I am unpredictable like this. I am now back from Córdoba and I already want to go back. The thing is, I have a few “second” cousins there (all boys which is strange for a girl in whose closest family are all girls) which are about my age (15, 16 and 17). After Christmas’ Eve, they took my and my sister out to the city’s nightlife and wow, it was awesome. The disco was nothing like the nightclubs you can find here and I had such a great time with them. There was one summer that I went there with my sisters and my grandparents and we spent it with the guys the whole time. But the following times we went there we pretty much didn’t talk to each other. I don’t know why. So it was great to finally catch up a little with life and such. And can I add a very out of place comment? Two of them are kind of hot.

But, there was something that totally caught me off guard. My grandmother passed away in 2004, and a couple of years later my grandfather moved back to Córdoba. I think I once heard a thing about this but I didn’t know. When we go to greet him to his house, there’s this woman. Okay, I thought, she must be the cleaning lady. But when she sat with us to the table and that I realized she was not. I didn’t say a word, but it was totally awkward. If it was for me, imagine for the woman. I don’t have a problem with my grandfather’s girlfriend, actually I think she is really nice, but I think at least a warning from my parents or something would have been nice. Yes, awkward is the word to describe it.

Okay, so the year is almost over. I certainly cannot make a list of great things that happened this year because I can’t recall of any right now. Maybe because the year passed by incredibly fast? Was I so busy with life and such that I didn’t even realize that a WHOLE year passed right by me? Alright, not big deal. But I should pay a little more attention to life sometimes. I live in this parallel world of mine and I barely look outside. And when I do, I get a little shocked.

So, Christmas, one of my favourites days of the year (in fact, Christmas’ Eve) is in a few days. My grandfather called back in November because he wanted all of us (dad, mum, my two sisters, my brother and I) to spend the holidays with him in Córdoba (another province far away from where I am at), where he lives. Me, and my sister, who have been waiting to finally spend both Christmas and New Year at home for a long, long time (it’s been years since we can’t spend both holidays here) obviously disagreed. And we made our mum feel miserable for a few days, and argued with my dad quite hardly for them to let us both stay. Of course they didn’t let us, and here we go again. Three days away. Yay? Not. However, I guess we’ll be able to meet with a lot of our family that we haven’t seen in a while (all of my dad’s family live there), but that’s just it.

Other than that, life is going amazingly well. And summer is finally here, though it could be sensed since early November, whatever.
