A Christmas Wish

While I was trying to fall asleep last night, thinking of the presents I wouldn't be unwrapping on Christmas morning (because I already bought them all, lol.) and something hit me.

The top items on millions of people's Christmas lists were right underneath me, quite literally. 

• A home
• A warm bed
• A family
• Security
• A pantry full of food
• etc.

After that, I thought: who the hell am I to want anything more than that? I mean, of course I'll say this, and in a few months I'll start thinking, "Ooh, I want this and that for Christmas!"

Guess this is the plague we've brought upon ourselves, and no matter how much we need to get out, we'll keep diving into the world of materialistics. 

(Guilty as charged.)

메리 크리스마스! 

UP2D8.

I don't even know where it came from, but I got an incredible urge to listen to *NSYNC today. 

Yesterday it was Hilary Duff.

Tomorrow it'll probably be Spice Girls since Daniel's getting that stuck in my head lol.

Today marked the end of my Fall 2010 semester. 

Two words to describe this semester would be: life changing. 

Who knew quiet little Blakey could turn into such a loud, obnoxious, sometimes overly annoying, openly homosexual party goer? I know I didn't expect it. 

This happen in funny ways, though. My decision to spend $3,100 to get into the dorms was the best decision of my life. You can't put a price on the lessons I've learned, the friends I've made (and met back up with), and the experiences I've had. 

Each journey has it's struggles, and I've had my share in these few months, but I wouldn't change it for the world. 

The main struggles have been confronting emotions. Anyone who knows me knows I'm a bit of a bitch, and tend to be a bit of a pessimist. This causes quite a few problems amongst my friends, since none of them deal with BS well. Good thing, too, 'cause I be needin' people to whip me into shape. 

We won't go into the other side, haha. 

TKO last Friday was awesome. India and Lisa always talked about how ballin' the Box was, and it did not disappoint. India and I found a girl named Kelsea outside, and she just flattered the both of us, haha. I love intoxicated people! They're so fun. Then Daniel came along, and showed me up as the ultra-fabulously-beautiful gay man that she was calling me. Rude! I can't wait to do it again next month. :D

This kind of sums up the night.

Kayla's birthday was Saturday, and we went to her friend Tyler's house to have some funnn. It was super fun, but we had to leave early because Kayla's boyfriend has a crappy sense of humor and Dean got pissed off. 

I've never eaten Krystal's so fast in my life, haha. 

 Mmm. So that's kind of a garbled summarization of this terrible but amazing semester and this past week's events. 

gigi.

GiGi is my french maid alter ego, named by Aaron. 

From time to time, I get these intense feelings of servitude and I want to do stuff for people. I'll clean whatever someone wants cleaned, take them wherever. Anything, really. 

The other day, I got sick of looking at my disgusting bathroom and bleached the entire thing, but I didn't want to get it on my clothes, so I did it all in my skivvies. 

(I still ended up getting bleach on my shirt somehow.)

After that, I was down to do anything. I even posted crap on facebook about it. I wanted to clean someone's house, apartment, car, garage.. anything! I didn't have any takers. :( Nobody loves GiGi. 

I'm super weird lately, I don't know why. I keep having these extreme feelings for things and then playing all kinds of scenarios in my mind and freaking myself out. I have some kind of complex when it comes to people using me (yet I totally love to be used?) and I always seem to think everyone I know only associates with me for that reason. 

It keeps getting brought to my attention that I complain a lot. I know I do. I'm sorry. I'm still working on this small talk thing, and I still fail at it. I feel I have nothing interesting to add to a conversation unless I'm complaining about something or talking about someone, neither of which are a good thing. 

✔ Working on it!

I've been stressing a lot about my living situation. I can't afford my dorm next semester, and I know moving back home will be a health risk. Both Daniel and Kayla offered to let me move in with them (& pay rent obviously), and I realllly want to. I ran this idea past my sister and all hell broke loose. 

"It's a bad decision. You're going to spend everything to have to live on a couch? They aren't a very good friend if that's all you get." 

It's not even like that. I love being out on my own, even though I'll soon be facing the harsh reality when my check stops coming in every week and I'm back where I was last spring: putting in application after application and never getting a call back. 

I'm such a pessimist lately. I had a streak of optimism somewhere, and sadly that faded fast. :( 

Hopefully I can just finish this semester on a positive note and not fail anything, then maybe everything will fall how it's supposed to. :\ I don't know.

Side note: My parents found my kitty! :D They thought something happened to her, because they hadn't seen her in 3 days. Yay. n___n
