Christmas (or something like it)

Components of a good Christmas:
1. Receiving presents that you will actually make use of
2. Eating large quantities of food, and then more
3. Family time

Having drank like a fish the night before I didn't get out of bed on Christmas day until after midday, and even then that was only because my brother came over and woke me up. I guess Christmas wasn't so exciting this year, because I wasn't even keen on opening presents right away. But when we did get around to it, I got some awesome gifts...


An American Eagle hoodie shipped over from the States, from my brother

A new digital camera (one of the gifts on my wish list), from my brother and his gf

And a bottle of Grey Goose from my father

I also received some new pearl earrings from my mum, and some L'occitane products from my sis and bro-in-law. Now usually the gifts i receive on Christmas aren't this extravagant, but I have a feeling that this year extra effort was put into my gifts to make up for the fact that Christmas in the Morales household was going to be awkward, to say the least.

All in all, it was an ok Christmas. I love my presents and ate too much so I guess 2 of the 3 can be checked off.

I hope you all had a great Christmas. Happy Birthday to the man upstairs.
