Christmas is everything right now.


I'm the only person in my family to be excited about Christmas, so it's usual for me to be more enthusiastic for no reason. I've decided to decorate my apartment with two trees, (One Traditional, One Pink), I decorated my office and I am encouraging all of my family members to decorate every crevice of their home. Im that kind of gal.
I have one month to plan the only event of the year that matters. The commercials of spreading holiday cheer and consumerism is getting to me, because I didn't get a chance to buy all the presents in the world. In the end, I know that everything will be fine, but the pressure is on. I mean how many people are excited for the same thing that I am.


And its on to make this year the best Christmas yet. And sadly to say, I have been spending more money on presents for myself as well. Online shopping stole my soul and I bought myself over 4 monster high dolls which I will be playing and mesmerizing all by myself on Christmas morning.


But being selfish is far from celebrating the Holiday cheer so I have to pretend to act like I have interest in some of my family members who I haven't spoke to in a while. Meh, I might as well be nice for once.


My job doesn't take any excuses for me to be lazy after the holidays, but I feel the urge to pig out, be lazy and play my video games until my eye balls fry. I seek to be the laziest person after the holidays are done.


And all after the holidays are done, I'm keeping my tree up until the end of February and have no feelings that basically the most important holiday had passed. Forget about Easter, or the Fourth of July. 


I know that Christmas is the most personal holiday for a lot of people because its an event that we have always lived for as young children. I've seen the home videos of me as a toddler opening up presents. Everything seemed so perfect like my life wasn't changing every 5 seconds. It was a celebration of free spirit and coming together as a family.

Planning for Christmas: It's Never Too Soon To Get Inspiration

It's that time of the year again when friends are family come together to rejoice and spend time with one another. But we all know that presents and decorations bring more significance to the holidays. For this month, I've been planning semi early for my favorite holiday, even though every American consumer goes gift shopping 3 months in advance. All that matters is that I make my home look like an FAO Schwartz store/Cotton Candy Winter Wonderland. And the crazy part is that my expectations are so high, but I don't care if my skills are half-assed. For crying out loud, the holidays are here!
 
Here are some decoration ideas that I am using for this year:
 





















 
I need to go to Michaels and buy more pink and Disney ornaments...I'll be back!

What I'm most excited for Halloween


Am I the only fool excited for Halloween? I think everyone should be.
I'm so sick of Summer. I want Halloween now!

But in actuality I go through a little emotional breakdown in preparation for the beloved Halloween.
I fantasize about decorating my whole house to my theme even if I cant afford it.
I do anything out of boredom to celebrate. Even wear orange purple and black as a combo.
I give all my enthusiasm to hype people about Halloween until its my turn to get ready.
And than I realize I need time to prepare for costumes and decorations. 
I get lazy and you think about staying inside instead of going to Michaels to pregame.
I'm totally prepared. I'll shop for Halloween window stickers later.
Even Martha Stewart is ahead of me And its only August.
But what about my costume? Eh, I feel too old to dress up.
And I forgot about those damn trick or treaters. You know what, no one gets candy this year. Only Me!
So I over think everything and worry about not having a decent Halloween.
I notice everyone is up to date. The neighbors have lanterns already?
And they already decorated their whole house?
While I'm here trying to put together a theme will cheap decorations.
The days go by and I haven't even put together a decent costume!
And I really wanted to buy some cute stuff for my bedroom.
And buy a years worth of candy that would be devoured in a week.
Why couldn't I come up with those whimsical recipes?
II need a Halloween Tree!
This is all going by so fast!
I better start planning now!
