It's me again. I know it's not what you were expecting or anything.
It's been a long time again, so I figured I'd just paste the "christmas break post" from my blog onto here and then add on. I mean, we're all basically the same person and we did basically all the same things, so it's basically the same thing.
"RULE NUMBER TWO: NO JUDGING
"Christmas break is over.
That is to say, Christmas break will be over in one hour and 38 minutes. That is when piano starts. And then I go to dance, and then I go to seminary. And then real life happens. And frankly, I have never been LESS excited for anything in my entire life.
There is something so unoverwhelming about Christmas break that just.makes.life.so.good. It's not quite long enough to get properly antsy or anxious, but it's long enough that you don't have to cram your un-real-life-related activities.
"'So what un-real-life-related activities do you enjoy this break, Corinne?' no one asks. Well, I went to Les Miserables, The Impossible, and The Hobbit (twice--but not by choice). I sat through three million hours of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy for the first time (because my older siblings were hooked enough to buy the special extended editions, but not conscientious enough to buy a normal theatrical version for their less enthralled siblings). Apparently, Lord of the Rings is something I'm quite fond of because I also played quite a bit of the Lego Lord of the Rings video game with Michael. Incidentally, I impress myself quite often with those games, what with all the arrows showing you were to locate the mithril boxes and the glowing quest items and the regenerative hearts. FUN FACT: I have a hero crush on Legolas, or rather an Orlando Bloom that is able to shoot down 17 orcs in three minutes.
"I also dressed up in my new clothes for absolutely no one, and I spent every penny I received from Barnes & Nobles giftcards (Thank you family, friends, and Santa). I read several books, bought music on itunes, and added music to my ever growing wishlist.
"And I ate. If I were smart, or encouraged the instagraming of meals, delicacies, or desserts, I would have several pictures to post of all the fudge, caramel, molasses cookies, peanut butter kiss cookies, ice cream, mints, and Cadbury Chocolate Ornaments I enjoyed thanks to Mom, her excellent recipes and weakness for chocolate. However, I can officially be considered to world's worst memory capturer, and I have no pictures whatsoever except for about three which will probably sit on my phone until a)someone plugs my phone into my computer for me or b)I get a new phone and they disappear. (I am not just referring to the sweets anymore.)
"Probably the most productive thing I did these past two weeks was find this video (does it really matter that it was on someone else's blog?)
"And my dear comrades, I have no shame."
Since then, basically nothing exciting has happened. I had two dance things; only one of them was really successful. Chandler's dominating in Geometry and the social side of life. Dad is all but a professional golfer. Mom is nanny-ing and we're about to start house renovations. Michael is just Michael.
Oooonnnnn the upside, I just had a serious "you're-seriously-on-my-black-list" chat with the rest of my family, and we're are ALL going to get serious about taking pictures and reviving this blog..... Seriously.
