornaments broke which was really sad. We also got a special umbrella tree last year which we've had up all year but we decorate it specail for Christmas. The usual themes for our trees are, the big real tree - a bit of everything, also the tree the Lilo and Stitch decorations go on The tree in my room - pink themed and for the last two years woth Tinker Bell ornaments on and one year with Bratz dolls sitting in it. Umbrella tree - rainbows The only pictures I can share at the moment are of the bottom of our tree. I'm on my iPad and the only pictures I have are some Christmas ones of my girls that I put on my DA. jessaminediane.deviantart.com/art/Christmas-With-The-Puppies-190641963jessaminediane.deviantart.com/art/Christmas-Is-Coming-272534240And this one is festive too - jessaminediane.deviantart.com/art/Eliza-The-Reindeer-279426521Again, how do you decorate for Christmas? |

At my parents' house we usually have a lot of decorations :3 We've always got a (real!) Christmas tree and many little figurines and lights dotted around the house. Currently in my little student room, I've got some advent lights and a "light-curtain" hanging in front of my window and some tinsel on my bookshelf. I haven't got many decorations here xP No pictures, unfortunately :C
Do you have any Christmas traditions with your family that you always do every year?

*attempts to revive thread*
I can't actually think of the most awkward situation - I've probably repressed it somewhere far in my mind xP But the times I've been told off about things at work are generally pretty awkward. I prefer not to think about it >.>;
Are there any new films coming out soon that you are really excited about? :3

Wreck It Ralph.  Can't wait to see it. But it is Disney and I am a bit of a Disney fangirl. I must say I didn't like the look of Wreck It Ralph at first, but now I've seen the trailers I HAVE to see the actual film. I dunno when I'll get to go see it though. Who do you prefer, SpongeBob or Patrick? Also state why. |

Patrick !, his lack of inteligiance and it not being too much, it just makes him such an awsome character and just makes me laugh, and it makes him even funnier then when he has his bright moments. ^^
Whats your Favourite Childhood cartoon/program you loved to watch when you came back from a long day at school xP

*found this thread interesting* * cries out"LIIIVEEEE!!" in Mushu's voice*
Um well since there is no guidance talent or listening talent (I like to think I give good advice) maybe planning talent? I'm not sure lol I'm not really informed on that stuff.
Did you enjoy your years in high school or secondary school? (Sorry not really sure what the equivalent would be for my European friends) Or if you are still in school, how do you like it?

I actually did, there are many epic memories I have with my friends in secondary xD The part that I hated though, were the religiously obsessive teachers who thought Pokemon was the devil (I'm not kidding, one of them swears she read an article where it says "Pikachu" means "mightier than god"... urgh xP)
Do you travel often? Which countries you've been to?

Post by Jetstar on Jan 25, 2015 8:55:52 GMT
Huge one, and lots of things got in the way of anythng ever happening there. And I mean a LOT of things. But a year later, we were chatting and found out we both had crushes on each other for as long as each other too. I'm not sorry for that year, cause it brought us so close and made us best friends, (Which was needed cause I found out last summer that I'm demisexual, if anyone wants an explanation of what that is, you can dm me ) and now I'm dating my best friend, and she's my first ever love Favourite memory? |

I really like Steven Spielberg. He's done so many great films! What would you consider naming your future kids? (If you had any, if I had a girl I would consider Julia or Jenna, if I had a boy I would consider Gabriel, Silas, or Peter. Names are such fun!) |

Can't wait to see it. But it is Disney and I am a bit of a Disney fangirl. I must say I didn't like the look of Wreck It Ralph at first, but now I've seen the trailers I HAVE to see the actual film. I dunno when I'll get to go see it though.
Also added Christmassy snow and banner :3
I'm currently getting some uni work done before heading to the post office. What's up with you?
