Its finally Christmas Day. I woke up at a reasonable time but still kind of early because I was just so excited. I'm not normally that excited for Christmas but for some reason this year it just seems so magical with leaving for Italy tomorrow and the snow that has been out for the past few days.

I drew the curtains of my room to see snowflakes falling quickly down towards the ground which by now was fully covered in the cold stuff. I ran straight downstairs and straight outside to take a pictures of myself in the snow and film a TikTok because thats what other members of the smp have done and I wanted to join in. I sent one of the pictures of me to Tommy with a Merry Christmas message which got a response almost right away with a picture of him sat by a Christmas tree. I smiled at the picture excited to see Tommy again in person.

I went back inside to see my parents awake now, they were making toast for breakfast which I offered to help with but they said they didn't need it. I sat down on the floor by the Christmas tree which was decorated so nicely and all the lights were on making it feel so cozy in the room.

I remember the day we decorated the tree right at the start of December it was a great day there was music blasting through the house as my parents decorated other parts of the house I did the tree with Tommy on FaceTime to tell me where baubles were needed.

And now it's Christmas Day and that same tree is the feature of the room but now it has presents of all different shapes and sizes with various different wrapping papers under it. I was taken out of my own world when I was handed a plate of toast which I happily ate while soft Christmas music played in the background.

On Christmas my family always invites my Nan round for the day so all of us went to get ready to go and pick her up and bring her back so we can start our festivities. I looked through my wardrobe for something to wear when I found a cute knit red jumper which I paired with some jeans and a black belt. I didn't put on any makeup and left my hair down because it was a casual day and I didn't want to get too dressed up.

My parents left to pick my Nan up and I was left in charge of preparing some things for dinner which is my least favourite thing to do but I did it anyway. I hate knives I'm so scared of them like its so easy to cut yourself which I have done on a few occasions but not today I'm going to be extra careful.

Spoke too soon I slightly cut my finger and panicked, I flailed around for a minute before finding a plaster and putting it over my cut. I knew that I wasn't going to post much today so I took a pic and posted it on twitter saying Christmas fail. A few people responded including Tommy and Toby.

Why are you like this

I liked their tweets just as my parents came through the door, I ran to greet my Nan because we got on really well and have for years. My Nan helped raise me while my parents were at work so we have a great bond and thats why I love having her round on Christmas the family feels complete then.

We started off the festivities by opening presents all of the presents I got for people I wrapped last night along with all my gifts for everyone going on the trip. Everyone opened their gifts and loved them, I got a few things for skiing as well as some stuff for school that I needed. I told them to not get me anything because there was nothing I really wanted and now that I've been making good money streaming I wanted to do something nice for them.

We continued the day by playing board games and watching Christmas films like we always do, I never think about people doing things differently and that all of this is our own traditions, as I've grown up these traditions have modified a little because now that I'm older I can help with preparing the dinner and we can play games that require higher intelligence and a longer attention span but overall I have never experienced a Christmas any different.

All of that changes this year because this year I leave on Boxing Day to go to Italy whereas normally I would be visiting other family members who I would prefer not to see but now I don't have to.

When it got to the evening it was time to boil the vegetables and start on the potatoes which I wasn't allowed to do after cutting myself this morning. I was allowed to help with preparing everything else and setting up the table which was very much manageable and didn't lend itself to injury.

We enjoyed dinner before my parents took my Nan home, while they were gone I packed my bags ready to leave tomorrow. It was much harder than it looked because I had a lot of presents to take with me as well as skiing gear and regular clothes which I had to strategically put in my suitcase which was as big as me. I had to sit on it to do the zip up but it worked and it didn't weigh over the amount I was allowed so it was a complete success.

My parents arrived home and we cleaned up the house before I went to bed despite it only being about 9pm because I had to get up early in the morning to go to the airport. Wait I get to see Tommy again tomorrow morning and I get to meet a bunch of new people. Dream and Sapnap had decided to come in the end so there was going to be even more of us (be prepared this is going to be chaotic)

I honestly think we may break twitter if we post pictures all together because its like a whole smp meetup just missing a few people it's going to be insane and probably incredibly chaotic if we ever try to do anything all together.

Now I'm excited and can't sleep I'm trying my hardest but its just not happening there is too much going on in my brain that won't allow me to rest. Tommy must be having the same problem because my phone started ringing at round 2am with a FaceTime call, I answered it with all the light in my room off so you could just barely see the outline of my face and the same went for Tommy.

"I'm guessing you can't sleep either" I said

"Nope I'm just too excited to see you and everyone else I've missed everyone so much" he said

"Me too I also can't wait to see Italy I really hope its a beautiful as they say it is" I said

"Me too I hope it lives up to everything that you imagine" he said

I smiled despite him not being able to see it. We talked for about an hour or so until we both fell asleep for the few hours we had until out alarms went off telling us we had to get up and leave.

Authors note- the next few parts are going to be the last ones I'm not entirely sure how may there will be but at least 3 more also I apologise for how chaotic the next parts will be but please bare with me and ignore any holes in the plot I guarantee I will be trying my best.
