sigh ... another holiday...

It's the Thanksgiving weekend! Hooray! :D Altho I know I should be celebrating, for some reason I'm not feeling too happy about it. Maybe its because all my friends have "plans" to spend time with their boyfriend or girlfriend, and with their family.

Conversations over MSN seem to follow a familiar line...

them: how's the job hunt?
me: oh, the same. whatcha up to tonite?
them: thanksgiving dinner with my boyfriend/girlfriend's family... how about you? OR we're going to {insert far-away destination here} for the weekend! how about you?
me: nothing.
them: any plans for the weekend?
me: um, no. my family's in toronto. i have thanksgiving dinner with my boyfriend's family on Monday tho.
them: toronto? that must be hard.
me: yah... some holidays are harder than others...

I guess I miss my family. I miss my mom lots, but only when we get along =b i miss her more when I go shopping, or when I go to the gym. I would love to drag my mom to the gym with me for a workout :) I wanted to take a cooking class at the Cookshop. It would have been nice to do that with my mom.

I miss my dad too cause theres so much that I'd like to learn from him. Like flower arranging =b and learning more about fixing up the car by myself. I would have LOVED to go go-karting again in Whitby. That was so much fun! :D

I miss my brother even tho he used to make fun of me all the time when we were younger. I think we're close but its probably not so noticeable to other people. I don't think we *act* like we're really close tho... which is kinda weird, I think.

So what am I trying to say? Treasure the time you have with your family, no matter how annoying they can be. :)
