It’s 8:43PM.
I just got back from a Christmas gathering of Chris’s (My step father) family.
It all started off okay. For the past couple days my mum has been completely on edge. I’ve also been moody because I personally hate holidays. Too much stress.
My mum had a go at me because of stupid and meaningless little things.
My step father is starting to annoy me a lot. I can bloody hear him downstairs talking about me.
Bitching about how I didn’t buy anyone anything for Christmas.
I’m sorry. Excuse me?
I think I must have had some “Crazy” in my ear. It’s ringing.
I HAVE NO JOB AT THE MOMENT. I’m bloody POOR.
Then he also had a go about how I “spend two hours in the bathroom” on my hair.
I’m sorry. Excuse me?
It takes me approximately 30 minutes to fix my hair.
Also, want to solve that “30 minute” bathroom problem? Get me a goddamn vanity mirror then.
Sorry that I’m ranting- I’m just very stressed out.
I also yelled at Dale and didn’t mean too. So I’m sorry if I yell at any of you or seem rather moody for the next few days. I’ll be fine once Christmas passes.
So what I simply told everyone after she started going at me in front of them was:
“Well, lovely spending Christmas with all of you. I’ll see you at some other point I’m sure. See you.”
Because I simply didn’t feel like being around her or him.
In closing— …

That’s right.
I went there. Lol.
It’s Approximately 4:40AM.
I just got home from Wal-Mart with my mother.
She wanted to buy some last minute things for Christmas. Lol
I may have possibly been overdressed for Wal-Mart at the early hours of the morning… I think.
Got some odd looks for my hair. Lol
Almost anyone reading this blog is my friend so they all know I have some “off-the-wall” hairstyles. Yet they all somehow suit me. Perhaps it’s my personality? Who knows.
Which reminds me- I plan on dying it again soon.
Any suggestions?
Any colours are welcome. Take note- I don’t stick with just one colour… Ever.
I also do a full on dye of something THEN add two or more colours for highlights wherever I feel like getting the highlights at the time.
My last hair colour arrangement was purple with blonde highlights all over.
I’m thinking black with white.
We’ll see.
I really had nothing to go on about in this. I suppose I just felt like writing a blog to share my random travels at odd hours of the morning. Lol
Anyway- I suppose I’ll end this at here. It’s 4:56AM now so… I think I’ll go to bed. Goodnight.

Captains log number 245081: Buy more pants.
Right then. On with the point of this blog.
Well… Actually, there really is no point to any blog I write.
Anyway-
This iPod…
I seriously don’t think I’ve ever had so much difficulty with one piece of equipment in my entire life. Really.
It’s not that I don’t know how to use it.
It’s that this iPod refuses to recognize 90% of the music I install on it.
It worked a few days ago just fine except for it wasn’t adding a couple of albums… At first it was just the “Parachutes” album by Coldplay that wasn’t adding. Now not only is that not adding… The only album that will work on my iPod by Coldplay is “Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends”, even then the whole album doesn’t even play…
I may have to do a whole iPod system wipe.
Awesome…
Well, if anybody has any suggestions- it would be greatly appreciated. I just got this thing 3 days ago.
No instruction booklet.
My mother just handed it off and said “I bought a new one. This one is yours”.
Which is perfectly fine with me but… Well, you get the concept.
I think I’m going to go work on my iPod fiasco more…
I’ll probably write more later.

Hello Goodbye - The Beatles
I just realized how much of a “girly” girl I’ve become.
It literally JUST hit me.
All through school I used to be such a tom-boy.
Now you rarely see me without my hair done.
Things really do change.
Zoe, Dale’s younger sister, was showing me some UK clothing websites.
I found a dress I absolutely fell in love with but can’t have due to the shipping. It would cost way too much to ship from there to here.
Not to mention I don’t know my dress size either.
I’ve only worn maybe…5 dresses in my entire life. Only worn a few times and most of which were through childhood.
Anyhow- have a look.
- Styled with silver glitter flowers
- Gathered effect
- Front knot design
- Length: 27 inches (68.5cm) approx
- 100% polyester
- Hand wash only
- DO NOT bleach
- Cool iron only
- DO NOT dry clean
- DO NOT tumble dry
Front of the dress:

Back of the dress:

Close up of the pattern:

Isn’t it gorgeous?!
Is it sad that I literally had to sit and justify my reasons for wanting this dress so badly when I know full well I’ll probably never get a reason to wear it?
Well, there are weddings coming up. I could wear it to those…
See? Justifying again.
I digress- I found my necklace last night. Unfortunately that’s all I found.
I suppose I’ll look more later.

