Warning; a long X-mas related post! SORRY!
Hello everyone! Hello and many thanks to those that commented last time. ^_^ It's felt like a while~ Merry days after Christmas, and happy belated birthday to certain friends as well! I think I know 3 who's b-days fell on the 26th...so happy birthday. *hugs* And thanks for the comments last time. :3 Mami-chan, nice to see you again! And twist-chan, too! Wow, it's been a while. Actually...now that I think about it...everyone that commented the last time has been missing for a while! Wow, it was like one big reunion!!! XD johnny-chan, darke, Sesshy, Liz, and those I already mentioned. <33 Welcome back, and I've missed you! *hugs* No one apologize!! There's no need. :D I'm just happy to see you all again~ Arigatou for the Merry Christmas's and comments on my card and fanart. ^_^
Yup, so if you didn't see my last post, it had some artwork for you to check out; I'd love it if you could, if you didn't already. *hugs* I also put the drawing I received from my secret Santa, ankoku. Aside from those things, it was a rather mundane post dealing with a problem I'm having with a friend. ^^; But it's ok...I've done all I could, and now it's up to her to decide what's right! So yes. Now it's the saturday after Christmas...are you all enjoying your gifts if you got any or celebrate it? So many people posted yesterday about Christmas day and gifts and whatnot, so I noticed most people had a great one! Even if you didn't get many (or any) gifts, the day was still nice, right? I hope so. *hugs* If you didn't post, or if I didn't get to read, what did you get?? TELL ME!! [or if you don't want to, don't bother XD] Because I know most of you were asking what we got, I feel like I've already gone over my list several times...*laugh* but nonetheless, I'll talk about Christmas Eve and day now!
Christmas Eve is, like I said, when we open family/relative's gifts. So gifts between me and my brothers or us children to our parents, or things from aunts etc. Well, this Christmas was rather bare from our relatives. ^^; But it's totally ok. I understand that most of my relatives are very poor, and they've been going through tough times aside from money matters lately...so it's fine. Aunt Glory gave mom a couple ornaments, and she gave the rest of us tea. She's known for being the biggest cheapskate in the family, so it's amazing she even gave us anything. XD Aunt Sunny and my cousin Shane gave us all things, although not great, but they're the poorest of the bunch. It's sad but sweet because even though they have nothing, they give and care the most. :( Whereas my aunt Melinda is rich yet doesn't give anything and doesn't care for the rest of us at all. ~__~ Anyhoo, from my brothers I got some games from Corey (a new DDR and a game for PSP, Yggrad...or something), and a $25 Visa gift card thing from Derek. I KNEW he'd do that. DX No thought. He either gives money or a gift card. Personally, I'd rather have something that he made or was even cheaper but showed thought rather than that! I know a lot of you are content with those things though, which is awesome, but I'm not. XD Um, my brothers liked their gifts...although, just as I thought, Corey didn't care much about the drawing I made him. Mew Lettuce is just shoved aside in our game room. He didn't even know it was supposed to be her at first!! ^^;; Now THAT'S bad. D; Oh well. D liked the Sagat card I made him as well as the other gifts.
We kids gave mom this ID bracelet that's engraved with "Mommy" on it. Of course, my dad really bought it, but he realized too late that mom already has tons of ID bracelets. ^^;; So I told him to get one engraved with "mommy", and she'd think it was really sweet. So then he said, "Ok...and how about you guys give it to her instead? She'll probably appreciate it more than if it was just more jewelry from me." Which was true! We paid him part for the bracelet, gave it to her, and she thought it was so sweet. :3 She almost wanted to cry! I love my mommy. XD Umm...so that was Christmas Eve!! Then on Christmas day, D came over in the morning, and we opened gifts. Gifts from SANTA. Yes, Santa still comes to our house full of adults. :3 We started opening at around 11:30...which is so funny because when we were little, we'd get up at like 6am, you know?? XD Being all excited about Santa! *laugh* Now it's basically...sleep as late as you want, and then open.
I'd say overall it was a good day...but as usual, bad things happen. I said that before!! Something always goes wrong on our Christmases. This time...as usual really...my dad became a Scrooge. He finds X-mas "stressful" and not fun. Obviously it's about the money spent, but he should at least try to be nice and have a good time...watching us all be happy!! ~__~ But no. He became a crab, and he even refused to open the rest of his gifts!! He yelled at mom saying, "Don't get me so much! I don't want all this. I'm not opening any more." >> So he didn't! He just left while we continued opening...and...poor mommy. You know how she has those stupid allergies to anything and everything? Well, her face started burning and puffing up, and her eyes were closing...so she couldn't stay and open or watch us open either. *sigh* She had to go upstairs. :/ Poor thing. So...those parts weren't very fun...
