What's with these Holidays?
Posted by dburns at 08:00 PM on December 9, 2003.
Here's my first post. I was working on a personal template for it, but decided to save the hassle I was having, and go with a premade template. I don't think it looks all that bad, do you?
What's with it with these holidays, anyway? School, basketball, band, and newspaper consume my week, not allowing me any on-line time. The only way for me to do things I wanted to do was to save them for the weekend. And then Christmas rolls in. So far, I've gotten most of my Christmas shopping done. Most of it. I still have my mother, sister, and a few friends that I'm exchanging with to shop for. Ugh. I hope to get it all done this weekend, that is, if the stores aren't cleaned out. How's your holiday times been going? I hope you don't have a fate like mine.
Plug: Christina spent her time doing a great job working on her community domain, and nobody visits! lol, gotta get the traffic visiting.

It's About Time

In the past 24 hours, my mood has to have taken a complete u-turn. Yesterday I was clogged up, with things to do, sleep to catch up on, and homework to get done. But thanks to my good friend snow, things changed. I woke up this morning to a 2-hour delay for our school. And within an hour, all of the area's classes have been cancelled. There is a god! The weather seems pretty nasty right now, too. Could it happen again tomorrow? *crosses fingers*
Since I had practically nothing to do and all day to do it, I had some fun. I went snowboarding for the majority of a day. How great! I haven't snowboarded for over a year, so I was thrilled. The rest of the day I spent resting, etc.
I'm still not sure on what to get some people. Maybe a book? A gift certificate? Who knows. As long as everything gets done before Christmas, I'm happy.
Tonight the Bucks play the Warriors. I'm not necessarily a Bucks fan, even though I'm from Wisconsin, but I'm cheering for them in this game. All of the odds are on their side, as I see it. The Bucks are 9-12, which I think is pretty lousy compared to what I expected for the beginning of the season. Why not make it 10-12? Let's go Bucks!

Christmas, Done!

Ah! Their is nothing like the feeling of the stressful holiday season being over. It feels so great. Everything I got for everybody, they loved. How relieving. And even better, I have vacation until Jan. 4th! Aren't I just so lucky?
What did everybody get for Christmas? Some things I got:
1. An awesome Jeopardy! game.
2. 2 LeBron James jerseys, from two different people. I'll just trade one in for another.
3. Telescope. Always wanted one strangely.
4. Board games off the hook.
5. DVD player, and DVD (Bad Boys 2, only saw the beginning, was dying to see the rest of it!)
6. New bedroom phone. Includes calendar, alarm, calculator, radio, basically, everything but the kitchen sink.
I didn't get a new cell phone, like Christina though. I'm stuck with my old one!
I got some stocking stuffers also and some bigger things. I just can't remember them.
That's all for now. Back to watching the Timberwolves beat themselves...
