Back By Popular Demand
Back by popular demand, and so you guys don’t think I fell of the face of the Earth, I thought I would finally do that update I owe you.
Life has been crazy around here. Between finals, field trip, and Holiday stuff, the days are just flying by. This for me is good because I am SO EXICTED about Christmas!! There are only 3 days and I am trying not to watch the clock so much. Why is it that the time flies by when you don’t want it too but it slows down when you get excited about something?! I really don’t understand it myself, but oh well.
So I was trying to decide whether to write out the Nativity story or tell you all what I have been up to. I decided to start with a me update and than do the other one maybe Christmas day or something, that is of course if I remember.
So let’s start with school. In school I am actually kind of sad it is ending, well at least one class. Remember all the funny stuff I have been posting? Well that is from my Critical Thinking class which is so fun. I am actually the class clown, which I have never been before, but this class brings out the fun in me. I am the youngest one in my class, but I have made some really good friends with a couple of the ladies in my class, who really don’t seem to mind what age I am. We just laugh and have a good time. Sometimes we will “Sing” songs in our class forum by taking turns writing the song lines lol. But alas it is coming to an end which means the dreaded finals. I truly never understood why people hated finals, since I was home-schooled and finals were like the report I needed to turn into mom. I mean we had tests, but they were no big deal because they were state issued based on the performance of the average public school kid, I passed with flying colors. But know I truly understand and I am sorry for anyway I have ever laughed at (which I don’t think is anyone but I night have been thinking it). Anyway for finals I have to analyze a bunch of argument type articles and write a 1500 words essay about healthy eating. I am done though and it is due tomorrow and than I am done until after the 7th of next year, so I guess I can stop complaining lol!!
For Christmas Mi Familia is going to keep it simple and remember the real reason and the true gift of the season. On Christmas Eve we are going to open one present (Which is always PJ’s). Than we are going to snack on Cheese and crackers while we watch Christmas Vacation. Than we will try hard to sleep, because for some reason it is impossible to sleep on Christmas Eve, apparently the sand man takes that night off. Than we will wake up early and before we open our presents and stocking my dad will tell the Christmas story. My dad is an awesome story teller and always tells it in a way that puts it in a context we can relate to. Than after the story we take turns opening presents, oohing and awing over all the fabulous gifts. This year we did a secret Santa and I drew my little brother Alex, whose thing right now is dragons and comics. So I got him a Dronkey (from Shrek) and a Powermark Comic (a Christian comic book that he loves). The Secret Santa is not very secret because no one in my family can keep a secret. So I know that my other younger brother Michael has me. Oh well! I am sure it will be fun anyway. After all the gifts and a family brunch, we are going to go see the movie Alvin and The Chipmunks!! It will be super fun! We saw Mr. Magoriums Wonder Emporium for Thanksgiving and it was really good (although I missed the ending because my little sister had to go to the Bathroom, but that is another story)
Anyhoo that is what I have been up to. I hope this update is good enough, and that you guys don’t fee abandoned lol. I will post again soon, hopefully the Christmas story or at least another chapter of Worrywart, which has also been ignored.
Happy Holidays All!!!
Your Sister in Christ always,
Jessica

Yay! Merry Christmas!! Sounds like life is moving right along for you! I love Christmas time. This year though, I'm not as excited about presents this year as I used to be other years. I'm just so happy to be with my family. For my sister, I'm making out a certificate for her instead of buying her a present right away. She'll get to go on a shopping spree with me, all expenses paid! And then I sent presents to Rae, my adopted sis in Texas. I'm really excited about that, because I've never sent anyone presents before. I bought her the Bourne Ultimatum, some popcorn, chocolate and a candy assortment! *grins*
Catcha later, sis! Thanks for the update!

I am mostly excited to see my family open their gifts. my mom and I went shopping on Black Friday so we got a load of good gifts and I have been keeping a secret for a very long time, which is not one of my strong points lol. In fact when I was little, although I don't really remember this but I have heard the story a million times, I blabbed my Grandpa's gift by saying "don't worry Grandpa, we didn't get you a puppy"
Anyway I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year. It sounds like you are being a good friend a brother. Enjoy the wonderful day and have a ton of fun!!
Your sister,
Jessica
