I did enjoy giving gifts to people, I got to choose a book from Mrs. Van's pile. I chose The Giver because I haven't read this book and I've heard that it's really good. I hope you liked the marshmallow candy-cane stick and the other candies!

For some reason the feeling of 'giving' is somehow better than 'receiving' because you make other people feel good which makes you feel good too! Yes, it is true that gift giving is very, very enjoyable! I received a 'Beanie Boo', 'Mini Eggs', and 'Turtles' which I gave out because I was allergic.

I love doing secret Santa because we get to give to the people we work with, collaborate with, and enjoy each other. I love the feeling of seeing the person you got one the gift you bought them to see a smile on their face. I received this beautiful snow glob with a snowman carolling, my favourite chocolate, and an angel that I didn't see but it sadly got broken on the bottom but I still love it no matter what. Thank you to my secret Santa I love the snow glob and how it's a snowman singing because I love music! See you all tomorrow.

I think it's true that gifting is enjoyable! I felt really good when itz.me.eg liked my gifts! It made me feel happy that she liked something I got her! It's nice when people open the present you gave them and they look really happy about it! I really liked my gift! I got 3 nail polishes and I love painting my nails! I repainted my nails to the one of the colours that I got and it looks really nice.

Oh, yes, I really enjoyed gift giving. Gift giving gives me a warm feeling, the kind of feeling that makes you proud. "I gave that gift!" you'd think. Seeing the smiles on people faces causes a smile on my own. It's really weird, but when you give someone something, it feels like you're giving something to yourself. Hopefully that was clear. I received a bag of my FAVOURITE CHOCOLATE EVER, and here's my message to my Secret Santa (Cleopatra):

I absolutley loved my Secret Santa gift! I honestly had a hard time thinking what I should get for my secret Santa, because I don't really know what guys like because in my house it's all girls and my dad so I had to think hard about it. Well, it seemed that my secret Santa liked the gift, espically the ''chunky chocolate". Secret Santa was a lot of fun this year and I hope we do something like this next year in high school. See you guys soon!

Mrs. Van you didn't post. Well I hope you have fun in Hawaii Mrs. Van and see you in 2016! Something else you should know Mrs. Van is that it SNOWED on Thursday at recess! It was so amazing it snowed really hard but at the end of the day it rained so all the snow was gone :( but at least we got to play in it at recess and lunch in the snow. Well bye and I 'll see you guys in 2016. :)

I'll just ask tomorrow! See you tomorrow!
