Fairly Healthy

I haven't caught hold of the Christmas hype just yet. I wonder if it's because being so sheltered in the school environment that I haven't been given the chance to see what it's really like on the outside. People are decorating their places, putting in the Frank Sinatra Christmas album, etc., but I just haven't caught into it! Darn!

I'm not sure, though, if I really want to be in a Christmas-y mood. I mean, I'd like to be, but I don't know what it'd do to/for me. Haha. I don't even know if that makes any sense. And of course, when you talk about Christmas, there is no way you can ignore shopping. That, then, asks the question of how much I'm going to spend on presents this year.

Not going to lie, I'm not going to spend a lot. I might buy myself something small-ish, but that's about it. Maybe I'll pick something up for the family too, but I don't know what.

Anyways, I have had shin splints for the last little while and it's been a bit of an inconvenience because it bothers me when I walk and it doesn't allow me to run, or else the pain will get pretty bad. My dad told me not to play soccer for two weeks but I didn't listen. Shoot! I tried to play last night and it was no good. My left leg feels okay, but my right hurts with every step that I take. And so, I feel like my recovery process has taken a step back because tonight, when I tried to run over to the cafe so I could get myself some delicious chocolate milk, the shins were hurting.

Dang it! But it's okay, I haven't caught the Christmas fever yet, so I am still healthy in some way! My wallet will thank me for this later.
