so i keep having all these odd senses of deja vu. it possibly has something to do with the weather at the moment, and the fact i haven't had a summer in a year (yes i went through 2 winters, and yes for a while it sucked).
the latest was one just recently, i was making shortbread with the girls and it was pouring rain. the deja vu of it all was i remember making shortbread with my mum during our summer break while it was pouring rain. the only difference is summer in Australia is in December. so it honestly felt like Christmas should be around the corner. thats what most of them have felt like. i'm used to Christmas in summer not in winter, so i've constantly had the feeling that Christmas is gonna be soon. couple that with the Pouring rain and everyone being off school, and it gets odd sometimes. it has made me a little homesick, cause i miss Darwin thunderstorms and Christmas in summer. but its okay, cause i'm doing things to help it out.
another reason its so odd is i have always associated the end of school with Christmas- all through elementary (or primary as we say in Australia) school, our last days were always making things and decorating the room. doing Christmasy things. so it was wired this year to have Christmas half way through school, and when school did end, Christmas was not there to look forward to. i have made it up though. one night i spent the night listening to Christmas carols to make me feel better. and anyone who knows me will tell you one of my favourite things to do is close my door, play my music and just dance around my room, so doing exactly that to Christmas carols made for a very fun evening. :)
well whatever season you celebrate Christmas its always fun, and this sense of deja vu i don't think will ever go away, its too drilled into my brain that Christmas is in the summer. :)oh well!
Till next time
