So It's Christmas morning, and it's like it is every year. Me, Dylan, and Ryan wake up at four a.m. just to wait until eight o' clock when my mom wakes up, to wait until nine when my dad wakes up so we can open presents. I ended up getting a flat-screen tv, a new cell phone(That was pink. YUCK!), a new Wii, a few Xbox games, and a few other things. While my brothers were opening their presents I was texting Alex.

Merry Christmas beautiful(:  It took her a while to even figure out who it was. But after that was established the non-stop texting began again..

After we were all done I managed to get upstairs with all my presents, while simultaneously stilltexting Alex. We were texting about tomorrow, which I was so excited about! She was saying how excited she was too. 

I'm waiting for this day to be over! There will lots of other Christmas's. There just happens to be something more important waiting for me in 24 hours. 

To pass the time, I started to read one of the books my mom got me. It's part of the House of Night series that I LOVE! But I may have gotten distracted by the texts of a very beautiful lady..

I smiled to myself and returned to my book. When I noticed it was already nine o' clock and I was almost done with this book. Wow I am such a nerd when it comes to books. But this series is so good! I was starting to get tired so I started to get ready for bed. 

As I was getting ready to bed I started getting more anxious by the minute. We already planned to go to the mall to hang out and watch a movie with my two brothers and my older cousin so we still wouldn't be alone. But I kept my faith in how tomorrow is going to play out. I just know that tomorrow is going to be great!

I did my nightly routine, (which now includes texting Alex good night with it now!) and hopped into bed. Another night I go to sleep with a smile on my face.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The next morning, or should I say afternoon, I woke up. I felt like crap until I realized what today was! So I took a shower, got dressed in the cutest clothes I could find. My cousin came into my room.

"You look cute, but do you know what you need? Make-up." Wait what? I've never worn make-up before..

"Ummm, sure but not too much." I've never really needed make-up before. I look just fine without it. But today is pretty special so I can make an exception. 

After I was ready my cousin told me the plan for the day. When we were all done getting ready we are going to go pick up Alex, go to the mall to eat and hang out, then go see a movie. 

As we were leaving I yelled out to my mom that we were leaving, and then we were off! Alex textedme directions which she lived on the other side of my street, so it would only take five minutes. The more closer we got the more I could feel my heart accelerating. I was so excited, nervous, scared, and happy. I was filled with so many emotions that I felt like I was going to explode!

When my cousin pulled the car into her driveway she came right out. It made me smile thinking that she was just as excited as I was. I was sitting in the front so I didn't get to sit next to her this time, but I didn't care! We were in the same car!

The car ride to the mall was pretty cool, my cousin was asking Alex questions about her and we were all having fun conversations. Making fun of people in the other cars, making corny jokes, or the usual dumb stuff that me and my family talks and jokes about.

After that adventure, we pulled up into the mall parking lot. We parked near the front so we could go get something to eat. The mall was like any other mall; it was indoors, those tacky food stores that only show up at malls, lots of stores(one of them involving Hollister! But unfortunately no Hot Topic), and a movie theater. When we walked inside I realized that because of my excitement I wasn't hungry so I just went to get some Starbucks. I got my usual a double chocolaty chip frappichino(My favorite!!!). We all sat down and everyone ate. We decided to get our tickets early just incase. We all decided on It's complicated. I've been wanting to see this movie for forever!
