the holidays.. guess i made it through.
Ya know, it's kinda odd. All year I kinda look forward to the holiday season, because over-all, I just like that time of year.. but as it gets closer, I also dread it. Probably because it's depressing how materialistic it's getting, and how everyone gets all stressed out over the shopping thing (they get evil at times.) But once it's here, I love it. Just for the short time I get to spend with my close friends and family all together, well, most of them at least. It would've been great to have everyone here.. On Christmas eve and day (when I wasn't sleeping or totally busy) I did alot of thinking about how I spent the past couple years before. I have to say I am amazed by how much things have changed in my life in what seems like such a short period of time. Even though this year was pretty much normal.. I wasn't exploring different cultural celebrations like last year.. and it wasn't a 'milestone' like the year before.. it was better. Also it was my first Christmas at home in like 4 years. It was just nice to spend the time with the important people in my life without any kind of expectations or anything like that.

And to say the least, it turned out pretty interesting (as most of our family things)..
