Sinterklaas is the basis for the North American figure of Santa Claus. It is often claimed that during the American War of Independence the inhabitants of New York City, a former Dutch colonial town (New Amsterdam) which had been swapped by the Dutch for other territories, reinvented their Sinterklaas tradition, as Saint Nicholas was a symbol of the city's non-English past. The name Santa Claus supposedly derived from older Dutch Sinte Klaas.... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (SC88) http://beyond-beautiful.org/sreply/425494 Wed, 02 Dec 2009 10:29:03 PST http://beyond-beautiful.org/reply/425309/t/At-what-age-did-you-stop-believing-in-Santa-Clause-.html#reply-425309 ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (tah71) http://beyond-beautiful.org/sreply/425309 Tue, 01 Dec 2009 20:33:16 PST http://beyond-beautiful.org/reply/425131/t/At-what-age-did-you-stop-believing-in-Santa-Clause-.html#reply-425131

Poor lil girl.

I remember I used to write letters asking for my gift and putting inside my socks. I remember I refused to sleep cuz I wanted to see him in person, but I never got a chance, cuz he used to come in when I was asleep ¬¬ (why, huh?) And also, I never won what I used to ask for! Like a flying bike.
Every Xmas the same thing happened, so I talked to my cousin that I thought Santa didn't exist.

She was like: Noo, he does exist! And I was like: Yeah, right. -_-'

Oh, I guess I was 7 yeard old.

I don't think I ever believed on Santa only cuz I remember at a young age that the gifts under the Christmas tree had those to and from tags and it said "from Santa" but it had my mom's handwriting. I knew it a very young age...lol
