Random Fact About Myself #2

I don't have a cell phone.

And I don't really want one either. First of all, I don't have anyone to call. Second of all, I'm never really by myself; so I rely on whoever is with me if I need to make a call. Which comes back to the first point, I don't have anyone to call.

If I were to get a cell phone, I'll probably want something cute. Something like this:
But they're only available in Japan...

Also, if I had a cellphone, I would probably get one of these:

What is it? It's a bed, for your cell phone!! ^-^ In my opinion, it is as unnecessary as it is cute. I read you can also use it with your iPod, or in my case, my Sansa Fuze. See the little slippers? They are screen cleaner. How cool is that?!!!

Also, in another topic. Remember I told you I was watching Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve because I wanted to see the Jonas Brothers and Demi and Taylor? Well, apparently I was on the wrong Channel... How lame is that??

Happy New Year!!!

Before I went to bed, I wanted to wish you a very happy New Year! I hope you had an amazing night. I did. My mom made vegetarian lasagna, and we drank wine. Then we watched "Oliver!", it ended about 30 minutes before 12 AM; so I went upstairs to my room because my mom was already fast asleep and my dad was sleepy.

I watched David Cook at the Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve; but I pretty much only wanted to see the Jonas Brothers, which I obviously missed. I saw the countdown and kissed Pepino when the ball dropped. Then I ate a Jolly Rancher hard candy, because I heard that in order to have good news all year, the first thing you eat should be sweet; so I hope that works.

Right now I'm just sipping my wine and watching Frasier. I have a little Christmas story I want to tell you, but I'll do that later today; the wine is making me sleepy.

This year I wish you health, love, success, happiness, and whatever it is that you most want.

Love,
Klarissa.

Rocking on Christmas Day!!

Sorry I posted about my Christmas until today, but it's just been busy. I hope you had an amazing day and got all the gifts you wanted. I spent the day at my grandma's house. One of my cousins got Rock Band for the Wii, so he brought with him to my grandma's and all the cousins were using it. I played on easy mode, and I did awesome on the guitar; decent on the drums; and pretty much failed on the mic (although I did rock out with "Dirty Little Secret" by the All American Rejects!!)

Christmas day was really fun for me, and I hope it was awesome for you too. It's almost New Year, I cannot believe how fast this year went by; and I can't wait to find out what the next year will bring.

My Christmas Eve

I hope you had an amazing Christmas Eve!!! This year I spent it only with my mom and dad, because my brother is in Mexico. My aunt invited us three to her house (she lives around the corner), but we decided to stay in and have a quiet and peaceful night. Before dinner, my dad and my mom told me stories about their childhood Christmases. I loved that they shared that with me, and it was fun to listen.
My mom was going to cook lasagna (vegetarian for me, yum!), but in the end we ate Chinese food, which I love. My dad let me drink beer, and after dinner, we put on our pajamas and we watched TV in their room. My uncle stopped by to pick up my cousin's new bicycle. They were hiding the bicycle in our garage for a couple of weeks, so that my cousin wouldn't see it; he is 10 years-old and still believes in Santa Claus.
I'm a very calm and quiet person, so this day was perfect for me, but tomorrow we're driving over to my grandma's. I'm happy to see all my uncles, aunts, cousins, and grandma; and every year we have tons of fun. I'm a bit fuzzy about seeing my cousin Sofia. She stayed over at my house, and apparently she doesn't know how to behave and I don't have any patience. So I kept on scolding her, maybe she told my uncle that I was mean to her; and that will cause commotion.

Right now I'm trying to figure out what to wear, I feel like I have nothing :[

Tomorrow I'm going to give my mom her Christmas gift. I got her a makeup brush (she has a horrible one), and a gift card to one of her favorite stores; that way she can get something she truly likes. And, I'm giving her my brother's gift, which she doesn't know about. He gave it to me the day he left, and told me to keep it a secret until the 25th. For the past days she's been like: "Your brother didn't even give me a gift, how mean...", so I can't wait to see her face when she knows about it :]

It is 11:30 now and "Sex and the City" is about to start, and I'll probably watch it tucked under the covers, I need to wake up early tomorrow to pick out an outfit, do my hair, makeup, and open gifts.

Goodnight,
Klarissa.

And the winner is...

Like I said in one of my previous posts, I was thinking of getting a new MP3 player. I made up my mind and I ordered the Sandisk Sansa 8GB. I got it on December 17, a day earlier than expected; which made me happy. It really is a great player. I went to the Sandisk website and downloaded the firmware update and then I transferred my music to the device. I'm very happy with it, it works really well!!
Along with the player came a set of headphones, which I didn't even open. Also a cable to connect to the computer, and a little case to keep the player safe. Basic instructions, Rhapsody installation CD (I didn't even use it), and some more papers.
The videos do play in really good quality, I downloaded the Taylor Swift "Love Story" video, and it looks lovely.
A thing that freaked me out a bit was that it froze on me once. No big deal really, I just had to hold the power button for a little while. But I still love it! And one more thing, the player actually looks way better in real life that in the picture. I would show you guys a picture of it, but my brother took the camera with him...

I'm witting this so late because my cousin is staying over in my house and I didn't have time all day to sit and type in the computer. Right now she is sleeping in my bed, and I'm sitting in the carpet watching "Friends". My other baby cousin came the other day and she brought with her a goodie bag she got at daycare, and she forgot it here when she left. It had some chocolate kisses, a Rice Krispie Treat, and a Hannah Montana doll. I ate all the candy... Oh well, maybe she won't notice :]

Goodnight,
Klarissa.

"When you're gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you..."

Today my brother left and went on a trip to Mexico to see his girlfriend. I'm happy for him and I know he'll have tons of fun, but we're going to miss him a lot. It just makes me think that we are growing up fast (or at least he is), even though he is only 19. The fact that he will not be spending Christmas and New Year with us is kind of a sign of it. But anyways, him leaving reminded me of one of my favorite songs: "When You're Gone" by Avril Lavigne.



I think at this time he is still in the bus, but I hope that he is doing good. :]
