Gosh, been so long. First of all, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
*warning... long post*

i'll start...

Tues 14- Aarons funeral was held early in the afternoon, so people who wanted to go had to bring a note to leave school early and already be dressed. I left for it and followed Misty to the church. It was a pretty small church and was packed. People were standing in the back (b/c of the long long line in) and I almost had to stand but when the family came in, there was some room so I got to sit... It was a really sad service, but done really well. I THINK that some of the basketball team MAY have been the pallbearers, not really sure. it was such a big line that I couldn't see them, but they were the first ones to leave the church, before the family. It kinda made me depressed and I was depressed when I got home. It was so surreal.

Wed-last day of school (I had no exams) and I gave gifts to my fave teachers. I was gonna make cards for my friends, but there were so many people I wanted to give cards to that I just didn't. In french was fun b/c it was extended because of Vocats testing and we have a chocolate day. Mme. made chocolate fondue (there was a table of food) and we watched CHOCOLAT (with Johnny Depp...yummy).

Thurs- went to school around 1 to pick up the aaron shirt. The basketball team made shirts in memory of aaron and the money raise will go to two charities that his parents picked out.

Sat- play practice at the church at 10. we were practicing for the annual chirstmas play and I was Mimi, the city cousin in CHRISTMAS IN CRICKET COUNTY. Its about city cousins who go to the country to hear the will of their uncle who died. They are spoiled and selfish while the country cousins are backwards but kind. It is also a funny play, i wish you guys could read the script. At 3 oclock I had to come back for choir practice and at 7oclock my family went to Boone b.c my dads work was having a christmas party at a hotel. It was really nice and the raffled gifts to the workers (my dad won this electronic tape measureing thingy..) and all the kids of the workers got a stocking or santas hat fun of candy and a wal-mart car for 10 dollars (well i think the older kids like me got the walmart card and the little ones got stuffed animals instead or somehting). I had fun and there was this REALLY REALLY HOT guy who worked there that I may of checked out...hah. He was tall with American Eagle Model type hair..hehe. But I was with my dad.. ugh.

Sunday- Us in Choir sang the chirstmas songs for most of the service and when we were leaving got little treat bags, yum. Then I had to be at hte church at 3 to practice for the chirstmas play. then at 7 it started. Since we are busy, debbie didn;t make us memorize lines and we had a little script with us. so we read and acted and it went bad when Mark lost his place and cameron jumped over to find it and he turned back to the beging and mark read it, and it was soo out of where we were at that we jsut sat there for a minute, embarrased and about to laugh. THEN at this part, MARK FARTED! he FARTED!! anhd it was before I had to go over to him, so I was tlaking to him and laughing. I also had a part where my character ends up in the woods and gets chased by a bear. So I am on the other side of the fake window and have to run across and scream (which I can only scream loud, meaning I sounded like a banshee) and Benjy had the deer head and made it look like it was running after me.. it was funny, lol. All in all we made alot of mistakes, but it was still funny.
AFTERWARDS, there was a party in the fellowship hall. We had lots of goodies and then they gave out gifts. See, I wasn't there around christmas last year and had NO idea that they do that. I was embarrassed b.c I had nothing to give cause I didn;t know so I was about to leave and then I kept getting gifts! And I was like. OH. Crap. I have nothing. Nada. Zilch. to give. Why didn't anyone tell me!! But anyway, I got alot of great presents, I love my church. Next year, when I come back for college I will get those people something!!

I'll skip to Weds, when I went to the mall. Me mom and grandma. I didn't want grandma to come b/c she is such a burden and wouldn't do anything, but my mom knew I really wanted to go so she said she will watch grandma. The parkinglot was CROWDED!!! I drove around for like 5, 6, 7 mins and when I got to where I started this car was backing out, YES YES. So later I was shopping and I was sooo tried!! The shoes I were wearing were not comfy for so long and they made my feet ache and i couldnt' concintrate.. so I know I prob missed good sales (next time I will wear flip flops, my shopping shoes, even if it it the dead of wither!!). There wasn't really good sales, I bought present for my best friend kara in sc at Charlotte Russe. thats the only present I got, I didn't know what to get everyone else! at AMerican EAgle, I got this awsome purse, charlotte Russe: this awsome scarf..(im in love) , Abercrombie: Abercrombie 8 perfume, book at Waldens, Hollister: shirt, PacSun: shirt. I can't believe I went to the mall and only got TWO shirts!! something was wrong with me..lol! I wanted to get funny stickers or something to put in the cards I was sending, but the line was ridiculously long and finally I gave up. On the way out, I practically knocked this hot guy out with my big American Eagle bag.. *sigh*.

Thursday- went to post office. I fell bad b/c I am sending only cards to my friends, I wish I could send something more but it can't send packages (my mom would ask 50 questions) and I could only send a package to my BFF. SO i was like, okay, I will send it overnight, but lo and behold, it cost 13 DOLLARS to send a LETTER express and was like..oop, They will get it in a while cause I can't fork out taht much. and as for Kara's package... 21 DOLLARS for EXPRESS!!! holly cow! thats about how much her gift cost. I already got her gift she sent to me, so i feel bad b.c she will get it after christmas...
*sigh* for this is why christmas makes me depressed. sorry guys...

By today, I ACTUALLY GOT something for my parents, can you believe it?!?! I think they will like it.. I feel a teensy bit better... but just a teensy..

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
