Friday December 24,2021

Today has started off on a good start and was kind of laid back and relaxed.

I woke up around 9 am and babe was already up.

We talked and watched a bit of one of our fav Youtubes named ZHC.

He's basically someone who, to make a long story short, uses art to change the world.

Sometimes he just do little bitty art challenges with his art team/friends like the one we were watching today that has them finger painting and sometimes have his friends challenge each other and the winner does like mini challenges and they win money for a subscriber, themselves, family, and more.

In this video, they just won some money for themselves (not like there's anything wrong with that).

Then babe said that his friends were coming and he was going to hangout with them for a bit.

So he got ready and went to go hangout with his friends.

Afterwards, I just wrote in here for a min and called Dad to tell him I was up and ready in case he wanted to do something together.

He said he was in the middle of something and asked if I was by myself? I said babe was hanging out with his friends for a bit but he was off.

The he asked if there was anything I wanted to do? The only thing I wanted to do was get babe's Christmas gift.

Dad said Uncle t wanted to get a gift for his grandson, and I assumed babe wanted to get me a gift too.

So dad said after he's done doing what he's doing, and babe comes back, babe and I can discuss where we want to go and he would come and take us.

So I waited for babe (and around this time it was 1 pm)

I waited for about a hour and texting babe to see if he was coming home yet and he said no.

I got bored and I wanted to get to the stuff before they closed, so I decided to go by myself.

I called Dad and told him my plan, and he said he wanted to come and bring his chilli fritios by the house so we can try some, and said if I needed a ride back from the mall to the house, he would take me.

I took the bus and went to the mall (after I got some change for the bus and had to wait like 15 min for the bus to come)

I walked in the mall and went to this one store called Spencer's (kinda like a gothic store with some other stuff in there) and wanted to get some stuff I thought babe could use on a regular basis.

I knew babe likes weed, so I get babe an ash tray in the shape of a weed leaf, a weed cup that has leaves in the inside of the cup and on the outside that's green and black and some green and black weed leaf that says 'getting high' or something.

I looked at a couple other stores that I liked like 'Hot topic', JCPenny's, Windsor, and a couple other places.

I wanted to get something christmasy for him.

So I went across the street to this place called 'Hobby Lobby' in which kinda has everything there. Art, sewing stuff, scrap booking, spray painting, decorations for the house, etc.

They didn't really have anything 'christmasy' babe would like, so I went to Ross and looked around.

I saw a jacket, a robe, and a top I just happened to see that reminded me of him.

I wanted to go to Target and see if they had anything there.

So I hid the stuff in a hamper thingy in one of the aisles and walked over to target.

They didn't have Christmas clothes or anything, but the only thing I saw that reminded me of him was a lunch box.

I got a card for babe and my Aunty Carol on my dad's side of the family.

I debated about getting the lunch box because I didn't know if he would use it.

So I just got the cards and went back to Ross and got only the shirt and not the jacket and robe because that would've been all my money.

I called dad on my way back to Ross to tell him I was gonna meet babe at the mall.

I told dad before to meet me at Ross, but since babe was at the mall. I had to change the info.

So I went to Ross and got the stuff.

Then I walked back to the mall and met with babe and his friend apparently.

When I was talking to babe earlier, he said he was on his way to meet me.

Didn't tell me he was still with his friend and both of them would meet me at the mall.

So when I got there, you can imagine how surprised I was when I saw him walking in the mall with someone else.

I said hey but mainly talked to babe.

I told babe dad was picking us up until he told me he was catching a ride with his friend.

So once dad came, he and I went back to my place and met babe there.

Dad was setting up the chili for us to try while I was trying to prepare babe's gift and hide it from him so he wouldn't see his gift or see me sign his card.

I was a bit mad at dad because while I was packing up babe's gift, dad walked into my room without asking me, checked the room out while talking about who knows what then walked out.

If that was me, he would've gotten hella mad and gave me a huge lecture about it, it just irritates me.

Anyway, after dad made the chili and left, a little later on in the night, babe came home.

We hungout for a bit then mom came home from work, then babe helped mom set her firestick on the tv and I did my face routine again, the face vacuum again, the face roller and a pore refining gel mask that helps get rid of some of the bad pores and you rinse it off once your done. I took a shower and did the last one and then babe and I started to play the wii after I gave him the gift which he liked.
