Arianna's Oooh, Presents Blog for the 25th of December

OMG it's Christmas!
x3
As you can tell, today was a good day. x3 I woke up, like, 2 times during the night. The first time was at like 3, I think. I checked my clock and it said 5:30, but when I woke up again, it said 5:30 still, so I went to the computer and it was 4:20. xD I finally actually woke up at 7:30, but then, of course, everyone was still asleep. xP So by 8, we were opening presents.
At least that gave me time to put up stuff on TA. x3 I hope you've got your pets and stuff, 'cause they'll be gone tomorrow. Plus, I gave every user 200 coins. I guess they'll be able to buy stuff, like pets and… other things, in the future.
So on to xmas! I got quite a lot of things, really. I'm happy. In my stocking, I got… chapstick, a 25 euro iTunes gift card, Skip-Bo (a card game by the makers of Uno), some chocolate (not gonna eat that), a Taylor Swift CD (Fearless Platinum Edition! It has a DVD too, and that's awesome) and there was probably some other stuff which I forgot. xD Then we opened presents. That was lovely. I got some books - Catching Fire (I've started and it's awesome), Cut, If I stay, Shiver, and the PHP Cookbook. That was awesome. I also got HSM3 and the DVD for Speak should be coming soon. I got some clothes and a scarf and gloves, and speakers for the laptop! Those were from Santa. They're awesome, especially for listening to music. Lawl. I also got money, and probably some other things, too… I've listed it on another thread.
My brother got a remote controlled car, but a really fancy one. It's cool, but it's really annoying. xD And hard to drive. My sister got a 'FurReal Friends' dog. It's called Biscuit. I'm not that big of a fan of it, but oh well. xD As a family, we got Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympic Games for Wii (but my brother got the DS version). My parents got stuff too, books and stuff. I gave my mom a candle which we got yesterday… that was the only gift I gave. xD I guess I'll, like, make websites for the others or stuff.
Hmmm…. I don't think you want to hear much more about the presents, so I'll continue with my day. We had crepes, then, and I used the computer some more. xD I went on Twig, WI, and checked out some blogs because no one was online at the time. Hmph.
Anyway, then I read, listened to music, went on Twig and WI… Yep. Then I had lunch, and read, listened to music, went on Twig and WI, watched the Taylor Swift Fearless Platinum Edition DVD, and added the 25 euro gift card to iTunes, as well as the TS songs.
I've noticed that I haven't done much this week… I have some homework for the holidays, I think. I need to work on this charcoal drawing, too. That's actually fun, but, you know, I'd rather be using the computer… Maybe if I get bored, I'll try and work on it… Scratch that, I'm not going to get bored. I'll work on it tomorrow for like half an hour, I guess.
Then there's this German book which I might or might not have finished (really. I think I could have finished it, but maybe not. xD) and I also need to do some CAA writeups. Anyway, I'll probably procrastinate until the Wednesday before school starts. That's in… 11 days. I can wait. Uh-oh. That's a recipe for trouble. xD Anyway, on with… my holidays?
I haven't got much else to say. Catching fire is really good, but I can't wait to read the other books I've gotten. They look nice, if not a little bit (very) depressing. xD Those were the book suggestions from Amazon, so I'm trusting they were good. I might watch HSM3 tomorrow or on Sunday… I don't know. x3
Hmmm… Ah, I remember! I learned how to use the this-> operator in PHP. But fancy that, I can't remember anymore. xD Oh well. The PHP cookbook is an awesome book. You really should buy it… No, you probably shouldn't. Most people would find it boring, I presume.
Any suggestions on how to spend the iTunes money? It's enough for 25 songs, even though 25 euros is $35. I think that's unfair, 'cause if the money for the 25 euro gift card was converted to dollars and bought in the US, I'd be able to buy 10 more songs… I don't even know if I have 35 songs I like, I guess, though, and way less if you don't count the TS songs I got today. xD So if you have suggestions, that'd be nice. I like Owl City, but I've just heard a few songs - maybe I'll try and find a few more that I like.
How are everyones' holidays going? Good? Bad? Horrible? I'm not going to ask what you got for Christmas/Chanuka/Kwanza/Winter Solstice, because there's already a thread for that. xD Hmmm. I don't really have much else to say, to tell the truth. So that would end my blog, I guess.
Bye.
Arianna

I skimmed a little bit . . . I'm in a hurry to get off and play Sims 3. xD Sounds like you had a great Christmas!

xD Before I read the whole blog, I went online to convert euros to dollars and then you told us.

Merry Christmas!

Thanks for reading.
