Christmas Eve!!

Dec 24, 2006 10:02

Well, I've pretty much had a hiatus on both here and Xanga, and yesterday, I wrote a long entry on Xanga that's more school/friend oriented, so for here I'll probably do the same. :)

So, today is Christmas Eve, and I can't believe it! I mean, I live in Massachusetts, and New England is infamous for it's crazy weather (98 degrees + humidity in the summer, -1 degrees at the bus stop in the winter), but it's like 50 degrees out! Dumb global warming. We got 1 little flurry of snow, when I was in my biology class. x_x SO I MISSED IT. HARRUMPH.

I bought a ton of presents for my friends and family, consisting of lotions, candy, gift cards, calendars, and more. I'm kinda getting broke now xD. I got some nice presents from my friends, though- a book, ducky soap on a rope, a shirt, lotions/body stuff, and some cool tights. Plus candy. ^_^

Is anyone here familiar with Taiko drumming? It's Japanese drumming, when people use these fat sticks (Bachi) and scream, and the drum sort of sounds like a timpani? (And did I just lose half of you there? I'm a percussionist xD) We actually got to perform on taiko drums (I take a class) for the whole school on Friday! It went really well, I thought, although my hands got tons of blisters. The audience loved it, although some of my friends were teasing me later, because I messed up a bit XD. Oh well. It was really fun.

As of now, I'm officially on winter break. ^_^ What a relief.

Oh, and I REAALLLY want to do a voice post, although I have no microphone. Eh, maybe I could borrow one from a friend or something.

Happy belated Chanukah! My mom's Catholic and my dad's Jewish, so we celebrate both X-mas and Chanukah ^_^ And merry Christmas, and happy Kwanzaa!

Enjoy your vacation!
