Aha~ I just re-read all of my old Christmas posts. Then I realized I get Barbies/something related about Barbies for Christmas every year. Heh. This year, in my peacock stocking thinger or whatever, I got a Disney ornament. It has Jaq and Gus, from Cinderella, sitting in a ‘glass’ slipper.
I taught Gabey how to rip presents, except he was more concerned over where to put the ripped pieces of wrappers. He received a truck/car toy thing, which he grew really excited over. He also got a set of fake woodworking tools, more cars, a drawing board (you know those magnetic ones?), and . . . an ornament like Gloria’s and mine.
I got: food (5/5), a drawing set from our neighbours (2/5), a necklace from some friends (5/5), an One Direction album (Take Me Home, 5/5), and a present which I shared with Gloria: a Barbie Dream Townhouse. XD. No, really. It’s . . . pretty awesome. I probably like that the best out of all my presents, too.
Gloria got a Mini Kobo Touch, a necklace, an ornament, the aforementioned house, and a magic kit. I think that’s it.
The day was pretty quiet the whole time. I guess that’s a good thing, as we have a Christmas dinner with our neighbours later. The grown-ups will play cards and cook, and the kids will . . . be kids. I have to stand there. And watch them. Uh.
What do people do on Christmas anyways? Have dinner, hang mistletoe in random places for unsuspecting couples (XD), open presents, eat, dance?, party . . .
We went to church, and we just . . . wondered why so much more people go to Christmas mass while they don’t go to regular Sunday masses. If they heard me say that, they would probably protest, saying,” We don’t have as much time as you do!”
So true.
I take time off to go. I don’t know . . . I go to church to stop thinking about depressing things.
Merry Christmas~ I hope yours was better than mine. Even if it was marginally better, then so be it. LOL.

Looks like you got better things than me. GLORIA got better things than me. (: One Direction album? Really?
I got: uh… A computer mouse in the shape of a Ford Shelby GT500 [Cobra] (5/5), a blue mini speaker that’s really loud (5/5), an 8 GB SD card (5/5), and a day dedicated to me, for me to do anything I want (Surprisingly, 4/5–I was bored most of the time… you know, not having anything to do). See how your Christmas was probably better?

Well, I DO like drawing my own things. Not drawing on a base/template, y’know. The whole ‘Christmas’ thing only lasted 2 hours. The rest of the time we spent cooped up in the basement. The dinner was okay – Racine was REALLY sick. Gloria chased the babies. I drew. And ate. Actually, I’d say we had about the same type of day. Sort of.
