Its Christmas!
Dec. 25th, 2008 01:38 pmI'm still in mixed feelings. While we opened gifts and I surprising got what I wished for I'm not as happy in joy as is in the Christmas spirit, I miss my true family in New Hamshire too much.
But my friend Patrick and his family, especially his mom, made me feel good. I recieve a nice coat and scarf from them. I also go the most unexpected gifts from 'Santa'. I had put a Limited Edition Breast Cancer Nintendo DS Light on my amazon wishlist and got it. There are always things on my wishlists I never expect to receive, they are more there with little hope of actually being sent and to show some of my... clueless family members what I'm into. In a seperate package I also recieve Transformers Autobots DS! :)
Amazingly, my Uncle actually sent me something off my radar but I totally like. He sent me small 365 day desk calander on dogs, which I kinda expected. What I didn't expect was the book in a different package on animals and their tracks. I would have been estatic with this book in Hillsboro, wondering if I found racoon or skunk tracks. But I still like it.
My dear friend Mei Mei, her Christmas is on the not so good side. Her host mom is awfully sick, so there is a good chance no dinner or presents will be open today, maybe even tomorrow. But we exchanged each others gifts, and took pictures. She loved the scarf I got her from BeBe. She gave me two dress shirts and a shirt from her University in Indiana she's working toward her Masters at. She also gave me a huge pullover sweat jacket, one that is perfect for when I am finally able to go snowboarding and layer up under my Transformers Jacket.
I still have one more friend who I will meet up with tonight Hopefully and exchange gifts. Right now I'm heading back over to my friend Patricks to eat and to watch the Spurs Game/ Read my book. LOL.

Date: 2008-12-26 06:20 am (UTC)I'm kinda like at a loss what to do, I feel overwhelmed with everything, its just wow. Am I going to have an impending doom tomorrow after so many wows? My life seems to be one step forward and five back, it scares me. It really does. Hence I feel overwhelmed. So far not to the point of OMG panic but... unsettling feeling. Maybe its being surrounded by depressed (Kelly) and pissed off (housemate) people?
Most likely its my period pulling a moodswing of the year. It started 5 days late, at least, by my count. It usually starts a day or two earlier each month compared to the previous. Plus it started mid-day, something that always throws me off and in pain. I normally don't get nausa.
