I really want to party on Christmas this year, so I'm not going to spend Christmas with my family.
Why can't you split the day and spend time with both?
You are right. I'm gonna go out drinking with my friends and plan a Christmas get-together.
You should spend the holidays with family, but there's nothing that says you can't spend it with friends as well. Spending time with family and friends are important.
WTF you don't understand that I'm not planning on seeing my family.
I mean it's really your call, but I bet your family will be disappointed. Could you possibly spend the morning or afternoon with them before partying with your friends? That would probably make your family happy.
