Christmas

The majority of 2010 has been pretty sucky, but Christmas for than made up for it with its epic win. I got to see a lot of my family and got a lot of amazing gifts, even though none of them were on the list. Right now I'm on my new laptop at my dad's house, watching The John Cena Experience with Brandon while Daddy sleeps on the couch with Ender on his stomach.
I got a ton of lamps for Christmas this year. Some of them will endanger me psychologically at night -Spartacus! Get OFF the laptop!- but I'll be using them, especially when I have company over. Socrates and Plato (my mind hamsters) have physically manifested in the form of Zhu Zhu pets. They'll probably battle it out with Desiree's whenever we're out of the house. I got three calenders, beautiful jewelry, and tons of wolfy stuff (earrings, charm bracelet, figurines, etc.). Very good haul, in my opinion.
I'm excited about being on vacation for a while. I'll probably get a lot of writing done and now that I have the laptop, I can keep up with typing the stories out too. It's nice to get away every once in a while to clear my head and de-stress a bit.
Well, going to watch more Criminal Minds now. I hope everyone had a good holiday as well!

Lately

I've been on a major writing streak this past week. I'm very close to finishing a season of one of my series, I'm starting a few others, and I've been working on a few songs. Once I get a day to myself, I'm going to sit down and just write until I get several things finished. I'm very excited with how my projects are going.
Today one of my cousins is getting married and I'm currently getting my hair done for the wedding. I'm excited to go and be with this side of my family again' I haven't seen most of them since the family reunion last month.
I've been making a lot of new friends lately, almost all of them being very awesome, so I'm happy about that. I've been opening myself up to new experiences and it's been nothing but a blessing so far. But just because I'm hanging out with more people doesn't mean I'm forgetting the friends that have been with me from the start. I can't wait to see Kat for Thanksgiving, Krissy whenever she gets the chance to visit again, and Devin when he graduates. I'm keeping the friends that turned into family in mind and I hope I can do something special for all of them soon.
