How to celebrate Dec 19th

Start your day by baking a batch of delicious oatmeal muffins. Use a simple recipe with basic ingredients you already have in your kitchen. Enjoy the cozy aroma and warm taste as you kick off a day of celebration.

Next, embrace your inner emo by listening to your favorite emotional music. Create a playlist of your top emo songs and let yourself feel all the feels. Consider journaling your thoughts or drawing to express yourself creatively.

Take a break from the emotional journey by indulging in some hard candy. Treat yourself to a variety of flavors and textures, savoring each piece slowly. You can even challenge yourself to try new types of hard candy you’ve never had before.

After satisfying your sweet tooth, head outdoors to look for an evergreen tree. Take a walk in nature and appreciate the beauty of these sturdy trees. Take photos or sketches to capture the serenity of the moment.

As the day winds down, embrace the spirit of giving by participating in a re-gifting exchange with friends or family. Wrap up a meaningful item you already own and exchange it with someone else. Share stories or memories associated with the gifts for an extra touch of sentimentality.

Lastly, honor heroes and heroines in your life by writing them a heartfelt note or sending them a message of gratitude. Reflect on the qualities that make them special and let them know how much they mean to you.

End your day feeling a mix of emotions, from nostalgia and gratitude to creativity and sweetness. Embrace the diversity of experiences and emotions that weird national holidays can bring. Cheers to a day filled with oatmeal muffins, emo music, hard candy, evergreen trees, re-gifting, and honoring heroes and heroines.
