there is a Santa Claus

I Believe I believe that there is no tooth fairy,or santa clause,or leprechaun,or easter bunny.There is no such thing as those simulated,Imaginary folktales. Just like one time earlier in my age about when I was three or five…..kids were super excited when they lose their teeth. They would say “The tooth fairy is going to my house…..I am going to be rich!!!!” I of course thought…. what the heck are they talking about.My parents always tought me at this age that the tooth fairy and the other…

The machines puffed in their vertical dance. The device plowed its instruments through the ingredients, forming a cement-like paste. The bowl tipped, spilling the thick paste across the rolling belt. Hot metal sheets dropped to the dough; roaring with steam under the press. As the press lifted, the belt revealed the newly formed shapes, all meeting precision to their kind. The sweets tumbled across the belt, one catching the hand of the inventor. He lifts the heart shaped cookie and situates it…

If you plan on attending a Christmas party this year, chances are the the theme will be "Ugly Christmas Sweaters." Most likely you'll head to the local thrift store to hunt for one last minute, only to walk out empty handed. Maybe if you're lucky enough, you'll already have a perfecty hideous one from years ago. One question that still remains: What is up with this atrocious holiday sweater craze? Today, I'm here in my bright red, gaudily beaded cardigan to give you some insight on what these…

The presents are unwrapped, the delighted squeals have passed, and your hyped-up-by-sugar children are enjoying some sun-time fun time outside with their new cricket set. The last thing you want to hear while you're getting Christmas dinner ready is the not-so-delightful crash when the new cricket ball meets some glass. It is difficult to find an emergency repairer on Christmas day, and you probably don't want to pay that call-out fee anyway, so what can you do to protect the smashed window…

A Christmas Carol is a classic tale of joy, generosity, and finding your holiday spirit. However, the story did not start off with everyone holding hands and peace on Earth. It began with greed, hate, and antagonism. The story continues to progress to the end, and as it does changes in its tone. Both versions of A Christmas Carol end with the heartwarming mood the story is so famous for. The drama and the movie based off of it have many similar qualities, but differ from each other just as much.…

This past Sunday I attended the school play, which was a comedy based along the storylines of The Christmas Carol. I noticed many people from the community brought their children along for the comedy. For someone who doesn’t really care for plays, or Christmas it was somewhat interesting to go into the play having doubts beforehand and coming out of it with a different view. The exposition started off the same as The Christmas Carrol. Scrooge was being his typical self, hating everything about…

Century'. Acting was great, I always like to see Toni Collette doing something out of her rhelm as well as Adam Scott. Krista Stadler had me though, I was very much into her character and history in the film. So remember if you never lose your faith in Santa, or KRAMPUS will come to punish you for not…

two music videos to “All I Want for Christmas is You” by Mariah Carey. The first music video has movie style footage. It features Mariah Carey’s family and her dogs. The video has many snow scenes, including Mariah Carey running in the snow with a Santa suit. Her former husband is seen in the music video, baring gifts for Mariah. The second video is filmed in black and white with backup dancers and singers. She was dressed in a 1960s style outfit with white boots. The…

Normally people recognize the smiling faces they see on their neighbors front porches, but one week a year, neighborhoods all over the country are invaded by scary faces peering out at them. Stranger Danger? Don’t call the neighborhood watch quite yet! Those spooky smiles are Jack-O-Lanterns carved by festive neighbors and probably signal they will have some good loot on Halloween. What someone carves on their pumpkin can tell you a lot about them. Some people who are sports fanatics might…

Andriana Skaperdas Life Rumor has it.. that is it’s the “Holla Days” As soon as people ripped off their halloween costumes, it seemed that they were caught putting up their christmas lights. We should take a moment to pay tribute to the poor forgotten holiday that is caught between these two events; thanksgiving. Good, now let's focus on the presents, oops I mean the present. It really is the most wonderful time of the year. Spirits are lifted and everyone seems to be in a better mood.…
