As much as I love having people visit, I hate seeing them leave. My grandmother's leaving today at 5 in the morning to catch a flight back to New York. I love my grandma so much and I'm gonna miss her when she goes back. Talking to her on the phone just isn't the same as having her here. I hate it! I hate it! I hate it ( Read more... )

I just wanted to post this sincere apology before I go to bed. I was reading over my previous entry and I can't believe how bratty and conceited I sounded. There was no reason for me to act like that, and I am very sorry if I offended or upset anyone. I shouldn't have spent so much time talking about the gifts I received and more time talking about ( Read more... )

My grandmother's coming down from New York tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it. The last time I got to see her was over the summer break. My brother, my dad, and I went up to New York to keep her company on her trip to Maine. Y'see, its tradition for my grandmother and my grandfather to go to Maine every year for their anniversary. They go to the ( Read more... )

I used to be able to pick out the best present for everybody! (Of course, I think we should also take into consideration that I also used to have a job and an ( Read more... )

Is it really Christmas? Seriously, it doesn't feel like Christmas is only next week. For those of you who celebrate Christmas, you might agree with me. Maybe the reason for my Ebenezer Scrooge attitude is because the weather isn't as cold as it usually is this time of year. (I'm wearing a T-shirt and jeans, for goodness' sakes!) Or it could be that ( Read more... )

Y'know how you sit down to watch your favorite childhood classics during the Christmas season, and suddenly you realize just how lame they really were? Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was such a disappointment. It wasn't nearly as cool as it was when I was younger. *sigh* Maybe I expected too much ( Read more... )

I did it! I did it! I did it! I drove all the way to Travis' house and I only got turned around once. I was so proud of myself. This is such a big step for me! YAY ( Read more... )
