Ok, I'll update again. Holidays were fine. Thanks everyone for asking. I got a camera lens (shocker) and some other stuff. A necklace that I had admired at the mall surprisingly made its way under my tree. It's not like a diamond or anything, it's silver, but I like it. I'll show you all at school. Remind me. I got a lot of warm clothes too for when I go to Pitt. Will gave me a fiber optic dolphin lamp. It's cool. That's about it. All in all, christmas was rather disappointing. Don't get me wrong. It's got nothing to do at all with the presents. I didn't want anything that I didn't get; mostly because I wanted about 2 things. Well, I didn't get a car, but you know... Can't set my hopes too high. But this year I have just totally lost my enthusiasm for Christmas in general. I'm just like ehh, it was here, now it's over. We didn't decorate the house at all, not even putting ornaments on the tree, only lights. I just don't know what's wrong with me, I love Christmas. But I'm thinking that maybe it's because I have so much to look forward to right now that are better than christmas. I'm looking forward more to going to PA than I normally am for Christmas, and before last week I was looking forward to break more than I normally am for Christmas. So maybe it's not that I've lost my enthusiasm for Christmas, but it is diminished by other things going on? Dunno. I've just been pondering it. I've been doing everything I can to get myself in the Christmas spirit. Listening to Christmas music and stuff. Maybe it's because there weren't gifts to look forward to since the only thing I really wanted I went out and bought for myself. But it's not just the gifts. It's always just Christmas in general. Just seems to not be there. But I'm sure that it will be tomorrow. Tomorrow will be great. My family up there has a real tree. And a fireplace. And..snow. Hopefully. I'll see snow while I'm there I'm sure, because if all else fails we'll drive 45 minutes to the nearest ski resort. Plus, at Wildwood Highlands they create their own snow if there isn't any real snow because they run snow tubing. Wildwood Highlands, by the way, is Pittsburgh's answer to Boomers. But there's a big hill outside where you can go snow tubing in the winter. Good stuff. So perhaps that's it. Maybe the lack of "Real Christmas" as far as I see it for the past 11 years has drained my enthusiasm for it. That's what I'm going to tell myself. Aside from that, Christmas was pretty enjoyable. Granparents came for dinner. Yep. As promised, I'll give you a picture from the dogs and their matching Christmas tee-shirts, and then I believe I will bid you farewell until I return from Pittsburgh. I may be able to write a woohu entry while I'm up there, but their computer is currently down. I will have my cell phone, don't hesitate to call. I have no roaming charges. See you on the flip side! |
