I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, filled with joy, happiness, good food and presents! I had a wonderful Christmas, with my family. The only negative thing was, that my little sister was sick, like last year... It'sbecoming a Christmas tradition... Well to look on the bright side, she wasn't to sick to dance around the Christmas tree, and open gifts. The days after Christmas are always a bit of an anti-klimax, with al the excitment of Christmas over. But I always focus on the things that are coming, like New Years Eve. My grandmother is turning 70, on the 1 of January, and therefore we are throwing a birthday party for her, on New Years Eve. And this gives me something to do, these post-Christmas days. Because I have to make a dessert for 12 people, and this dessert takes 5 days to make.
I am so unbelievalby bored today.... So, here comes 10 random facts about me:
1. I live in Denmark, you know, on top of Germany, in the middel between England and Sweden. 2. A always try to look on the bright side of life. 3. Yes, I went to church on Christmas 4. For me ballet is not a hobby, it's a lifestyle 5. I get good grades 6. People think i'm kind of wierd, because I fool around all the time, but still love school, and wear high waisted skirts. 7. I don't want to be grown up or a teenager. I want to be a child... 8. I have a little sister and brother. 9. I'm really sensitive and worry a lot. 10. Dancing turns me inside out.
Today it is Christmas eve!!!!! Here in Denmark we celebrate Christmas tonight, so it is here we open presents, and stuff like that. For our Christmas dinner we eat goose, white and brown potatos, and rice porrige, sounds kind of wierd, but tastes delicous. We all so have Santa Claus coming, with the gifts, which my little sister (3 years), is totally exicted for. To all of you who celebrate Christmas, I want to tell you a story, or just write some of "The night before Christmas", my absolut favorite Christmas book:
It was the night before Christmas And all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, Not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung, By the chimney with care, In hope that St. Nicolas, Soon would be there.
The children were nestled, All snug in their beds, While versions of Sugar plums, YAAAAY!!! SUGAR PLUM FAIRY!!! Danced in their heads.
And mama in her kerchief, And I, in my cap, Went to sleep, For a long winters nap.
Then out on the lawn, There arose such a clatter, I sprang from my bed, To see what was the matter.
Yes..... I know you wanna here want happend next, don't you :P Weeeeell, I'll just tell you that a man in red comes, and gives gifts and says:
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night, - Me <3
I love family Christmas traditions, like going to see the Nutcracker, and baking cookies. But every family has a wierd tradition.... In Denmark we celebrate Christmas in the evening the 24th, and the 23th is called "Little Christmas eve". On little Christmas eve, we ALWAYS, and I really mean always, eat hot chocolate-soup. It is basicly just hot chocolate in a bowl, eaten with a spoon. It is really quite wierd, but if we have something else for dinner, it is just wrong! What is your family's wierd traditions??
Hot chocolate in a bowl, and merry little Christmas eve, - Me <3
This is one of the most beautiful videos on youtube ever!! I always have tears rolling down cheeks, when I watch it... I wish there were more of those people like the woman. More people that help others, even though they aren't like them. I also feel so sad for all the people who are blind, or any other kind of handicapped. God bless them. That reminds me of the Christmas song "Christmas is coming".
"Christmas is coming, goose is getting fat Please put a penny in the old mans hat! If you havn't got a penny a haypenny will do, If you havn't got a haypenny, Then God bless you!"
I'm so thankful that me and all my family can see all the beautiful days!

Today it was the last day at school, before the holidays! So now I have Christmasbreak! Yaaaay! I am going to or summer residence (or know it is winter residence?). I have spent Christmas' here every year since I was born. It is an old farm, with two houses and a garage, all in white with loads of garden around it. I love being there, it just makes me feel home. Actually I lived there just when I was born, but it was only 1 year, from when I was 0-1. It is never really Christmas until I get there. All the baking of cookies, decorating and caroling, is really just the best.
