It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas...

So today we went to get a Christmas tree. And it was pretty fun but i mildly suspect that I may be allergic... I remember feeling allergic to Jordans families tree. But i got a 30 pack of allergy pills so that should be helpful. Also i have been having some weird throat tightness/scratchiness/pain. I dunno could be? But that has been going on since Thanksgiving. I suspect allergies. Dad suspects that it could be my tonsils. Which i would also suspect because they have felt swollen and painful as of recent. But I have been feeling like something is kinda wrong. But i am waiting until i have double insurance to go see. But i figure in the mean time that if it is allergies these over the counter pills will help. :-) But yeah we went and got a tree today. I found a lot of cool trees. But not everyone liked them. Lots of red ones and ones like my above formal Christmas picture. But that's okay we got a regular boring green one. 

But it looks good. We have white and red lights (odd for me but w/e). It looks good. Also the other night i put up outside Christmas lights on our stair rails and above the door. That was cool. I'm getting very Christmas-y this year which is cool because it has been a while since it really felt like a good Christmas to me. But now i think this is a good year for it. There's a possibility that we may host a Christmas on the closest Sunday at Candlewood which would be weird kinda. Not bad but weird. After we decorated the tree we all fell asleep which was kinda funny.

I woke up first and it kinda got me thinking. Our lives can change so fast. And when you graduate from High School everyone says that when you walk out that you are worried about what to do with your life. But i don't think it is really about what you do with your life but more about the decisions that you make that completely alter your life. If i had stayed at Linfield then right now i would probably be a theater major, living on campus, with a few friends, and would owe a crap ton of money in loans. In retrospect I'm a completely different major, living off campus in a house my parents own, with a bunch of really great friends, and owe a crap ton less money in loans. But i'm not. See that one decision totally has changed my life. And not that it is bad it is just different. Not to mention relationship stuff... But i am kinda trying to keep my mind off all of that lately... :-(

But this Christmas stuff has been fun. I went shopping at a bunch of thrift stores and got some good decorations I think. GIANT stockings. Pretty cool.  Yeah :-)
