=O Damn Kefka, if I knew where you lived I'd bring you ice cream as a Christmas present. I haven't had mine pulled, but my friends have and I guess it's horrible for a while.

I've had two pulled before, hurt like hell. I'm going to have my top two pulled sometime soon as well, gonna hurt like hell.

My other plans include Christmas in the Park with some people (after finals when I have time >.>).
Family gathering (Asian people love this stuff).
Christmas in the Courts @ a friend's house (Basically they close off a whole block and make it a giant christmas party).

I also plan on getting a blood test, eating too much, sleeping too late in the night, not sleeping enough, getting drunk several times by the new years, and find a gf.

That's pretty much it for now.

Christmas in the Park cosplay gathering on the 20th.  Shenanigans expected.  Hurrah. :D
First night of Hanukkah = party at my parents' on the 21st.  Hopefully the traffic home from the Bay won't be too bad.  Hanukkah's not a big deal for my family: we light candles and say the prayers and sing songs, and of course there is the obligatory fried foods, but we only ever do little gifts -- I grew up being that crabby kid who wanted to scream when people asked, "Isn't it a Jewish Christmas?"  Grrrr.

From there on out: work and SEWING LIKE A MANIAC in an effort to get my Trinity Blood stuff wearable for ALA.  Occasional bouts of bling-work (yay, Wonderflex!) likely to disrupt the miles of white fabric and blue bias tape, but not much else anticipated.  I never make much of New Year's, so I'll probably be up too late doing last-minute sewing if I'm not smart, or if I am I'll get to bed early.  Pack up on New Year's day, and once Bay Area folks get down here, head down to ALA.

I will be enjoying several days off work.  Really, that's the most important thing.  :3
2012 Plans:
  • Gypsy Queen / Kaya Syokka (Trinity Blood)
  • Risai (Juuni Kokki/Twelve Kingdoms)
  • Shusui (Saiunkoku Monogatari)
  • others TBD

I want to act like the Grinch this year. But then I'll get shot. *BANG BANG!*

But seriously, it will just be me and some family opening presents, and arguing about things.

Wish I was going to Disneyland for Christmas. Instead, I'll be baking 200-300 cookies to bring to work on Friday and hoping that it's enough for staff on Saturday. At least it will smell nice.

Here's a more in depth look at what I'm doing.

- Going Christmas shopping for friends tomorrow in Modesto.
- Play DDR, Tales of Symphonia 2, and Far Cry 2 hours on end.
- Having a few sleepovers with my best friend.
- Going to my grandparents on Christmas morning for annual gift unwrapping and early dinner/late lunch.
- Getting on Amtrak in Modesto Christmas night.
- Spending almost 2 weeks with my girlfriend in Washington playing Condemned (how many girls ask you to bring that for them?) and watching anime. Of course there will be sight seeing.
- Come home and begin school.
