Preparing my stomach :P

I'm back home, and it's really good, although it's a mess with all my stuff around, and dust flying everywhere, it's a bit like a snow storm each time I move something, that's winter spirit :D Today is cleaning day, and I'm kind of an obsessive cleaner, so it will take me hours... I already did a lot of stuff today, and it's a good thing.

I went to buy a classy suit last week. My grand-mother is turning 80 on January 1st, and we are all going to a big hotel on the lakeside to have a big meal with all the family and some friends of her, so I have to be dressed correctly. God, I look good in a suit :P I had to give it to a friend of my sister to make the leaves a bit shorter, and I hope it will be ready on time! I also went to buy some new shoes, because I only had bad ones, and I went with a friend, we had to go in 4 shops to find the good ones, so many seemed so weird... I found the perfect pair, but they are slightly to tight. It was the last pair, and I took it nevertheless, because it was the only pair I liked. Does anyone know how to make them a bit more comfortable?

I already saw a lot of my friends, and had a christmas party with some of them, it was really cool. I called Stan to see how he's doing and to ask if he had time to meet. He was kind of depressed, he's alone in his flat, working for his exams, and he said he was not even sure to go to his family at christmas. I said "hey man, come over, we'll eat something and really, I think you should go to your family, if you don't you'll regret it." His grandmother is getting really old and weak, and her husband died this year, so she's really lonely. I told him that if he's not going she will be so sad, and so will he be I think, as I know him. So he's going after all.

I don't know when we will meet, it's always a bit strange. We are best friends, we share everything, but we don't meet very often, or call each other. He told me that he was so lonely at home without his roommate, and I told him several times that if he wants to see somebody, I'm also alone and free most of the time during the week, and told him he should give a call, but he never does, unless he's really in a bad mood. And I do the same on my side, because I always feel like I could bother him or so, I don't know why... it's a bit stupid I think. Well, we have to correct that for the new year!

I'm going to my grand-mother for Christmas eve. We have a giant swedish traditional meal, and it's awesome! and on the 25th I'm going to my father. It's two totally different ways to celebrate Christmas...

So, I wish you all a merry Christmas! Have a nice time, drink and eat enough :P we never know what can happen in the future!

If you wear new shoes long enough, they'll loosen up a bit. But until then, it's a real pain to wear them. Try wearing thinner socks, that might help.

I wish you a great holiday!! :D
