          I think yesterday was the most eventful day of my entire life. Okay, it wasn't, but it was really fun. Like the other 26% of holiday shoppers (according to the San Jose Mercury News) me and my mom and brother went shopping at Valley Fair in search for sales. We actually, originially, went there to get our pictures taken for Christmas, so my mom can send our Christmas photos to family and friends. I wasn't looking foward to it when I did it, but later I didn't really care. The pictures turned out kind of lame, I looked really retarded. I mean, literally, retarded.
          There were so many shoppers roaming the mall for bargains, and I really didn't think that the sales really needed so much attention. I liked it though, being in the mall when it's so crowded, with my mom, oh, and brother. I think if it were just me and my mom, I would have been happier. But instead, my grandma, brother, aunt, cousin, and Alyssa, came with us. That caused some problems. 1) My grandma has problems with her back, so she can't walk very far. 2) My aunt and cousin don't spend money because they're kinda poor. So, shopping wasn't something they came to do. 3) Alyssa started to cry towards the end of our shopping session.
          I spent a lot of money there. About $400 in total? $300 was from my mom, buying me new 3 new pairs of jeans (which I really, really, really like) from the Gap, including pajamas, boxers, and a new gray polo which I still need to wash. I was going to get a scarf, but for some reason I didn't. Oh well. Then, with my money, I got The Curious Incident Of the Dog In The Night Time by Mark Haddon, Elliott Smith and the Big Nothing by Bejamin Nugent (you all should be extremely jealous right now), the iTrip Mini for my iPod Mini (it allows my iPod to play it's music through FM radio), an iSkin for my iPod mini (it's super, super, super ugly and I want to return it, but I threw away the box and they probably wouldn't even accept it), and Earlimart's album, "Treble and Tremble", which I've been wanting to get for the past few months or so. I also bought my mom that Gwen Stefani CD because she wanted it, and she never paid me back. Oh well.
          I realized that my Auntie really only has a few more years to live. It's really sad that I don't really make the most out of the time I have with her--and even sometimes, I can be an asshole to her. I just hope that she will die peacefully, and not some murder or get ran over or get tortured to death or something. That'd be absolutely terrible, and I'd most likely kill whoever kills her, even if it were a homicide. But, really, she's a great woman. She has done so much for my family. And, well, here I am with her, and I don't have much time left for her (yeah, 4 years isn't that long). At least she's healthy--she has diabetes, but she's healthy. She walks to work everyday because she doesn't have a car. She takes the lightrail. She's been doing it for twenty-five years.
          I'll be so depressed when she dies. I won't be able to get out of my house for weeks. Same with my parents. I'll probably commit suicide if my parents died. Especially if they were murdered. But I'd have to kill their murderer first.
          Wow, that was really morbid. Haha.
          So today was okay too. I went with my mom to the beauty salon and I got my hair cut, and she got one too and it took her forever. That's okay though, because I got to read my Elliott Smith biography, listen to my iPod mini, and go to Tower Records to get more ideas of what I want for Christmas. It's so hard to think about what you really want when you're sitting here at the computer. It sounds so easy but it really isn't. At least for me. I also got my iTrip to work, finally, in the car. I'm starting to understand how to use it. Or, well, I understand now.
          Later on me and my dad went to Fry's Electronics to get my stupid CD-RW drive. I actually intended on getting a DVD-RW/CD-RW drive but my dad is so cheap with me and didn't want to. I mean, fuck. I get the grades he's always wanted me to get, and he's so fucking decietful, telling me that he'd buy me "everything I want", and here I am, asking for a $80.00 drive at an electronics store and he gets me this piece of shit $30.00 drive. I'm so materialistic, it's pathetic.
          Well, I'm over it. My hair looks good. It's the first time, ever, that I actually liked my haircut. It looks the same, except not as thick and just a little bit shorter. Also, I need to get back into making .GIFs. I was doing it for like three days and now I just don't feel like it. Probably because the way I make them is so complicated. :|
          People already have their Christmas lights up. We're supposedly decorating and getting our tree tomorrow. I think I'll post pictures. I don't know. Taking pictures has sort of lost it's appeal ever since I realized my camera is a peice of shit.
