All things magical

I love Christmas! I have been so busy these last couple of weeks with finals and work to really have any fun however. But it is officially Christmas week! I have to work still, but I'm having so much fun wrapping presents, watching Christmas movies and I'm making Christmas cookies today! Sacrificing sleep to do it, but it is so worth it! I noticed this morning when I was at the store, how cheery Christmas really makes people. Strangers who normally wouldn't give you a second glance strike up friendly conversation and everyone is just so happy, well most people anyways. I think part of it is the snow. I've never had Christmas anywhere where there wasn't snow, so I have no basis of comparison, but there is just something about it. The whole world goes quiet when it snows, it's magical. Anyway, I hope I get over my nasty cold by Wednesday so I can fully enjoy it. Happy Holidays to y'all!
