Since early December families gather for the preparations of the gastronomic dishes, the development of the Christmas tree, and receive traditional inns. Guatemala has a variety…

Halloween!! Introduction (attention grabber, a basic introduction to topic, thesis statement) Halloween has a very unique history going back thousands of years. Back then there was a group called the Celts. The Celts used Halloween as the day to remember the end of the fall and the beginning of winter, which evolved from the old Celtic holiday of Samhain. Where they would wear costumes to scare off roaming ghosts and would also light bonfires. Then they took these traditions to America in…

April 15, 2001, a historical day. Historical events happen everyday some are extremely significant and everyone is aware of them, and some go by unnoticed by most. On April 15, 2001 very historic events took place, in addition to my birth. This is the most important day in history because the resurrection of Jesus occurred, tax day struggles intensified, and Fred Lebow was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Easter, the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. A wonderful day every year but…

"If Candlemas Day be bright and clear, there'll be two winters in the year.” according to an old British saying. So what does this have to do with believing in good ol’ Phil’s prediction? Well, for the same reason why people still believe in Santa Claus, just choosing to believe without any doubt just brings animation to the holiday! It’s just fun to believe in these so called “myths” just because it shines a sort of naïve innocence into our dim grown-up lives, let’s face it when we age we lose…

The angel at the top of our Christmas tree glistened as the tree was lit up. The lights were as if they were giving the tree a hug because of how it was wrapped. The presents were all different sizes, they were all different colors too. There were striped, zig zag, blue, green, and red…

with my siblings Nate, Zach, and Rachel. Being the oldest, Rachel organized us all together to start making breakfast. I started to realize that it was the best day of the year, Christmas, 2009. We all helped make coffee and toast to later give to our parents. While we waited for the water to heat up we practice our Christmas Carols we would sing to our parents. Once we finished making breakfast we gathered everything together and headed towards our parents room. We brought the breakfast in and…

comical quality and associations with a certain type of narcissistic, eyebrow-arching, middle-aged man that is now too culturally ingrained. But if you can rock a turtleneck, more power to you. It’s just not me. This is why it puzzles me that, every Christmas since I was five, I’ve received a turtleneck from one relative or another. For as long as I have been able to dress myself, I’ve been receiving turtlenecks and have yet to wear one. I don’t think I’m a particularly chilly-necked person, nor…
