Tonight is Christmas Eve, and I will just stay home with my family, and all of us will relax and watch some movies. I’ve bought my present for my mom. It’s pink Disney slippers, but I don’t know if she will like it. Mom should like it, because it’s pretty, and it took me hours to find it.

I was in my cousin’s house, since yesterday, taking care of the baby. Anyway, after logging out last time, my aunts came, with big paper bags with them. You know, presents. Someone gave me a shirt, I forgot who, but I thanked whoever it was, and I really like it, to the fact that I’m still wearing it right now. They brought us sweets from our other relatives. There’s these sweet cassava cakes, chocolates, brownies, chocolate pretzels, tempura, tarts and a big bag of marshmallow. Mom, dumped it all in the fridge, because no one’s gonna eat them for now because there were other food. Except for the marshmallow, which was Ed’s favorite.

The next morning (dimanche), I woke up early because Ate She had an appointment, and so were her sister and mother. My service was really needed there. So when I got there, everybody left. The baby and I were alone, and we just slept and watched television. It’s already half past noon when our folks arrived. Sam’s auntie, Ate Jeanette gave him a bath. I watched Ant Bully when ate Jeanette was there to take of the baby.

ANT BULLY

Lucas was a small boy and he loves bullying ants. He destroys the anthill whenever he has a chance, because that’s his outlet of emotions, whenever that big kid with nerdy hordes bully him.

The ants put an end of his misdemeanor by giving him a potion that will shrink him into a size of an ant. His parents were away on their second honeymoon, so one noticed that he was missing when he shrank, even though his sister and grandmother was in the same house; they believe he locked himself in his room.

He was so sorry for what he had done, and when the exterminator came to get rid of pests, he helps the ants and other insects to fight back. Then, the ants gave him potion to get him to his original size before his parents got back.

I like it. It’s just like “A Bug’s Life” with humans involved.

After the movie, I went to the nearest SM to buy my present for my mom. Also, my aunt asked me to bring the cd/cassette for replacement. I did first the replacement business after hunting for the present. What happened to my favorite gift wrapper? It’s no longer available. You know, it’s my own tradition, to use that gift wrapper every Christmas, since I was twelve. It’s the one who has Christmas trees, hollies and presents on it. I like it because it looks so Christmas; with the red background and green hollies, Christmas trees and mistletoe. I tried to look for something to give for my aunt Rebecca, but I ran out of money already. And right now, I really feel guilty.

I went back to my cousin’s place, ate dinner and cleaned myself before touching the baby again. You know naman the infections, noh. I had a very hard time sending him to sleep. I tried for times putting him to bed as soon as he closes his eyes, but it was no good. I gave him milk already, so I knew that he wasn’t hungry. It’s so hard to be a mother. According to mom, when I was a baby, I was so stubborn and very difficult. I feel guilty now that I realized that my hardships were nothing, compared to my mom, because Sam is well-behaved and he doesn’t know how to cry, really.

I was so sleepy, that I let the baby lie on the big pillow in my knees, which I gently shook to make him fall asleep. I transferred from the nursery to my aunt’s room because it’s much cooler there. I turned off the light so that the baby won’t see nothing, and will close his because there’s nothing for him to see. At last, he went to sleep half-pas midnight.

I woke up this morning by the alarm of a mobile phone, which is not mine. The cellphone was lying around the room, because no one uses it. I nearly crashed it because of annoyance. What a such small thing that ruined my sleep. Then, I got up and ate breakfast. I was sent to buy coconuts for fruit salad. When I got back, my aunt gave me several errands to do, like sweeping. My mom arrived with her big pile of second hand clothes. Actually, it’s my half-sister’s clothes. She doesn’t need it, so she dumped it.

Then, we went to the grocery to buy some things we needed for the Christmas Eve’s feast. When we got back, my mom asked me to buy a cake. I went and found the perfect cake for the occasion. Although we always ate cake during ordinary days, I guess we would really like this one. It’s some sort of a new flavor.

I got home and found my brother and his friends, using the net. The sight of me frightened them, I guess. Ha. I logged in the net and found my aunt (my uncle’s wife) online. She had me checked an awesome Christmas website: www.elfyourself.com. What we do here is to paste our pictures in elves’ faces and when they dance along the awesome music included, it’s as if you see yourself doing the elves’ dumb dance moves.

I also checked youtube.com for human beatboxes. There’s this dude, who tried out for Nouvelle Star (some kind of a French American Idol), and he was really awesome. He could do Usher and 50 Cent beats, also Jacko’s.

More later. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.