Oasis - “Cast No Shadow”

Curses!
I can’t find my SquareEnix one time security password generator for FFXI.
I can’t find my ID.
I can’t find my necklace.
I can’t find my lip rings.
I can’t find half of my music on this computer when I KNOW it’s here.
I know all of these items are somewhere laying about my house. The question is…
Where?
What the hell?
I’ve somehow managed to lose almost everything of importance within the month of December. I’m normally not this scatter brained. Where the hell could they have all gone? Not like they got up and waltzed off by themselves… Or did they…?
<Insert Scrubs JD daydream here.>
Well anyway… Nothing I can do about it except hope they show up sooner or later. I’ll go get a new ID and order for a new credit card next week I guess. That’s of course if they don’t show up before then.
On another note… My iPod is being a bitch. It doesn’t appear to recognize I have a set sync list I want. ITunes is making me annoyed as well. I add music and it’s like “Oh uh… Hey we know that album you just added is on here but you can’t find it or add it to the sync list you whore. Why you ask? Because that would be way too damn simple.”
Anyhow-
Going to go look for my lost items more.

I find myself at 2:40AM unable to sleep yet tired.
So what do I do? What any normal person does at this time of night unable to sleep.
No it isn’t throwing babies out of windows or beating up homeless people.
Yes the answer is C.
But no really, I’m fiddling with my iPod. My music from this iPod won’t delete. Grrrr…
I also find myself thinking about relationships. Not really sure why- just kind of am. Not “relationship” limiting to “Boyfriend/girlfriend” but… Relationships in general. Friendship/Dating/Family etc etc…
I seem to be having difficulty with them these days. Especially the “Dating” aspect. I realize I’m not perfect, but who is? I’m very weird I suppose. Lol
I think I’m still stuck in that “Awkward” stage from school. To be honest- I don’t think that fear of rejection will ever leave for those reasons of the past.
Well, whatever.
Really not all that concerned about that so much as I am in my friendship aspect.
My best friend in this area… Really is getting themselves into trouble by dating someone that is simply NOT healthy for them. Their partner has many terrible habits that neither I, nor they, approve of. They are always having a go at each other about money as well… Their partner doesn’t show them any affection hardly. I don’t know, maybe this is the outsider point of view. I personally think they can do MUCH better than that twatwaffle. That’s just me though. The red flags are everywhere- Why can’t anyone in that situation see them?… You may have wondered why I phrased it like that. It’s to keep things anonymous.
I get on with my family alright at this point in my life. My dad still gets on my nerves. And Debbie (My step mother) makes me still want to ram her head against a wall if I’m within a 10 mile radius of her.
My mum and I get on a lot better with each other than we used to. My step father has his moments. He CAN be a dick but… These days we get on a lot better than we used to as well. I suppose the saying is true for most cases anyway… “Things never stay the same.”
Why the “Most”? I’m 99.5% certain Debbie will ALWAYS make me want to ram her head into concrete. Or hit her with the nearest automobile.
Family functions/holidays for my family is always very interesting. Usually held at my aunt’s. My aunt married a Hispanic man whom speaks NO English hardly. She speaks Spanish fluently so kudos to her but… The rest of us don’t. Lol
So half of the house is always filled with Spanish speaking individuals and the other half is always filled with English speaking individuals. Occasionally the paths cross and you get a “Hola! Como estas?” or a “Feliz Navidad!”. Other than that though… So it keeps things interesting, which I love. I really do love my family though. Even the newly non-speaking portion. Lol Though it may seem like I bitch about all of my family a lot.
On another note- I totally can’t wait for August! Woooooooo!
Lol Alright. I started this thing at what… 2:40AM? It’s 3:54AM now so I believe I’ll end it here. Nighty night.

Coldplay - “Talk”
Last night I put up two christmas trees.
Why two you ask?
Hell if I know.
All I know is, by the end of the night I was molesting them with colourful beads and ornaments.
Most action those trees have seen in six years.
