Its the day of the year again!!
Everytime this year, my friends and I will really fret over what to do. When I was a tad younger, I will always think of partying, booze and party games. But now, it is the nitty gritty stuff that really gets to me. The options for a splendid christmas party seems really limited.
Firstly, we have to account for the number of people attending the party.
It is all about acommodation! Friends will have family dinners on the eve of christmas. But for my family, we will have a traditional christmas dinner on the day itself. The hype of christmas eve is about counting down, which I think is pretty pointless. But I really like to be in the atmosphere of christmas!!
"JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE ALL THE WAYYYYY!"
Secondly, VENUE! I think it is really difficult to find a good place for everyone to be comfortable. As we grow older, we realise that our friends gets lesser and increasingly, people start getting attached and their partners will come along to the parties for christmas. Then the venue dictates the activities planned. If we are gonna have a house party the host, food, activities and atmosphere has to be to the point in order to reduce any tinge of awkwardness and etc among the guests.
Thirdly, the activities prior to the countdown. That includes the food and games. That is normally the major question because due to late exams and countless trainings in schools, no one would offer to take the lead to plan. Most of the time, this results in a PHAILED party.
ANYWAY...............
To prevent all the above from happening, I would suggest to leave to the professionals to plan your lovely christmas! So leaving the house party alone and indulging in the outdoor atmosphere at a good, nice, small quaint restaurant followed by a mini party at a bar or a less crowded club would do just fine. But on the flipside, the this would result in a smaller wallet.
Whether a house party or an extravangant one, just remember.....
As much as we want to celebrate christmas perfectly, I guess we cannot forget the notion and traditions of christmas. It is to celebrate the birth of christ. (; I will try to make it a point to celebrate my christmas mornings at church.
I really love singing christmas carols and happy jingles during the festive season!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL.
