I'm lonely. This is the part I hate most about Christmas: everybody leaves to go see their families and I am here alone. At least in years past the international students were all around me but since I'm off-campus this year, I'm really feeling the loneliness. Wal-Mart closed (the one day of the year it's closed) and of course all the "normal" businesses are closed except a Chinese restaurant. My cousin Emily was supposed to visit me, but she couldn't come because my uncle is dying of kidney cancer in the hospital.
I've cleaned my house, every single room, balanced my checkbook, changed 50% of the water in my 35gal tank, fed the birds, snake, rats, etc. There's just nothing else left to do and I'm BORED and LONELY...
