HAITI

MUSIC: The Hidden Cameras - Music is my Boyfriend

Dum de dum! It's been a while. So I'll start with the 23rd.

The 23rd: OMG. On the 23rd of December, every year my family indulges in something we stay away from ALL YEAR. Fast food! We're all big fast-food haters here, but Peter's Drive-In shouldn't even count. It's just too damn good! So we get burgers, milkshakes, onion rings and the whole shebang. It was really awesome, but it appears that my stomach has shrunk over the last two weeks or something, because when Ryan and I cheated and went to Peter's after exams, I was able to eat a whole double burger and so many onion rings and a huge shake. But when I went with my family, it was mega lame, because I was ready to eat like TWO DOUBLE BURGERS AND FRIES AND ONION RINGS AND A MILLION MILKSHAKES. But i finished half of a single burger and was all OMG IM SO FULL.. Drool.. so I kept eating, and after like a handful of fries and onion rings, and like, half of a milkshake, I felt quite sick and VERY DISAPPOINTED.

Christmas Eve: Mike had an extra ticket to the 'Christmas Carol' again this year. And I had extra time. So I went to see it done by Theatre Calgary, and I enjoyed it even more than last year. That Scrooge just gets better with age. I got home and my parents gave me bookcases for Christmas, and I installed them in my room, and was very happy.

Christmas: Christmas was wicked. We went to my aunt and uncle's house, and ate lots of REALLY good turkey, and played Monopoly and watched Talladega Nights. It was REALLY nice to see my cousins again, because they're pretty awsome. I got a whole lot of money for Christmas, which is good. Now I have more money than I know what to do with, and the added security of not starving to death (because I actually only spend like one night at home a week). I also got new pj pants (a total necessity!), a pretty necklace from my pretty boyfriend, a Chanel necklace from my mom (omgrealfromSaks!), a new hoodie (JUST LIKE MY TWO LAST HOODIES, BUT SMALLER AND BROWNER!), some nice smelling bath things, 3 scarves and a drawer full of chocolate. Everyone threw in some chocolate into their gift, and now I have a drawer full of chocolate. Which is kind of bad, because I really don't like chocolate. But I've given most of it away, so that just leaves me with some nice trail mix and some Real Fruit Gummies. And Tic Tacs, and a Toblerone, and gum, and Callebaut... gak. I like Toblerones though. I absoluetely pigged out at my aunt and uncles house. The last week has been like a massive pig out week, and I feel really sick for overeating. But overeating is my favorite thing to do! Yay!

Boxing Day: Ryan and I went Boxing day shopping! He wanted to exchange his shiny new 4GB IPod for an 8GB one, and buy a Nintendo GameBoy DS for when class gets boring (AND I CAN EVEN BORROW IT ON M/W/F BECAUSE HE ONLY HAS CLASS ON T/T!), but sadly, BestBuy is only taking returns from the 28th onwards. Which makes sense, I guess. We decided to go to Southcentre for EB Games and Aritzia! I bought two pairs of jeans on sale (and they're mega sexy) and two shirts. I'm pretty happy with that desision. Hurr. Then we ate some sushi and bbq at Palatal, and then we rented the fourth season of Futurama, INCLUDING THE EPISODE WHERE KIF GETS PREGNANT (which is an episode we've been hunting for for a while!) It was sweet.

Today: THE DAY IS YOUNG, MY FRIENDS!

I was pretty impressed by that "drawer full of chocolate" thing. Actually I was pretty confused because I thought somebody actually gave you one drawer. Full of chocolate. And then I kept reading and it all made sense again.
Also: Peter's drive-in is wonderful and I'm jealous of your going there twice in the same year.
