Christmas is already 7 days more to go. I am sure you are busy with wrapping gifts already to be given to family members and friends. So for your self what do you like to receive this Christmas? Are you for material things? or is already happy and contented with what you have and focus on just giving. Merry Christmas.

I have been given gifts already from my father. I don't expect other people to give me. But just today, my aunt said and promised me that she will give me presents this Christmas. I don't know yet what it will be.

That is good for you if you already have gifts for christmas. This season is a season of love, faith, joy. Let us not forget the real meaning of the season. I hope you would like what your aunt will be giving you for christmas.

I'm not expecting any gifts this Christmas. Our family is not the type who would usually send some gifts to others, We are not that wealthy enough to give gifts to others. Maybe next time If would have a stable job, I will give some gifts to others.

same here we don't usually practice the gift giving and eating on christmas eve. We just attend to mass as a family and enjoy the season with the family. It would be nice to spend our own money on things we want to buy and on things we want to give. Let others experience the spirit of christmas by giving what we have and sharing what we have especially those who are affected by the calamity in mindanao.

hi,rbjat. i am from China, and the Christmas is more and more popular in China, i love this festival very much for the snow, the Santa, and the Jingle Bell thing. I don't want a special gift, as you say, i am really happy and contented with what i have. But if my husband(he was my boyfriend just one week ago :-)can give me even a small gift or surprise, i'll be very very happy, cause he's not a romantic person. and i'd say he's really a good guy

Well I have received a lot already and should be thankful and contented, that's why it's better for me to think of how I can give to others and somehow make them happy. However, I'll be honest. I am still waiting for GOD to answer my prayer. I am asking HIM to give me a wonderful girlfriend.

I have already received the first gift this Christmas, a shirt chosen to fit my personality which I really appreciated. I am expecting a gift from my online friend any day this week and I just hope it arrives on time for Christmas. The family is very much into the gift giving thing not only for Christmas gifts but for birthdays and other occasions like graduations and others. It is not actually the price that matters but the thought that you have been remembered. I love receiving gifts and I also love the idea of giving especially when I see the appreciation in the eyes of the receiver. I have not done any gift buying though because of the crowd and traffic but I am planning on Christmas Day itself to buy gits for the family and friends. Anyway, we have decided on New Year to be the family reunion and celebration.

I just hope I get to spend time with my family, we are all spread out and Christmas is usually the only day of the year we get to see each other. Other then that, gift cards would be nice xD

I usually don't have specific choices unless Iam having a gift change or something like that. I don't mind any gift but if I was given a choice, I would prefer not to get anything consumable or food products.
