8.00am - Woke up
As usual, my brothers, my sister and I dive into my parents room to wake them up and make them let us go downstairs so we can see if Father Christmas (lol) has brought us anything... And obviously he always has because we are such good little children, and here I am not speaking for my annoying brothers, just for me and my wonderful big sister whom I love because she is fabulous and lets me borrow her make-up, hair products and clothes. My mum and dad make us croissants with butter and jam and hot chocolate, and then we rush upstairs to change into our Christmas morning outfits.
9.00am - Presents time ... yeyyy!!!
Our parents always open their presents first, because we open them in order of age, so I always open mine second to last! This year, I got my mum a beautiful pair of Christian Louboutin shoes and a black sequined bag from Accessorize, and my dad a Top Gear Challenges DVD and a cool Homer Simpson cookie jar (because he broke the one I got him last year - it was a Cyberman one) filled with luxury truffles and chocolates from Thorntons. I got my older brother a Richard Hammond autobiography and a Manchester United calender. For my younger brother, I bought a Led Zeppelin tee-shirt (he is getting into the rock/metal phase like me and my older siblings...stealing all our CDs much to the annoyance of my brother, who went beserk when he found out that Johnny had taken his favourite Led Zeppelin CD to school with him for after the October break - he had to bring it back on the exeat though as Harry threatened to murder him if he didn't!) and the Led Zeppelin CD he stole from Harry. And finally, for Grace I bought a Fall Out Boy poster (she is madly in love with Pete Wentz - can't say I see the attraction meself) and a fab set of strawberry-scented products from The Body Shop. All-in-all, I was proud of the things I bought, as once again I managed to get things which, with the exception of the Led Zeppelin tee-shirt and the Fall Out Boy poster and the Manchester United calender, I can also use!!
11.00am - Staring lovingly at the face of Ian Watkins
I am completely in love with the poster my wonderful, adorable, fantasic, brilliant, lovely, kind, amazing sister has bought me! A Lostprophets poster, which means Ian Watkins is on it, and I love Ian Watkins. Not as much as my future husband Nicholas Hoult, may I add, but a lot at any rate. Speaking of Nicholas Hoult, I got the Skins box set from my parents too. Plus loaaaads of other amazing presents! I am currently listening to the Led Zeppelin CD, which my brother worships me for buying, Harry I mean, not Johnny...who loves it even so. Harry worships me because now Johnny won't steal his CD!
3.00pm - In the car
I am on the way to my Auntie Rose's house. She lives just outside Oxford, and my family are spending Christmas there this year. We alternate each year. I love going to Auntie Rose's house, which is a huge old farmhouse surrounded by land and she has a huge stables with loads of horses. I am wearing a white knee-length vintage dress with black tights and black ballet pumps. I love the dress and I've had it for over a year now, I got it from a fab little shop in London, and it's beautiful! We are all singing along to madly cheesy Christmas songs, which we always play in the car ride to whoever's house we are going to for Christmas. It's cheesy, but looooaaaaadddddsssssss of fun!!
7.15pm - Foooooddddd....
Turkey has to be one of the best meals ever! I'm stuffed now! Me and my underage siblings and cousins have polished off four large chocolate gateaux between us (well, there are 16 of us, so we've had a quarter of a gateau each), and the of age siblings, cousins and other adults have polished of numerous amounts of sherry trifle. We have all had a glass of champagne, as is tradition, but for us underage lot, that is the limit to our alcohol consumption today :( lol. We move to the lounge for a selection of cheesy games that one can get away with playing on family get-togethers!
12.00am - Tucked up
We got back about 15mins ago, and I collapsed in bed as soon as I'd finished taking off my make-up, clothes, washing my face and brushing my teeth. I'm about a whisker from sleep, but Christmas day is over now... boo hoo :(
