i never thought it would be so difficult putting a gingerbread house together.

the gingerbread is soo thin and flimsy. it falls apart the moment you lift it. so we had to fix it in a zillion places with meltd sugar and verytime we put it together another part will break. and it didn't exactly hlp that olli had the most ungentle touch i've ever heard of! after she reached the same conclusion i did she decided to go watch tv and the house was assmebled only after breaking in 10 other places and throwing one piece away after it refused to stick. it looked really awful and i was miserable because i thought i'd destroyed the whole thing but after we iced it and threw m&ms and sprinkles all over it it looked totally gorgeous and i'm soooo proud of our creation! (: the icing looks alot like snow! bc there wasn't enough icing sugar in it. if i ever take a photo of it i'll post it up! so everyone can admire it! hahaha. oh and oli burnt her finger just once and she kept soaking her finger in ice and all that. what a weenie. not that it wasn't painful.. but it got really annoying when she kept making that noise. (you make the noise like this. you push your tongue against the top of your mouth, clamp your teeth together and suck in air) not like i wasn't burnt.i now have two big blisters on my fingers.but i didn't even go to the extent of putting a plaster!! really! how would a plaster help. honestly. hahahaha. but oli is a fantastic baker. she came up with this huge bowl of cookies with beanie and gingko which taste fabulous! yumm.

i feel really guilty now. i ate all the remaining m&ms (except for the brown ones. they make me feel unhappy for some reason) i shld have left them for dad. since he loves chocolates so much but what did i do? i ate them all! except the brown ones. but i bet olli ate all of them. i'm starting to become olli-ish!!! this is not gd. crapp. ohwell. rachellee don't rub it in.

auntybridget want to buy my old violin! so i took it out to test. it's STILL in tune! isn't that amazing? i mean like, i didn't touch it for at least 3 years now. and after cleaning the mould off i still could play twinkle twinkle little star, the first noel and father abraham! yayy!

okay. the violin makes me feel bad agn. because i begged mom to let me learn it and it was really expensive but in the end i didn't play it much and i'm a pathetic player.

bleahh!
