Merry Christmas all!!

So this Christmas, I didn't ask for too much because of our current situation, but I still got gifts anyways.

Some cash from the Godmother
Talarias from my mom
2004 French Blue XIIs and OG Nubuck XIIs from my cousin
Jacket from my dad
I still think Christmas was good for me. I'm getting to that age where I know how to get what I want and how to go about it so gifts weren't really as important for me because all I was going to ask for were for more shoes, clothes, a new cell phone, laptop, Zune HD, Nintendo DSi, and an Xbox 360 Elite with none other than Modern Warfare 2, Tekken 6, Left 4 Dead 2, and Fallout 3 Collector's Edition for that downloadable content goodness. Oh well, that's what getting a job is for. :)
Will post pictures tomorrow after this madness!

Finally feels like Christmas now that our family has picked up our Christmas tree. Surprised it's this big this year with our current financial situation, but it looks great. Hopefully it didn't cost too much so I don't feel as bad that our mom is trying to make us forget about our hard times with Christmas around the corner.

So I had a pretty late start with school this morning despite having cleaned up a ton of stuff so that we could leave the house a lot quicker. Decided I wanted to wear my Bandaids one last time before I cleaned them using the fatjodz method of shoe cleaning. Haven't worn them much since then because they were hella dirty and I think I stepped in dog poo so they've been under my bed. Now that I remember, I have to clean up under there..Grr... Anyways, I figured out a way to replace my wrestling shoes after their tragic death on Saturday during my second match against QO and I'm managing to be able to get my wrestling shoe grails, the black/silver Adidas Beijing Adistar wrestling shoes for this year. Can't wait, but I know I'll have to work extra hours for Vance. It'll all be worth it though, been wanting them since last year, but have never had the chance to save up money for it.

Wanted to always take a picture of my cockatoo, but never found a right time to until today.

So today, my foot burst through the soles of my wrestling shoes. Lasted me 4 good years. The bottom reads
"QO 8-8 12/5/09" and the second line reads "Never again!" in reference to how I was cheated in terms of the scoring in my match with Austin Williams, the 171 for QO.

Day before my first match and found myself staring at my wall where my hat was so I decided to take it down and take a shot.

Just realized I desperately need a new bottle of Jason Markks. Sucks not to be able to clean my shoes up properly without it.

Second day of Project 365, realized I didn't bring these to the person I bought them for. Been so tempted to be a fatty and eat these all up

First day of Project 365, late upload. Decided to finally take a shot of my Domo cups that I still have, wish I had some of this right now for all this work tonight. Grr...
