Normally, I would think of Christmas as a time of celebrating everyone and everything in one's life, but recently it's been working the opposite way round for me. This year, advent has been a time in which I've had the opportunity to see who my real friends are, the ones who're just in it for the fun, and the ones I'm no longer entirely sure why I bothered to develop a relationship with in the first place. The past few weeks has been a surprisingly difficult time. One filled with exasperation and having to tread exceptionally carefully in order to avoid saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. It's not just me, either. Everyone I know seems to be getting more and more exasperated, and for no apparent reason. Friends who happen to be extremely happy at the moment (and believe me, there are very few) are merely a source of jealousy and annoyance for the rest of us.
It would seem that I'm longing for the winter break even more than I would usually be.
