• I will never forget the last Christmas. It was 5 days before them and this happened.
• The trees disappeared. But how? By who? We didn't know.
• We thought that it was a curse from god but some of us didn't agree with them and we thought that the burglers were gremlins.
• We went to the gremlins, we took our trees back again and they would never steal our trees again.

One day, there was an old man. He didn't know when Christmas was because he hated it. One afternoon, he was looking at some children who were running in the snow, but he didn't like kids because he didn't have any of his own. At the enss of the day, the kids saw him and they knocked on his door. When he opened it, they gave him gifts and candies. And from this day, the old man started to love Christmas.

It was Christmas Eve and as Sydney looked down the street, everything was quiet. She never liked Christmas. Well, no, that wasn't true. Christmas used to be her favourite time of year, but since her parents had died and she was left homeless, it had lost its charm.

As she turned at the corner, she saw a group of kids singing Christmas carols. They seemed happy. Everyone did. Everyone was happy, except her. As she walked by the kids, they stopped singing for a moment. They were uncomfortable seeing her today. That didn't bother her. She didn't want to talk to anyone.

Suddenly, a hand grasped her and pulled her through a door into a hallway full of lights and Christmas decorations. It was her boyfriend, Jason. He was smiling and told her to follow him into the parlour, a large room with a Christmas tree in the corner and a large chandelier hanging from the ceiling. Harry was playing the piano and couples were dancing. Her best friend Jane was dancing with Anthony, Elliott with Alex, and Jason was dancing with her to Harry's Waltz.

But wait…

Jane wasn't her best friend. She didn't know any Harries. She didn't know how to dance, and she didn't have a boyfriend…

She woke up. She was lying against the brick wall of a coffee shop, listening to the people laughing and talking. She was filled with a feeling of melancholy.

It started to rain. She covered herself with a coat and tried to sleep again. Ten minutes later, she felt a hand on her shoulder. She hadn't seen the kids approaching. A little boy said:

"Hey, we're singing Christmas carols, do you wanna come with us?". She nodded. He grabbed her by the hand and they walked into the coffee shop.

December was usually a time of happiness for most people but this year Santa Claus didn't feel happy at all. As you know, December is the month that Santa prepares the presents for all the children from all around the world. But that year, something strange happened. When Santa Claus went to his workshop to see if the toy machine he had prepared and decorated the presents for the children, he noticed that the toy machine had been broken by an enemy.It was the 24th of December and Santa Claus didn't have any presents for the children. He was so disappointed that he couldn't make anything for them. It was 25th of December and the kids didn't have any presents under their christmas trees. All the children felt so sad that when Santa Claus realized that, he went to his room and he died from his sadness.

I will never forget last Christmas…it was great!Me and my family went to America.Before we went to America, the aeroplane had a stopover and we went to Paris.!!In the town, we went to eat french food.We stayed in Franch for two days only.When we arrived in America, we went to my and my brother's grandparents house.When we went in the house ,we ran to the sweets,which were in a bowl in the living room.Our grandparents were like 'Wow'.When me and my family left their house we went to our grandma….When we entered her house we quickly put our clothes in the closet.Then we went to watched a television show.At the same time , we ate pop corn and then we ordered pizza.The next day we went SHOPPING.My brother and I unfortunatelly finished up all the money…After two weeks , we went back to our home in Aegina……

You never know what you will see

Many years ago, there was a family with one boy and one girl. One day, their father got fired from his work and they didn't have enough money. When it was Christmas, it was very cold and the family was going to ask for help until the parents gave the children to an institution.

When the boy got to 12 years old and the girl to 9, someone adopted her. The girl was adopted by some very good people and they gave her everything they could. But no one adoped the boy and when the boy was 18, he found he was good at writing stories. He tried to make a good life and he made it, but he was empty inside because he wanted his sister.

The girl had a very good life and she was earning a lot money from her work. When she got to 37 years old, she tried to find her brother but she couldn't. The boy tried too but he couldn't either. The boy had found a very good job and earned a lot of money. He had a girlfriend and they had a family with two girls. The girl had a family too, with one boy.  One Christmas, the boy gave a lot of money to find his sister. When they told him that they knew where she was, he felt the happiest human in the world. He met her and saw that she wasn't the good little girl he was remembering. He did't want to see her again and because of that, he always hated Christmas.
