Tomorrow will be Christmas, wishing everyone Merry Christmas and enjoy the festive holiday.
This is my first Christmas in Australia and I can really feel the mood as everyone is just busy buying gifts, wrapping and preparing their home for the celebrations. A bit like Chinese New Year, in some way.
Cars and people packed the shopping mall and people holding to bags and bags of goodies for the special occasion. Parents looking for the best toy gift for their kids, friends looking for some nice and special gifts for their friends.
GFC (Global Financial Crisis) is all shelved or decked somewhere, no one wants to talk about after Christmas and New Year.
And... the shops open 36 hours from 23 Dec 12.00am to 24 Dec 6pm. Shop till you drop or whenever you feel like to shop! Very interesting and I think only this time of the year, all the tills kept ringing!
So, what do I do for Christmas break? We were at Chadstone shopping yesterday and the toilets broke down maybe due to huge crowd that they had never received before. But they got it repaired quickly within an hour, else won't last throughout the marathon 36 hours shoppings.
Anyway, just happy to see everyone is in good mood and joyful. Hope it lasts throughout the year!
How do you spend your Christmas break?
