X-MAS break. DaY 1

so this is my first day back at home for good ol' christmas break. basically the greatest time of year. because there is an entire month off from school (and really any brain activity in general), presents from Christmas, Christmas in itself, New Year's EVE (i want to clarify that i only put new year's eve and not new year's day.....because think about it: who actually likes the day of new years? no one. most people spend it severely hungover and extremely hungry or at the gym trying to not break their resolution the very first day. I think the day as a whole just has a lot of pressure put on it. like if you fuck up this day, then you're entire following year is supposedly just...well... just fucked. for lack of a better word).

i apologize for my rambling. back to the point. i want to try and complete some sort of task this christmas break. or have something to show for an entire month of "blobbing" around.....which is where this idea came into play: i am going to keep a "log". think of it as a play-by-play/day-by-day update on my break. don't worry, i'll try to include pictures or something to keep it lively.

now buckle up (or strap in for those of you flying in rockets) and enjoy the ride.
please keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times. no flash photography please.

DAY 1:
enjoyed my 4 hours spent on the airplane. and all the quality people watching gained from being in an airport. airports just have such good vibes. i love them. almost as much as i love cake. or maybe equivalent to my love of cake. whatever, that's clearly off topic. my lovely parents picked me up and we then went to jim n nicks...the GREATEST BBQ PLACE OF ALL TIME. no joke. and i'm a serious bbq fanatic, so you're safe in considering me a credible critic.

after eating the most delicious bbq pulled pork sandwich and cinnamon apples, and enduring the 40 minute car ride home...my day got increasingly uneventful. yeah, i know, hardtobelieve. lets see i can probably put this in list form so as to not cause you any more pain in having to suffer through reading this.

1. met [and fell in love with] the new puppy my family got while i was away at school. thanks family, good to know i'm replaceable.
2. made a quick fridge and pantry inventory check...so as to know what i can eat once boredom sets in
3. picked up little brother from school. clearly all i'm good for is chauffeuring.
4. it just so happened to be 3pm when we got back....so obviously: watched Ellen.
5. made dinner for the fam. oh wait, i'm also a cook. (not chef status yet, but eventually i may get a promotion)
6. helped mom wrap presents for cousins.
7. mom decides she wants 'goodies' in the package we're sending them. guess who got to make chex muddy buddies? yep, yours truly.
8. ate 1/4 of the bag just to be spiteful. Ha!
9. took a bath. mmm how i have missed baths. still not sure how they help you get clean though...?
10. watched literally THE WORST movie : the Back-up Plan. couldn't even force myself to finish it. jennifer lopez, sorry but i'm not a fan.
11. eh, sorry kids but that brings us up to the present. which subsequently means i should be done and say au reviour till tomorrow. (i think thats french for goodbye?)
