Yeah, so here I am, unfortunately late again on holidays. Christmas – one month and three days late. And for New Year’s – twenty-seven days late.
On Christmas, I got everything I wanted: the sixth Harry Potter movie and a Christmas bear that Wal-Mart has every year for Christmas. It took two Wal-Mart stores to finally find it (in the second one). Talk about me being scared that we would not find one.
After we had unwrapped our presents, I took my things into my room, and proceeded to watch “important” scenes from the sixth movie. What I mean by “important” is just the scenes with Draco Malfoy preparing things for what was going to happen at the end. Oh, I even watched the scene where one of the girls was in the air, screaming. I watched the scene where Malfoy and Harry fought, and I nearly cried when Malfoy was on the floor, bleeding.
For dinner, my parents had invited Char and her son, Chris, friends of the family. We had ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, deviled eggs… Mm, I can go for Christmas dinner again. Mm, that was so good.
For New Year’s Eve, obviously we did not have a special dinner for the night. But we (well, my parents actually) watched the countdown on NBC. When it got closer to midnight, I left my room from watching videos on the Internet and watched the countdown with them. It was just the three of us and our dog, Xena. I was so busy waiting for midnight that I did not get to see the ball drop and light up 2010. I wish I had paid attention to the ball rather than the clock. But anyway, when midnight came, we all hugged and kissed each other. My mom and I even hugged and kissed Xena. And then, a few minutes later, the fireworks at Amish Acres (behind our house but on State Road 6) went off, and the three of us went outside and watched. We were out there for about ten minutes or so.
Sarah was, yet again, not home for the holiday. But that did not matter. She texted us at midnight, saying, “Happy new year.” Then the three of us did get out our cell phones and text her back, saying, “Happy New Year!”And we texted almost everyone in our contacts list, saying (once again), “Happy New Year.”
We even texted each other! That was so funny. There we were, in the same room, and we texted each other.
It was a good night. The three of us were happy. I can’t say anything else besides that because I think that there are no words to describe how happy we were.
