Today I had a sudden urge to decorate our rooms for the holidays. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I have had the impulse. The complete lack of decorations and money generally stands in the way, and forces me to get creative if I ever want to achieve my dream. Halloween was pathetic. I ended up coloring the window with expo markers. My mom decided to visit me in my hour of shame. She pitied me and bought us a vampire window cling. Now that Christmas is approaching, my pride is at stake. I frantically dug through the boxes that were left packed. I found Christmas tree ornaments, bright green ribbon, and.........absolutely nothing else. No tree, no garlands, no Christmas cards, pictures, or wrapping paper. In a pathetic attempt to redeem myself, I slid the ornaments on the ribbon and squinted until it looked remotely like a garland. Later, I found a mini snowman. He now lives in our bathroom. You can make your own conclusions, but in the meantime, I will tell you what I have come up with:
1. Christmas decorations don't count unless you take down the Halloween ones first
2. Living on your own brings a whole new side of creativity.....in a really sad way
3. Even snowmen have a perverted side
