Another year, another Christmas.....
So I finally made my way home for Christmas. Got a little sick on the plane, but I think all was well when I finally landed and got home safely. I landed in Portland around 8:00pm on the 17th and was greeted by my best friends from back home, Carly and Kira. We hugged and they said they had a surprise for me when we got to the car. So I finally asked what it was and they reserved a two bedroom suite at a hotel! It was so awesome! The hotel I've never heard of but was quit nice and we ordered mexican food when we got there, which was cool because I can't say when the last time I had some desent mexi food. (sorry, Taco Bell just doenst cut it:)) It was cool, but once I started feeling sick again, we had to call it an early night. Our plans of getting drunk wasnt meant to be that night.... unfortunatly. We finally decided to head home early that next day so I could recover, see the fam and such.
My mom looks healthy and skinny as ever, my sister greeted me in her snow suit cuz she was playing outside with her friends and I couldnt believe how tall that girl is now! (waaaa! shes not a baby anymore:( She probably comes to about half my height. And my dad, well, he looks the same and is the same in every way.
In a year's time it seems like every one in my family has changed in some way. I mean, the house is really nice, I love the big kitchen the lower den and backyard and such. I miss my old room though...I wish I could have my stuff in my room again, but I guess it's all in storage and would be too much of a hassle to bring out just for two weeks. But it's almost as if my parents have completely forgotten about me at times. It just bothers me when my dad can't even remember my name and calls me Rory or Carol like every day and numerous times a day. I hate that, it drives me batty. It's like damn, I guess it just means that we've really grown apart. He's never done that to me before, and yet It's kind of degrading. It may sound petty, but sometimes I wonder, is it my fault because I'm hardley home or is it that he really just doesn't care about me anymore, or is it just age? I really dont know....but I wish I knew. My dad and I have grown apart in so many ways, I wouldnt be surprised if he decided to cut me off completely.
I'm actually really happy for one of my good friends, Kira. Her and Carly have just recently moved into a house and is living with Carly's boyfriend, Tom. Tom's brother, Mikey has had the hots for Kira for the longest time but finally made it official this Christmas now that Mikey and Kira are officially "together." It was so cute, we were all together doing our gift exchange when we heard the doorbell and there he was, standing there, in front of Kira with a dozen roses!!! She's such a shy girl it was funny to watch her face get all red:) I'm so happy for her now that she has finally found a good guy:)
I've known her for so long it seems as though so many guys have wanted to be with her since she has always turned them down, but I guess she always knew that the right guy would come for her when it happend.
So Santa really did come this year! On Christmas morning he "left his glove" near the fireplace and left Rory a telescope and me a pedicure set...HAHAHHA!! Since when did Santa care about my feet? lol!! He also left a couple bites with the cookies we left him and the carrots were gone! Can you believe that? I knew Santa would come this year!!!!
Got a really cool ipod that I absolutely love for Christmas! I downloaded like 10 songs already and burned some of my cd's already, I love it! Now I have something cool to listen to on the plane back to Providence. I miss home already.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful vacation and is resting plenty before we head to school. That's another thing I have to worry about when I get back is scheduling...blahhhhh. Peace, love and harmony...
Love always,
Rena
