Well, it's almost time for national turkey genocide day. Traditionally, my family makes dinner, usually at my house or at one of my sisters' houses. This year is different, though! This year, my mom and dad have decided that we do not need the amount of food Thanksgiving generally generates, so they decided that instead of the mess and hassle, we are going out to a fancy restaurant so we can all get something we like to eat and not have all the leftovers that end up getting throw away anyway. I'm quite pleased with the idea, actually, but my oldest sister is not. She is the sort of person that most normal people want to smack because she has the habit of ignoring problems for the sake of things being 'pleasant' so you can image how distraught her was when she found out that there will be no 'family bonding' and 'traditional dinner' for Thanksgiving. My middle sister is all for it, because then we don't have to deal with her ex-in-laws, who happen to be my oldest sister's in-laws too. See, this is the problem when a set of siblings marry another set of siblings. I'm just happy because I get to be done with this usually brutal holiday where all my family does is fight and someone always ends up in tears (usually me). Boyfriend will be with his family, separately, just like every year. I am glad for our agreement.
On another note, I saw HP:DH. I was SO fucking happy with it, despite it being the most depressing piece of film I have seen in ages! I liked it even better then the book. It was just so compelling and you could really see the growth of the actors in this film compared to the first. I will be so sad when it is over, no to mention bawling my fucking eyes out when I lose my mind when Fred dies. My friend Quin and I already have agreement to bring flasks and a box of tissues. We will need it when we lose it and start crying uncontrollably.
On yet another note, we are nearing the end of the semester and I am a little scared of my math grade. I have no idea what is going on in this class and I think I am going to have to sit down and ask him to help me so I can boost my grade with the final. Crossing my fingers! I am confident in my other classes, so I think I will be fine with those. For my personal work, I am determined to finish my Supernatural series by winter break and am going to start work on my own website as well as redesigning my dad's website. I really need to start making portfolio pieces for myself to bulk up my portfolio so I am going to do yet another version of my corporate identity as well as redesign the Pandora poster, and redo some other projects and maybe get to work on some ideas for screen printing work. Yay, I have a plan!
