merry christmas
It may surprise you to know that I realize I'm a day late, but 'tis only the second day of Christmas, and I'm in need of two turtledoves...come to think of it, I am likewise bereft of a partridge in a pair tree...my true love is cheap. He probably just doesn't know where I live yet.
Anyway, Christmas went smashing. I must say I got a bit more than I had expected. I was under the impression that this year, being the year 2008, things would be a bit more modest...well, I suppose it wasn't that extravagant. My two biggest gifts--a Wii and an iPod (seriously! I got booooth!)--were from two different people--my mom and my aunt/Godmother, respectively--so I guess that makes sense. I got a few movies--Stranger Than Fiction, Big Fish (from my daddy), the Princess Bride, as well as Friends season 8. My brother and sister got me the most beautiful diamond bracelet--usually I'm not into bracelets but this one was lovely--and I also got the cutest Betsey Johnson socks...I do love the socks. Who says a person can't love the socks they got for Christmas just as much as the Wii they got? I looked around my room a while ago and I looked at all the things I got and I felt very blessed. Don't worry, not just because I had stuff! I mean, I like stuff. I can't help it...stuff is great. But, for example, I looked at my cool Santa thing and my chocolate rose--still uneaten--and I thought of my buddy Pandus, and that I oughta update my blog, lest he bug me about doing so. I look at my iPod right now, and while I can't deny that I'm thinking about how sweet it is that I don't need to use my beat up Creative Zen anymore, I'm thinking about my aunt, and how much I love her. I'm more blessed to have my BFF, Lily, Pandus, my family, everybody than to have the stuff they gave me.
But I do appreciate the stuff ;)
I would end the post there, but I don't want to forget this revelation--I have secret aspirations of being a housewife! All my friends tell me that I'm going to travel, write, be independent; then, maybe when I'm in my thirties I'll get married and maybe have a daughter--yes, we've decided the gender--and that all sounds swell...But on the other hand...Yesterday we were having my grandmother over for dinner, and my mother had me set the table, and I was looking at it thinking about how awesome the tables are on TV commercials with a table cloth and napkins and centerpieces and whatnot...I was saying to my mother that when I was married/had kids I would set an awesome table...and I had no idea why I cared so much! And then, I want to be a good cook. I want my kids to love the food I make and tell me its better than what their friends' moms make...I totally want to be a housewife!! I already am, pretty much, when its just me and my mom. She always has me make dinner, and I often get stuck doing a bit of housework, cleaning, you know...not that I like cleaning, mind you...Anyway, I just thought I'd share that. Must go. I hope that everyone reading (which is probably only my friends) had a lovely Christmas, and at the off chance that someone outside of my knowledge actually reads my blog--Happy Hanukkah, I'm pretty sure its still going on, yes, and Happy Kwanzaa, and if there's anything else, I hope its happy...as if you couldn't tell. :)

Reach my prismic soul.
"Only theatre people have musical moments."
-Myself
Hello world. My name is Sarah; what's yours?
I love: my long, teal, knit, fingerless gloves; being able to pack that many adjectives into one description; thinking; my awesome friends; my lovable family; the theatre--both acting in and watching; my iPod; classical music; Five For Fighting music; ...music...; "How I Met Your Mother"; Neil Patrick Harris; writing; papaya lip gloss; "Friends"; the interwebz; English Class; movies; awards shows; chocolate related things; New York City; Boston; Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert; telling people about the things I love (apparently.)
I hate: negativity (well isn't that the hypocritical statement of the century); stupid people; bad parents; thinking; my inability to fall asleep quickly; sunburns; touching/eating sea creatures; insects; my bangs separating; writer's block; sickness; my own forgetfulness; my own impatience; know-it-alls; IRKs; intolerance; static electricity; dirt under my fingernails.
Quote of the week:
"Yes, I'm grounded: got my wings clipped. I'm surrounded by all this pavement. Guess I'll circle while I'm waiting for my fuse to dry. Someday I'll fly; someday, I'll soar. Someday I'll be so damn much more; cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for."
~John Mayer, "Bigger Than My Body"
Unconditional Desires.
