Mine was pretty damn good. It's fun to see my relatives. I didn't even eat as much as I possibly could, thank god for limiting myself ;p

On the down side though I made my little cousin (9 years old) cry. She was jumping all over me like she normally does. A typical over-affectionate type child. Her dad said she has a "strong punch" so she started to punch me in the shoulder. She kept going and I'm like "I'd stop that if I were you!" which usually makes her try even harder. she's quite an attention getter. Well, she winds up again for a really big hit, and I flicked her fist ;p I guess it startled her, 'cause she paniced. started to cry, through a flurry of punches/slams from both hands on my shoulder and ran upstairs locking herself in the bathroom.

I felt pretty bad about it, but at the same time I felt she was over reacting. I didn't even flick her "hard". it just cought her off guard, I guess. Anyway, it was pretty nice just to see everyone. The oldest of my cousins (who used to be a HUGE brat) is finally getting older. he's 15 now, pretty interested in cars. So it seems as though him and I might get closer in the future. as a family that is. It'll be nice to help him out when I can. Like... a little brother or some such. Oh well, I'm done my story!

Here, I thought this was a neat picture. I'm sure SOME of you ate like this yesterday!

Are you any good at pool? A few months ago I joined an APA league with my dad (as part of a bonding experience or something) and I've learned that as of right now I still REALLY suck at the game. I mean... I'm getting better little by little, and some days I have great luck and just play amazing, but then some days it's sad and pathetic.

Wednesday was one of those days. So, do you play much, or just for fun when you're bored? I'm still not all that in the know on bar rules, but APA rules seem to be pretty easy to follow.

little late reply was still sorting through all the crap that happened. My uncle glenn drove 6 hours from cali to tucson only to stay the night and till 10am on thanksgiving day then driving back. Ohh and did I mention the chestpain and burnt up matches in the bathroom? The profuse sweating and obvious signs he was coked out? :\
Then we got a bunch of nice war stories from my grandpa about the korean war and how he used to have 20/10 vision untill he saw all the bright blasts that robbed him of his sight and how he had to drag a friend who's legs were blown off. Since the man had no legs he used his to help him, and since he couldn't see the man w/ no legs guided him and then he gets a f**k the world I hate you for saving my life letter and more random stories and being p****d off about his records getting lost and he has no chance for legal recourse because there was no proof he was ever in the military he can't even go to the veteran's shelters.
My cousin adria put on about 60 pounds after having her baby so I got a bunch of free clothes which was nice, her baby is 9 months old and she's 17 and I feel like a f*****g loser because she's graduating a year early while I'll probably be graduating late and she has a baby to worry about.
My uncle richard (crackhead extradinaire) calling and saying he got fired from his job because he didn't fit in and he didn't fit in because everyone was gay and a member of the airian nation (my grandpa repeated this to everyone and he actually beleived it the sad part is I think richard beleives it too).
hmm I had alot of friend w/ my cousin tiffany who has lupis (she explained it to me I guess it's a disease where your immune system attacks your whole body causing your hair to fall out and you to have kidney failure and extreme joint pain). She's 24 and they think it's going into recession thankgod but I'd hate to lose my recent favorite cousin to a disease so young :\.
My uncle john was really nice he got a pearl necklace while he was in the philipines that he gave to me and I did lots of homework while my mom and aunt donna made handmade chocolates (it's like a tradition now to get together once a year to make handmade chocolates) and my mom talks about the most bizarre things when she's making chocolate. Like how she was worried that a big black man who's a friend of my dad is watching our dogs and she thinks big blackmen don't like dogs unless they're drug dealers.
My uncle john's kids were pretty mean to me, I know they didn't mean to, but the bad part is I can't correct them because they're too young to really understand (they're 5 and twins named Ryan and Reed, but my dad calls them Romulus and Reemus.. lol)
hmm and the 11 hour drive down to phoenix from the springs and 11 back last sunday wasn't much fun especially when you have stomach cramps :\.
All in all I was glad to be home and I'm still not quite sure what to think about the whole thing in general. And why is it socially acceptable for people to make fun of me for being underweight which I have no controll over, but if I was to make fun of them for being 150 pounds overweight I would be stoned to death?
