Family Christmas

Well, I decided to make myself a blog. Ive been stressed lately, maybe it is work, or maybe it is school. It could be a combination of the two, but maybe this is a good way to vent out that stress.

Today I woke........hold on, im just gonna type without caps or anything. ok . so today i woke up to hear everyone cleaning stuff. Christmas with my family. which is awesome. but i can never understand the why clean stuff up, if your gonna get it out an hour later. but, whatever.

later on i played a little counter-strike source. its a fun game, but when i try to relieve a little stress at school with this game........i yell at ppl for being better than me. so it doesn't help a whole lot. then everyone arrived for the "party".

I randomly got into a conversation with trent about computer things. CS4 Photoshop as the major topic. so i proceded to show him my computer. i like to talk, not loud or obnoxiously, but just about things i like. well i went on forever about my computer and the games it could play. (sorry trent)

then we were informed that the gift exchange was going on upstairs. nice to know considering i didnt put in money. i wanted to, but i realized nobody would gain anything, but fun out of it. and i didnt like the idea of someone stealing a gift from me in the dirty gift exchange. i did get $65, one step closer to my $300 monitor.



i saw my cousin ben's art for the first time today. i have to say, its amazing. i wish i had the talent, considering i want to be a video game artist. my favorite one was the "sexy girl". too bad i couldnt get the portrait size for the basement. its really nice. i wanted to get professional art from an artist named nate frizell, but his cheapest was $800. but i think that i would much rather have this piece that ben made.

In the last week i have really found out a lot of things about me, that i dont like. im trying to figure out if thats a good thing or a bad thing. i found out i always complain about things, im doing really really bad in school.(as ive heard from my parents a thousand times" you are smarter than this") and my response is, "im as lazy as that." basically im trying to step up my game, but what can i do, its christmas. gotta relax. (except for work).

I learned how to play a huge part of Imagine by John Lennon. It is so calming to play. but there is one thing that makes me mad when i play that song. How could somebody shoot him? they can't assassinate hitler, saddam, or osama. but they can kill lennon, the kennedy's, and martin luther king jr.

So to wrap things up, i feel a little better, and at 2 A.M. i don't feel too tired. i hope this was a successful first blog, and that i dont sound crazy, i just have to get this out.
