Kayso. You know I was grounded, methinks Sagey told you why. If not, it was the most typical teenager thing.
I wasn't allowed to go to this party thing and I went anyways and came back too late and this whole screwy thing happened.
I'm back for...a few hours or so. I'll definitely be "more back" in early Jan. And [almost] completely back mid Jan.
So, yeah. This was just to explain stuff to you, 'cause it's not fair that Sagey knows the facts and the rest of you don't. Eh heh heh.
Ooh! It's my Gaianiversary month, yay. I forgot what day I joined, so I just celebrate all of December. xd It's my fourth year. :3
So. Tell me how your holidays have been and what you've done and all that.
I went to two posadas! One was at my abues house, so I got to help organize and pass out the candles and candies and fruit and stuff, and I got to hang one of the pinñatas. The other one was at my abues nephews house, which was fun, too. [If you'd like me to explain exactly what a posada is, just ask. I dunno if you all know what it is, so...]
And on Christmas Eve, I overdosed on garlic and got uber sick. Like my sister said, "it was coming out of both ends." xDD I'm so gross, sorry.

YAY! WELCOME BAAAAAAAAK! I missed you! I'm sure we all did. heart It's to bad about getting grounded. Was the party worth it? wink I wish I had parties to sneak out to...
Happy Gaiaversersary! Your fourth, wow.
I'm sure you saw that whole secret gifter thing, and saw that it turned out to be Volly. It's pretty funny how we all thought it was you for so long. It's to bad you couldn't be there. sad
My Christmas was good. Got lots of stuff, got to spend time with the family... but things have changed a lot. It was kind of depressing because it didn't feel like it did when I was a kid.
But yeah, what is a posada? confused Anyway, I'm glad you had fun, and I'm glad your back!

Happy Gaiaversary, Shinny. 3nodding My first Gaiaversary is coming up March 14th.
And I'm glad you had a good holiday. What's a posada? -interested-
And my holidays were... fairly boring, actually. I got alot of clothes and little trinkets.
And while I was at my dad's mom's house, me and my cousin got into this huge fight over the Wii. And there were twenty six people crammed into one kitchen to eat. And the cousin I was arguing with purposely ran into me and I dropped my plate and food on the floor.
:/ Yeah. But other than that, it was fine. My friend got an XBox 360. And he's gonna have me over to play it with him. :3

Shinny! *huggles* Welcome back! Did you just go and lawlerskate after reading the whole thread about the Mystery Gifter. That was pretty fun. Wish you could've been there. :c
And sneaking out to go to a party? Naughty, naughty, naughty! D:< 40 lashings for you! *lashes*
Nah, s'okay. I went to a party on Friday, but I didn't sneak out. *glares* Nah, jkjk. c:
What does posada mean? And abues? I'm taking German not Spanish...>.> Aber, sprichst du Deutsch? o3o
'Nways, it's nice to see you back.
My 3rd Gaiaversary was this past Halloween. My profile says I joined sometime in early June, but I got this account from a friend who used it as a mule. And I didn't get it until Halloween. So that's my weird thang... And Happy 4th Gaiaversary to you! c:
My holidays went pretty awesome, I must say. I'm wearing some really really kewt panda PJs that I got, and I also got a digital camera, a new mp3 player (my old one broke), and The Simpsons Movie on DVD. :} I also got other things, like money and new hair stuff and jewelry, but those four items were like, prolly the best. ^.^ Oh, and this really kewt jacket, might have to take a picture of that for all to see...of course, my camera's memory card is full after nine pictures. D: Something's wrong with that. >.> So I'll probably ask mother if she could take me to the store to ask for help...'cause I need it.

Aw, we miss you Shindig! xO
If anyone had a question, I told them o.o; But the only reason people asked was because we suspected you to be the Anonymous Benefactor (because people were like: Is she -really- grounded?) so I told them why you were grounded, but I guess not everyone read it sweatdrop

@spinnie: it was...kinda worth it. in some ways. xD i know what you mean about christmas not being the same. i miss the whole santa claus magic so much. but it's fun to make the magic with my little cousin.
@grinny: ty, i'll have to remember the date. wink heh, my cousin got an xbox and he and my other cousin kinda fought over it.
@cap'n kat: ^.^
@nerdie: i was laughing my head off. especially when somebody [might have been toxic] said something like "wouldn't it be funny if shinny was really grounded and had no idea that this was going on?" i laughed so hard.
sad lashes?! -cowers-
your christmas sounds awesome. heh, my very first camera wouldn't turn on, my dad had to trade it in. xD
@taka: i'll take you in my purse next time i go to a party xD -smothers back-
video camera? -wantwantwant-
@breathy: thankies ^.^
i have witnessed changed. but i still think the worst is the whole 2% thing. oh, well. xD
@sagey: i missed you, too.
heh, i saw that. somebody said that the whole party thing didn't sound like something i would do xDD
@vollie: i missed you, tooooo <3333

oh, forgot to say this before.
to all who asked:
a posada is a mexican christmas tradition. there are supposed to be nine of them, but my family only does three or four.
it starts with this kind of reenactment of when joseph and mary ask to stay in the house so she can have the baby. theres a song and stuff.
then, if it's a religious posada, there's praying and stuff.
after that, the host pass around little bags or baskets with candy, called colacion.
then you go outside and split open a couple piñatas.
after, the host passes around bags of fruit.
then you eat some kind of traditional mexican food [tamales, enchiladas, etc.]
then people just sit around and talk and then they go home.
oh! and "abue" is short for abuelo or abuela, which mean grandfather and grandmother, respectively.
when i say abue, i mean my abuelo.
