okay, so i've been gone for a week now. couldn't really tell. we were so busy going here and there and to so many different places. i'll tell you all about it. and we were also playing Sims2 so the internet wasn't really used. hahaha
anyway, for Christmas, i got lots of neat stuff. i got the Discman i've been eyeing ever since i've been here (it was still freaking expensive!!><). and i got lots of Christmas cash too. i got a new pair of reeboks(the'yre totally cool) too. i got lotsa sweaters too. to help me survive the cold. haha and i finally bought a copy of W Juliet! my! they are hard to find. haha it's either they were out of stock or that the shipping hadn't come in yet. so kt, i have your copy! no worries.

December 25th. today is Christmas Day. the first thing we did was to be at the midnight mass. after that, we didn't go out or nothing save for visiting my lola at Barnert Hospital. let's just say she's having complications and all that with her diabetes. but that was about it. it was a day of rest for me and my family. especially my dad. he needs all the rest he can get. all he does is work and makes me, my mom, and ahya very guilty. if only we all had work too...

December 30th. what did we do yesterday....ah! yes. we went to Pennsylvania! we weren't alone though. the friend of my mom and her family went with us too. first, we went to the Crayola Factory. crayons and markers and all sorts of stuff by Crayola. haha it wasn't that boring. haha.. after eating lunch at McDonald's, we headed on to the Amish Farm. we weren't able to milk the cows. it wasn't allowed during winter. i wanted so much to do so. so all we got was a tour of the Farm and info on the Amish people and the lives they live. after that, we took some pictures, played with the sheep and the goats, and left.
here was the best part, we were finally on our way to Hershey Park! haha first, we went inside Hershey World where it was chocolates galore!XD i mean everywhere you look, there are chocolates of all sorts of shapes and sizes. we even got to work as "employees" were we were supposed to stuff the gears with kisses. nobody told me i cou;dn't keep some of em so i stuffed a lot of kisses in my pocket. haha yikes >< i hope there weren't any cameras...
then we headed on to Hershey Park! i thought there was something familiar with the place. but considering i have
never been there, it's kinda freaky. but we rode rides and stuff but we couldn't stay long coz it was getting late and we needed to go home. me and ahya rode this ride called
The Claw. it was so awesome! i thought it wouldn't be worthwhile because the ride seemed so short. but when it was our turn, it was soo not short! we were spinning around and around and going higher and higher til we were vertical! what a rush! hadn't felt that much adrenaline in a long
long time. :p so when the are tickets were gone and the park was closing, we all left Hershey and headed back home.
