Christmas is coming so fast...
I have hardly been writing, so i need to start catching up. One thing that i really noticed this week was that I am really excited for christmas but along with christmas time always comes the crazy christmas shopping. I love to buy gifts for people, but for some reason, around the holidays people always seem to be mean, unfriendly, and just plain rude. For example, when i went to Toronto shopping on monday this lady in Roots was screaming at the salesperson because they rang in a price $2 higher than what she thoguht it should have been. In the end, really don't know what became of that woman or that over priced pair of mittens she bought, but really, isnt the holiday season supposed to be happy, joyful and giving, instead of miserable and rude? And to further prove my point, i was walking in the mall and people kept continuiously walking into me and hitting me with their bags, and not one single person appologized. This time of year is crazy when it comes to malls and i am very happy to be done my christmas shopping.
I also noticed that all the stores seem to be playing christmas music and christmas carols, but really, it drives me crazy and i celebrate christmas, i can only imagine how annoying it would be to a jewish person trying to shop.
Well i unfortunately need to go wrap my gifts and start making my christmas cards, so this blog will have to be cut short. It seems that there are endless things to do this time of year, but its all in good spirit. So for those of you who won't be viewing any blogs over the holiday, have a good and safe holiday and a great new years, and i will see you all in class after the break. Except for Cole ofcourse, lol, i will see you at christmas...

Hey, Man, I have gone to the mall like three times in the past week, and I swear to god, I LEAVE there in a worse mood than when i went in, and thats even if i go in experiencing EUPHORIA!. not that.. i have.. gone in.. to the mall.. experiencing.. ugh just nevermind. But yea, I friggen HATE christmas shoppers when they aren't patient, or kind. God, my mother and I were shopping the other night and this man was being really rude to the salesperson because he thought he should get a cell phone for 5 dollars. like, WTF?!?! urgh people just make me MAD around this time of year. and yea, I agree with you about the christmas carols. Like, i love them, for a day, and then u hear them EVERYWHERE and its just like, jesus christ people.. find something else to PLAY. but i do really really like the song from Bing Crosby and that other guy.
