Oh. I forgot.
Merry Christmas. Happy Chanukah. Eh. Happy Kwanzaa. And Happy Nothing, to everyone else.
I forgot to wish you all Happy Holidays. Sorry, guys.
Christmas was awesome. Christmas Eve, I watched Bend It Like Beckham. Or tried to. My grandma's godson's kid (figure it out) was wailing, and his mother wouldn't go pick him up. Uhm. Sorry, but the kid won't stop crying magically. You know. Eh. But yea. Christmas day, we had Christmas dinner. Meaning I waited until 8pm to open my presents. Come on. I'm 15, I want to open them right away. Ehe. I'm shallow. But yea. My presents kicked some major ass.
I got great stuff.
my auntie I got this awesome nail polish kit. It's this leather box, and it had 20 bottles of nailpolish in it. There's a lock on it too. I got a Parasuco top. I'm not a big fan of the brand, but the top is nice. It's sort of Camo, but not really. The colours, but not the actual squiggle thing. Yea. And there's this old design type thing. It looks a bit like the English Premier League Cup. =D I also got $50 from her. Will go to Nickelback tickets.
brother / his girlfriend / my mum they collaborated. Or something like that. I quite forget how the presents between them worked. I got this book, about disgusting records, murder, stuff like that. I got the Lord of the Rings books, which I planned on reading, but judging on the first 50 pages, I liked the movies better. Then again, I didn't pay attention to the first movie, so this is probably in it. Yea. Moving on. I got this awesome DKNY sweater, it's red, has this vintage look to it. Nice. I got a Swatch. You know their new models? The ones that flip. I wanted the one with the Swiss cross, but this one is Canada-like, so I like it. Lol. It really is nice. And. Get this. I got the best present ever. I got the last tickets available to the USA vs Canada, World Cup of Hockey game in Montreal. There was a box, and in the box was an envelope, and in it's card, there was the ticket held by a paperclip, and a note from my brother. He's like 'These were the last tickets they had. The seats are horrible, but I have a surprise after the game for you.' And I'm freaking out. Because, hello. The Stars aren't making the playoffs, and chances are, I'll be barfing on Mike Modano's shoes, come August 31st. It's not attractive, but still. I probably won't barf either, but I'll faint, or say something incredibly stupid. Maybe profess my love, propose. Something humiliating, no doubt. But that's completely awesome. It's one of those 'I really want to do it, but I'm so nervous I'll look like a complete prat that I don't want to do it.' Yea.
Presents were quite good this year.
I also got a $10 gift certificate for Chapters. I don't mean to be mean, and ungrateful, but $10? Gift certificates for $10 shouldn't be sold. It looks really bad, I think. Especially when it's that, and a lollipop. I have to add $15 for the calendar that I want, anyway. Grr.
Yep.
I'm done. =D
More presents on the way, though. There are some people that I haven't seen. Friends, and whatnot.
