:D! It's the day after December 25! All our presents have been opened (well, except for me ... just because) and .... did you get all the stuff you asked for!??!?!?!? I actually won't know until I receive everything from my boyfriend and some other friends and those won't come until next year (i.e. January). >_>; But otherwise, my gifts were okei. Didn't get much though. :B My Amazon and Kaboodle wishlists didn't see much movement. :E But you know, I didn't actually ask for anything specific for Christmas. XD! Stuffage I got: - $40 cash from my friend
- Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage CD from a friend
- A black Fossil wallet from my mom
- $50 EB Games gift card from my bro and sis-in-law
But I've been Merry Christmasing myself throughout the entire year and been buying things online more than I have in past years so it evens out. :P I'll probably do a Happy Boxing Day + Happy Birthday to myself next week and pick up a PS3. I already put in an order for a camera tripod (saved $40!!!! It was regularly priced at $59.99 or something) and a Lexar 8 GiB memory stick.

My poor college student ass asked for clothes, clothes and more clothes. And I got that! 4 nice shirts and some new shoooooes (new shooOOOooes~!). I didn't get any pants, though. I did get $60 in gift cards and $250 in cash, though, which is way more than I expected from anyone. I shall use this to buy pants! I also got The Onion's world atlas "Our Dumb World". Opened to a random page and laughed within a few seconds, it should be a hilarious read. The Onion is awesome. Oh! I also got a Lighthouse calendar. 11 calendars now adorn my wall.

Yeah, I'm considering to buy some pants. I got a new t-shirt (a really really good one too), but I didn't get any pants. So that is one thing that I would have liked to have but didn't get.
Pretty much everything else was good stuff that I had asked for. Uhm, some things were optionals or alternatives (I don't know how to put it, but I think you get the picture), and I just didn't get some of those items. I had kept the option open to get BlazBlue or Battle Fantasia, and some old SNES games. But with my extra money I might be buying that! Yay!~

A job, new clothes that don't have holes in them, shoes that aren't falling apart, food...
Well, I sort of got food for Christmas I guess, so maybe that doesn't count...

Well, I sure Happy Boxing Day'd myself yesterday. Man, it's DANGEROUS to hang around Steam when they're doing their holiday sales. ^^; I ended up buying: - Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
- Overlord
- Resident Evil 5
- Universe at War: Earth Assault
- Torchlight
All this came in at under $40 US, I think. Or just over $40 US. Pretty crazy!!!!! Then I went to the EA store, spotted freakin' Command & Conquer 3 Deluxe Edition for $9.99 US and got that too. Let's see if it'll get lost in the mail or at a neighbour's house though. Why, oh why, did I not back up the install files for C&C3 when I bought it as a download the first time? (Or maybe I did but just forgot where the heck I put it.) *goes back to stalking for deals at Steam*

I don't really have much of a place in this topic, since...... I got whatever I wanted and more. :'D But~ I shall write away anyways. X'D So what did I want? Me paycheck, please. Before college closed down for thesis show preparations~ And I got that. On the 24th. Since Christmas technically isn't celebrated here, and most definitely not by my very boring family (and an even more boring and reclusive me!), one doesn't expect any gifts. (Those I expect on the Eids!) So it was a very nice surprise to get chocolates and cookies from MP83 and some 'paintings' from me elementary school students~~~ <3 OH WAIT! I just remembered! I wanted my Hetalia and Death Note figures shipped to me atleast by Christmas buuuuuuut~~~~ god only knows what Play-Asia is doing with them. Me wants me Arthurrrrrsssss! (Knowing my luck, when I probably will get them sometime this century, I'll for sure end up with a box full of Alfreds. DX Ugh!)

I do not celebrate Christmas, I got nothing so I guess I can say I did not receive what I wanted, and if so, it was a really lousy Christmas! but as I said, I do not celebrate Christmas, we must be happy, because who does not want a bad holiday? Not me and certainly neither are you but in all cases, the bizarre thing is sure, sure as a safety deposit box or similar!

As I think most here know, I'm one of Jehovah's Witnesses so I don't celebrate Christmas either, but, I had a nice relaxing time off of work, & I wanted that! So, in that respect, I did get what I want

I got nothing for X-mas. Didn't celebrate ^_____^ Didn't particularly want anything that I couldn't get myself, either.
