Dorm Xmas Tree

I'm a Christmas junkie, so as soon as Halloween ends the holiday season starts for me. The ritual has usually been pretty simple. I'll throw on a Christmas movie, this year it was Christmas Vacation, and I'll put up my plastic tree. It'll be up until mid-December when I take it down and head back to my parents house for Christmas. A tree is a great decoration though, and it certainly sets my dorm apart by making it feel more comfortable, relaxed, and home-like.

Here is a quick little video of me putting up my tree last year. There was really no sense in making a new video because the process and the look are pretty much the same every year anyway. It may only be me and the department stores setting up this early, but here's a little dose of Xmas to get you counting down too.

OMG. You are one of THOSE people! I don't even think about decorating until Dec. 1st and then that's pretty much all I do...think about it. Not that I'm bah humbug, I'm just lazy. It takes over 8 hours to decorate my parent's house and that is more decorating than any sane person needs to do during the holidays. But it's a nice tree, so Happy Holidays!

I've never really decorated because I never spend christmas at my place - always at my parents. But this year, with a real apartment, that I'm going to live in for more than just a year, it feels wrong not to.
