so tell me...

This blog is going to be pretty random as far as I can see at this point. I don't really know if there will be any organization to it, so we'll see what happens I guess. I'll probably just ramble about stuff I'm thinking about or things that have happened to me, or I might just make stuff up, I'm not really sure yet. So I hope I can keep it interesting, and I hope I can post new things somewhat regularly. Well anyways, enjoy!

The donut is right

So, wow, I haven't posted on here at all this month, but I guess that's kind of expected since the semester is winding down. I was just in the middle of studying for one of my finals and decided I needed a break. Well since we are nearing Christmas, I figured I would reminisce a little about past holiday seasons and try to think of my favorite tradition.

I should probably preface this by saying that my grandparents used to live in New York and they would always come out here for Christmas, so it was always super exciting when they came. They would stay in our house of course, so it was like we had an extra two people born into our family, except in reverse, sort of. Well anyway, my favorite tradition was that every morning they were here, they would walk my brother and I down to a donut shop that was by our house and we would get donuts. Donuts every day for about 3 weeks. Pretty much heaven in my opinion. Plus they would always be showing The Price is Right on the television, so we had a pretty good combination going with donuts and The Price is Right. That combo is hard to beat. Well this whole tradition might be why I love donuts and that show so much, although I think I like that show because of the huge wheel they spun at the end. I mean, honestly, who could resist watching that thing spin around? It was mesmerizing.

Looking back on this, I think I want to talk a lot more about donuts, but I'll save that for the next post. Well it was rather fun to think back, although rather sad at the same time, because my grandparents live here now, so it would be pointless to have them drive over to our house just so we could walk to the donut shop. Oh yeah, and the donut shop doesn't even exist anymore, so that makes it kind of hard as well. Welp, back to studying. Yes!
