An Announcement

Hello, fellow Hoodians! Today I have a bittersweet announcement. No, I'm not quitting my blogs. Instead, I think, I'm expanding them slightly. I will be leaving this blog and moving to another wordpress site. I didn't really enjoy blogging on this site, and I was really liking how the worpdress platform worked for me on my other blog. So, I present...


Donuts and Daydreams

I hope you're just as excited as I am! You can visit my new site here.
I'm super glad to have started my blogging journey on this site. I've been writing posts here for two years. It was amazing, and I hope to keep growing on my new blog.

What I Got For Christmas



Hello fellow Hoodians! Merry Christmas! I hope your day has been wonderful! Mine definitely has. My family woke up at 7:30 to open gifts, and then we had an amazing breakfast that my dad cooked.  I personally love reading what people get for birthdays or Christmas, so I thought I might show you what I got! :)

 *Please keep in mind that I'm not trying to show off



Starting with my stocking, my mom got my siblings all a pack of wafers, three packs of gum, and four Ferrero Rocheres. I really love wafers and gum, so this was great for me. Though all of my gum will probably be gone in a week because I chew it A LOT. XD



Behold, even more gum! My little brother bought me three packs of gum, so this is seriously the best thing he's ever gotten me. I am thriving off a gum. XD



Apologies for the horrible editing. My lighting was being mean, as well as the computer. -_- Anyways, my amazing grandma got me a load of candy as well as a gift card (though I'm not really certain how much is on the gift card). I'm super thankful for that. :)




Now, onto the things that aren't edible. XD I got Zig Millennium pens. These pens have a super fine tip which is great for my artwork, so I'm super exited to put these to use. :D




Next,  I got a new journal! I'm really happy about this because I've almost filled up my current journal. Plus, it's super aesthetic with the pretty tree and ajhsafl. When I started unwrapping it, it said "Flammable. To keep from catching fire, see guide." I was so confused at what it was at what it was by that point. XD OH OH OH, I forgot about this, but when I run out of paper, I can remove the cover and slip in a new notebook. How awesome is that?



IT'S SO PRETTY AND I CAN'T EVEN. ahem. In case you aren't sure, this is a stylus that I can use to draw digital art with. I'm super excited, because my older brother has a different model of the same pen, and I used to borrow his all the time. But now I have my own! I'm so excited to create new drawings with it! :D



Finally, I got a super fuzzy and silky and soft blanket with POM POMS ON THE ENDS!!! Like, how much more amazing could this blanket be (?).

My grandma also gave my family a chair hammock thingie for Christmas, which is super awesome, because we don't have anything really comfortable to sit on in our porch at the moment. The sad thing is that my dad won't be able to put it up for a while. :/

I'm really thankful for everything I got this year, and I'm super happy to be able to experience the joy of Christmas.

I hope y'all had a wonderful Christmas day! I would love to hear about what you got.

P.S. I have a HUGE surprise coming up at the end of the month, so keep your eyes peeled. ;)
