Thanksgiving dinner was amazing. We had turkey, ribs, and ham for our meat and a lot of different sides. Even though I'm allergic to the mushrooms in the green bean casserole, I still gave it a try. It messed with my stomach a little bit, but it was still well worth it.
Instead of staying with my mom and step dad, I went to my grandma's and grandpa's. We had our usual guests, my dad, aunt, uncle, nephew, and great grandma. My uncle and I have had some bad history so I try to avoid him, but he hugged me anyway. Bleugh.
He tried to perform and exorcism on my step dad. -.-
Take that as you may.
After we ate, we sat around and chilled until it was time to take great grandma back to assisted living and go to the store for Black Friday. Dad and I waited in line for around half an hour and then the doors open. Instead of letting everyone run in like I had hoped that they would do, they only let us in by groups.
Dad and I were midway in the line so we didn't get the things that we wanted. I was supposed to run ahead and get a 3DS package and dad was supposed to get a blu-ray player. Both of the deals were gone. Since I figured that grandma would still buy me the 3DS, I grabbed one that wasn't marked down and the Pokemon game that was the main reason that I was getting the system. Then I went and hid somewhere in the store and away from all of the people until grandma, who I call mom a lot so try not to get them confused, was able to get in the store. As soon as she was, she sent me on missions to find several deals and I found them and then returned to her. As long as I had something to do the crowd's didn't really freak me out too much. Once we had done all of our shopping, we had to wait in line. The line took two hours. I called my boyfriend and went walking around the store while mom and dad waited in line.
After we left Target, we ran by Wal-Mart and that was totally empty. Their next deal wasn't until 5 AM so everyone had gone home and would return later.
By the time we had gotten home, we had been out for six hours.
The next day, we put up Christmas lights. ^-^
Now, it's CyberMonday and I'm looking for new shoes. I found a really neat brand called Demonia I mean, they're really neat. You should look them up... Now. They're a bit expensive, but that's okay sometimes for shoes.
I hope that mom will get them for me. She already got my 3DS and three games to go with it. I know that's not cheap. Oh, she got me a big thing of Pokemon cards as well.

College, Thanksgiving, Boyfriend, and Trains. =D
I don't really have anything all that important to type about today, but I haven't updated in a few days and I promised myself that I would keep this updated. >.>
One day I'll go as far as to make illustrations or something....Maybe. I want a tablet.
College... A word that is made to torment man into a world of hectic chaos. Once they escape the prison that is known as high school, college is almost unavoidable. If you don't attend college, you will hear about college everywhere.
I intend to go because I want to be a therapist and that requires a college degree. If I don't get that, I honestly don't know what I would do with my life but I didn't think about that until recently.
I guess it's because it never really fully hit me. I don't think that it has yet, that I will be going off on my own pretty soon.
So, this weekend I spent the night at my grandma's so that I could fill out college applications and blah, blah, blah, blah. It wasn't too bad. I also made an It Gets Better video in sign language.

I
really enjoyed doing that because I got to learn a bunch of new signs that I hadn’t
known beforehand. I still remember them which is the best part.
Oh, I got to see a childhood friend that I haven’t seen in
about three years. She had posted on Facebook about wanting to learn sign
language and I commented that my dad and I could help her. We got to talking
and while I was at my grandma’s, she came and picked me up. She looks really
different. I don’t think that I’ve changed too much in the past several years,
though I probably have, but she really has. She had gotten taller and grown
into a more proportional adult as well as her voiced had changed. She said that
I looked and sounded different as well. She’s also taken up smoking.
He
brother didn’t look too different and he was still as annoying as he’s always
been, coming in her room while we were hanging out and being overall
aggravating.
I’ll probably go see on her again on Thanksgiving break
which really needs to hurry up so that I can get out of school. I’m not
thinking about food right now because I ate some semi-raw ham last night and it
made my stomach feel bad. I’m thinking about staying up on the phone with my
boyfriend all night and sleeping in all day.
Which, one the note of boyfriend, things are going amazingly
well with him. I don’t think that I’ve ever been so content in a relationship
as I am this one. He’s really sweet, we never fight, and we talk for hours when
we get the chance to. Plus, it’s not taxing like some of my other relationships
where people had to bring drama into it and so forth.
The last part of the title, trains, relates back to that kid
who passed away at my school. I’ve been a little nervous of trains after driver’s
ed showing us a video of people and cars getting hit by them, but that helped
remind me just how much that they creep me out. I live near the train track and
before, they came so regularly that you just get used to the noise and it doesn’t
process when they come. Now, I hear them every time a train comes which is
about every thirty minutes to an hour.
I also mentioned it to my therapist and she said that she
also thinks that it was suicide because she was told that he was kicked off the
baseball team the day before.
