    I kinda' did.

    Well lets start it off with the new Pokemon game I got (Alpha Saphire). So I was very hyped to play and expierence my childhood once more So as I was turning on my 3DS, my sister walked by and asked me what I was playing. I told her and she asked if she could play. Reluctantly, I said ok handing her my 3DS.

    After that I decided to try out my wireless headphones, I planned on using them for gaming because my old headphones had broke. But luck was not with me, because my computer did not have a bluetooth drive to detect the headphones... Well what a bummer.

    Off to steam with my gift card then. I decided to spend 20$ on Team Fortress 2 in steam. For those who don't know, TF2 is a hat simulator. I was going to but guess what? I had to have a purchase that was at least 30 days old to access and buy stuff on the market. How nice. I don't want to wait for another month so I just transfered the money to a friend.

    At least I had one thing to look forward to. Not.

    So at last I decided to install Assassin's Creed: Unity. I adore that game series, I have Assassin hoodies, and even a hidden blade replica. So after four hours of installation, I opened it up to be greeted by nothing more than game FPS lag. I tried everything to lower down the lag, turning down graphics to the minimum, patches, but nothing worked! I asked in an online forum stating my computer build. The people in the forum said my computer wasn't fit to run Unity. They said I had to buy a new fancy graphics card that was really expensive. Well ok then.

    I feel pretty down right now, anyone else have a similar experience?

    I got sick on Christmas but it was mkay. You should try to be more positive, though. If you just think of the negatives, ofc it's going to seem pretty disappointing.

    At least you didn't have to spend it in the hospital like my dad did when he was a kid

    Assassins Creed Unity is still pretty glitched up, even when I play it. I had the worst christmas too, and right now the Ps4 in my house is hacked for everyone. Thanks, life.

    Nah. I mean... it's not the same as Christmas when I was a kid, but my Christmas turned out pretty well...

    I was supposed to work until 3am on Christmas morning, but it was quiet so they let me go at midnight on Christmas Eve. Which means I got to drive the hour in the fog going 60 instead of 90... because of the fog... at 1am instead of 4am like I would have been.

    I got the chance to scream "Merry Christmas Dad!" When I drove past the cemetery... and yes... I screamed it loudly... cause that would help him hear it. Lmao. Which felt awesome, because the last few years I haven't been to visit him on Christmas.

    I actually got 3 hours of sleep before I had to get up for Christmas, which rocked because I hadn't been expecting to get any. My mother got me some coins I didn't have for my collection. We went out to my sister's and I wasn't completely jealous that I couldn't eat our traditional Christmas breakfast, especially since my sister made me my own special, allergy free muffins. My niece was a bit cranky because she's teething, but my nephews were like little angels all morning. And I got some neat appliances for the new apartment I don't actually have yet. XD

    We headed out to my aunt's for lunch, at which point I got a headache from lack of sleep, and I was a little fussed over the cheesecake I couldn't eat, but I could have the ham and it was delicious. I spent most of time fixing the old Nintendo 64 for my little cousin cause he can't work the old tech. lol But I got to hold my cousin's new baby for a bit.

    Despite being exhausted, I didn't fall asleep until 5am on boxing day. XD

    So... as per usual, the holiday season had it's ups and downs, but all in all... it was pretty good as Christmas goes. I've certainly had worse Christmases...
