December reeeeeeally isn't my favourite month at all, and I'm not a huge Christmas fan. Colors wise, I'm really trying to get through this arduous task that is a monochrome profile. I'm extremely close and I can almost taste it.

I hope this event is super fun! \o (Taking capricorn12)

I'm starting college in January so right now I just want to survive and enjoy Christmas. I've had a looooong year. xD

Grabbing heichou12.

For one thing, I'm absolutely stoked for Advent Calender itself! I love these times of the Colors year, hahaha, I love seeing everyone chatting with each other, I love learning about the other players. I just really enjoy these events! And I'm looking forward to my own day as well, hahaha, gotta start thinking about how to banner and such....

I'm looking forward to roast lamb, and a Christmas day with just me and my loserprince. This'll be the first Christmas I have ever spent 100% apart from my relatives, and that is something that really appeals to me. It probably makes me a bit of a cold, unpleasant person! But I'm excited by my independence, I'm exciting by the lack of obligation, I really am just very pleased to be spending it how I am. Gonna roll about and snuggle and eat great food all day, yeahhh boyyyy.

And then it's my birthday!! BIRTHDAY STEAK. What else do I even have to say, there's nothing better than birthday steak, man.

I'm gonna take ladyship12! AND NOW I AM GOING TO GO MASTER IT, SOMETHING ELSE TO LOOK FORWARD TO, YAAAAY

[harmonium]

I'm really looking forward to family celebrations because I love Christmas and I love getting together with my family. ;w;/ It doesn't matter what we do or what we have or anything, it just makes me happy to be with the people that I love even as we make stupid jokes and play dumb games and laugh when someone gets nailed in the face because of that Uno game that fires cards at you or something.

UHM. Though in Colors I'm going to master my first special deck that's not the Celebration one that was fairly easy to get so I'm happy there. 'w'

I'm going to be taking broom12 \o

[saya]

OMG already December.

My hopes for December? Well first of all I'm moving to a new apartment, so I really hope everything will be going as it has to, and that I won't be without internet connection for to long.

Second is that my BFFs baby arrives on time and that he/she (still don't know what it will be) will be healthy and everything will be ok.

Then there is also my birthday, and I really hope that my friends won't be pranking me like last year.

And then I hope that it will be nice and festive and warm and cuddly, and I hope when my friend from Rome comes to visit at the end of December we'll have lots of fun =)

For Colors: I hope to manage to actually start doing some achievements soon!

December~!♥ Is one of my favorite months, actually, and I'm looking forward to next week, when my niece comes here for the weekend with my mom. And then I'm probably going to spend Christmas with them later too, because there's nothing better in Christmas than seeing an almost 5 year old girl all excited and happy. But if they have other plans, then I can have plans with euploeamulciber, so we'll see... Ohhhh, I'm also looking forward to surprise Christmas holiday from work, that they are actually doing for the first time ever this year. (but it's not like we're full time workers if this sounds weird, we only work for a few hours in a day.) also Christmas food at work, because the group making it always makes great food and bakes great stuff! :D And wrapping even more gifts to my niece is going to be a thing, once I find more for her... I should try finding something simple and nice for a few others too, but the kid gets tons of stuff as always.

Colors wise, I'm looking forward to this Advent calendar because this sounds fun. Also mastering a few decks, and getting to collect one of my favorite characters ever during this month, because wow am I looking forward to the release!♥

I'll be taking automail12, and wow, speaking of mastering decks, I can now master her deck and a character by Arina Tanemura, while I am at it~. :D

[inarticulate]

Honestly, I'm mostly just hoping that I remember it's December and don't have to scramble too much because I forgot that there were holidays. I keep reminding myself, and yet…!

Colors-wise, I have some crayons to trade in for masteries, but nothing too exciting. I'm excited for this event, I suppose? I didn't even know it existed, so that's a pleasant surprise! After all, the Anniversary event was what brought me into Colors in the first place. And snagging troubadour12, thank you!

[despedia]

Awww yeah Advent Calendar /)'w'(\ my hope for December colors wise is just to finish my portfolios (i'm really close but i've slowed down on colors because Reasons) and master more inazuma decks, a noble mission.

I will be taking rudehero12!

[aaveplsgo]

My little cousin's birthday is in a week so we'll be celebrating that! I might also be going to my aunt and uncle's for Christmas, it's not decided yet. For the most part I'm just taking things easy and getting myself prepared for going back to school in January. And continuing to work on my mass decks, of course!

I'm taking decalogue12!

[beccastareyes]

A friend of mine was diagnosed with cancer and starts chemotherapy in the first week of December, so I'm hoping that is both relatively side-effect free and effective. I hope she and her fiancee have a minimum of other stressors as they deal with this.

As for Colors, I don't really have any goals, but I'm excited because the first Special deck I donated will be released in this month's release.

Let's go with sin12 as my choice card.

[accelerator]

Heh...reeeaaaaally not looking forward to December for personal reasons. Colors wise, though, I'm gonna continue my mass deck and try to master the special deck I donated for this release.

Advent Calendar Day 01

[chuu]

December especially is going to be a month where I want to think about the end results of my classes this semester. I'm seriously hoping to get good grades for them come the end of exam week. I also can't wait to finally get new ornaments since for years, my family has had the same exact ones and we decided on getting new ones this year. You know, just to shake things up a bit.

Going to take composing12 for this!

