Again, I will have to agree with my last post and drag it on to say life isn't easy. Life isn't easy. However, I've been blessed. As I said in my last blog entry, I wasn't really looking forward to the Christmas banquet that happened on friday. Honestly, it was just as hard as I expected it to be, maybe even a little bit harder, but the before and after parts of the banquet were what made the whole evening for me. After a stupidly long afternoon of registering for next semester's classes, the girls in North Court began to get in beauty mode, but not just for ourselves, but for each other. One girl curled my newly-dyed pink hair into tight curls and pinned it up into a really pretty messy thing. It felt and looked awesome, I have to admit. Another thing was my jewellery. It was kinda cheap and some of the stones on my necklace and earrings were falling out of line. People set to work helping me fix everything, while paniting my nails and taking pictures. Not only was everyone good to me, but we all took care of each other. I wish you could see the pictures! Anyway, we all got done up and went to the ad building, where we waited for whatever was going to happen next, as if we knew what that was. Once we got there, we ate a lot of food, had a funny program peformed for us, and sang some carols. After the program was over, everyone took pictures of everyone...and I literally mean everyone! It was psychoticly fun! The crowds pittered out and everyone began to go their seperate ways. Jerilee and I went up to our friend Chris and asked him if he was doing anything that evening, and he replied with, "I dunno, am I?" He was. The three of us and our friend, Skylar, went to the city, all dressed up. We hit a Tim Horton's first thing, and I got an extra large hazelnut hot smoothie. Divine, to say the least. Then we went to the mall to catch a movie, but we were late and they were all dumb anyway, so we ended up cramming all four of us into one small photo booth. Again, I wish you could all see the pictures. The two guys had never been in a photo booth before so it was just funny to hear their reactions. We spent the remainder of the eneving driving around the city looking for extranagant Christmas lights displays. Unfortunately, in spite of all the fun I was having, I was sorta holding in some hurt and stress, and holding that in is particularly bad for me, and I felt quite feverish so I couldn't even get out of the car to take pictures when Skylar and Jerilee went into someone's yard to hug their inflatable penguins. Chris took pictures for me though. Yet again, I wish you could see them. It's funny, because if my family reads this, they will see them. So the evening turned out good in amongst everything that has happened. Everyone is so patient with me, even when I'm ridiculously weepy, still knows for spontaneous bursts of crying. However, life is still "grand" in the words of Julian. Exams are half over, and just last night, a girl named Nadia and I bonded to such a degree that, when we finally looked at the time, it was four this morning, so we continued to hang out and study til about five thirty. Well, I'm tired but life continues. I'm so excited to go home on thursday, it's ridiculous. I want to let down the stress and get out of the bubble. I miss my family, and now I can spend real time with them. Merry Christmas.
