CBC's Sounds of the Season

CBC celebrates the Christmas and doing contributions and donations. On December 6 they had a festival celebration with the workers and people who went to donate and enjoy the musical environment. My classmate and teacher went and had fun.

We enjoyed the radio studio program (99.1 FM). I had fun singing and followed the singer from Mexico who sang the Spanish version of  Merry Christmas song.

Christmas!

Christmas is a beautiful time to spend with family and friends. It’s one of the holidays that all kids wish to come very soon. Everyone is looking forward for Santa Claus to share gifts.

Christmas day is a special day to give and receive love, hugs and kisses; it’s a time where everyone can express respect and enjoy the meaning of the Christmas. Nowadays some people don't show their love but it’s never too late to give love especially to your family because time goes by so fast.

In Venezuela, we celebrate Christmas from December 24th. Usually, we have a dinner on that day. We make different dishes for the dinner accompanied with wine or champagne that is for receive the Christmas. On December 25th everyone is so excited to go under the Christmas tree for a gift from Santa Claus. I heard that Canada celebrates Christmas the same day as Venezuela, but on December 26th every Canadian celebrates Boxing Day. It’s interesting because on Boxing Day all the stores have sales but it a crazy day to do shopping.

This is my first December in Canada and the first time I see the snow, it’s a different weather than Venezuela, but I like it. I can't wait for Christmas to come.

Merry Christmas!!
