Merry Christmas!

I hope you will have a wonderful holiday season (if you celebrate christmas). It has been snowing like crazy here in Finland. I was just out making some snowlanterns and shoveling snow. I love this time of the year! I also know that I am going to be very happy with the gifts I am going to get. How do I know that? Well, I bought myself something I really wanted. Something that will bring me joy for the whole year of 2010. What is it? A James Dean calendar. I love those classical black/white or sepia “old filmstar style” photographs.

In Finland christmas eve (that is the 24th) is the main christmas day. On the evening of the 24th santa will come and give us our little gifts. Or, as it is a custom in our family, he’ll just leave a present bag at the door. He’s such a busy man ;)

Questions for you:
-do you have any christmas traditions?
-do you like snow?

    Thanks, so do you!

    1. Putting up the tree and giving Santa pepper jack cheese and mountain dew. Baha xD

    2. Heck yea!

  2. Simone says:

    Oh how I wish it would snow here. It does on rare occassion. If only I lived up North (:

    1. Yes, instead my family gathering together to open gifts and such like others we do all of this on the 24th I guess like you guys do in Finland.

    2. Yes.

    Honestly you right, isn’t a “fun game” to toy with other people’s feelings. I think that toying with people’s feelings are some of the things that lead people to kill themself and others and develops low self esteem and a lot of stuff like that.

    Have a marvellous Christmas! I wish I could have a White Christmas, but I doubt that would happen! And as for Christmas tradition, I don’t really have any XD

  4. Isa says:

    Well my mom and I never open gifts on Christmas morning, its usually a few minutes after midnight xD

    -do you have any christmas traditions? Nope. Haha.
    -do you like snow? Yes! I love snow, but it never snows in Christmas because it’s summer. xD

  6. Shur says:

  8. Minna says:

    Christmas traditions: not really, the regular. Watch Kalle Anka at 3, eat, hand out gifts, sometimes go to church (if I wake up in time).

    Love the snow, I’m Scandinavian heeellooo? =D

    Merry Christmas neighbour ;-)

  9. Erica says:

    Merry Christmas, darling. I hope yours is full with all the beauty, love and laughter that you deserve.

    Oh, and I meant to tell you (but I think I may have let it slip my mind) that I sent a fanmail / autograph request out about two weeks ago. If I ever hear anything back I will be sure to let you know.

    xo.

  10. Bea says:

    Thank you! I’m glad you like it.

    Me too I hope you’ll have a wonderful holiday season. You’re lucky, because you have a White Christmas. It’s great :)

    wow the James Calendar sounds good. I love those classical black / white or sepia “filmstar old style” photographs. A couple of days, I saw in a store a photo of Rock Hudson in black and white, I might buy it, I don’t know?

    Merry Chritsmas for you and enjoy with your family!

    -do you have any Christmas traditions? I open the gifts early on Christmas Day:)
    -do you like snow? Yes, I love it.

  11. Bonnie says:

    oh thats cool that the 24th is actually the main christmas day (: i still have to wait one more day , 25th, to open presents haha.

    -do you have any christmas traditions?
    notreally. just wake up in the morning, open presents and have christmas dinner with family (:

    -do you like snow?
    just looking at it, yes. but snow = cold and i dont really like the freezing cold ahaha.

  12. Nicole says:

    I love snow. Very much.

    Our family doesn’t really have a Christmas tradition, but we always do come up with something spontaneous to do in the evening. Happy Holidays to you, too! ♥

  13. Georgina says:

    I’m sure that calendar is awesome. I love those kinds of photos too, though I don’t have any I know what you mean. 8D

    -do you have any christmas traditions?
    Nah, not really. We used to go to this family friends’ house for Christmas all the time but they don’t have those parties anymore.
    -do you like snow?
    Yes I do. :D It doesn’t snow where I live though.

    Merry Christmas!

  14. Senyth says:

    I don’t know who James Dean is, but you do sound really happy about the calendar. :)

    I wish it would snow here! But I bet it’s freezing cold! :O

    Happy Christmas!

    -do you have any christmas traditions? ~Yes, we do celebrate Christmas on the night of the 24th, but we don’t have Santa placing little gifts. Aww, it looks so cute. Do you know who that Santa is?
    -do you like snow? ~Yeah, even though I haven’t experienced it. XD I just love the thought of snowing. Haha.

