I'm finally done with finals. Passed everything. I don't have official grades, but I did pretty damn well considering how fucked up our program is.
I'm going to Bern's house tomorrow for Christmas...and I really gotta say how I hate that people have to open up their presents in front of everyone. I remember when I was young and went to birthday parties at home people would always ask the birthday person not to open all the gifts in front of everyone, cuz it's just....kind of embarassing? I hate that crap...and all his relatives are gonna be there and it's gonna be so damn awkward, not to mention I've never celebrated Christmas in my life...so perhaps that's just the tradition? Bleh. I'm gonna feel weird and uncomfortable. I'm not getting his family anything, I just bought a nice bottle of wine, because what the hell am I supposed to get his parents? And then there's his sisters, and her kid, etc...I'm not buying gifts for everyone. Bern told me not to even get anything at all, but I'm not gonna come totally empty handed. Earlier today he decides to tell me that his parents got something for me...so now I feel bad cuz I'm not really coming with an actual present...just wine. Dammit, I hate things like this, ugh. These are the times that I get really anti-social and just don't wanna go anywhere, but he really, REALLY wanted me to come, and I know if I don't go everyone in his family will ask me how come I didn't show up, and it's just easier to go.....
