時間過得很快，今天已經是十二月二十日了，學校在這個星期裡以播放錄影帶來代替授課，每組別照常到各自的課室，由老師播放同學們所選擇的電影錄影帶，而且不同的課堂播放不同的電影。雖然可以看到一些不錯的電影，但總覺得有點浪費學習時間。
而今天只需上早上的三堂課，原因是學校為了讓同學們慶祝聖誕節而特別提早放假，而午膳時間更在禮堂裡舉行了聖誕慶祝活動，當中有抽獎和聖誕大合唱。抽獎的奬品是一大罐朱古力豆，可是我並沒有中奬，然後便是今次慶祝活動的壓軸戲—聖誕大合唱，合唱團是由數十位女同學所組成的，是次演出除了一些耳熟能詳的聖誕歌外，還有一首由本校所創作的聖誕歌。跟別的聖誕歌不同﹐這首歌並沒有那種和諧的旋律，卻有一種令人感動而振奮的感覺，是一首獨特的聖誕歌。
中午一時許，當慶祝活動結束後，同學們各自返家，而學校亦會暫時停止辦公。就這樣，我的聖誕假期便隨着放學的鈴聲響起而開始了。
以下是該首聖誕歌的歌詞，各位如有興趣的話，不妨看看。
STOP GIVE A THOUGHT FOR JESUS
By Mr David Farrar, Maryhill High School

As you take an extra chocolate
Or you squeeze in one more cake
As you open yet another gift
Give the crackers one more shake.
As your tummy feels enormous
And you’re forced to sit so still
Stop
Give a thought for Jesus
Christmas and Goodwill

As the stockings bulge with presents
And the tree can’t help but sag
The children start to squabble
And the older ones to brag
As Grandad start to fall asleep
And Grandma’s had her fill
Stop
Give a thought for Jesus
Christmas and Goodwill

So let’s stop all the grabbing
Stop the grasp and greed.
Stop asking for more and more
There’s little else we need.
Let’s start again unselfishly
I’m sure it would be a thrill
And stop
Give a thought for Jesus
Christmas and Goodwill

And then we might stop fighting
Wars we never win
And people might find hope
Where before they were so thin
And we could share love and harmony
It would be the perfect pill
Stop
Give a thought for Jesus
Christmas and Goodwill

Let Jesus be our Saviour
Let him open up our eyes
Let him take our head and lead us
He’s truth that never lies
He’s love and the solution
For ever and until
Stop
Give a thought for Jesus (Christmas and Goodwill)
Stop
Give a thought for Jesus Christmas and Goodwill
