Sounds like a interesting holiday, it reminds me a lot of Independence Day for us Americans on July 4th.

It's not really a holiday, more like a feast day. I can't remember exactly what it's about(it's been a looong time since read christian literature) but the tradition stayed, I guess.
Ah found something: The tradition of planting wheat on Saint Lucy's Day (December 13) comes from Hungary, Croatia, and other European nations. Plant wheat grains in a round dish or plate of soil, then water the seeds. Place the container in a warm spot. If the planting medium is kept moist (not sopping wet), the seeds will germinate and the shoots will be several inches high by Christmas. Then the new green shoots, reminding us of the new life born in Bethlehem, may be tied with a ribbon, if desired, and a candle may be placed near them as a symbol of the Light of Christ.
And when it grows it looks like this:

@Phantom it wasn't a bad day, I was just tired.
@Toasty well I do have a short break now, Christmas holidays and all that so I'll take it easy but I still have to study every day. Thanks for worrying you guys! Hugs for both.

I had fun the last few days, hanging out with friends doing almost nothing... the best! We were mostly discussing what we were going to do for New Year's Eve. I usually celebrate with my old high-school friends and the last few years we celebrated at a friend's house. It's a fairly big space, his parents would celebrate somewhere else so we had the place to ourselves. It was really fun, there would be about 10-15 fifteen of us, lots of food, drinks, a cozy atmosphere and we'd always find a way to keep ourselves entertained.
But this year that friend is in Poland and none of the rest seem to have a wish to organize a party. Seems like everybody is celebrating somewhere else. A few of my other friends asked me if I wanted to go to a club with them, but I'm not sure. I like to go to clubs sometimes, but spending the entire night doing nothing but listening to loud music and drinking is not my idea of fun for New Year's. I told them I'd think about it but I would almost rather stay home with my parents and their friends. At least I won't be hungry.
So, do you have any plans already?

I haven't really thought about any thoughts for New Years myself, but usually I end up hanging out with my friends, and we buy ourselves some alcohol or whatever we want to drink, and we have a good time talking about what happened in the last year, and usually we always talk about what we're going to do for the upcoming year, I've done this the last year, and I don't think I'll change my plans either, I'm content enough with what I usually do.

@Toasty yeah, that's what I like to do, too. Hope it won't be bad this year...
@Konan thanks, but I'll be okay.
No, I've never made any resolutions, you?
@Phantom that's sounds fun, too.

Sounds great Leo-chan. Maybe I'll end up celebrating home, too. Maybe.....
I can't believe it actually snowed today! For the first time this year and I didn't get to see it because I was sleeping. All I saw was a little snow on the ground when I woke up but it melted soon enough. Oh well, it looks like it won't snow next week.
But on the bright side I went shopping today again. I think I bought something for all my friends now. We spent most of out time in a toy store, haha. Damn, I can't remember toys being that cool when I was little. I would so play with them even now.

So today... hm, nothing really happened today. I spent most of it at home, got stuck on the internet and now I'm baking cookies. They turned out great, if I do say so myself.

What type of cookies are we talking Kim? Just plain cookies or chocolate chip cookies? And do you mind if I have a few?
