Now my apartment is no exception, we have christmas lights and of course the very popular christmas tree.. It is not an ordinary tree though. It's a replica of the small christmas tree from the very famous Charlie Brown Christmas movie.
It looks like this....
It stands in the middle of our dining table and I think it brings the necessary christmas joy to the apartment without being too overbearing or in the way. A normal sized tree would just be too much in our place and if anything it would bring stress and discomfort.
I love how this little tree is just a subtle hint of the christmas spirit all Americans seem to think we need. It's almost as if we are just poking fun at how big and crazy christmas can get.
Maybe we can cover this small tree with lots of ornaments to show our over-enthusiasm for this so called "spirit", but then people may come over and comment on how the tree may now feel like it needs to dress up to be beautiful.. Crazy right? I mean trees don't have feelings. or do they>?.....
maybe christmas time is like prom night for trees. they see which ones get picked to go to the fancy houses and which ones get to put on all the fancy garlands, stars and ornaments. (Imagine what kind of trees are going to this "prom" with the popcorn garlands)
Anyways, that is all I have to say on the subject right now because my friend Billy came into my room and distracted me, therefore I now have writers block.
Follow my blog and stay fair trade :)
