Quirk.: too soon?

Something monumental happened yesterday. Usually it happens after Thanksgiving for most people but for me it's not so scheduled... it just happens. It's official. I'm in the Christmas music mood now. There's a radio station up here that starts playing Christmas music November first, right after Halloween. I listened to it a little when I drove to school but it never... eh got to me. But yesterday I turned the radio on and that's all I've been listening to since (well except for the Twilight CD I got today. SHAME.) Also, the radio plays too many sappy, lovey-dovey and sad Christmas songs that I just have to switch over to a random CD because I can't stand them anymore. You know? Like the one about the kid going to the store to buy his dying mother shoes but he doesn't have enough money. Goodness. I can't take it. 1. Because they play it way too much and I could sing the whole song to you right now and 2. It's reallyyyy sad and I like Christmas because it's a happy time of the year not sad and heart breaking.

Anyway, since i"m in the Christmas music mood now, I made my Christmas list today. What distinguishes 18 year old's Christmas lists from 10 year old's, you might wonder? It's not that there is less things on it, well maybe for a humble and selfless person but not for me. I think I have more things on my list than I did when I was ten. But what really distinguishes them is that every item is super expensive. I mean some toys can be expensive like Lego's. Oh, I love me some Lego's. I almost was going to major in architecture because of them. But I know most of these things I'm going to use a lot and for a long time (unlike toys.) So it's OK if I want these things. It's OK. So, just to make it easier for people to get me the stuff that I want, I'm putting my list up here. And it's pretty organized I even put websites so you know exactly what it is. OK, so make sure you coordinate with every one so some of you don't get me the same thing. That would be... awkward. Haha. This is a good plan. I know. And of course Santa will bring me some of these things too.
