I woke up in the morning, it was 7am. My father and I are going to buy breakfast for the whole family. Then my sister and I will go to my uncle's house to make gingerbread and candies for Christmas today. But first we need to go to the supermarket to buy baking supplies, such as flour, eggs, milk, ginger, sugar, etc. After we get home we will wash our hands and start making cakes. At noon, when the cake is being baked in the oven, we will take a break and have some sandwiches with bacon and milk for lunch. When the cake was done, we would decorate and wrap it up, and half of it I would take home and eat with my parents. At 7:30 p.m., we decided we were going to order pizza and fried chicken for dinner, which is when our favorite show aired. After dinner, I need to do my homework and go to bed early so that I can start the day off right.

The "career" of celebrating Christmas cannot begin if the furniture in the house is still messy, dirty clothes are piled up or the furniture is densely dusty.  So let's start cleaning now.I will spend a whole weekend cleaning my house.  To make the job easier and faster, invite more "comrades" to join in the cleaning.After the house is clean and shiny, the next thing you need to do is decorate everything to shimmer and splendor.To have a complete Christmas holiday, it is impossible without a Christmas tree.To have a perfect Christmas day, there is nothing better than giving love, sending Christmas wishes, small gifts to loved ones.  Surely the recipient will feel extremely happy when receiving attention and affection from us.  That is the meaning of a complete Christmas day: Happiness and peace are thanks to the giving of love.

And here comes the main "repertory" in the plan to welcome a complete and warm Christmas day: the Christmas party.  When my whole house is lit up, I will gather friends and family to come to my house, cook together and prepare the best Christmas party ever.  After having a full meal, I will wander around the mall, shop for something, eat a little something light, watch the snowflakes fall together with the twinkling lights, all of this.  make a perfect Christmas atmosphere.  At the end of a merry and happy Christmas, it's time for everyone to go home and the Christmas party is officially over.Sanitize myself, then get into a warm blanket and enjoy a good night's sleep on Christmas Eve!  And who knows, tomorrow morning you will receive a gift from Santa Claus?

After breakfast, I will tidy up the room, fold the blankets and the pillows to make the bed neat. And a new day begins!
I will sit back and review the lessons that I have learned in class, and learn a foreign language - English or Korean. During the study, I will prepare some snacks too.
After studying, I will relax by watching movies. Since it's Christmas, I'll choose a great Christmas movie. It is convenient to practice listening skills through the characters' words.
