man i got so much to remember... where do i start?

december 25th:
it's so hard to remember what happened on what day. on christmas, we went to the movies. who is we? my dad, my brother, my aunt and her two daughters, and my other cousin and his cousin. we saw cheaper by the dozen. that was so cute!! i loved it. we bought so much movie food, it wasnt even funny. we were like our own little version of cheaper by the dozen. we spent like $80! yeah. but it was good.

"i dont know your family!"
"YOU DO NOW!!!"

while we were doing that, my mom was preparing prime rib for our big family xmas dinner. when she came to pick us up, she was like "ok hurry up cuz i told grandpa not to touch my prime rib!". and of course, we get back home... and he definitely did something to it. we didn't know what, but we smelled some different spices in there than usual. heh. funny. then we headed over to one of my aunts house to eat our xmas dinner. all of my moms sisters (4), their families, and one of her brothers came with his family too. it was great. i love doing that big family dinner thing. interesting things went on. my mom told my aunts that "christina had a boyfriend... his name is altan." (which of course he isnt) then my aunts were like "OOOO... ALTAN!". then my mom told them about him. hah. funny stuff. it was a yummy yummy dinner. then after cleaning up, it was time for presents! i feel like my xmas has lasted forever because i keep getting more as the days go by. what did i have at that point? i hope i remember it all...

>>from school friends<<
STILL. <3 you danielle.
something corporate cd (lizzy!)
teddy bear (sweetest thing, bryan.)
cute manga and disney princesses calendar (<3 ari <3)

heart bracelet + pink and black striped halter top (valerie knows.)
>>from family<<

so then we sat around, ate some dessert and had some good quality family time. then we went home.

december 26th
*thinking*
so the day after christmas. my mom and my aunts went madd shopping. of course. during the day, we went to the mall and i went ice skating with my cousins. i hadn't ice skated in so long, but after awhile, it was ok. they played some nice music. "all i have" came on and i wanted danielle with me! so after that, i didnt get to shop much. oh well. then we all went back to my uncle's house. there, we waited. my youngest aunt tu, my mom, and i then took a little trip to the saks 5th outlet. we chose some things for my mom to buy for us the next day, when 6 am - 10 am they would have additional sales. so after that, we went back to my uncles house. we grew incredibly hungry. we were just waiting for my other aunt to call us for dinner. my other aunt had some visitors, her old best friend from georgia. we met my aunts best friend like two years ago in atlanta. that was when we first met em. they have two kids, same age as me and my brother. so before dinner, my mom was telling my aunts how the son was "pretty cute" and was a "womanizer". then my aunts were like looking at me. it was funny. so we eventually went to dinner to meet my other aunt and her best friend. after greetings, the son of my aunts best friend sits next to me. it was soooo funny, cuz my aunt tu was like looking at me, smiling, and winking. haha. but i lost my seat and ended up sitting next to his sister. i talked mostly with them. they were funny. their names were stephanie and matthew. matthew was irritatingly charming. i'll never forget him looking at me and going "wanna come over later and play?" then doing his dorky smile and eyebrow raise. cute dork. later on for dessert, we ate beignets at a little french bakery. the car ride there was like the funnest car ride EVER. my mom and my aunt tu were rocking out to hey ya and then 80s music. it was GREAT. oh and we followed the wrong car. lol. at the place, matthew sat next to me then too. it was kinda odd. he's so outgoing. but i liked him. all throughout the night, my aunts tu and tiffany were like "christiiiiina.... remember altan!". lol

december 27th:
so i woke up and my mom had already gotten done shopping and getting her hair done. she must have been in a truly good mood. she got me my pink chandelier earrings from saks and ... she handed me this bag. i was like ooooook. and she's like open it! and i looked in the bag. and guess what this woman bought me!! no just guess. well i'll tell you. she got me this rectangular pink louis vuitton purse. i was like OMG and i freaked out. she wouldnt tell me how much she got it for though. i doubt it real, but still! it's really close to being real.

now from then on, the day was kinda crappy cuz everything went wrong. we went to eat at chilis and they made us wait for an hour because our party was so big. that was a lesson learned. then after that, we met up with my aunt and her best friend again. the kids and i (along with matthew) went to go bowling. well the bowling waiting list was two hours long. so we went to laserzone. that was quite fun. but it only lasted for like 45 minutes. at one point, matthew was holding me hostage in a corner and using me as a human shield. yes, fun. THEN we went to eat ice cream to kill time. then we went to the park for 10 minutes. but ya know, as soon as i get accustomed to having matthew around, he has to leave. so i took his phone and put my number in it without him knowing. doubt he'll ever call me. doubt we'll ever see each other again. after his family left, i was just missing his annoying eagerness to get to know me. sigh. then we went to this place that had games, movies, bowling, a skate park, and all this stuff. well it was really confusing. bowling had a waiting list, so i left and went to the movies by myself. i couldnt go to the one my mom and aunt tu were already in so i had to go see mona lisa smile all by myself. it was quite lonely. in the twenty before the movie, they played that hootie and the blowfish song "goodbye girl" and i felt... so alone. but the movie was good, i liked it. it was really the perfect chick flick for me. but then when i got out.... i found out my family was pissed at me for going off alone and not telling them what i was seeing and when i'd be out. but they got over it. apparently, my mom was really pissed, but she was just silent when i got in the car. we went to eat sushi where i once again, felt alone. i mean, i was with my family, but the place was such a date place. it was candlelit and played love songs. they played india arie's "ready for love" which is like one of my major songs recently... and i was just like ... sigh.

december 28th:
i got home... sigh. i opened more gifts! yeah i love christmas. i think there's still more to come because i haven't gotten the #1 thing on my list, my electric guitar. here's more stuff i got:

another pair of chandelier earrings
shirt and jeans
pink hat (sounds lame, but it makes me think of like... me being a solo spino)
khaki guess pants
disney princesses cd
precious memories calendar
and my mom bought me the STILL lotion thinking that danielle only bought me the spray, but she's gonna go return it now.

yeah... i think that's all i have to say now.
i hope i get to see luan soon.
