Home for Christmas!

Hey everyone!

So I am officially home for Christmas! I traveled home on Sunday and I will be home for the last two weeks of my winter break. This evening I have finally finished wrapping up all of my Christmas presents and they are now sitting under the tree awaiting to be opened on Christmas day. 

I don't know if it's only me but I don't really feel like it's just a few days away from Christmas. It could be because there isn't snow on the ground (I'm from Southern Ontario if you didn't know that) or because I'm now just able to watch all the Christmas shows on TV ( I don't have cable in Guelph) which I usually start at the beginning of December. But Christmas is just over a day away!

Now when I came home on Sunday my mom told me the cutest story about my little sister. She is just 3 years old and my mom said that when Alecz was helping my mom wrap my presents she had asked if she could get me one. But she didn't just want to go to the store to get one she wanted to give me her bunny. She told my mom that she didn't need it anymore and that I could have it instead. My mom told her that it's okay and that they would go pick something else out for me at a store, but isn't that so sweet? I mean she's 3 and she was willing to give me one of her stuffed animals as a Christmas present. She is just the sweetest little girl.

Anyways that is it for today! I have another post coming up tomorrow about one of my favourite Christmas traditions so look forward to reading that!

Top 10 Christmas Films!

Hey everyone!

So I thought since it is now December that it would be kind of fun to do at least one Christmas related post in the week. Tonight we are decorating our christmas tree so I am in a very festive mood right now! I know that not everyone celebrates Christmas so I'm sorry that these posts may not be your cup of tea, so that's why I'm only doing about one a week.However, Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year, I love the lights, the movies, the treats,  and of course spending time with my family. Christmas is just a really happy time of the year and I just love every second of it! 

So here is my top 10 Christmas movies!

1. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

2. How The Grinch Stole Christmas (both the 1966 & 2000 version)

3.Elf

4. Christmas With The Kranks

5. A Christmas Story

6. Home Alone

7. A Charlie Brown Christmas

8. Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer

9. The Santa Claus 

10. The Polar Express

I was only going to do my top 5 Christmas movies but there was no way that I could narrow my list down that small. Watching a Christmas movie with a cup of hot chocolate is probably one of my favourite ways of getting into the Christmas spirit. It is such a wonderful time of year and I can't wait until the big day!

Also, here is my families tree and some of our decorations :)

I'm Back!!

Hey everyone!

Been awhile hasn't it? Those that regularly read my blog (are there regulars?) I am super sorry that I haven't posted in a very long time but for those that are in university or any secondary education you can  probably understand why. I was all of a sudden under a pile of midterms, assignments, and "midterms" that were at basically the end of first term. Right now is the first week of my universities exam period so that's why I am finally able to write a blog post. My exams aren't until next week so I am studying and finishing up my last assignment so I basically have starting this week until the beginning of January off from school, minus my two exam days. WHOO!

So I am basically finished my first semester of my second year at university and all I have to say is wow! It has gone by so fast and I can't believe that I am already halfway done this year. I honestly don't know how the semesters go by so fast but they have all seemed to zoom by. With this semester over I do have quite a lot of exciting news that I hope you guys will be happy with. 

By the middle of December I will no longer be working, therefore I will have a lot more time to do Internet things. the "things" include my usual schedule of blog posts, so three times a week if you are new to my blog. I usually post on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, but that may change slightly because my next semester schedule is a bit hectic on Monday's and Wednesday's, but I will still have my 3 posts they may just happen on different days. AND I will be making regular videos!  I know I have said that in the past but since I won't be working through my next semester I will have time to make and edit videos! My first official video will be up mid-December and I will probably vlog bits and pieces of by break and put it in one big video. I am super excited to be making videos and if you have any ideas of videos please let me know on here or you can email me!

I have also just made a Spotify account for those who are big music people. My account is emmylalonde so my blog name so feel free to follow me or if you think I need to be listening to better music please leave songs or artists because I love fining new music to listen to. Or if you think their are people I should be following on Spotify leave them below :)
