I tried to take other piccies this time, than the last time. I hope it worked. Here is my photolog of a not too eventful day.

Participants: Lele, Lauryn, Rah, Nick, Pei, Reverie, Kevin, Daynah, Peachsoda, Sweetfins

Getting up, slowly, but surely.

Looking outside to look for snow…hmmm, not really snow, but almost.

watching downhill skiing, and drinking my breakfast. On the cup is a naked Santa, taking a bath by the way.

setting everything up for my adventcalender cam pic

formatting computer, again

my Mom is a good cook, really!

the food doesn´t even attract the dog, bad sign?

feeding the turtle, she is sooooo slow, we have to feed her on paper, as she gets so excited to be fed, that she pees
immediatly

preparing another christmas decoration, but realizing the branch is way to big

Mom suggested to cut the little branches off, which I did

looks good, what do you think?

about to finish putting up the rest of the christmas decoration

can it be true? Connie is practising guitar? A miracle, a shot you hardly ever see (except 2 hours before the lesson)

watching the german pop idol

playing Neopets

was supposed to pick up my desk so that my brother can study, eek, maybe tomorrow

making a picture of my turtle shrine for you to see, yummie, so many turtles *drool*

going to bed, didn´t fall asleep of course until way way later

In Austria we celebrate Christmas on the 24th of December. Here´s a log of how my Christmas was.

Participants: Eve, Peachsoda, Lele, Reverie, Daynah, Lauryn, Ling, Dodo, Bobbi, Kristy

I always start with the same pic

Sending out Christmas gifts, but not before checking for comments. *wink*

our tree still unpacked

Adventkranz burning for the last time, before we burned it

Christmas cookies

by now you know that my breakfast is tea, drinking out of my Santa cup, guarded by a christmas turtle

camera was out of order, it decided to strike *grrrrrr*

brother working on christmas tree

Mom´ s watching “Licht ins Dunkel". It runs all day. It´s a marathon show, where people call in and donate money for handicapped children/adults, and people in need. This year they raised 5.5 Million Euros which equals a bit more than 5.5 Million Dollars.

Nikki doesn´t like all the hectic at all, hectic because we are running late, as so much went
wrong *sigh*

Presents for parents before I wrapped them. Yep, I spoiled them this year.

Done!

my pressies *yumm*

Some time later: Nikki opening her present under the table.

Later again: my unwrapped gifts, can you see the turtle? *drool*
The pink thing is Skinny underware

picture talks for itself

taking piccie of dog and brother sleeping

going to bed, yes, I played the Sims for almost 5 hours straight. :O hehe

Even though so much wrong, it still was a good Christmas, I hope yours was too.

This is how my I spent the last day of the year 2002.

Participants: beebugs, Christine, Claire, Daynah, Dinh, Eva, Gia, Jen, Lele, Lin, Kirsty, Marco, Meggie, Psyche, Rah, reverie, Sarah, sheherazade, SweetFins

Getting up, as usual not very early. And again, I am starting with the same pic.

Making breakfast, but can´t decide which tea to make. They are all yummy.

Finally my books that I got for christmas, arrived. I wonder why they ship it from Germany when I ordered them from amazon.at. Weird.

I got “Welcome To My Country", “The Bell Jar” and “The Magical World of Harry Potter". The first two in english, the last one in german.

Going reading for a while. My room is so very small, I took that pic from outside the door. O_o The blanket is the coolest thing. I bought it, when Big Brother was totally out, me still in love though. Got lots of BB stuff for an amazing price. The blanket was about 7 Euros. Good deal.

Actually wanted to nap, but remembered that ski jumping would be on very soon. Turned on the TV, and what do I see? TURTLES! A giant turtle. That actually was “Babe in the city".

Have finally managed to repair theme problems on my page. This is me obviously staring at my page. *wink*

Decided to play “The Sims Unleached” for a while. Didn´t want to play for long, but game was very eventful, so I got clued. My Sims had another baby, and my doggie won a pet price.

Nikki giving paw. Such a good doggie.

Preparing everything for the fondue. The meat really did it to me. Almost started to bawl, because of the dead pig on the table. :-/

Tea time! The large cup is mine. *yumm* See the pot behind? Full with rice.

The fireworks drove the dog mad. She went from one place to another, trying to nap.

Brother and me decided to play Darts. With one brake inbetween, around midnight, we played until 3.30 am. Oops.

All of our eyes.

My nightwear. Can´t tolerate it on my skin lately though, nor can I tolerate the bedsheets etc. Hence my weird sleeping patterns. O_o

Happy New Year to everyone reading this! I hope you all had an amazing day. Mine was quiet, a bit boring, but still special.
