yay!! just got back from the mall with chris. was a pretty productive trip. let's see, i got jacq's christmas gift, part of dylan's birthday gift, a *small* part of my (fremont) secret santa gift [oooh...almost wrote out her name. she never reads my blogs, but still], and two boxes of christmas cards. i just need to get my (san diego) secret santa gift and...the rest of my (fremont) secret santa gift. what about my parents? i don't know...i just feel really weird getting gifts for my parents since i'm pretty much using their money. i mean, if i see something for them, sure i'll buy it, but i usually don't get them christmas gifts. my mom hates it. but...well, we'll see. maybe i will. but anyway, i'm definitely going shopping again next week. soo...and i already know exactly what to get both of my secret santas; i just need to find the stuff. so yay!! productive day!! i'm so happy, and i didn't even buy anything for myself! well, okay, i bought a *couple* things for myself, but they're really small things. like extra small. ;) ask chris. can't say what they are cuz then that would give away (part of) what she got for her secret santa person.

i woke up kinda early today too...like noon. ;) was supposed to wake up at 1130 cuz that's when i set my alarm for, but...yeah, ended up getting out of bed at noon. i had the strangest dream...well, dreams. i had several strange dreams. very intense. but then again, i notice that a lot of my dreams are rather intense actually. weird. at least i don't scream in my sleep. i used to do that. scared the crap out of my parents. it wasn't just yelling either, it was like *bloodcurdling* screams.

ohhh!! i'm so happy!! :) i used to never think that buying stuff for other people would make me feel this happy. maybe it's partly because i actually got dressed and went *out* today. not only that, but i went out with chris!! i haven't seen chris since before thanksgiving. we had lunch together at sd, but that was a while ago. yeah, she was the only one i could've gone out with too since everyone's still stuck in finals. but still. i love chris. she's so funny. she told me this story that victor told her about this guy hacking his penis off in a religious fervor. i just stopped in the middle of the mall and started squealing with horror. she was rather graphic. it was gross. i had this horrid mental image. *shudder* but hanging out with chris is just so much fun. i think it's also cuz i hardly ever see her, which is weird since we both go to sd, so when i do see her, i get super excited and she gets excited too (okay, so mostly she's just scared of me cuz i'm jumping up and down and screaming things at her instead of speaking in normal tone of voice) and it's so much fun. we don't even do anything in particular, just talk about funny things [like religious fanatics hacking off their own penis]. ahhh...just like old times. i love that feeling. :) makes me super eager to see everyone else too. ahhh!! i'm so excited!!! and i guess i just really needed to get out of the house. i haven't been out of the house since i got home which was like early saturday morning. geez. i have no life. no really, i'm rather pathetic. well, it probably doesn't help that i don't have a license or car. but still. i think i was starting to develop cabin fever or something. oh well. will see people soon!! hurrah! :)

anyway, now it's time to go keep daddy company. i just realized that this blog was just one big blather. oh well. bye now!
