I have been feeling a little sad this week and I was trying to figure out why? I mean, it's Christmas! I should be singing and celebrating the festive season, but for some reason I just don't feel cheerful!
You see, this is the first Christmas I will be spending without anyone of my immediate family. Every year since I can remember I have always at least been around if not one, then all of them but this year, not one of them will be around me and that kinda bums me out.
I know I will see them again soon when I move back home in about 2-3 weeks, but there's something about this time of year that makes you want to be around your family. I love my family a lot and of course I miss not being around them for the other 11 months of the year but December is time for family (so I have gown up to believe) and not being around family right at this moment is a sad feeling.
So I guess you can say I kinda got the Christmas blues - I know it's only temporary but it's still a stink feeling to have! Thank goodness for the internet - at least I can communicate with them still - even if I can't be with them. Sadness for the holidays, what gift could be worse then that?
Bring on 2007 - I'm ready for a change.

Don't worry like you said it's just for a short while and will most likely be the last time this ever happens. It feels weird for us too (well maybe just me cause Hamish is a loner lol). Next year onwards we are also coming to NZ or anywhere the family is. At least you have family in Auckland, we got none here (that we know of course) lol
