Tbh 😮 I dislike hearing Christmas carols and music until Christmas. Christmas is the only time I’ll ever tolerate it. And the coral would have to be jingle bells

What holiday do you enjoy the most with all positivity and excitement? (Can be any holiday) Autumnal equinox :), I'm always incredibly excited to know the season's changing and the world's getting quieter
What one word best describes the holidays for you? Cold ; I'd say so in all senses of the word, whether it's Christmas or other holidays it often feels the same. Christmas especially as it's physically cold and it's always a kind of bitter reminder how distant I am to some people :( but I really enjoy it
Since there's only 4 days left until Christmas, what is that Christmas carol that gets stuck in your head the most?Rocking around the Christmas tree 🌲 it's so catchy :)
Finish the sentence: “It’s not Christmas (or any holiday) without..... Individual traditions :) whether mass like a Christmas tree or Niche like eating a certain food on Christmas eve

…little multi-color lights in a big clear vase I have. The vase has etching on it so it makes the lights sort of twinkle. I don’t put up a tree but the vase with the lights in it is my sort of tree.
@Clarisse29
1) I enjoy Halloween the most! Even though I don’t celebrate it, seeing all of the costumes definitely brings positivity and excitement into autumn! 🍂
2) There is this annual community-wide Halloween party to just about everyone in my county attends, and I heard that it is a lot of fun! 🎉
3) Engagement 🫂
4) I don’t celebrate Christmas, and I have never heard any Christmas carols. However, I’m sure that they all sound wonderful! 🎶
5) Santa, the big jolly fellow! 🎅
1) Halloween is my favorite! You can dress up and be anyone. Then you pass out candy total total stranger with no obligation for gift giving!
2) The city does a tree lighting ceremony.
3) Busy
4) Jingle Bells
love your questions!!!!