As for my gifts though--they were pretty good. Lots of DS games (LOTS because my brother Corey is a game-buying and collecting freak, so he had mom buy lots of games for us...mostly ones I didn't want. XD), clothes (cute things from Hot Topic), these freaking awesome black leather boots by Harley Davidson (you know, the motorcycle company; my mom had the same boots, and I envied her soooo much...so she got me some of the same! I love them!!), baseball related goodies (cards, Phillies shirts, a Philly Phanatic plush [the mascot], Phillies World Series dvd), Winnie the Pooh things (watch, cover, calendar, mug), this cute Nami One Piece figure, and calendars. I'm a calendar whore. XD Or more like...my mom is for buying me so many. *laugh* I got 4 calendars this X-mas: Winnie the Pooh, fairies, Oofuri, and Yu Darvish. Oofuri I knew I was getting because you know I love my Oofuri. :3 And it's sooooo cute. Mihashi is adorable on the pages. <333 It's rather big though, bigger than my Death Note one from before, so it'll be hard to scan in. O__o And I'll explain about Yu Darvish. XD He's a Japanese pitcher that's half Iranian. He pitched for Japan in the '08 Olympics baseball, and he's really good...and really HOT. XDDD And another interesting bit of info! He posed nude in a woman's magazine. ^_~ Oh yeah~ So I now have this HUGE poster/calendar of him in my room, next to my bed.
I also got the second American Idol Karaoke revolution for ps2, and I just was playing it~ Or rather, singing it. XD I LOVE SINGING. I don't know why, but I freaking love those games. I never thought I'd enjoy (or be brave enough) to sing outloud with a game like that. ^^ But as you know, I like playing it with friends and family as well! So I'm not shy in that respect. Singing is just so much fun for me. :3 I suppose that's one thing that makes me happy~ I can't resist singing to songs I know/like. XD Umm...yeah! Sorry if that gift paragraph seems long; it's not that I got a lot of gifts, it's just I was explaining about each thing. ^^;;; Sorry!!! Yesterday I had fun trying out my DS games. The ones I like the most are The World Ends with You, Chocobo Tales, and Princess Debut~ Oh yeah, I forgot I got a couple manga and books as well. I can't live without those! XD *apologizes again for listing more gifts* I really hope you don't mind. O__o;
[edit: I just remembered...I was kind of disappointed on X-mas because I was supposed to get a certain gift from my dad! Mom said he got me something rather expensive and really awesome that I wanted...to be, you know, the "best" gift...but...he didn't give it to me. He said we got TOO MANY GIFTS--him being his crabby scrooge self--so he's going to save it. Until when? When will I get it? Never? Cause we supposedly got enough? That's not fair. And I have a good guess at what it might be...a camera for myself. ;__; I don't know if I'm right, but I was looking forward to something along those lines...and now who knows if I'll ever get it.]
The weather isn't wintry anymore. For some reason...it's practically spring-like!! It's slightly rainy, foggy, and it's warming up. It's supposed to get to 60 degrees tomorrow, which is SO odd for us. I WANTED SNOW. So many of you guys got tons of snow...but I got none. Stupid PA and your stupid weather. DX Anyhoo, if you're curious about my betta fishy Seyonne, well, he's doing WORSE. The ick is getting worse on his tail. The medicine dad got him apparently wasn't the right kind. It isn't helping...it's getting worse...so today he and mom are going to buy a different kind. I'm concerned about my baby. ;___; He isn't eating, and like I said, his tail is all gross and has those little parasites on it! He's a poor thing. I'll need to change his tank's water...clean it...and see if the new medicine works. As for my hairy baby, Totoro, he's good. He's freaking adorable, of course. He's currently curled up in a ball, sleeping near my feet. <33 He'll only put up with me when Corey's at work!
Sorry, this is getting really long, isn't it?? I"M SORRY!!!!! I'll stop now. But first, I added more songs (yes) to my imeem list. Ones from Eternal Sonata/Trusty Bell, several of which are Chopin pieces. <3333 Soooo pretty. I love that game and its soundtrack. Anyhoo, thank you sooooo much for visiting me. *hugs* Sorry if this post was torture to read~ Take care!
