Alright, I finally got on top of things. I’ve started shopping for my family.

I’m just kind of looking around, shopping for my mom, my dad, my brothers and sisters and all — friends and family. As I see something I’ll grab it, basically. So that’s been fun.

It feels good to be able to take care of your family a little bit, be able to give back. They’ve been helping me out since I’ve been little, so it’ll be good to see everybody.

As far as what I want for Christmas, I don’t know. Just probably to hang out with my family. I’ve been away for so long, just seeing them will be a good gift for me. Plus I’m excited to give them their gifts.

Speaking of giving gifts, a couple days ago — Tuesday, actually — I went with some of the other rookies to The Sports Authority store to help give some kids some Christmas presents. That was an experience. Each one of them had a gift certificate for 100 dollars, so it was fun to go around and see what they wanted to buy. It’s always good to hang out with the kids. They all have such different personalities, and it’s just good to give back and have a good time with them.
