Talking: "words"
[Name] was getting excited for the fast approaching holiday of Christmas. She loved how all the streets and businesses were decorated for the holiday. She was currently walking around the mall and looking at all the stores. [Name] still needed to buy some gifts for a few of her friends, one special someone in particular but she wasn't sure he'd like whatever she gave him. She also didn't think he liked her in general. As she stood in front of a small chocolate store something caught her eye. 'Maybe, he'd like some chocolate?' [Name] thought while looking on an expensive box of chocolate. She decided to walk into the store and look around. Her [e/c] orbs scanning the many delicious looking chocolates. "Anything I can help you with?" [Name] looked up startled slightly by the old man behind the counter. "Oh, um… just browsing." She said quickly with a smile. "Alright then." He replied with a cheery smile. She then went back to looking at all the chocolates finally picking up a box of assorted chocolates. 'I hope he likes these.' [Name] thought as she walked to the counter. "All set?" asked the old man, still smiling. "Yes. Thank you." She handed him the box and he rung up her purchase, "That'll be twenty dollars, miss." "Here, you go." She said as she handed him the money. He then placed the box of chocolates into a plastic bag and handed it to her. "Have a nice day, miss." He smiled as [Name] left the store. She waved to him as she left. "With that done, I only have a few more gifts to get." She said to no one in particular as she walked.
She arrived home a little while later and got set to wrapping the gifts she bought. Once done with that she put them in her closet and then went into the kitchen to make dinner for herself. [Name] cooked as simple meal of pasta and sauce. She sat down and began eating. After she finished she headed upstairs and walked into her room. She looked at her reflection in the full length mirror. [Name] looked at her [h/c] hair and her face. "I haven't been getting as much sleep as I should." She said as she poked at the bags under her eyes. She sighed and got changed into a simple [favorite color] t-shirt and matching shorts before she walked over to her bed and flopped down on it. She smiled as pulled the covers over herself. [Name] let sleep consume her.
The next morning [Name] woke up to the sun's rays shining into her room. She groaned and pulled the pillow over her head. 'Too early…' she thought and tried to go back to sleep but she lost that battle and sat up stretching with a yawn. "Fine, I'll get up!" She complained a slight frown tugging at her lips. After she made the bed she headed downstairs and into the kitchen. [Name] pulled out her [favorite cereal] from the cabinet and poured it into a bowl. She then grabbed the milk from the fridge and a spoon from one of the drawers in the kitchen. She poured the milk into the bowl and then put it away. [Name] then picked up a glass and set it down, pouring [favorite juice] into the glass. Finally she sat down and ate the quick and easy breakfast. Her [e/c] eyes suddenly landed on the calendar that was hanging on the wall, eyes growing wide when she noticed that tomorrow was circled in red. "Alfred's Christmas party is TOMORROW?!" she shouted. "How could I forget that?!" she sighed. 'Well at least I got all my gifts yesterday.' [Name] then went cleaned up the dishes and walked upstairs. She took a shower and then got dressed for the day. 'Tomorrow will be very interesting to say the least.' She thought as she did some cleaning around her small house. After she was finished [Name] decided she might as well enjoy some well deserved TV time. So she turned on the television and plopped down on the couch. She quickly changed the channel to [favorite show/channel] and watched that to her heart's content.
After TV time, [Name] went out to do some grocery shopping. She was currently walking up and down the aisles with her basket on her arm. The basket was nearly full so she knew she was almost done shopping. She smiled and after checking that she indeed had everything on her list she set out to the line of cash registers at the front of the market. She waited in a line that wasn't too long and looked like it was moving at a relatively fast pace. When all of her items were rung up she paid and was on her way. The first thing she did once she got home was put the groceries she had bought away. Once done with that, [Name] turned on her computer and entertained herself with the wonders of the internet. As she looked at the clock it read, 11 pm. "Well I should probably head to bed now." She shut off her computer and headed upstairs. [Name] changed into her pajama's. She then laid down on the bed and shut her eyes. Sleep taking her quickly.
