Going to visit my parents along with two of my siblings, a sister-in-law and my first baby niece. Another sibling shows up two days afterwards with her boyfriend and their baby daughter (their off to celebrate Christmas at his parents' home on Christmas Eve).

First Christmas with the presence of babies with none of them being me or my siblings :-P

Apparently Christmas won't be happening here until the first of January. It's been delayed here.

It was supposed to snow on Sunday, but it never did. :(

Heh, I'm going to a party at my friend's house on Friday. It's gonna be a blast, hopefully at least as good as his Halloween party. I'm going to make eskimo cookies for them all (basicaly oats and chocolate rolled into balls and covered in confectioner's sugar...no baking required).

Boo hoo.

Heh, it would figure that when you have no school you'd be fucking sick. Sorry to hear it, being sick does indeed suck.

Im the King when it comes to Bad Luck....

I'm not sure about that particular claim, as there so many more people out there that have bad luck equal to what you're suffering through, or worse :P

I went to private school, in England. Dunno how to begin comaprisons so I never bothered.

You poor deluded soul. They'll fuck with you anyway, just to see just how far they can go.

The vast majority of people won't, at least in my experience. The few that actually want to try something will go away if you just ignore them.

Shit, both highschools i attended would call the police/parents if you ditched during the day. We didn't have commodities such as "open lunch hour" or anything. We couldn't leave school grounds, period.

Technically, leaving school grounds is absolutely forbidden for us. Leaving school grounds during the day usually will result in a day or two of in-school suspension if you get caught, but you really have to suck at life to get caught. It's insanely easy to leave, especially during lunch or 8th period, even with the brand new security cameras they just installed last year which nobody actually watches. We leave all the time during lunch, hit Wendy's, and get back without anyone really noticing or caring.

Off the record, we were allowed to leave school grounds, but officially it's disallowed here. However, no one ever said anything, regardless of how much time you spent hanging around outside.
