Home

Yo yo yo....I havent had the time to write so here I am.

Thursday I had my last three finals which were the performance part of Aural Theory, my jury, and my written theory. All of them went very well. I was freaking out about my Jury because I had no time to breath between my Aural and Jury. I made it work though. :)

When I got back to my apartment, I finished writing my paper for my acting class, packed and talked to people on the computer. I never thought I was very good at multi-tasking but apparently I am because I did all of those things and gave each one a lot of attention. After I moved out of my apartment I went to Debs so we could hang out before the Ugly Sweater party. The ugly sweater party was interesting to say the least. It was a bunch of people that I wouldn't put together, hanging out and watching christmas movies. I was happy when I got there because Steve went even though he wasnt feeling well... I dont think he had fun because he left early. :(

When we left the house we went to Debs and just hung out until I fell asleep on her recliner and woke up at 8:30 to drive home.

The drive home was nice because I had some me time and as I approached my town the snow on the side of the road became more apparent. That night I went to Wal*mart with my mom and her friend and I rode around in an electric scooter and acted a fool.

Today I woke up at like 10 and hung out with my brothers for a little bit until I had to go to work. I hate working at the place I work at so much but its money that I dont have and time that I do. It was a long shift to work...2-10.... but I guess it was nice. The people I worked with during the summer remembered me and made me feel "welcome". I got to see the kid I liked during the summer and I still might have a bit of a crush on him. At night it got so cold and I didnt have a sweater so the managers told me that I could wear his which was nice. lol Now i am sitting on my couch with my dog sleeping on my lap and my brother humming Tenacious D songs. I am exausted and I think I might be getting sick. Not bronchitis/pneumonia sick... like fever chills sick. I will take a bath and see how I feel tomorrow.

One little rant before I go...

I am about to make myself sound the a grinch... but I hate christmas time. I love what it stands for... family getting together and enjoying each others company and being happy to be alive.... BUT.... why cant we do this all the time. Why is it that ONE day out of the year do we buy a whole bunch of shit for each other and show how much we love each other? First off... I dont think that we need to buy each other really expensive and or gaudy things to show love or affection. A card or a hug or something small could fill the shoes of the new Wii Fit or a new snowboard. Along those same lines.... If we are going to get each other gifts I think we should use our knowledge of the person to buy gifts. For example... Little susie makes a christmas list of 6 things that she wants for christmas. This list says that she wants a barbie car, a kitchen set, a new bed, a puppy, roller blades and an easy bake oven. Now... why do her parents need a list to know what their daughter likes. I think we should pay more attention to our loved ones so that we can get something thoughtful. Jill got our group of friends a talking Andy doll... from 40-year-old virgin and I think that it pure genius. She knew what we liked because she spends time with us and knows our personalities. Its an inside joke between the 5 of us and she didnt need a list to make us happy.

I told my mom that I was going to be really really pissed off if she got me anything for christmas. She does enough for me throughout the year and I know she doesnt have the money to buy me stuff so that is my christmas present to her. I think she is still oging to buy me something but I really dont want her to.

OHH!!! this is another thing about christmas that bugs me. Christmas is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year but people get really really bitchy and uptight. If prices arent right or if a store doesnt carry something that a person needs, people get soooooo mad. We should be relaxing with the ones we love .... not running around like chickens with our heads cut off away from our families.... burning holes in our pockets.

Be honest with yourself. Do you remember everything you got last year for christmas and everything that you gave to people? Do you still use everything that you got for christmas last year or did you use it a few times and than it wasnt new anymore so it became boring?

Now think... Do you remember who you spent christmas with last year or anything funny that might have happened?

I hope this entry made you think a little bit.

Peace Love and Good will toward men.... and women
