Still no for me =[

xmas is so lame here. Every year my mom will preface her statement by explaining that she's not born in North America and therefore not good at buying presents (wtf #1) and then says something lame like "we raised you and paid for your shelter/food for the last 18 years that's good enough right? (wtf #2). Same shit happens for my birthday too (wtf #3), which tilts me a little because I never get anything for putting up with the shit she gives me (not physical shit, shit like yelling at me and whatever). I won't lie, I get a little jealous this year because I always see all these awesome presents everyone else gets and how thoughtful their gifts are and how thoughtful they are when buying gifts. It makes me a little sad, to be honest.

It's still not Christmas here. But it's not like any other day at my house, so whatever.

I know =]
It's also the togetherness and what not that our family lacks, so that's where a little of the sadness is, too =[
I'm happy for my friends when I see them get what they want, just a little envious is all.
So have a merry Christmas, everyone!

My family celebrates Christmas 100% standard except we don't buy each other presents, stopped six years ago when I was 14. It's just too big a hassle to buy gifts imo. But yeah, it's a really weird reason... like you should be grateful she didn't abandon you or what that does she mean, WTF? I feel for you man.

Your biggest gift is that you still have a mom to love, sure presents are nice but don't blame her for that. You'll realise in a few years what really matter.

Odds are exactly 50%, either happens or it doesnt
