Lazy Day

So today didn't start out well for me. Let me start with saying I'm a night owl. I tend to be most awake during the night no matter how long ago it was since I last slept. Last night was one of those nights for me, I didn't get to slept until 5(ish)am. The problem with that is that I was supposed to work at 9am - 2pm. It's not a long shift but it's long enough when you don't have much sleep. Not only that but it takes me an hour to walk there and I had woken up late so I had to walk extra fast. My calves are still burning. And walking home was just hot and too bright for my eyes to stand it.

So currently I am sitting in my room with my fans pointed right at me (no a/c in my room for now). So instead of doing major crafts for my Christmas plans today I'm just going to do some simple ones that can be done on my computer. I feel way too lazy today. I don't even know if I'm going to get my workout routine in... 0.0 I'm too sore but I probably should at least try to do a little something...
Anyway, this is what I'm working on Christmas Newsletter. It's going to be my own version but this is what I got the inspiration from.

Christmas Music in August!

Wow lol I decided to turn on some Christmas music while I was preparing some Christmas activities to do later on with my dad's kindergarden students (he's letting me take charge of the crafts this year) and now I'm in a Christmas mood! I feel like it should be Christmas already. That was probably a bad idea lol. But I do love the feeling that I have now. I was even talking to some friends about it >.<. It's contagious!
Well, At least I'm getting the students taken care of. And I have a list of things that I need later on for fun things to do with my family. Now I just need to start getting the needs list for those things that I want to hide from them! This part is going to be so hard!
So, I am in love with the older music, it just feels more Christmas-y! And putting them on while decorating your home... 0.0 Perfection! Try it and see how it changes the mood that everyone is in. Even as a semi-rebellious teen, if there was older Christmas music on and plenty of beautiful decoration you could count on me helping out. :)

Big plans, Much to do!

So, first and foremost I would like to just say that I'm a bit odd. Now that you know that lets get down to business.
So far throughout my life party plans have always failed and special occasions turned into ordinary days with maybe a few hugs. Well I don't like that.
So this year I have decided that I'm going to do some REALLY special!
My favorite holiday it Christmas so that's the occasion I'm going to use. And since this year we have two foreign exchange students living with us I'm really going to go big!
But it's also a surprise... so if you know my family don't tell anyone! lol now to get down to business.
Starting now (I know it's early but there's a reason for that) I am going to be making stuff for decorations and getting gifts from all over. I'll have to find hiding places for all the stuff... maybe I'll get me a small storage unit to do so and say it's for my stuff... -.- I'll put a lock on it.
Anyway! I'm going to do everything I can!
Of course I will do some things with the family but for the most part things are going to be secret. And then on Christmas eve night when everyone goes to sleep, just like my parents did for me when I was a child, I will sneak out and put everything up. And plenty of presents :) because everyone loves those.
I want the place to be overrun with Christmas! :D
Then on Christmas morning I will wake up earlier then everyone and make a Christmas breakfast that I'll surprise them with. And well have treats, games, activities, and of course, present opening all day!
hehe! I'm already excited!

For the other holidays before then... ya... I'll just let the family take care of most of that. At least for this year.
I'll participate. Just not as much as I will be doing for Christmas.

And yes, I will be blogging EVERYTHING! I'll make sure to take lots of pictures and give you detailed accounts of whats going on so maybe some time you can follow my lead ^_^ and just so that you have something interesting to look forward too.
I'll probably be blogging everyday or at least every other day. wow... That's going to be a lot. But hey! At least it will all be fun fun fun!
