-The susunod Day-
We were helping Mercedes decorate the choir room for Christmas. It's so great to have her, Santana, and Brittany back in the group. While decorating, we started pag-awit "All I Want For pasko Is You" sa pamamagitan ng Mariah Carey.
-in the hallway-
I was looking for Artie to give him a present. It is pasko after all. As I spotted him putting things in his locker, I saw Rachel giving Finn a list. Most likely a pasko gift list. Typical Berry. I walked up to Artie. "Hey."
He looked up at me. "Hey."
"Merry Christmas." I gave him the gift I was holding behind my back. "I just wanted to give you something as a thank you for helping on the first araw of school."
He took it. "Thanks."
"Open it", I pleaded.
He smiled and opened it. "A def siksikan mga tula album."
"Look at the signature."
He smiled even wider. "Eminem?"
"Yep. My dad's a doctor and he once saved Eminem's life. Eminem told my dad that if he needed anything, give him a call", I said. "A little birdie told me you like def siksikan mga tula and then I got you one. Eminem's signature was an extra gift for you."
"Thank you, really. This means a lot to me. But I didn't get you-"
"Not necessarily. You gave me a smile on your face, one I'm really happy to see."
He smiled again. "I'll repay you somehow." He closed his locker.
I heard Sue call Artie's name from down the hall. I saw she had Kurt and Blaine with her.
"Bye Sol." He wheeled down Sue and the others.
"See ya later." I waited until I couldn't see him anymore before halik my palm and putting it on his locker.
-in Glee Club-
Everyone was admiring the pasko decorations in the room. Everyone except Rory. As we took our seats, Rory sinabi he had an announcement. "This is my first pasko away from my family", he said. "My mom is unable to visit and I feel homesick. So I would like to sing a song." He began pag-awit "Blue Christmas" sa pamamagitan ng Elvis Presley.
"That was really depressing", sinabi Santana once Rory finished singing.
Rachel agreed. "But it was beautiful, Rory."
Tina also agreed. "It reminded me of last Christmas", Tina began. "Sue cut down our pasko tree, Kurt was at another school, Artie's re-walk brok-"
"Guess what, guys", sinabi Mr. Schue walking in, interrupting Tina. Everyone was silent with anxiety. "I just got off the phone with a PBS manager, who wants to recruit us for a pasko special. And Artie? You're directing it."
"Hmm", Artie thought. "I'll think about it."
-in the Auditorium-
I sat sa pamamagitan ng Rory. Rachel walked on stage. "What part does she want now?"
"The main character in the pasko special", sinabi Santana.
"Figures." I turn back towards the stage. Rachel starts pag-awit "River" sa pamamagitan ng .
"And she called my performance depressing", Rory whispered to me.
I laughed quietly.
"That was really depressing", sinabi Artie once Rachel was done performing. "It doesn't fit with my vision of pasko with joyful songs and Rory as Itchy the Elf reciting a happier version of 'Frosty the Snowman'."
Sam stood up. "This isn't what pasko is about. And ifcr you guys can't see that, I want no part in this pasko speak." Sam turned to leave. "C'mon Rory."
Rory was silent for a few seconds. "I should memorize my part, Sam", Rory sinabi finally.
Sam walked out, disappointed.
-in Glee Club-
I sat sa pamamagitan ng Artie. Berry and Blaine got up from their seats and performed "Very Extraordinary Christmas". Once they finished, everyone applauded. Including myself.
"Now that's what's I'm talking about", sinabi Artie, smiling.
Sue entered. "Let's go people, we've got the homeless to feed!"
"About that, we kind of had the opportunity to put on a pasko special for PBS", sinabi Artie.
"The homeless don't have tvs."
"We can't make it to the homeless shelter, Sue."
Sue looked upset. She left the room.
-at the homeless shelter-
Sam took Quinn and I to the homeless shelter with him. There, we were ibingiay gloves and went behind the pagkain table. Then we started putting pagkain on plates and passed them out.
Sue came towards a few minutos after.
"We don't have enough for everyone", sinabi Quinn, passing a plate to a woman.
Just then, the entire glee club entered the room. They were caring containers of various food. Artie was carrying the turkey.
I smiled. "You guys came."
"Yep", sinabi Artie.
"Rory made us realize the true meaning of Christmas", sinabi Rachel. Everyone set the pagkain on the tables.
"Let's get our perform on", sinabi Mercedes.
Quinn, Sam, and I sumali the others in pag-awit "Do They It's Christmas?(Feed The World)" sa pamamagitan ng Band Aid.
-back at McKinley-
I was gathering my books from my last class. As I was walk out, Artie stopped me at the doorway. "Hey."
"Hey", he said. "I got you something."
I notice the gift in his lap and picked it up. "Thanks."
"Open it."
I do. It's a amethyst ring. "I pag-ibig it", I said, putting it on.
"Well, bye." He turned to leave.
"Artie, wait."
He turned to me.
"Uhh..." I halik his cheek. "Thanks again." I rush past him, practically sprinting down the hall towards the exit of the school.

Bed! Bed! I couldn't go to bed.
My head's too light to try to set it down.
Sleep! Sleep! I couldn't sleep tonight.
Not for all the jewels in the crown.
I could have danced all night,
I could have danced all night,
And still have begged for more.
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things I've never done before.
I'll never know what made it so exciting.
Why all at once my puso took flight. I only know when he
Began to dance with me I could have danced,
danced, danced all night!
My head's too light to try to set it down.
Sleep! Sleep! I couldn't sleep tonight.
Not for all the jewels in the crown.
I could have danced all night,

And still have begged for more.

And done a thousand things I've never done before.
I'll never know what made it so exciting.
Why all at once my puso took flight. I only know when he
Began to dance with me I could have danced,
danced, danced all night!
Where it began
I can't begin to knowin
But then I know it's growin strong
Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Whod have believed you'd come along
Hands, touchin hands
Reachin out
Touchin me
Touchin you
Sweet caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
But now I
Look at the night
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurtin runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when I'm with you
Warm, touchin warm
Reachin out
Touchin me
Touchin you
Sweet caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
Oh, no, no
Sweet caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
I believed they never could
Sweet caroline
I can't begin to knowin
But then I know it's growin strong
Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Whod have believed you'd come along
Hands, touchin hands
Reachin out
Touchin me
Touchin you
Sweet caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
But now I
Look at the night
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurtin runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when I'm with you
Warm, touchin warm
Reachin out
Touchin me
Touchin you
Sweet caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
Oh, no, no
Sweet caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
I believed they never could
Sweet caroline

Just a small town girl
livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smoky room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the nights
Streetlights, people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the nights
Working hard to get my fill,
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one madami time
Some will win, some will lose
Some are born to sing the blues
And now the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Don't stop believin
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people
(repeat)
Don't stop!

I also loved the fantastic performances of ‘Vogue,’ ‘Express Yourself’ and all the messages about the boys being respectful to girls.
The entire cast was amazing. They’re all so talented. I especially loved Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) and Kurt Hummel’s (Chris Colfer) characters. [Show creator] Ryan Murphy did a great job bringing all these elements together.
[Daughter] Lola loved the ipakita too. I wish I went to a high school like that…If only.”
