YES! Its over! The evil exam week is over and now I'm gunna have a few days off. Yes, I'll be working but at least I'll actually have time to get on Gaia! As my schedule was, I would spend a little over 10 hours at a college that has poor Gaia blocked. Grr...I need to find a way around that. I tried every trick I knew but to no avail. Now, there is FREEDOM!!! BWAHAHAHA! It's good to rant. Exams are over. The next classes don't start till what? January. I'm good. Anyone else dying of exams here?

On another note, when is the right time to put up your x-mas tree? I'd been so busy writing the research papers, getting my assignments done, and the short story that it took me forever to finally get it up and decorated. Oo; I still haven't decorated the inside of the house but the lights are up. Anyone else have that stuff done, at all?

We put our tree up a little over a week ago. We also have some lights strung outside. Some people have an exact date every year when they set up/take down their trees but we don't.. We just do it close-ish to the holidays, whenever we are in the mood to.

I'm pretty sure religious people might know when is the right day to set things up and take things off, but even my parents that are church-a-holics haven't set up anything yet, so I'm not sure. I'll try to remember to let you guys know when they actually do something. Or maybe I'll just go ask 'em when is the right time and why the hell they're so late, just for fun. x)

I found out! xD

The right day to set the decoration up is exactly six weeks before the last Sunday before christmas. Or, as my father would put it, "two weeks before the advent". Any day of that specific week will do. So, it'd be pretty much anywhere between November 8th and 22th.

And the right day to take off everything is January 6. It's the day chosen to remember of those 3 guys who supposedly went giving gifts to "Jesus".

So, that's it.

... dude, I can't believe I brought myself up to ask that to my father just for Shinako. Maybe I'm getting too nice... ?

Apparently my mom has taken down the tree, but I didn't know it at first. I came home and I noticed that the house was clean. Carpet was vaccuumed, that sort of thing. The second, and the more focal point of my attention, was that there was food on the stove. So for the next half an hour to an hour food and consuming it was on my brain. Then, I began to play with my dog in the living room, chasing her around and such until a thought clicked in my head. "Wow, we've go alot of running room..." Then I looked to where the tree had been and it was gone. It was a funny moment to realize how dense I was when it came to my surroundings. Bwhaha!
