Christmas songs have already started to play at work since the beginning of November and it's not even December yet! At least wait till the start of December!! D: Right now, I'm just singing along but soon, I'll be so sick of them.

I noticed one in the mall the other day, and I nearly had a fit.
It didn't help that it was a Jessica Simpson Christmas song. They probably played more than that too, but she was just too obnoxious to ignore. |

They started playing them a few weeks ago around here. Nothing like walking around a store that has spooky Halloween displays out and Christmas music playing.
It feels like stores are putting out the displays sooner than they used to. Pretty much the day after Halloween. Poor Thanksgiving, it gets skipped over. Saturday I was at the mall and Santa was there! What the hell? It was weird. |

Thanksgiving in Canada was the third week of October so after Halloween, it was straight to Christmas songs and displays and candles and holiday lights and Christmas trees and dancing snowmen and stuff. The huge Christmas trees and display at the mall where I work are already up. There's a huge chair for Santa to sit in but thankfully, he's not there yet.

The art room is right next to the choir room at school, so during class we can hear them rehersing for the Christmas performance. I hate it.

I don't think around my area there are Christmas music playing, just Christmas decorations in stores and in some houses.

I wouldn't like to work in a place that plays the same Christmas songs over and over. Sometimes I get annoyed just going into those stores, can't imagine being there all day. It was crazy when I was at the mall, I was like "Hey look they have a set-up for Santa already" and when we walked around the side he was standing there. It just seems too early for Christmas stuff to already be out. |

 Decoration flags are popping up in parking lots, Kohls has Christmas trees up, and Christmas music is on at the stores. Make it stop! Wait a month!

The huge Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center has scaffolding all around it; I passed by it today. It's weird seeing it without lights yet.
I love Christmas decorations in New York City. |

The mall nearby already has the large tree up. Talk about an early Christmas around here.

Yea, I guess it's also to get people into early Christmas shopping because of people going across the border for cheaper things.

Ah yes they started playing Christmas music in the mall I work in. We usually fast forward the dvd they give us at gamestop to the good songs and play the 30 second clips of them.
Oh yea and of course the store in front of gamestop is this horrible clothing store that plays horrible Christmas music so we hear that as well >_> |

Christmas songs always make me happy. I'm even starting to look for some caroling songs so I can caroling when school starts.
 All I want for Christmas is yo0o00o0ou.
