HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
I've dicided to share some things that I can't wait for in the year (in no particular order):
Turning 15 in March - Only one more year and I can buy InuYasha and other older teen rated manga!!
Finishing the Twilight series - I read the first one alreday and can't wait to read the rest of them...but I want to finish my library books first.
OHAYOCON - Need I say more? Vic Mignogna and Aaron Dismuke are gonna be there again!
Summer - Seriously, I need some more sleep than what I'm getting on the weekends
To Actually FINISH something - I have two fanfictions on FanFiction.net that I haven't updated in AGES and two other original stories that I'm working on that I really want to finish.
Okay, that's all I got for now...sayonara!

Christmas Update
Hey guys -
Hope everyone had a good holiday. I know what you're thinking: "Alli, it's 2 AM! Why aren't you sleeping???" Well, first off, after this, I'm going to bed. Second off, Dad and I were trying to connect to the internet on my new LAPTOP!! A laptop!!! EEEEEEEEP!!! Originally, I asked for money to buy myself a laptop, but I just got one for Christmas instead...I swear, I'm STILL in shock!
As for my otaku side, I now own InuYasha seasons 1, 2, 3 and 6! Now all I need is 4 & 5! Plus, I got the Bleach movie, and believe it or not, Jess said she'd watch it if we get bored (she's sleeping over on Monday...I'll post pics, I promise).
In other news: Squirt finally got her Wii, OhayoCon is looking dim (I only got $25 dollars...but hey, laptop is better), and It's 2 AM and I gotta go.
Don't kill me Ma; We finally figured it out around midnight. Plus, you know that I lose track of time ;^).

Christmas Stuff, Part Three
Bad Remakes of Great Songs - I swear to god I heard two rmakes of Elvis Presley's "Blue Christmas" that made me want to puke. Seriously people, can we just leave The King's songs alone? (Yes, I'm talking to YOU Martina McBride!)
Nativities That Aren't Set Up Right - Of the fourteen years that I've been alive, I always saw Mary ON THE LEFT, not the right.
Shopping - Need I say more? I just HATE shopping alltogether.
People Who Spell Your Name Wrong on Cards - Seriously people, my name isn't hard to remember! A-L-L-I. No "E", no "Y" and TWO "L's"!!
Singing Along to the Radio - And people wonder why I always have my iPod. Well, that's why.
"It's Too Expensive" - $30 can't be THAT expensive!
Opening the Same Gift First Every Year - Wow. More underpants. Thanks. Ugh.
Same Christmas Specials - Santa Claus is Coming to Town is really starting to get on my nerves.
Lifetime - Seriously Mom, isn't there anything else on?
Wrapping Presents - "Smokey, get AWAY from the RIBBON!"

Christmas Stuff, Part Two
Can't be Christmas without Christmas Concerts!
So first up was Squirt's. I will admit that for a bunch of 5th graders, they weren't really that bad. Better than my band in elementary school, I will say! Afterwards, Mom took this nice pic of us.

Then we had our concert on Monday, which really turned out well. I would post the video that I took before the concert, but of course, somebody HAD to cuss, so I had to delete it off my camera so Mom wouldn't get mad.

Here's a nice pic of my friends John and Mary. Currently, they both get straight A+'s (WHOA), and so their considered "rivals"...but they only say that to pick on each other, like me and Cody do.
So I'm not sure if I'll be able to fit another post in before Christmas. If I do, that's great, but if I don't, I'll do it afterwards.
