Every year I've looked forward to Christmas. And every year, it's been a let down. It's always the same thing, my Aunt Karla and Uncle Murray, their 2 children Chase and Chelsey, my Grandma, my Mom, my Aunt Anita and Uncle Aaron and my brother Dave and whoever he's with at the time. I always love hanging out with my brother, especially at these "family gatherings." Their always so boring and my cousins are always following me, begging me to play with them. But it seems like for the past few years, Dave's decided our family gatherings suck, and has decided to spend Christmas elsewhere, leaving me behind in boresville. So if any of you are wondering why I absolutely dispise Christmas, that's your answer.
For me, Christmas should be full of the sweet aroma of baked goods, the ground should be covered in soft, fluffy snow and the tree should be big and beautiful, surrounded by assortments of gifts. Well this is sunny Southern California, and there is no snow. The aroma of baked goods is nothing close to how I pictured it(my mom and sister-in-law Nico, cooking around shifts of taking care of a fussy baby, burning things on the way) and the trees always been kind of, bland. Plus my moms got this thing for country Christmas music that drives me to the brink of insanity.
Nico says Christmas here is nothing like it should be, and I totally agree. So, if mom lets me, next year there taking me to New York, for my perfect, beautiful white Christmas. Finally, someone who wants to let me out of this damn hellhole called Yorba Linda.
In other news, today was supposed to be the best day of my life. My friend Duane invited me to go to Knotts with him, Brandon, Liz and Sarah. I invited Kelly cause she said she'd pay for me as a birthday/Christmas present, and she had planned to go sometime soon anyways. Plus, she's got passes. Anyways, we called Duane yesterday and told him to call back when he knew what was up, and he said we were just waiting on Liz. Well I woke up this morning to no phone call, and rain. So there goes my chance to spend time with Duane, the guy of my dreams... *sigh* I'm really hoping that he didn't try to call and get a busy signal, and then decided to go without me, because that would majorly suck.
I just now remember I should take my amoxicillin... Ah, screw it. My medication schedules all screwed up because of staying up til 2, and waking up at 12... But it was for a good cause. Danny told me that someone wrote something about me in a AOL Red post, and I was spending hours giving instructions to Mary so she could look it up. Danny on the other hand, doesn't want me to read it, so he made the person delete it. Some help he is. I'm bored, and I'm realizing that I have absolutely no Livejournal friends... How pathetic I truelly am. This apartments a disaster, and I've been busting my ass all day long to get it clean. So far the bathrooms clean, and the dishes are done. Theres presents to be wrapped, hope to be destroyed(mine in case your wondering) and yeah...
