Holiday Celebration

As for me, I am American-born Chinese who celebrates Christmas as a fun holiday. In my family, we would listen to Christmas songs, enjoy cookies, open presents, and spend time with family. The Christmas songs that I listen to are O’ Holy Night, The Twelve Days of Christmas, The First Noel, Gloria In Excelsis Deo. Jingle Bells, White Christmas, Silver Bells, Silent Night, and several other songs. My mom would bake Pillsbury cookies, the ones where cookies are already made, but needs to be placed into the oven. My family would spend time together by going out to dinner at an elegant restaurant, watch a concert, or visit our family members in California. Some of the concerts that I would go to include Christmas or Classical Music. In California, I stay in the Southern California region, in cities of Arcadia and Temple City. My cousins live in Arcadia and Downtown Los Angeles. My grandma lives in a Senior living center in Alhambra. When we go to see my grandma, we would take her out to dinner, talk about pastimes with her, and play mahjong.
