So, life back home with my parents is so...boring.

It's not like I even do anything different here than I do in Tampa. During breaks, I just sleep in past noon, eat everything in sight, and play Minecraft (more on that in a bit). But for some reason, it's more boring when I'm at my parents' house than my own.

It's a curse. Maybe?

Anyway. I've done two things this week, for the most part. I bought some lime green felt to make my ex-boyfriend-turned-best-friend a plush shiny Espeon, which is his favorite Pokemon. I've actually been planning to make this for the better part of the last year, but it was delayed because we didn't speak for nine months. I'm trying to get him to get coffee with me before I go back hom e to Tampa on Jan. 2nd, but he's actually staying with me before the semester begins on the 9th, so maybe I can just wait to see him.

The other thing I've been doing? Minecraft. It's horribly addicting, and I've been having so much fun playing it. It doesn't seem too appealing at first, with its 16-bit graphics and simple design, but it's a fantastic game. Best $25 I spent all year, and that's saying A LOT. :D

Christmas is just around the corner, and I'm doing some last minute shopping tomorrow and Saturday. We're having Christmas a day late this year, on the 26th, because my cousins are coming down from New Jersey and won't be here until then. I'm so excited to see them! It's been seven or eight years since I've seen Laurin, the younger of the two of them. I saw her sister, Danielle, about two years ago when her university played the University of Central Florida in a bowl game (football, if you girls don't follow sports as adamantly as I do). It was a surprise trip from my then-boyfriend. Same guy I'm making the plushie for, actually.

Merry Christmas, girls! Err...again. :)
