X-MAS

Today we learnt at school about Christmas.

Let me tell you something about it.

First of all when does people celebrate Christmas, what is Christmas and who celebrate it?

People celebrate 3 days of X-Mas from the 24th up to the 26th. The 24th  December is called Christmas Eve. The 25th is called Christmas Day and the 26th of December is called Boxing day.

On Christmas Eve people go to the church and on this day people don't eat any meat or fish.
On Christmas Day people celebrate  Jesus Birth and they celebrate it with the family and people they like. The Boxing day is celebrated in a few countries. On this day people open some X-MAS presents.

I have got some Austian friends and they told me how they celebrate this day. They told me, in Austria there is only one day important. They do everything on Christmas Day like unboxing and celebrating with the family. They belive Jesus was born on this day.

I don't celebrate Christmas because I am a Muslim and we have other days to celebrate.

That's Christmas as far as I know.
See you soon and I hope you will have nice holidays.
Yours Umutcan!
