Christmas Swag List: What even is boxing day

Yesterday’s post was non-existent and this one is super late. I’m on a roll here!

Anyways, I think most of you can surmise why yesterday’s post didn’t happen, but if you can’t figure it out, the answer is I was too busy celebrating Christmas by waking up at 6 AM, staring at the tree for an hour, going back to sleep, waking up an hour later, opening stockings, having breakfast, opening presents, and playing games with my family for the next few hours until I went off to my grandparents’ house at 4-ish. We stayed there until 10. So it was quite the jam-packed day.

Oh BTW happy Kwanzaa to those of you who celebrate, it starts today, trust me I googled it.

Anyways here’s some HI-LITES from my Christmas:

  • Getting a bunch of Rubik’s cubes
  • Watching my brother get the Ultimate Rickroll as revenge for rickrolling every single family member with his Christmas list (he got a Rick Astley CD)
  • Getting a bunch of DCSHG swag
  • Learning how to play Kaboo (Cabo? Caboo? Kabo? I dunno how to spell it but it’s a card game)
  • Pokémon Sun and Moon
  • Being able to solve the new Rubik’s Cubes
  • Disney Magical World 2
  • Dropping a Rubik’s cube on the concrete outside our grandparents’ house at 10 PM causing us to have to yank out flashlights to find the pieces that came off while it’s freezing and I’m not wearing leggings
  • Gravity Falls Journal 3

Oh and I also got an iPhone. Eh. Need to activate it first, probably before I head off to Disneyland in about two weeks.

And then today’s post is super late because I had to go off to see my grandfather, who lives two hours away. We left at 11 AM and just got back. It’s always kind of awkward talking to him? I never know what to say. At least we were able to dodge all politics, phew.

Read most of Journal 3 on the car ride there. Now I need to decode a bunch of the text in there. I’ll probably work on transcribing it somewhere since that’s the kind of stupid nerdy shiznit I do. I also started playing Disney Magical World 2 on my old cracked-screen 3DS. I have feelings on it; will probably make a quasi-review for tomorrow’s post. BTW I need to buy myself a new 3DS as a Christmas present to myself ASAP. Probably that nice purple space one. It’s a pun for myself to enjoy, also it’s really pretty!

Uh, I don’t think I have much else to say here other than expect some blathering about some of those gifts I got up there in the near future, especially me screaming about Pokémon Sun and Moon eventually. I’m kind of waiting for the future new 3DS to play it on since I don’t want to ruin my experience with this stupid big crack on the screen. Hang on I’m going to take a picture so y’all understand what I’m talking about.

crack
‘Twas a tag-team effort by me and my brother, in case you were wondering. Equal parts our faults. Possibly more so mine.

Yeah, that’s what I have to deal with. Like none of the pixels are dead tho? I think it’s just a crack on the secondary batch of pixels used for 3D effects. I can kind of see the pixels underneath if I look at the screen from an angle. It’s too bad, this is a nice nerdy 3DS that’s got Xerneas and Yveltal on it.

Okay now I really have nothing else to say.

Except for this really nice picture of me looking menacing in a Santa hat.

Someone said I was a villain because of my pink hair. So of COURSE I had to take this.

  1. Ye, that’s awesome! (Pokémon Sun and Moon grabbed my attention.) I’ve really wanted that game. Oh yeah. A DS, too, lol.

    I got a PC, Amazon Kindle Fire Tablet, some hair clips, sum muns, The Sims 4, a slushie maker thing, and some other things meant for creativity. My only complaint is that it’s taking TS4, like, 5/6 hours to download. It’s at 70%. On my new PC. It’s insane.

    I also had some fun with my family. I made cookies and cupcakes with my lil bro and mom. Great Christmas dinner too. I’m currently living off of the leftovers.

    A belated Merry Christmas to you and yours.

    1. I bought TS4 a year or so ago, but was never able to successfully download it. Oh well. That’s a bunch of dollars down the drain.

      I’m excited to play SunMoon as soon as I get around to buying the new 3DS. Also sounds like you had fun hanging out with your family, sounds great! K/Cabo(o) was the game I learned and is kind of hard since you have to keep a lot of things in your head but is a challenge. Maybe I’ll post instructions here sometime? I dunno.

      1. I should be able to successfully play it now. It just finished installing 5 or so minutes ago. But I’m playing it tomorrow since it’s 1:30 AM for me over here.

        Honestly, never heard of the game before. But I’m down for any game. Internet game or not. You totally should.
