Hi how are you guys going this week?
I'm personally going really well. Our choir CD got released during the week and I have a solo on the first song! Very exciting to listen to. All my choir concerts went well apart from one which was a complete washout (thanks torrential rain!). Despite that, we still got a crowd of about 1500 (though we normally get about 12 000) which was nice. However, by this point I'm pretty much done with Christmas carols.
Which leads me to my next point. Work hasn't put me on until next year which is good because it works with my Christmas plans and I haven't gone crazy from increased exposure to Christmas carols but is also bad because I don't have extra money for boxing day sales! It's not like there's a lot I want to buy but I definitely do have a bit of a wishlist going on! I definitely miss my friends at work, it's been a while since I've seen them.
Hung out with my friends a lot more this week. I had a sleepover with some girlfriends and it's always nice to get together and eat ungodly amounts of junk food. We watched Pitch Perfect 2 and I'm not really sure about it. I hated the way in which the Columbian character was included. She kinda existed just to make racist jokes about herself which were more cringey and uncomfortable to watch than anything else. Maybe I hyped it up too much, I honestly expected it to be much better than it actually was.
I'm going to the circus tomorrow with my family which I'm really excited about. It's been a couple of years and I've really been having fun just hanging out with my parents. I'm honestly going to miss them so much if I move away from them next year. I suppose at least I'll still be in the same country which'll make it much easier to visit and stay in touch.
I finally put up the tree yesterday (you know, less than a week out from Christmas). We went for a silver and red theme this year and everything's so pretty. I love Christmas so much, it's one of my favourite times of the year. I've also been wrapping all the presents and let me tell you curling ribbon is probably my favourite invention of all time. It's the best way to disguise my crappy wrapping. Just make a big bow of curling ribbon and you're set really.
Also had a star wars marathon this week. It was pretty good but we started with the prequels and I ended up falling asleep during Episode VI after which I had to leave so I still need to see the original trilogy. I'm super excited to watch Force Awakens but I'll probably do it sometime after Christmas.
Started experimenting with some of the makeup I tend not to use as much and I quite liked it. I realise now that I'm much more of a bold lip girl than a eyeshadow girl. It's much easier to wear a bold lip and it always makes you look much more put together than you actually are. I kinda want to get more but as I said last week I want to get more minimalist in my life approach so I'll probably just put it on a wishlist and revisit it later and see if I still want it.
Well, that concludes this week. Merry Christmas all! Have fun with your family and friends :)
