Really cute idea for a thread! I'm smiling because today Ryan and I are celebrating Christmas Eve. We wont be together on Christmas, our family's travel plans did not align well. So we're pretending that tomorrow is Christmas. Tonight, 'Christmas Eve', we're getting pizza and watching Christmas movies, and tomorrow morning we'll wake up and pretend it's Christmas morning and open our presents. Then we'll cook a big breakfast. Later in the day he's making a big Christmas dinner. Next friday we're leaving for Michigan for two weeks. I had decorated our apartment some, but not a lot. This is our first Christmas living together. And the main reason I am smiling so big is that last night Ryan went out to finish Christmas shopping for me. He came home and made me go in the bedroom while he wrapped presents. An hour later, he came and got me and asked me to help with something. When I got to the living room I was so surprised! He bought us a Christmas tree and set it up! He had lights on it and he bought ornaments and wanted us to decorate it together. It was so sweet and amazing.

I'm sort of gonna do the same with my sister, we're getting together the weekend of Jan. 26-27 to celebrate Christmas, and then the weekend of Feb. 16-17, I'm gonna celebrate the New Year with one of my friends, lol! And today I'm smiling because we've got our office Christmas party tonight! ;D

First of all: great new thread! And Jobean, I can't believe that it's already summer at your place... Why am I smiling today?* Because I had to go to Amsterdam today for school with the train by myself and I got there on time and got back on time. I had to go with 3 trains in the morning, and 3 trains to get back. And I didn't miss one of them! * Because I have amazing friends and an amazing grandpa who care enough about me to text, call and email me while I was traveling to find out if I'm ok. * Because Adrian Plass writes too hilarious books * Because I have an amazing and a very funny teacher

I'm smiling because my cousin got stuck in Detroit trying to get to New Hampshire yesterday (lots of snow there) so I got to spend the evening with her and then we are going to lunch today and shopping before I drive her to the airport. I hardly ever get to see her. It was a wonderful surprise visit.
And I finished an exam yesterday!
And I convinced one of my friends to start reading Harry Potter and he just finished the first book and loves it and that makes me happy!

It was really cold, but when it's a little bit colder, we could have snow! I would really like to go iceskating on natural ice; I live almost next to a big lake, we have a park with water, and maybe we can even go iceskating on the river (Kanalen, but I've no idea how to translate them...)! I can't wait!

I'm smiling because I found a site where you can play the original Lemmings game for free (http://www.elizium.nu/scripts/lemmings/) and it is a great distraction and brings back memories of my childhood and our first computer (an apple LCII).

Ah Lemmings! I was addicted to that as a child I smile because: * Christmas makes me happy * Tomorrow I will see a lot of friends * There are christmas-songs on the radio right now
