I got a widescreen laptop! I was stunned! Its Toshiba too... I'm not sure how my parents pulled it off... but its awesome. It's also for my birthday in July and my graduation in June haha. But's is AMAZING.

Congrat CR! I know you really wanted a tablet. It may take a little getting used to, but once you do, you'll never go back to drawing with a mouse!
What did I get? So far, candy and decorations for my room. I didn't ask for much this year.

An iPod Nano. I have never owned (or really even touched) one before and this gizmo is pretty sweet. I'm waiting for it to upload part of my music collection as I type.

iTunes Giftcard. I was about to just spend it all on music, but then I saw they had episodes of Battlestar Galatica and audiobooks. Now, I'm at a lost on what to do. >.>

Final Fantasy V. It's Final Fantasy... 'nuff said.

Headphone Jack Coupler. I would go into to a big long explanation about this, but let's just say that it let's me plug my headphones into my X-box 360.

A National Geographic Travelers Guide to Japan ^^

A really yummy looking cookbook (that is, the recipes, not the book itself ^^), some super comfy slippers, a incredibly comfy shirt from AE, some comfy lounge pants, eleven cds (Stevie Ray Vaghan, Eurythmics, Matchbox 20, Santana, Eric Clapton, Sting, U2, Matthew Sweet, Weezer, John Fogerty), and a cheese peeler.


Needless to say, I'm feeling very comfy right now (and yes, I asked for a cheese peeler ).

A bunch of CDs (Johnny Cash, Nickel Creek, Hellogoodbye, Emery, and Waking Ashland. Score.), Fullmetal Alchemist movie, jeans from American Eagle (36x30 size.....I've lost two pants sizes since July and these fit perfectly, and this is a total milestone for me. They were too tight last October, but they fit perfectly now. =D). A kit of Axe body gel, deodorant, and spray (I think my parents are sending me a signal...heheh), and two Gundam Seed Destiny DVDs.

Oh, and...the big one? A digital freaking camera with a 512 MB memory stick. It's so righteous. Expect lots of random junk from me in Post Your Pic from now on.

I got a mid-length pea coat, a crocheted afaghan, an external hard-drive, a watch, candles, batteries, vanilla lotion and body wash, a seam ripper, fabric scissors, the old Casino Royale on DVD, and a stud finder.

Yes, and I asked for the stud finder - I am an architecture major...

Really though, I went out with my parents a couple weeks back and they bought me a couple nice shirts, a pair of cargo pants, and some pajama/lounge pants (or as I call them, "chillin' pants").
My sister and brother-in-law gave me a nifty little handheld game called 20Q. You think of something and it starts asking questions to which you press buttons to respond "yes", "no", "sometimes" or "unknown". Whatever you think of, it usually gets it right, or at least comes pretty close. It seems kinda like something a computer programming student did for his final project and decided to patent and sell it.
I also got a check and some cash totalling $70 from relatives. So, for the most part I've pretty much had to be my own Santa. No problem, at least I know what I want.

Oh, I also got a Nintendo Wii....


and then I woke up.

First off, congrats on the Wacom Tablet, CR-chan! I expect to see lots of awesome pics from you now! XD

Anyways, I am now the proud owner of my own copy of Final Fantasy XII. Wow.

Also, I got a load of Prismacolor markers (seriously, like...50 or more. XD Yay!), Miyazaki's Castle in the Sky on DVD, the Beauty and the Beast soundtrack, and a 15$ iTunes card.

Christmas Cards from various CAA Members.

100 dollar bill (Need so start saving for a PSP! Or I might get CoD3 for the Wii)
a new wallet (so I can stop using my Sanrio one, yay!)
A small book called "Feng Shoe"
10 dollar Gamespot gift card
15 dollar Pandoras Cube gift card

And that's it o.o

Just got a few more gifts.

Trauma Center: Second Opinion for the Wii, rentals of Cars and Marvel Ultimate Alliance also for the Wii, and an electric razor which I desperately need. right now. =P

Aw, but everyone loves Sanrio! xD

Asformeh. I got an orange hoodie from Aeropostale, two CDs (Linkin Park and All-American Rejects xD][/b]) a little black Mokona plushie, and a big black Mokona plushie.

Three turtlenecks, a thick fleece shirt, a scarf, and a Jacket.

^^ thankes everyone! I doodled something a few hours ago...(before I was like fall over from lack of sleep, and I gotta say...it's sooo fun!!! I think I am starting to get the hang of it! ^_^) It's a Graphire 6x8 tablet

I have nicknamed it Tabby. XD



Congrats on everyone getting awesome stuff!!

I forgot to mention that my dad LOVES to collect coins, and so he got each of us girls a mint condition coin set with our birthyears, it was really cool! ^_^

I also go a ring, a new scarf, gloves and nifty hat! (it gets really cold when I walk to my college brr)

umm...my grandma sent me some really nifty chinese wallet things! They are so pretty!

^___^ For Christmas I got my family! XD; It sounds dorky, but I'm really happy I could come home and be with everyone, 'cause I've missed them so much. ;3;

Also got:

- monies. XD; Monies that are going towards another dollie...
- orange spice and berry tea. :3 The orange spice tea is SOOO good.
- a Snakes on a Plane shirt. XD SCORE.
- Moon Child on DVD
- cookies and a bag for carrying dollies. \^0^/

EDIT: And last night, I got to put an astonished look on the faces of my brother's friends when I whipped them all in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Obviously the most satisfying gift of all. XD

Most of what my parents got me was clothing, so that I have something nice to wear once I start working (Most of it came from New York and Company, though a few things were from other stores). I also got a few DVDs from my family (Samurai X Director's Cut, Memoirs of a Geisha, Labyrinth, and Howl's Moving Castle, which I'll have to return because I already had a copy.)

Before we left college for break, I got Making out in Japanese and the soundtrack to Howl's Moving Castle from a few friends.

The Green Album and Make Believe. All I need is Pinkerton and my collection will be complete!

samuraidragon wrote:The Green Album and Make Believe. All I need is Pinkerton and my collection will be complete!

Oh, awesome. You NEED Pinkerton. If the content on the Green Album isn't offensive to you, then Pinkerton will be fine (that might not be an issue with you, I just know it is with some people). Pinkerton is their best record, hands down. Aaanyway, back to presents and stuff since this is the wrong forum for Weezer talk. I'll have more to update tonight. ^^;

My mom got a MacBook Pro....with grandpa dying and everything over the past couple of weeks, she needed something exciting. So, dad had it shipped here overnight and she was completely taken aback when she saw it. She started crying lol.....it was awesome. We kept a tight lid on it and she had absolutely no clue.

WOOOT ENGLAND!!! *jumpes in Chibi's bag and hides* TAKE MEEE TOOO! TT^TT

i got paper mario: thousand year door
grandia II
a dressy tie
prince of tennis volumes 16
eyeshield 21 volume 11

I got a ton of giftcards, a gig of memory for my computer, PHOTOSHOP (AHHH DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING!), some cds, the Azumanga Daioh boxset, some dvds, Chanel black nail polish (ahhh didn't expect that either *squee*), and gloves and a scarf from AE.

my mom got a new stereo system (which we desperately needed.. the old one is from the early nineties <.<;; ) she literally screamed. It was pretty funny. And since my brother got POTC2 we've been watching it and the special features all day. XD;

" wrote:oh, and a trip to england for 3 months. XP

SWEEEEET!!

My dad ordered two gigs of memory earlier this week, and though it wasn't rally a gift for me, he stuck it in my stocking after having told me it hadn't come in yet the day before.

Some gift cards, money, a human being, and books. All in all, a good haul.
