Show LIFE DECEMBER 10, 2012 ROMANCE from, 84 B8 SANTA from 84 She is also anxious to find out whether or not her boyfriend will introduce her to his family. "With it being Christmas and all, I really want to meet his family," Ellsworth said. "I always spend it with my family, so I hope he wants to let me spend it with his." Another student, David Price, said the key to relationships around the holiday season is communication. Price reflects on his relationships that ended last Christmas due to miscommunication. "I thought we were a lot more serious than she did, and that's what messed it up," Price said. According to Price, he wanted him and his girlfriend to buy each other meaningful gifts and spend time with each other's family, but his girlfriend was not on the same page. "I bought her an expensive necklace and she gave me a DVD," Price said. "It's not that I care that she got me an expensive gift, but we were just really off on where our relationship was." Looking back, Price wished he would have asked his girlfriend prior to buying her gift what she thought about their relationship. He thinks this would have cleared up any confusion and prevented the uncomfortable reactions that came when she opened her diamond necklace. 66 Christmas is important for little kids because they don't understand the true meaning of Christmas yet so it gives them something to believe in. TYLER SANDERS Student Alex Cobabe said, "I got this present from Santa Claus that had a price tag on it so I knew the elves didn't make the toy." "My Santa experience was kind of drawn out," said Bethany Johnson. "I mean I had had other kids tell me that he wasn't real, but I never believed them. I remember just thinking my grandma says she saw Santa and I was convinced that she wouldn't lie to me. But slowly I grew out of it." However the experience of the Santa myth concludes, the question still remains: Is the myth justified or does it have flaws? "I think it's a little of both," Cobabe said. "I like the myth but if a kid grows up without it they wouldn't have to be disappointed." "Christmas is important for little kids because they don't understand the true meaning of Christmas yet so it gives them something to believe in," Sanders said. "Besides it's a big deal. And without Santa it wouldn't be as good."
