How to cope with excitement for the holidays?
So I'm 13 and in love with fall and winter. I LOVE all the holidays. But this year for some reason I'm excited extremely early. In the beginning of August I was already hyped for Halloween. I was looking on Spirit Halloween's website and going into stores to see if they had put decor out yet. I'm also crazy about autumn and how all the leaves change and you get to wear sweaters and hoodies all the time (which is basically my wardrobe the whole year lol) But now I'm just a little bit hyped for Halloween, it's kind of died down. I'm actually really really pumped for Christmas this year. This year me and my family are possibly going to New York to see the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade for the first time. Plus my town puts up really cool and cute decorations all around, it gives you a fun Christmas spirit. Ugh I just love it. But I've never been this excited this early in the year before. How can I cope with my excitement and make time go by faster?
This was typed on my IPhone so sorry for any mistakes or autocorrect. Haha.
