Is I really Christmas eve already? The time since Tim left has just flew by, it feels like forever since he was here but in fact it’s only been three weeks.

I’m on my way into town just now to pick up my last Christmas present, which is funny considering I had them all bought by the end of November. This was a time restricted one so I couldn’t have got it sooner.

I’m meeting up with my Dad an Lorene for a coffee which should be nice, tho my dad suggested finding somewhere we could sit outside. It’s -7 outside so I think that idea will be nixed.

Tonight I’m having dinner with Mum, Linzi and Callum which should be good. After dinner mum an I are gonna watch Bad Santa and then open presents. Once that’s done I’m gonna watch Love Actually with Tim and then head to bed since it’ll be a long day tomorrow.

To everyone reading this I hope you have the merriest of Christmases and all the best for 2010!

As its rapidly approaching Christmas (it was 10 weeks to go yesterday) I’ve begun thinking what to get people. But more importantly I’ve been updating my wish list with things I would love to get. Here’s a rundown of my top 5:

1) Tim – I don’t wanna be alone this christmas so if by some miracle Santa could get him here to spend the holidays with me, that’d be fanfreakintastic.

2) Kindle – I buy too many books and most of them are impulse buys of books in sale/offers. Also, books are heavy, especially hardbacks.

3) Uncharted 2 – I’m playing through and loving the first and the second currently has a 96 rating on Metacritic.

4) A winter version of my Superdry jacket – The one I have just now is just not thick enough.

5) Peace on earth and goodwill to all men – No, seriously. There’s too much death these days. When was the last time you watched the news and there wasn’t a bit about a shooting or a bombing or a soldier killed here and a kid stabbed there?

As for gifts I’m getting others, this year I’m gonna put more thought into it than I have before. I’ve already thought of things for a few people but some people are REALLY hard to get for.

It was my birthday yesterday, I turned 21. Exciting stuff, eh? Not really, I was supposed to be taken away for a weekend I would remember for the rest of my life, but in the end it turned out to be a pretty forgettable weekend all told.

I worked Saturday night and during the day Sunday and then last night I went out for dinner with my mum, sister and her boyfriend to a Mexican restaurant. The meal was pretty nice, I had a refried bean and melted cheese chimichanga which was tasty.

But it didn’t make up for what shouldve been. What would’ve been, if a certain Seattle immigration agent had done her job properly and not let her prejudices get in the way.

I only got one present on my birthday (since I had my part two weeks ago) and that was an Amazon gift card from Tim. I used it to preorder Halo 3:ODST and Fallout 3: Game of the year edition which are out in September and October so that’s something to look forward to and was nice to receive.
