So new year has already been and gone like 2 hours ago, but anywho ima write about it, and Christmas anyway.
Christmas this year was actually not that bad, considering I'm a scrooge and was not looking forward to it at all. For a long time now Christmas has not had many good memories and it generally reminds me of some of the less awesome things about my life, So this year I was not in the "spirit" at all. On the day however, after being woken up stupidly early, I did have quite a nice time. My nan and grandad and my mom's cousin came round and it was pretty fun. My meat-less dinner was nice and the day was overall pleasant. The only downer was on the night I got really ill with a cold and I've spent most of the last week in bed.
For Christmas I got some pretty cool stuff =]
My Mom is paying for my driving lessons as a Christmas present.
I got money from people for my theory and test, and because I'm the "Awkward Child" who spends money on ear stretchers and random band tee's.
I also got the most epic earphones ever, Skullcandy's, the ones with the sub woofer, so the bass is amazing.
I had a make-up palette which was really nice and I got some more nail polishes so I can carry on with my nail art.
I had alot of chocolate and edibles which i shall be enjoying for the next few months.
Another cool thing I got was a stylophone, I haven't learnt anything on it yet, but I'll keep you updated.
So after Christmas was done I tried to make plans for new years.
I got invited to a couple of parties and I was going to go, But like I said, Ive been really ill, so I wasn't able to go. New year wasn't bad though, My family came round and my mom's boyfriend and some of his family too. I have to say the one thing I hate abut new years is all the status' on facebook and other websites about the whole "new year, new me, time for a change" I don't understand why people have to wait for the start of the new year to change their lives, If your not happy change it whenever, don't wait. I'm not going for a "new me" this year, yes, last year my idea was to re-invent myself but at that point I was very unhappy. Right now, I'm happy with who I am and I don't feel like I need to change.
This is turning into quite a long post, apologies (mainly because I'm about to get all deep). Overall 2010 has been quite an important year for me. I feel like I've moved forward and I'm finally growing up, not in the sense of losing my childhood, I'm a long way off losing my interest in building forts, Play-Doh, Disney and Sabrina the teenage witch. I mean I have grown-up in the way I deal with things, an example would be not getting into to uni a few months back, In 2009 something like that would have pushed me over the edge and I'd have ended up depressed for months, but in 2010, I shrugged it off and found a new path to take and I'm much happier for it.
I'm looking forward to 2011, because I feel alot stronger and happier at the start. There is alot for me to be excited about.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas, A very happy New year
and I hope ELEVEN is amazing.
