I was woken up. The mass was about to start. A little grumpy, I was surprised that the mass was in English. I was told that it was going to be in Malayalam. The Malayalam songs were cool. I liked them.

The next morning, I woke up, and unwrapped our presents from Santa. I got a book and some Uno cards. There was candy all over the table, and our socks with different sizes, which we were using as stockings, were all filled with the same amount of candy. I gave our extra candy to the people working at the hotel. I felt so good! It was an action that filled me with joy. I also felt relieved that I had been freed of longing for things.

Then we tried to get to the mall. It took a while to get there, but we did. We booked our seats for the Star Wars movie. We had a little time, so we went to Sparky’s family fun park upstairs. It was very interesting. One side was an indoor amusement park! The other was an arcade. I spent my time in the arcade. Then we had lunch at the KFC nearby. Afterwards, we spent time walking around the mall. I was bored to death. Then we went to the movie theater. We had to wait 45 minutes for the movie to start, but I’m glad we did. The movie was really good. So was the Christmas!
