Hi hi, got home from Nebraska very late last night and am still not entirely coherent. Meaning it's list time! Things I did in Nebraska:

1.) Ate lots of chocolate chip cookies
2.) Got thoroughly creeped out by this doll in my bedroom
3.) Tried very very hard to avoid drama with grandparents by not replying to controversial topics and smiling at their backhanded compliments
4.) Stopped trying to avoid drama with grandparents when they referred to one man as "that Mexican" and another as "a negro". And oh yes also when they said Kiki was a childish name.
5.) Read two novels
6.) Felt as if my brain was melting from boredom and lack of activity
7.) Witnessed sub-zero temperatures for about three minutes to show the vibrant social scene of the town
8.) Slept a total of 25 hours in 6 days

And now that I'm home, I'm going to:
1.) Make a bunch of hairbows
2.) Watch Matilda
3.) Bake cupcakes
4.) Not think about school tomorrow

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
