Xmas + a few other things

hristmas was very uneventful this year. There was no anticipation (at least from myself)  nor surprises. I knew exactly what I was getting. A Hello Kitty bike and Lacoste boots were my big gifts this year. I got a few other things, mostly books and gift certificates. Ricky's parents gave me quite a few things this year, and I feel really bad because I didn't get them anything at all! Ricky even said not to. Ugh, next year I'm not taking his advice.

THE LIST:
- Hello Kitty bike
- a pink bike helmet
- pink bike streamers
- yellow Lacoste snow boots

- Bitchfest
- Misogyny
- Out of the Silent Planet by CS Lewis
- Perelandra by CS Lewis
- The Hideous Strength by CS Lewis
- red knit arm warmers
- $150 gift certificate to Hot Topic (...why?)
- $50 Visa gift card
- $250 in general
- perfume applicator thingy
- a pillow case with a picture of Ricky in a sexual position lol
- Moschino gloves
- Dior waterproof mascara
- $25 iTunes gift card

The regulars came over; my Aunt Daphne and Uncle Tym, my mother's friends Nesti and Shanel (who brought over Nesti's brother, Edi), and Ricky over course. I didn't spend a lot of time at home, though. Ricky called me and woke me up at 11 to go over to his house to open gifts. I came back at 2 in time for Christmas "dinner" which actually wasn't ready yet, so we opened gifts first instead (I don't know whose bright idea it was to open gifts AFTER dinner, anyway). I was happy that my parents liked the gifts I got them. This was the first year that I actually got them anything that they didn't wrap themselves. I got my mom a book about Ronald Reagan (her HERO...) and a BCBG skirt, and my dad a live DVD of The Who and a Ralph Lauren tie. I got Ricky a Calvin Klein sweater and underwear, and a $100 Apple store gift certificate (my mom told me to get it for him as a gift from her because she couldn't go to the mall to get it, but then she forgot and got him ANOTHER Apple store gift certificate.. wtg).

After dinner and all that, Ricky and I went to Cody's/Bret's. Paul and Kailie also came over and Kailie showed off her new digital camera. We took photos of the boys setting up Cody and Bret's new entertainment center. Which reminds me, I left my camera cord at school so I can't upload winter break photos >:[

Well, Christmas is over, and now we have to worry about New Year's. We have a major problem, we have no where to party! Tyler had originally offered his house up but he changed his mind because he would rather spend New Year's at a hotel party without his friends. He has always been flakey as hell. So now the rest of us has no where to go. We were thinking of going down to Richmond and doing it at Baylen's but Cody has to work on New Year's Eve and the next as well. So as of right now we don't have any solid plans. I need to find a party.
