(no subject)
I talked to my 18 year old step brother last night. he said he asked for a quilt for christmas. I asked him why, he said because he knew if he asked for something expensive, his mother would buy it for him. he said his mother doesn't have a lot of money. I know this for a fact, and I love that family. then I looked at myself, and what did I ask for? a bass guitar? we're talking $400 here. a quilt.. $40. i didn't get it though, but whatever i'm saving for one.
then i thought, there's something wrong here. There's something wrong with our ideals of Christmas. Maybe i'm just complaining. Christmas is about getting together with loved ones and drinking hot choca around a warm fire. it's about eating a lovely turkey dinner and getting really long phone calls from aunts from Montreal. it's not about how you got your $600 digital camera, you got your $400 iPod, you got your 7 new outfits from the Gap, you got your additions to your ginormous CD collection. laugh it off! i dare you.
I don'tt know about you, but my christmas day has already been made. A boy told me he likes me, and i like him back. Me and my mother haven't fought once this morning, and I talked to my friend that i haven't talked to in months.
Have a good christmas everyone.
