^^ It went great. Had to work though, but it wasn't that bad.

I got really wanted things. Like a coat. haha. I been using my brothers stinky jacket. I'm Hispanic so yesterday was our day.

Today, was cool. My brother gave me t-shirts from Death Note, and a bag. The only thing they didn't get my size right, I'm four sizes smaller than the size they got me. So, now I am going to wear em as my jammies.

And, amazingly the necklace my sister got me hasn't made me itch. Hooray!

I had an amazing Christmas. I'm not living with my parents anymore so I wasn't able to be with my family on Christmas (I live in a different state now). But me and my boyfriend Will went to his friend Dan's house for Christmas. His parents are soooo nice and they're from England too so they have accents and everything. They were tons of fun to talk to and we were joking around and laughing all through dinner. I got to try different types of British foods and deserts. Some of them were very, very yummy. The mince pie was especially yummy, and I even have a recipe in a cookbook for it so I could even make it for desert for myself if I ever want to. 3nodding

And we also did this British Christmas tradition where you open Christmas crackers. Here's a link to a picture of them: http://www.utterlycrackers.co.nz/images/xmas.jpg

You and another person pull on each end, and whoever gets the biggest half when it pops open wins the prize inside. It's a silly little toy (I got a tiny maraca) and it also has a joke inside and a paper crown that we all had to wear during dinner. It was a lot of fun, and a much different experience from the usual American Christmases I've had, so I really enjoyed it. biggrin

A mince pie (sometimes also minced, minced meat, or mincemeat pie) is a British festive sweet pastry, traditionally consumed during the Christmas and New Year period. Mince pies normally have a pastry top, but versions may also be found without the top in which case they are known as mince tarts. Mince pies are filled with mincemeat – a preserve typically containing apple, dried fruits such as raisins and sultanas, spices, and either suet or vegetable shortening.

It's very delicious. Dan's mom made them into little individual ones that were more like pie cupcakes. 3nodding

My Christmas was great! I got a stylish brown Southpole shirt, a stylish brown Southpole hoodie, a very stylish jacket, and 'The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian' DVD!

It was even better than that, though! Everybody seemed to be sincerely happy about what I got for them! Good times, good time...
