Christmas here is way different from Christmas back home. Or like, what I heard Christmas back home was like. Christmas Eve is a big deal because it's all about couples, like Valentines Day jr or something.

And I was thinking about that and it got me wondering about what other places do for Christmas, and the places that don't have Christmas since there must be tons of worlds where all the stuff that made Christmas happen just didn't happen there.

So I've got a question, kinda.

What's Christmas like for everyone back home, if it's different from this place? And if you're from a place that hasn't got Christmas, do you do anything like it?

Just wondering.

Yaknow it's kinda weird, but...I remember Christmas, but I don't think we ever celebrated it back home. I never really asked anyone why that was cause I figured it wasn't that big of a deal. We never did anything like what's been done here, at least.

[fortunatetoaster]

that is kinda weird. what kinda christmas do you remember? was it like it is here with just swapping gifts on the right day?

[awesmazings]

I....think so? Like...I remember Christmas, and I remember it being really cold and snowing a lot like it has here. But the specifics are kinda fuzzy.

[fortunatetoaster]

huh. i guess it's different for everyone's family? like if it wasn't a big deal for you, that's why you didn't celebrate it. or your country, i guess, since christmas aint that big all over.

[awesmazings]

Well y'see, uh...I don't really have a family? I mean it's just me, Cerbee, and my friends...so maybe that's why it was different.

[fortunatetoaster]

Oh
Sorry about that :(
I'm the same back home, kinda.
I have my sister and my friends, but that's it.

[awesmazings]

Nah, it's okay! Can't really miss what you never had, haha
I mean my friends are pretty much my family as it is. Your family can be that way and it's just fine, I think.

i typed <font face=yeah> smfh

[fortunatetoaster]

yeah!
i mean my sister is definitely my family
but my friends are just as important as her

it's ok I feel you

[awesmazings]

See, there ya go. So it doesn't really matter so much, so long as you got people you love and that love you back.

So what did Christmas seem like back home for you?

[fortunatetoaster]

i haven't had a chance to do it yet, but i heard about it from my friends...

it's kind of like a second valentines day? christmas eve is a special day for couples to do stuff together like eat chicken and get cakes, and then on christmas day, you have a big party and swap presents

so it's a little different from what everyone's doing here

[awesmazings]

I see! Well, that's still pretty cool. I guess every place just does it differently, huh?

[fortunatetoaster]

yeah!! that's why i wanted to ask. because i figure there must be at least one different world for every single person here, so that must mean there's like a million different ways of having christmas!

i want to learn all about the different worlds out there!!

[awesmazings]

That sounds like a really good idea. There sure are a lot more than I thought, that's for sure. It's pretty amazing.

[fortunatetoaster]

I kinda wanna see if we can keep count somehow. Like make a tally or somethin whenever someone new turns up from a new world.

[awesmazings]

Huh...well I guess that wouldn't be too hard. I will tell you, when people show up? It kinda happens around the same times, usually.

Like if you pay attention next time it happens, you'll prolly be able to guess when new people might start showing up again next month.
