Anyways, today is the fourth day of December, which means only 21 days (3 weeks) until Christmas! I love December because 1) It is my favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite MONTH out of the ENTIRE YEAR 2) It is my BIRTH MONTH so I look forward to my birthday 3) I love the Holiday Spirti- decorating the Christmas tree, listening to Christmas music, decorating the house and all those type of Christmas-y stuff.
So I know that everyone looks forward to the gifts during Christmas time and I understand because the anticipitation of not knowing for like 3 weeks what your friends, family, and relatives got for you can be overwhelming, but I don't think it is good to get too caught up in the gifts; it is also about spending time with family and friends, but most importantly celebrating Jesus' birthday and the gift God gave to us so we could be saved. Being a Christian, it is very important that I don't forget the true meaning of the holiday and to always remember why Christmas - December 25th, is such an important day. So I want to encourage you as we celebrate Christmas all throughout December, let us remember the real reason for this holiday and to always celebrate for that reason. I'm not saying you shouldn't be happy andl looking forward to the gifts, but don't get too caught up in it, that you forget there's more to it than just opening presents.
Just thought I would share my thoughts on that, but anywho, I finished (well almost lol) my Christmas wishlist, but I kind of realized that I don't want to many stuff because my parents are already spending so much. I'm really happy though because I already I'm getting one present that is kind of like my birthday/Christmas present (but it is mostly my birthday present) and I'm so excited to get it.
AHHHH I'm so excited! I've been dreaming about this camera since this past summer and I'm so glad that I am able to get it!!! I've been wanting to improve my photography and actually study it because I think that it is beautiful and it is really fascinating! It is a really cool and amazing camera and what I love about it most is that it has an articulating LCD screen that you can use for both video and camera mode. So like for instance, say you were taking a picture of a flower, but you wanted to take it a different angle, instead of just looking straight at it; you could easily rotate the screen and take the photo at different angles.
I really hope I can get it because it is a lot of money since it is one of those professional cameras. One thing I know for certain is that when I do get this camera, I will be taking pictures non-stop. My parents will literally have to pry the camera out of my hands just to do my homework, or do chores, or stuff like that.
It is really expensive; it is about $129.00, and the camera is $500+ so that's out of my wishlist, but It would be nice if I could get it for a cheaper price.... LOL
But basically, the only thing I would like to have is just the camera; I don't want to be one of those people that they have to buy more, that they can't just have 1 present for Christmas.. But I'm happy with what I have , so need to complain; some people wish they could have at least 1 toy for their son or daughter....
I was thinking about instead of buying so much gifts, I would buy some and donate it to charities so that some children can have Christmas gifts, like Salvation Army, Red Cross, etc ( I don't know that many) just to give back to the community.
Well, that's all i have to say for today. I'll take to you later! Please share my blog with your friends and tell them to follow me! Thanks and buh-bye! <3