[ravengown]

I'm hoping that 1- my job continues to go well, 2- that my birthday is nice uvu and 3- that my family vacation at the end of the month is awesome1! I don't observe Christmas but I adore the month anyways, haha.

Colors wise, I am just going to hope that I'll maybeee be able to master a deck this month? It's not very likely though whoops. But I've been having fun here!

I'll be taking masochist12.

[totling]

My real world hope is that one of the places I've interviewed with gets back to me for a job, that would be a perfect birthday present, but ... I also want to spend time with all the people important to me, in person and online, because it's that time of year where I survived November (always a bad month for me) and happy things are rolling around again!

As for Colors, I'd love to finish a portfolio, cry.

Grabbing avalanche12!

[reineh]

Hopes for December? Aside from spending a wonderful time together with my family, I also hope that we get to put up decorations this year. We skipped out on it last year, but this is probably one of my favorite things to do. Having the nicest looking house throughout December

For Colors, aside from mastering the things I'm currently collecting, I don't have anything else in mind~

I'll be taking funland12!

[kuranosuke]

It would probably be easier to list what I don't look forward to in December, but let's see... I think the biggest thing for me is seeing my family and spending holidays with them. I don't visit home that often, so it's a good chance to spend a lot of time with them.

Colors-wise, I finally get the birthday bonus from the release, haha- though I don't look forward to getting older, really. My aim is to master my palette portfolio, which is only four decks away, before end of the year so that's something to look forward to as well.

I will also look forward to seeing what the Advent Calendar holds for us, since I don't have a chocolate calendar this year.

Taking allure12 from this ♥

[naegg]

I really hope to watch some good series with my friend this december ♥
And for colors - mastering at least one deck!

Taking lifeenergy12!

[acperience]

I'm looking forward to (hopefully) having my siblings get together for Christmas, since most of us are in university/work in a different city/etc. and therefore major holidays are really the only time we all see each other, aha.

Colors-wise, I'm looking to complete my first portfolio and hit the next level. And master more Denyuuden decks GETTING CLOSER and then farther with every new release...

Grabbing heroking12!

[sal]

Hmmmmmm I don't look forward to Christmas much because of personal reasons, but I am excited to participate in this Advent Calendar! It'll give me another thing to look forward to during the month. \o/ Colors wise, I guess my goal for the month would be to participate as much as I can around here and in the games.

I'm going to take mission12, thanks!

[psithurism]

First and foremost, I'm just really hoping I survive my classes, finals are a killer! But after that, I hope to be able to pick out some good gifts sof people and spend the holiday in a pleasant fashion. Hopefully without a cat knocking down the christmas tree. I also hope I can do more colors things when I'm not so bogged down, sob.

Taking bored12!

[apprivoiser]

My family doesn't celebrate Christmas (or any major Canadian holidays for that matter SOBS) but I'm looking forward to being home with my family again. ;u; Work-wise, I'm hoping to just... survive for the next twenty days because I'm being given a huge project and I'm not sure if I will survive to be honest AHAHAH this will be horrible. But I will do my best ' ^ ' 9 !

Colors-wise, I'm hoping to master Goldenring this month...! Finish up my ciel mass deck ahue because this is clearly my only purpose in life. I'm also hoping to donate more Aki decks for January (the month, not my senpai for whom collecting cards for is Hard Mode) if only because I clearly need to make my life more difficult /dead

I'm excited to see what happens at Colors for December!! My first year here and all. And I look forward to participating!! Please take care of me well o ^ o

I'll be taking eris12.

[needles]

My dad is supposed to start work in December, after being out of a job for almost six months! I hope everything about it goes well for him. And I hope I pass my Economics final with flying colors, haha, I did pretty bad on the last test...

Colors wise, I hope I can pull off a chain mastery again and complete December Pot of Gold! Haven't done that in a while.

Taking Dedicated12.

[fall]

For Colors, my hope is to finish my Baccano! mass collection up...! I'm so close to being done with it that I can taste it. Aside from that, I'm hoping to get my license in the upcoming month! I have lots of plans for once the new year starts and every last one of them requires being able to drive.

I don't do much for the holidays myself anymore, but I do like seeing all the cute decorations and events that pop up for them! For my choice card, I'll be taking musket12.

[gammacrank]

I'm really looking forward to winter break and not having classes. I'll have a lot of work to do regardless, but once midterm exams are done I can work on things at my own pace for a few weeks without worrying about deadlines, which will be a nice change. Also, we're going to a ton of Christmas parties this month (and hosting a big one of our own), and I'm really excited about all of them. *v* I'm hoping to find a good balance between getting things done and goofing off, and hope to finish a few of the series I'm watching and play a game or two, as well.

For Colors, I'm looking forward to the advent events! Aside from that, I plan to work away at my mass decks this month (and possibly finish the smallest one, though not likely), so business as usual for the most part.

Taking benishigure12~

[oktarose]

I really hope I can get some stupid school things done before Christmas so I don't have to think them anymore. Then I'm waiting to see some of my friends, my family, and my dear cat, who has been living on my parents' place temporarily. Going to give Christmas presents too, and I hope I can get everything done before it's Christmas!

For Colors.. I hope I can get my Ichiban decks collected ^.^ For Advent Calender, I'm waiting what there will be, though I'm not how much I can play ^^' I hope there is more tasks/challenges than discussions posts because I have a quite bad writer's block, and I really, really hate my writing.. So the less writing better for me ^^''

Taking oath12 for this.
