Xmas, life updates, and more
Jan. 5th, 2010 01:43 amOh wow, this entry is overdue XDDD I meant to post this a week ago, but I've been so darn busy having fun that I completely forgot. Christmas was amazing, as was New Year's. Before I get into anything, I want to thank all of you for the wonderful Christmas gifts! YOU GUYS ARE SO SWEET! 8D *explodes* Whether they were IRL gifts or virtual ones, they all made my day special and I loved them.
Beware that this entry might end up being rather image heavy, since I have a lot to share XD But everything goes behind cuts, so don't worry.
Anyway, on Christmas I went to my grandma's house, and it was nice to see her. I'm really happy that we're getting along better than we did when I was a teenager... same with all my aunts and uncles. I got Cindy in the Secret Santa, so I bought her a ton of candles and some wall sconces and biscotti <3 she seemed to like them. Brad got me, and he got me a Hello Kitty ring and some matching earrings, which were so cute! I've been wearing the ring around the house all week, though I keep forgetting to wear the earrings.
I got Sims 3, a camera, and Phantom of the Opera from my parents 8D I was wary about them spending a lot of money on me until my mom finally caved and admitted that they got everything really cheap, and then I was okay XD My sister and got Disgea 1 and 2 along with a bunch of CD's, and we're been addicted to both games all week. We spent HOURS leveling up our team, and now we're ready for the big leagues XD I'll post some Disgea stuff (partially involving some hilarious Ouran references that we found) later. This entry is already long enough as it is.
For New Year's, we stayed in and ordered pizza as well as made some snacks (OUR OWN CHEESE BALL FTW) and sat around watching TV and cracking jokes and watching a bunch of episodes of Medium we had on the DVR. Everyone in my family besides my dad is psychic (my sister can tell when a song is going to be on the radio, my mom is just generally psychic in almost every way possible, and I have dreams), so Medium is like... our favorite family activity XD I loved spending all that time with my family. It was so cozy. I have high hopes for 2010 and I hope it's as wonderful as 2009 was!
On Friday night, Kiona and Natalie spent the night for our Winter Soiree, but since I was too airheaded to plan any activities, we had a tea party and made Kyouya jokes. We decided that the entire Club is convinced that Haruhi is black and they're all racist. This led to an IRL RP in which I was Haruhi and they were racist so they barricaded themselves against the door with pillows and screamed when I came near them. Kiona makes the best Kyouya ever XD it was so funny. Brittany was Tamaki and she made me put on a skanky pink nurse dress "for Club purposes". We also watched Pulse 2 and 3, which were amazing. Pulse 3 is the best of the series, I think. But wait, Pulse 1 was good too. Ahhhhh! Brittany and I also watched Ghost Train, The Eye (the Chinese version), Donnie Darko, Hellraiser Bloodline, Disturbia, and more over her Xmas break. I love horror movies to death 8D We got all the DVD's at a super low closeout sale at FYE, and I also got a $4 Vampire Knight shirt. OMIGAWD I'm in love with Kaname-sama.
Also, on a life update: I was trying to eat spaghetti and my ultra long hair kept getting in it, and I got fed up so I grabbed a pair of scissors and went into the bathroom and cut it all off XD my dad was like "DX" because now he has way longer hair than me and apparently that's emasculating. But Brittany thought it would be fun to take a bunch of pics of it, so here's some:
