The weather is getting colder these days in Hong Kong, finally it feels more like a winter and also feels more like a real X'mas holiday is coming soon.
Been studying in Catholic school for 14 years, X'mas is always my favorite holiday, not because the gifts you can exchange with your classmates, but the warm, wishful, cheerful atmosphere among the whole the campus. We decorated the classroom, searched for different X'mas cards and send them to friends, we prepared and had the celebration ceremony together, we gave, and we shared. Even I can't recall exactly what we had done in old college times, those kind of the memories can't hardly be compared with other holidays.
I particular like the X'mas in a snowy place, thought a true X'mas should be like that. The past few years while I was in New Zealand, though it's fresh to see the Santa Claus in shirt and short, I still think wearing heavy coat and fury hat is the correct dress code. The X'mas I had in New York back in 1999 was the most closest one, with a bit more snow flakes will make that memory even perfect.
So wish that one day I can spend a special X'mas, with a person I cherish most and/or with a bunch of good old friends, gather around the fire place in a snowy city, and share the peacefulness and joyfulness belonging to this particular holiday season together.
Merry Christmas!
