12th December ~ Christmas Song of the day

It’s Hump Day and I have a class today. I am not feeling that motivated to drive to campus for an 80 minutes class. I am going to spend more time in the car, but what can you do. I will be listening to today’s song, Run, Run Rudolph to lift my spirits.

This is a song that I associate with Christmas because I know that it was on one of the CDs my parents always listen to around Christmas time. And now I always listen to it in December.

I hope you have a great day, and don’t let the fact that it’s Hump Day bring you down.

Love, Nea

11th December ~ Christmas Song of the day

It’s time for the Christmas Song of the day and today I went with a classic. Deck the Hall. The lyrics are according to Wikipedia from 1862, written by 
Thomas Oliphant. This song is sung by Choirs and by artists. Down below are a few of my favorit versions of the song. 

This is one of my favourite songs to listen to while I decorate the house. I really like the Pentatonix version. 

And how doesn’t love Julie Andrews. When I hear her sing, I think about Mary Poppins and all the great memory’s I have of watching that movie. 

Which version is your favorite? I can’t decide. I love them all. 

Hope you have an amazing Tuesday!

Love, Nea

10th December ~ Christmas Song of the Day

It’s Monday and I wanted today’s Christmas Song to be uplifting and dance-friendly. This is a song that I listen to when I dance around and clean the house. And it’s: Feliza Navidad. 

And I also like this version with Celine Dion. She has an amazing voice and I love the Christmas Song’s that I have heard with her.

I wish you a fantastic week, from the bottom of my heart!

Love, Nea

Situation Sunday ~ 9th December

It’s December and we are getting closer and closer to Christmas. Every Shop I see have decorated for Christmas and now the stress begins. Christmas gifts, the food, the cleaning of the house and to make this Christmas like everyone else. And that everything has to be perfect. 

I saw this ad from Clas Ohlsson on YouTube and it felt so appropriate that I decided that I needed to share it here whit you. (I am not paid to share this).

Happy Stressfree Christmas, an ad from Clas Ohlsson.

Why do we have to stress? Christmas comes each year either way. And why do you need to have a perfect Christmas? I know that some Christmases in the past that I have stressed. Everything had to be perfect, especially the first Christmases together with my husband. But he doesn’t care. 

I love Christmas, but now I sit down and think about what I find important with Christmas and not what everyone else does. For me, Christmas is about spending time with the people you love and I have promised myself not to stress this year. At least not with Christmas. I think I will have my hands full with packing for my time studying abroad. And I really don’t need to stress over Christmas as well. 

And I hope that you all don’t stress and take care of yourself. What’s the most important thing for you about Christmas? Is it the tree? Is it presents? The company? Just sit own an think about it. Maybe list the important things and take away the not important things. Maybe cut down on the food that is served. Just do what’s right for you.

Today is the Second Advent and when my husband gets home we are going to light the second candle. And probably watch a Christmas movie. And that will be the perfect ending of this week. 

I wish you all a wonderful Sunday!

Love, Nea

9th December ~ Christmas Song of the day

Today’s Christmas song is Underneath the Tree. I love this song because I think it sums up my feelings that I care more about being with my husband then the presents under the tree. Christmas isn’t Christmas to me without him. 

I think Kelly Clarkson Has an amazing singing voice and I like her music. And this song is perfect for my Christmas playlist.

Have an fantastic Sunday!

Love, Nea

Elf ~ Christmas Movie

One of my all-time favourite Christmas Movies is Elf. I watch it at least once every December. And I have already watched it once this year. My husband does not understand why I need to watch this movie every year, and sometimes more than once. So I usually watch it when he isn’t at home. So I can watch it in peace. 

Picture source: IMDB

The movie is about Buddy (Will Ferrell), a human who has been raised on the North pole by an elf. In the movie, he finds out that his not an Elf and he leaves the North Pole to try and find his father Walter (James Caan) in New York, who didn’t even know that Buddy existed. 

Gif from Giphy

The movie is hilarious and it always gives me Christmas feelings. I love how Will Ferrell plays the role of Buddy. It’s funny and believable. And I think I need to see the movie at least one more time before Christmas.

Watch the trailer down below!

If you haven’t watched it jet I can highly recommend it. And if you have seen it, why not watch it again! Curl up in your sofa with some hot chocolate and someone you love. 

Love Actually ~ Christmas movie

One of my favourite Christmas movies is: Love Actually. I like that you follow different people and see how there lives change over the time of the movie. This is a movie that has it all. Love, angst and so many funny moments. 

I can’t actually explain the plot. Not in a good way at least. The movie is full of amazing actor and actresses. Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson, Colin Firth, Keira Knightley, Alan Rickman and Martin Freeman have parts in the movie.

This song is a part of the movie and I like it. It’s actually on my Christmas Playlist.

If you haven’t seen this movie yet I can recommend it. Maybe it’s a good idea to watch it this evening. 

8th December ~ Christmas Song of the day

The Christmas Song of the day is: Christmas Through Your Eyes by Gloria Estefan. This is a song that I remember from when I was a child. It’s a song that gives me Christmas feelings and I think the lyrics are where beautiful. 

This song is always one my Christmas playlist. And I usually listen to it when I am decorating the tree or baking some Christmas goodies.

I hope you have an amazing Saturday.

Love, Nea
