Doesn't matter. It's cool. I like it. That's all that counts.As promised, here's my grandmother's mantle, donned for the Christmas season.

Well, to start it off, I'm about to put a new song, probably the best and most meaningful Christmas song I've ever heard in my life. Well, in a great turn of events, my roller coaster is up, sky high, among the clouds. HAHAHA CHEEEEEZYYYY. Whatever, I'm happy, that's all that matters.Like those ornaments? Yeah, you bet you're jealous.Look at that. It's insanely perfect. I love it. It's my grandma's but mine as far as I'm concerned. Gifts line the tree's trunk, in all sorts of wrapping. Well, not yet. My grandma only wraps with one type of wrapping paper. I love Christmas. Tomorrow I'll post pics of her fireplace. It's amazing. I SMELL CHRISTMAS! On another note, that video is hilarious. It's a Garmin Christmas Ad. You'll be glad you watched it. Oh, look. I made the youtube thing green and red. SO CHRISTMASY.

Twelve Days of Christmas: Day Five

I've had quite a rough day today. Something happened that...apparently was inevitable. Does remember this all important lesson: Inevitable doesn't mean lackadaisically tolerable. Well, like she said, look on the bright side: Christmas is almost here. Indeed it is.

Twelve Days of Christmas: Day Three

So, I go to get a haircut today, (UGH), and I see my old chorus teacher. What does he say for the fifth time? He's very disappointed in me for not furthering my choral career. He said I have a huge amount of potential and that I could easily be in Meisters. I scoffed. He's veryyyyy funny. So, HEY PEOPLE, AS IN JESS, I'M ALL UP FOR THE MORE ACTIVE BLOG NETWORK....but now you stopped. No fair. Oh, yeah, and in case you didn't know...that's my beautiful girlfriend. ♥ Okay, now the rest of the SONG!

Twelve Days of Christmas: Winter Wonderland

Alright people. Remember all those times you'd be procrastinating at doing something? You know, like not heeded your mother's call, and saying "I'm coming Ma!" just to get a "Well so's Christmas!"? Well, guess what. They Christmas really WAS coming after all. Here I pledge, every day for the next fourteen to post at least once. Well, anyway, I'm just dropping another line. Remember when it snowed a few weeks ago? I mean the first measurable snow? Well, here were some pictures from my own Winter Wonderland.

*Note to Chiara, that one reminds me of the story A Bridge to Terabithia. Isn't that little 'cove' like that wonderland Peter describes? (Is it Pete? NO!!!! THIS REMINDS ME OF THE LION THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE!)

Merry Christmas!
