“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!”

For some odd reason unknown to me, high schools cannot have the slightest hint of Christmas decoration. Something about the separation of church and state. Why is it then that the capital buildings are allowed to have elaborate trees adorning the hallways. Why, even the White House has a stunning display this time of year.

Now I am no longer in high school but this thing called a university. Here there are giant wreathes and trees that have been put up just this week. One particular tree was put up again today. Upon noticing it on Monday I wondered if there would be some sort of quarrel concerning it. Nonetheless, it made me smile. On Tuesday I did not go to that building because I decided sleeping was more fun than class. By Wednesday the tree had been removed and it was a heated topic of discussion within my religion class. Today, as I was walking out of class I noticed three ladies putting it back up and have come to find out that the professor of the class I skipped on Tuesday was the one who demanded that it be taken down. Lame. I would skip the day my professor throws a fit about a Christmas tree.

My roommate and I would also like to decorate for Christmas. We then realized we are both broke. Our plan is to have a Charlie Brown Christmas. In order to have Christmas decorations on a budget we are making snowflakes and paper chains to put up all over the room. A branch from the pine tree with a blanket wrapped around it will serve as our tree. Christmas decorations and music just make me happy. This blog had no specific direction or purpose but I am happy about decorations and music. The end.
