   Christmas & Stuff
This year, things have been a lot slower than previous years. I mean, it doesn't really feel like Christmas over here. The tree only went up today, whereas normally it'd have been up for at least a couple of weeks.

Part of it is the fact that everyone is so much more busy this year than previous years. My dad's company just landed a big new contract (partly thanks to myself ~_^), which has come into effect this week. So having all that extra work right on Christmas isn't easy. And my mother also works full-time, so she will pretty much work right through Christmas, except for Christmas day and Boxing Day.

For my own part, I've also had a lot of work. Apart from paid-work, I've been doing OB and N-Sider related things. I told Justin yesterday that we should take a break from OBv7 for a few days, to refresh. I hope to resume the work on it this weekend though. There's still so much left to finish.

Still, it's been nice in general. I was saying to some people that I planned to buy a GBA SP next year, because I sold my original GBA recently. And yet, only a couple of days ago, my mother presented me with a Flame GBA SP and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance as a Christmas gift! How cool, eh? I was really surprised. I hadn't asked for/expected anything (although I knew that my parents would still try to find something for me, as they always do). It was really great to get such a fantastic gift though. I've been looking at buying my mother a really nice watch, so I'll see if I can find a picture of it and put it up here. It's very expensive, though. So I don't know if I can buy it just yet.

Oh, and, on the subject of Christmas presents...I finally received Torisuki's card yesterday! ^___^

It even had a cute little anime stamp on the front. What a cool Christmas card, too. The message was very sweet. So, Tori, I have put the card up on display for everyone in my house to see. Thank you. ^_^

Oh, and...in case I miss out, I'll say it now; Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone has a fun holiday this year. ^_^
