I've Lost All that I Wanted to Lose

Greetings. I don't really know why, but I'm feeling sort of..tired today. Not my usual slightly hyper self. Hm. This typically happens the day after a sleepover, which we happen to have had last night. So there you go.

Anyway, 2009 has held...nothing to speak of so far. Just normal lazy days which are quite enjoyable for a majority of reasons. First, being lazy - that's just a wonderful thing in itself. Secondly - no homework, which basically results in....doing whatever I want. *grin* So I've been reading, watching TV, getting on the computer, eating...etc. Fun fun.

So right now a friend is over - she and my sister are making chocolate chip cookies. I just don't feel like it....so at the moment I snuck away to write a blog. It's been a lovely break, and I will absolutely hate to see it end Monday when I go back to school. Might as well get the most out of it while I can.

And thanks everyone who posted in the chat box, it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. :]
Peace.

Vacations and Visitations

Aloha. Recently I returned from a visit to Maryland with my family. We went to visit my other family - aunts, uncles, cousins, and such, along with other shenanigans. It was good times.

I got a new shirt, hat, and pair of jeans. :] Not to mention that I tend to enjoy car trips until I get carsick. I like to listen to music and read and just veg out. (By the way, in case you are wondering - carsickness consists of a headache and slightly upset stomach for me. No vomiting was involved, kthnx.)

Basically not much has happened around here since Christmas aside from this trip. I've gotten some new clothes due to the wonderful after-Christmas sales and such. And I've been reading books I got for Christmas or bought with my Borders gift cards. Good good.

As for another announcement, the blog now has a chat box!! yay! So um....leave a post if you stop by (basically talking to Katie, Katie, and some other miscelaneous VD people).

After-Christmas Recovery

Christmas was good. Good good. I got my Twilight hardcover box set. :] And lots of other things that I don't feel like getting into at the moment. The gist of it is Twilight and a bunch of winter riding stuff which I am very thankful for.

Also, I have another week off school, as I don't go back until January 5th. This is very pleasing news. Yesterday we went shopping. The PacSun at our mall is going out of business. This news upsets me greatly, as it is like, my favorite store. Maybe I'll get over it, maybe I won't. But for now it's okay, because they are currently having a massive sale, and I got some dirt cheap shirts, a nice pair of skinnies, and dirt cheap bermuda shorts. So I'll mourn later, like when they actually go out of business. I never got much there as it is expensive, but still. Upsets me muchly, that's all I can say.

Aside from all the innate happiness of Christmastime, we are going to Maryland tomorrow to visit my aunt and uncle and cousins. I don't really want to go. It's not that I don't like visiting my family, because I do, but...let's just say, the timing isn't great. I suppose I'll have to suck it up, we're going and we'll be back Tuesday. As if I have a choice anyway....*cough*. Maybe we'll do more shopping. That would be fantastic.

That's basically it for right now. Also, a new layout is coming soon, though maybe not until new years. I suppose I could change the banner so it's more current. But then again, maybe I'll be lazy. Also, new profile pic.

Just an update. Shalom.

Finally Free, Finally Strong

SSNOOOWWWWW DAAYYYYY!!!! =D

So. We have tons of snow. My sister woke me up and was like 'you have to get in the shower!' and so I scurried and washed my hair over the side of the tub, only to be told 5 minutes later that school was cancelled. So I went back to bed (with wet hair, even) and slept another 4 hours. XD

When I got up I made dippy eggs which, the first time, filled my kitchen with smoke.....again. -.- It worked after that though.

I also wrapped gifts today. And we made chocolate chip cookies. =] The dough for the sugar cookies is in the fridge right now, so we'll have those to make yet too. With icing and sprinkles, mind you. Yeahhhh. So. It's been a nice relaxing day so far. I took some pictures of the snow and all.

That's basically it. Last night before dance we went to wally world (a.k.a. Wal Mart) and I actually got most of my Christmas shopping done. Sooo I only have a couple more things to get. =]

Feliz Navidad!!

I Want To Be Evergreen.

Christmas layouttt. I like it a lot. =] Oh and I made the banner at the top.

Anyway. Today we're getting our tree. I'm excited. x] And tonight is the youth group 'Guys in Disguise' thing at the mall. People dress up and you have to find them and get their signature. It's big fun. Win.

Last night was formal that I didn't go to, so me and some friends went to the mall to do Christmas shopping. We were in Deb for like 45 mins trying on dresses. =p it was fun. But we didn't have much luck with the Christmas shopping part. I got like, one thing. XD But oh well. it was fun.

Bad news. I can't ride for 3 weeks. =[ Not for the next two weeks because one of the horses got another horse sick, my instructor has to keep them in isolation for a while until the epidemic is over with. And the week after that is 'Christmas break'. So yeah. I'm going to be so out of shape by then. XD

But other than that things are fine. It's colddd. Haha my room is all decorated. I have lights up and everything. XD I go all out with decorations. Christmas is my favorite holiday.

So just a brief update. I'll try to be more consistent. =p
