Oh, the weekend is already gone.

I love long weekends. It's great to have that time to just take a break, away from school and work and troubles. It's sad, though, when it's over. Everything starts again tomorrow.
It won't be too long, though. Christmas break is coming up soon, an even longer break. But I think they shortened it this year...
Speaking of Christmas, this week is the first week of Advent, so yesterday at the church, we made advent wreaths! Ours is slightly unfinished, because Mum didn't have enough supplies. We get to light the first candle today.
Dad, McKenzie, Clint, and I all went shopping on Friday. We didn't go early in the day, so we weren't hit by Black Friday shoppers. We went to a shoe store called Run In for training shoes for track. It's really cool, because they are pretty much experts on shoes. They will make cuts in the soles of the shoes for more flexibility, and on my shoes, they completely took out a part of the plastic soles! The manager there went to the same college as my dad, or something. They were talking the whole time while Clint and I were getting our shoes. We ended up getting free t-shirts.
We also went to Barnes and Noble and saw our friend from marching band, Jason, and his friend there. We talked for a really long time about nothing in particular. It was humorous, though, when I first saw him across the store and I was thinking, "Is that Jason? No, it can't be. But it is!" McKenzie and I couldn't stop laughing at the hilarity of it. What hilarity, I don't know. It was just great.
The last store we went to was Circuit City, where I looked for an mp3 player. I didn't end up buying one there, though later in the night I looked at one on the computer. It's a refurbished Creative Zen (4 gb). Because it's refurbished, I bought it for half off.
Today is Sunday, and I haven't done a single productive thing today. Isn't that great?
