Well, I've had a busy week! Last Saturday I went to the mall with some friends. I got most of my Christmas shopping done since we went to the mall to see the movie. Alvin and the Chipmunks was sooooo cute! I think they did a great job with the movie! And that's coming from someone who watched the old cartoon when she was little. ^o^ I didn't really do anything else exciting Sunday. On Monday, Wendy came to visit us. She came in my 4th period class (photography) and talked about living in Japan and what she does there. She lives outside of the state of Tokyo and teaches English to elementary and sometimes high school kids, and she'salso working with a production company to make a community TV program teaching English to children. After she left to go to another class room, everybody exclaimed how amazed they were that I didn't ask any questions. A lot of the stuff she told us, I pretty much already knew, and I couldn't think of any of the questions I had come up with. Man...I was nervous and I wasn't even the one presenting anything! Though, as I was going to get into the lunch line (I'm in the Renaissance Club, so those students get to go to lunch early), Mr. Walser told me to bring my trey into his office for a "private party." I get really excited and asked if it was okay for Yumi to join us. He said it was okay, so after we got our trays we went into his office. We got settled in our seats then gave me what she had gotten for me in Japan. She said she couldn't find a live DVD for Ayabie, but she did get their latest maxi-single, Rikkaboshi. And the cool part was, the band had an in-store event in the town next to the one she lived in and there was a signed picture in the case! I nearly started crying I was so happy! (TT^TT) We listened to the CD as we ate and asked her questions. Heheheheh...she found out we were otaku, too! XD

Thursday we had our photography X-mas party, and today we got out at 2:30. Though, in the afternoon we watched movies, so all our classes were only 20 minutes long. We didn't really do much in any classes. In the morning, we gave our friends our gifts (or at least those of us who had them. xD). I got a pair of knee-high black and white striped socks and a Gir (from Invader Zim) pen from Jessie. No body else had been able to buy anything, so I didn't get much aside from that and a little flask of Sweet Pea scented spray and candy from Ms. Dreckman, my computer teacher. After lunch we went to the rooms for our specific movies. Nearly all my friends signed up for The Nightmare Before Christmas. Yumi brought in two boxes of chocolate Pocky (OMFG!!!@o@) and we sang along to all the songs. =3 The movie got over early, so we watched the old cartoon How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Then we went home. xD

Tomorrow I go to Grandpa Denny's house for my first family X-mas, and I think I might be getting some sort of gift card of Taylor Swift's CD. Yes, an American country singer...you're probably wondering if I'm feeling okay. XD Actually, I love Taylor! She's so pretty, and she has a lovely voice! (^-^) And she's a good girl, unlike half the other young female celebrities! =O In case I don¡¯t post after this, Happy Holidays~! ¢¾¢¾¢¾
