Remembrance

Hello everyone!
So many holidays have come into my household these past few days, such as Remembrance Day and Christmas. Well those are all of the holidays; but that is more than most house's have!
I have been dreading Remembrance Day for a long time because I now understand the meaning of what November 11 is all about. Surprisingly, I didn't cry once that whole day; not even during The Notebook! Which I cry during every time I see it. I think my problem was that I distracted myself with so many other things so that I totally ignored the fact that it was an extremely sad day. I distracted myself with things like: homework, friends, etc. My friend Alex came over for a sleepover and we did so much girly things, it was surprisingly fun. We talked in my room for a while, ate dinner, got driven to Walmart, wandered around Walmart, bought hair-dye and face masks, walked home from Walmart.

After we got home we went up to my room and started the dying process. First I dyed her hair because we both had never done it before and she was really nervous; as you can see from the pictures - her hair is much shorter and thinner than mine. So I finished her hair in around ten minutes, and it took her twenty-two minutes to do mine! She was freaking out because she is very anal about these things.

Also, it is Christmas in my house because we just set up our Christmas tree which is 12ft tall. It is beautiful and artificial; I absolutely love this time of year because Christmas is my favourite. It is not my favourite because of all the presents and such, but because of the excessive family time, the wonderful music, and, of course, the warm fuzzy feeling. We (my family and I) have only set up the Christmas tree because my mom and Maggie went to Cannon Beach, Oregon (I'm so jealous) for her "sex weekend," more like her purity weekend, but whatever. Anyways, we are going to finish decorating tomorrow and I am VERY excited. :)

Until later . . .
