i didn't leave you

well hello......sorry i haven't been keeping you guys up to date with my life. but whatcha going to do about it......nothing....that's what i thought. well let's see,three weekends ago i got a new car! a little over a week ago i came home for christmas break, that was good. i've had 6 different christmas's this year...it was fun...it also kinda sucked...i don't think i can keep a fake smile on my face much more. i really didn't have any "stand out" christmas presents this year...but i did get a big kick out of my mom. this year all three of us kids decided to go together and get mom this bird feeder that spins if a squirl goes on it that i had found a while ago. she loved it! o and we got my dad a new hooters calender....he also loved it. the last on tuesday morning i went shopping with the bauer brothers in mankato....that was a good time. hey aaron...."let's get some shoes." other than that i've been working and getting a chance to hang out with some of my friends from back home. I'm really looking ready for the TEC new years party...jill won't stop talking about it. she's pumped...i'm not going to lie.....i too am a little pumped for it too. so for most of you...i just might see you there.

newest thing to talk about......i got a hair cut yesterday...so when you see me...tell me it looks great.

Christmas cookies!

i love christmas cookies. my mom brought me up a bunch of them this past weekend when they came up. yes there were all gone in 2 days. and yes i shared with katy....but i still ended up eating almost all of them. They are just so good!

there is something about christmas time, the music, the lights, everything....it just puts me in a good mood. you'd think with all the work i've had with finals being just a week away i'd be really stressed. nope....and i really think it's because of all of the christmas stuff i've got up in my room. it just puts me at ease. i know...i'm just like a little kid.

o...and guess who's name was on thr first present under the tree this year.....me! now we just have to see how has the most...it's probably going to be mom again...but i can keep my fingers crossed.


favorite christmas song right now: I want a hippo for chirstmas

what a weekend

my parents came up this weekend. they brought along jill and they picked up katy's little sister molly. turns out jill and molly became good friends. well my parents came up on saturday we ended up going to EC to do some christmas shopping. i got most of mine done. then we came back and went to a show at the mable tainer...we watched redefined and the uw-madhatters. both were great to watch. if you ever get the chance to see either of them...go! then that night my roommate katy wasn't feeling well. we ended up taking her to the emergency room at 12....we didn't get back til 2. it kinda sucked...and she's still not feeling good.

to say the least i was good....and bad. i had fun....and i'm glad i've got most of my shopping done.
