10:43 pm It certainly doesn’t feel like Christmas is soon. I used to have a Christmas tree, lights, and other decorations, but the rats in the old apartment chewed it all up. It all had to be thrown away. My mom got me one thing I wanted:
A Hello Kitty sweater
It’s always hard during holidays because nobody can afford plane tickets to see each other. I’ve asked my mom to Skype but she won’t do it, she doesn’t really want anything to do with technology I guess. I ask her every year and it’s always a no. I feel kind of hurt that she doesn’t want to make the effort to video chat with me. I don’t know, I can’t help but feel like she doesn’t really care to see me even if it’s only by video chat. Maybe I’m overreacting.
I’m so sorry, girl.
I can’t imagine going long without seeing my mom. I’m already heartbroken that my sister moved 3 hours away. I can deal since she’s moving back.
Have you talked to your mom about how it hurts your feelings? I feel so bad. I don’t think you’re overreacting at all. Moms are that unconditional love.
If you ever are lonely, you can always talk to me. I would totally be down to video chat with you! I know I’m not your mom and it wouldn’t be the same, but I’m awkward and giggly and can possibly make you smile! <3

I actually really hate video chat, lol. I was only willing to do it with my mom. I just feel more comfortable talking through text and can express myself better that way.
