So I've effectively avoided any and all "Christmas cheer" on campus, and to tell the truth, I do not think I missed much. The people in town have slipped from their throne of crazed euphoria to a more sullen, depressing state. I believe it has something to do with high credit card bills or "debts", whatever all those are. Why do people owe so much

It's not all that bad! Really. Did you at least spend time with your family?

[lacklucidity]

My family? I only have three family, and one I know I have but cannot find.

And no. I saw none of them this Christmas. I spent it studying and preparing myself for the upcoming classes. I like to be ahead.

That's terrible! I'm sorry...

[lacklucidity]

Don't be. I was not aware of the holiday and it's purpose in the first place, so wasn't really missing out on much. Who are you?

...It's been blurred. If you would care for a history lesson, I would tell you how it's lost it's meaning. But none the less, it's still one of my favorite times of the year.

I'm Hotaru Tome.

Aha. I think I know what you mean. I hear it has religious undertones... or overtones? Depends on perspective, I suppose. Perhaps I'll learn about it in my religion class. I wish I understood why everyone was so nauseatingly joyous. I was just bored and cold.

I'm Kadaj. Good to "meet" you.
