Who needs a Christmas tree when you’ve got me?

I usually go for sticking some tinsel up my pants and saying I’ve got a tail, but this year I wanted to be as shiny as the tree and what wouldn’t a father do for their daughter?

One of the few good things that come with having split parents is celebrating Christmas twice. Although as I think if it now, it’s more sad than fun actually. Like a constant reminder that you’ll never have a big, loving family to sit in front of the fireplace and sing carols with. But making myself sad wasn’t the point of writing this post, therefore I should stop here.

Typically, I took a picture of the tree before we decorated it, but forgot to take one after. I’ve got a thing for B&W Christmas photography. It tones the tackiness down a little.

Here’s my brother, showing off his (non alcoholic, of course) beer. Proud midget. DSC_1592

We had a not very traditional dinner and what’s  a decorated tree without a cheesy family portrait beside it?

I need to go now for my house is getting filled by relatives and people I had no idea I’m related to, but that’s ok. It’s Christmas. They’d better not touch my cake, though.

Half of my Christmas

Me and Daddy

For some time now, Christmas had a rough start for me. Last year I got in a huge fight with dad while we were doing the tree, whereas this year has been no different: on the 22nd, when I was at my dad’s place doing the tree, my mom started ~cleaning~ my room, aka throwing away everything she thought of as useless. Apparently, all the pamphlets I collected during my trips to Japan were labelled as useless and so did the amplifying wire the bassist from Guild gave me when I was to their live :(

Pretty globes~

But it ended up as a beautiful Christmas. I wasn’t mad on my mom in the first place, I was just really sad I lost all those precious items.

Unfortunately my Canon’s lens was broken so I only managed to take photos of half of my Christmas, as the title says, at my dad’s place (with his camera). I took a ton of photos but these are the only ones he emailed me :(

Presents wise, this year has been amazing. I got new lens for my Canon baby, a Pentax film camera (shot 7 pictures already :3), 2 beautiful necklaces and an Iphone 4.

I still have no CF card for my Canon so I had to take pictures of my presents with my iphone, therefore there are no shots of the black baby.

And, as every Christmas goes, there has to be a derpy tree decoration photo, right? : D

Did you enjoy your Christmas? What about your presents? Hope you had a lovely time!
