Right now, we're steadily nearing the holiday season. Normally, I'd be happy about this, but right now my feelings are just "Eh, Christmas. So what?". Everyone else seems to be getting all hyped up about it. My younger brothers (5th and 8th grade) are already choosing all the presents they want to receive from my parents. My parents have already bought them said presents (Most notably, a $200 dollar lego set for the 5th grader, and a PSP for the 8th) and have stashed them away in the closet. When they asked me what I wanted, I just looked at them and said "Money for when I go to Washington". They haven't given a response to weather or not that will be happening yet. Also, it seems that all my friends are planning out what they're giving everyone. Just this morning I was on the phone with my cousin when she said "Your Christmas Present is so creepy. I found it online and ordered it today". This made me think about what I want to get everyone for christmas.
Normally, I get everyone the same thing; a box of chocolates, and a gift card for itunes or the bookstore. This year, though, I kind of want to get everyone presents that are more unique. I just don't know what to get them, and, eh, like I said before I'm really lacking enthusiasm for this. Actually, I've never really been a big Christmas person. Mainly because all we do on Christmas is drive all over the state to visit my family, which, in my opinion is very boring. Christmas is always the same for my family. One year, we went down to St. George for Christmas, but even that was a little boring since I don't find St. George all that exciting. Most of my friends will be away for the holidays this year, so I'll be even more bored this year then I was in previous years. Of course, I want my friends to have fun on their travels, but part of me really wishes they'd just stay home and hang with me all through break. Kinda selfish, I know.
This reminds me. Every year, I have to skate in a skating show for christmas. And, guess what? I hate it. I hate doing shows, because the girls who skate at my rink are all younger then me, and annoy the crap out of me. I hate christmas music with a burning passion. It's too cheerful, and leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. The only good part about it is that after the show, I get to eat a whole bunch of free junk food with my friends who are coming to see said show. I think my Grandma is coming to see the show as well, but she'll be bringing her boyfriend (Whom I'm 80% sure is her fiance now) with her. And, well, I don't really like him. Actually, no one in my family really likes him besides my Grandma. (long story that I won't go into here) But.. yeah. I'll be able to deal with the skating stuff. After all, I've put up with it for 11 years.
I'm going to stop now. This is starting to turn into a rant.
Jya~