  15. Kathy says:

    Aw, I hope you have a good holiday too. (: Lucky, there was a blizzard here last week, but the snow is still here. :D Oh, sucks that you have to shovel the snow. xD I didn’t cause my throat was feeling funny and I didn’t want to be sick on Christmas so I rested and now I am healed. HUZZ-AH! A calendar? Well, I think… AWESOME! :D

    Yay, for Santa to give presents. I’m stalking him right now. :3 Shhh, don’t tell him.

    -do you have any christmas traditions?
    Nope. Not that I think of. ;D

    -do you like snow?
    YESH. I just hate the cold part.

  16. Shannon says:

    I don’t have many Christmas traditions really. I remember when I was younger, my mother, sisters and I would go to my grandmother’s house. We’d have to each read a scripture out of the Bible before opening our presents. It was okay but Christmas has definitely changed for me.

    I hate snow! It’s always in the way!

  17. Gillan says:

    We celebrate at the eve of 24th too :)
    Nice gift for yourself :) I should get myself a gift too :D

    -do you have any christmas traditions?Yes
    -do you like snow?I’m sure i would if there is snow here XD

  18. Kate says:

    Merry Christmas, hope you got what you want. :)

    Ha Ha! :) I’m sure that they will begin really soon. :)

    -do you have any Christmas traditions?
    Not really. Do you? :)

    -do you like snow?
    I do. But not too much! It should stay about a week and then I don’t want it again.

  19. Rachel says:

    Thank you.

    You’re lucky that it has been snowing by you. It rained on Christmas here. -_- Pretty gross if you ask me; I hate the rain.

    I hope your Christmas was awesome. :D

    -do you have any christmas traditions?
    Nope, I don’t celebrate Christmas.

    -do you like snow?
    Of course. :D I hate the cold though. D:

  20. Amanda says:

    LOL ! Aww that’s awesome ! I Hope you had a good christmas!

    -do you have any christmas traditions?
    Hmm, I don’t know. Opening Christmas presents right after we wake up? XD
    -do you like snow?
    Yess! Well, at first. After it gets dirty, not so much XP

  21. Cher says:

    You’re so lucky you get snow xP Hmmm.. interesting. You get Christmas an entire day earlier… no matter which timezone.

    Christmas traditions? nope =(
    Do you like snow? YES! but I’ve never seen snow before *sniff

  22. Alice says:

    Happy Holidays, and a happy New Year! I don’t really have any Christmas traditions now I am older, I don’t think I will have any firm ones until I have children or a family. I love snow, but only as long as it doesn’t disrupt my life lol

  23. emma says:

    i really like the idea of snow but it really gets in the way of transportation
    belated merry xmas!
    and happy new year!

  24. Kayt says:

    yeah, I know what you mean. This Christmas didn’t feel like Christmas at all to me, I don’t know why. Maybe it was because we only got money this year as a gift, or maybe the fact that there wasn’t any snow…

    With my family we always open our gifts on Christmas eve, so I guess for us as well the 24th is the “main day”. The 25th is when the family gets together for a nice dinner.. mmm lol. I hope you had a great Christmas! :)

  25. Kendra says:

    Thanks, and you too. :)

    I think it’s incredible that you live in Finland. That’s really, really cool. I wish I lived somewhere interesting hahah. :/

    I like your Christmas tradition there. We open most of our things on Christmas Eve and make a big deal out of Christmas Eve as well. It’s just how my family does it haha.

  26. Tiffany says:

    Hey, long time no talk! How are you?

    Wow, you live in Finland? That’s cool! I just live in the States lol.

    -do you have any christmas traditions?
    None in particular :)

    -do you like snow?
    I LOVE it!

  27. Clare says:

    Our Christmas Tradition is to decorate the house and go to church.

    I like snow, but only when I am inside watching it. I don’t like to go out in it. Brrrrr!!

  28. MIMING says:

  29. Carla says:

    I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! (I Did!)

    I wish it snowed out here in Louisiana. Just a few days ago, it was about 65-70 degrees. SOMETIMES it snows. However, it usually dries up in the morning.

    Happy New Year to you!

  30. Catherine says:

    Aw I wish it’d snow here xD It snowed here a little while ago, and it was quite a lot. But now it’s all dried up :/

    Merry Belated Christmas :D & Happy new year ^.^

  31. Manda says:
