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:




IT FEELS SO GOOD TO HAVE SHORT HAIR. HOW DID I HANDLE IT BEING LONG FOR 15 YEARS!?!?!?!?!
There are a ton more (like 70) of me and of her and of us together, but these few are the only ones that uploaded correctly onto my computer /: I'll try again later so you can see the epic cuteness that is Brittany! She's so adorable! ^^ We try to pass off as twins all the time, but now that I cut my hair we can't anymore ;_; We haven't had anyone say "Are you two twins?" at all since I cut it *laments slightly but loves haircut*
Anyway, that's all that's new at the moment!
To-do list:
♥ finish sewing and send
stefanie_k's present
♥ finish drawing and send
shiningxsky's present

lovinjerryt's present

Date: 2010-01-05 02:18 pm (UTC)I cut my hair shorter too... almost a month ago now (I didn't think it could get any shorter). One of my cousins said I look like Nana O. (look at my icon, and that's pretty much me... *facepalm*) I couldn't disagree with her, because it so true, it's almost scary!
You're very welcome. I was wondering if you got it... because this time around I didn't get tracking with it, like I usually do.
And... You got Sims 3?! Welcome to the club of addiction! It's too addicting (then again, when are Sims games not?)... I had t hide my game so I could study properly last semester.
You like horror movies too? You're my new favorite person in the world. I haven't met anyone yet with that much love for them in a looooong time! I'm an adrenaline junkie, so I love getting the bejeezus scared out of me.
One more thing (this is turning into an epic comment), I scanned in a new TamaHaru pic in my last journal entry. OMFG Tamaki looks sexy.

Date: 2010-01-05 08:11 pm (UTC)Phantom of the Opera is such a great film. :) My dad recently bought it for me and I was so happy. :DD
baby, I'm scared that I got you something that you already have. D:
I got you Lady GaGa's new CD, The Fame Monster.no subject
Date: 2010-01-05 08:37 pm (UTC)I got it about a week ago but I was too lazy to actually post about it before. I should be able to get yours out within the week... my sewing machine is giving me hell at the moment.
Sims 3 is too addicting DX whenever I try to make a family, my computer crashes, and so I haven't actually gotten to do much yet *weeps* But wow, having to hide the game is a sure sign of addiction, I'd say XD
I love horror movies 8D they're so much fun. I'm an adrenaline junkie, too. Nothing beats that feeling of jumping in your seat with fear X3 I wish we could watch a horror movie together.

Date: 2010-01-05 08:38 pm (UTC)How short did you cut yours? *overly curious lol*
Long hair is such a pain... I don't know how I could stand it. I hated it for the last couple of years I had it XD
no subject
Date: 2010-01-05 08:42 pm (UTC)I freakin' love Phantom of the Opera! <3 <3 <3 It's so amazing! We're PotO twins since we both have it. Lol weeee. My sister and I have every line memorized, so anyone watching it with us is sure to be annoyed.
Don't worry, babeh! *pats* My sister has The Fame Monster, but I don't.
Holy crap, I need to go and buy you another present O: I got you a 99 cent thing and Zero, which does not bode well enough in my book *runs to store*

Date: 2010-01-05 09:03 pm (UTC)Well, okay. But omg, I knew I should have gotten you something else. :( DO NOT BUY ME ANYTHING ELSE. I WILL FEEL LIKE A DOUCHEBAG. |D

Date: 2010-01-06 05:39 am (UTC)AWWW~ I HOPE YOUR COMPUTER STOPS DOING THAT. I made a Host Club family in my game, and they all lived together until the twins decided they wanted to move out. >> Yeah, so Tamaki & Haruhi got married and as of now, they have a kid. I haven't gotten past that yet though.
I love going to haunted houses. Best feeling ever, but I still hold hands with whomever I'm with! I wish we could watch one too! It would be fun. XD
Ah, and here is the Vampire Knight scan. ;P

Date: 2010-01-06 06:18 am (UTC)The back is about an inch from the base of my skull. The front is about to my chin. And there are two sections on both sides in the front that are bleached blond :D

Date: 2010-01-06 07:32 am (UTC)ORLY? XD those damn twins, always complicating things.
So what did you name the TamaHaru baby? *nerdy as hell*
Haunted houses are so fun! 8D I always end up being the one who's completely unfazed until we get out and then in hindsight I'll be like "that was the scariest thing ever uwaaaaah!" and freak out for the next ten minutes XD
Thanks for the scan, m'dear! <3

Date: 2010-01-06 04:21 pm (UTC)His name is Akihiko. It means "Little Prince" or something like that. Yes, it's a boy, and they are currently trying to potty train him. LOL. Haruhi is a politician (idek why lol) and Tamaki is a musician. I think I'll make them have another kid soon. LOL XD
