Merry Christmas readers!
I hope it's alright I call you readers, since that's what you are. It just sounds cool, like tons of people are reading this. >.> Which I doubt they are, but still, I can hope.
I'm debating whether or not to tell me family about me, it's a tough decision. I think most people would be alright with it, since my cousin is also. I could also tell some more of my friends, but since most of them (like me) have a Christian upbringing, I'm not sure how they would take it. I don't want to risk anything, so I think I'll at least hold off on that for a while.
Had a good Christmas! For Christmas Eve we went to our grandparent's house, which was awesome (there's that word again!). One of my aunts was a...bit intoxicated, so her reaction was quite funny when my older cousin revealed she was pregnant. >.> They're like the perfect couple, my cousin and her hubby. She's gorgeous, he's a hunk, and they both look 20 years old when they're really 30.
I got a lot of money, which is always-you guessed it-awesome. I also got a carved, small wooden piano from my cousin in Texas, which is both random and cool. We got a PS3 from Dad, and two games for it from Mom. ^.^ She also ordered us Cataclysm, an expansion for World of Warcraft, which is an amazing game, but it has yet to come in. Dad got me a set of hot sauces, which look good. I think he really is trying, I'm just still not sure how to feel about him exactly...
One of the games is a Naruto one, which I am crazy over. I think I like that show a little too much, but I can't help it! The game is EXACTLY like the show, you could play it instead of watching the anime!
I don't focus enough on the true meaning of Christmas...I should more...I'm too superficial...
And to end it on that happy note.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all mashed potatoes!!!

Our society in general focuses too much on the gift-giving part of Christmas, when it isn't really the most important thing at all. I don't believe Christmas is really religious either though. No offence intended. To me, Christmas is a time for family members to get together and spend time with eachother. It is a time to give and to share. I don't mean presents...exactly. What I mean is that the giving aspect of presents is more important than the recieving, which tends to be focused on more. Giving presents makes the giver feel good, and sharing food & meals is the same. It has an actual chemical effect on one's body. Now though, it seems completely stress filled and...I don't know. You know that Christmas Spirit people talk about it movies? Well, it seems to have been...temporarily misplaced. We must find it again.
I'm glad you had a good christmas. I am jealous of your cousins' genes...not fair. Lol.
Hmmm, here is a bible verse that I was reminded of, relating to your father...issue: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
...I mean no disrespect or offence in quoting this. But, the idea that love is so pure that it doesn't hold grudges...doesn't get angry...I love that idea. It is a...rather romantic one, the idea that love could be so...perfect & pure; untainted by human evils. Forgive me for saying so, but love is quite possibly God's single most perfect creation. Think on it for a bit. Let me know what you think. I'm interested.
