(COMPARE AND CONSTRAST ESSAY) CHRISTMAS BEFORE AND NOW.

Christmas is a time of the year that excites us all, wether we are children or adults. But it is also true that adults don't enjoy Cristmas as kids do. Because of that, I would like to compare how I lived Christmas when I was younger and how I do now.

I think that there are  things that don't change; for example, when I was a child I was, as now, enthusiastic about decorating my house with every type of Christmas item like Santas, Christmas trees, red candles, etc. I have always loved Christmas decorations and I am sure I will always love them!
Other thing that I used to love was walking on the street seeing all the Christmas lights , listening to carols in every shop I went,...  I also loved that this typical man in the shopping centres dressed as Santa Claus gave me a lot of sweets. Today, I still enjoying these things!

But not everything is now like few years ago: when I was younger, I saw Christmas as something magical, because Santa was comming to give me a lot of presents, but now, I think that Christmas is just a commercial thing.
Before, I only received presents and they were big, cool and expensive, different from now, that it's me who have to buy a lot of presents and, instead of receiving money, I spend it!

In conclusion, I can say that Christmas is not the same thing when you are a child and when you are adult, but, although that, it continues having its good things!
