That's cool! Yeah, they are fairly big... it took me a while to figure out who they were and that they were good though.

Yeah, Needtobreathe seems to be getting more popular every day. I heard one of their songs awhile back and liked it quite a bit... I forgot the title or how it went though. I'm sure I'd recognize it if I heard it again.

Oh man, Atria. New Vegas is ADDICTIVE. I currently have 50 hours logged in that game. It's SO GOOD. Haha.

I got this random long wool coat. It wasn't really a Christmas present per se. My mom just found it and it was new. She can't remember where or when she got it but it was new. So she gave it to me. Expensive too. Jones New York.

And on a gift exchange raffle I ended up getting some lipgloss... I traded it with my sister for candles though. Haha.

Oh and money... which means textbooks for next semester. Hah.

It was a trivia game and a couple others I can't remember xD
Winkolina is an ugly doll http://hmbtoys.com/ugly-dolls-plush/winkolina.jpg

Well, I got lots of money from all my relatives. xD It's the easiest thing to get a teenager, I guess.

Let's see, I got...

A new desk lamp~ (I needed one in my dark room)
A soft and comfy robe~
A boatload of candy I will probably never eat~ XD
A chocolate orange~
A sweater~
A shiny new cookbook~ *w*


Then my whole family got a Wii.


Though, one of the best gifts I got was before Christmas, when I actually was able to get great presents for the rest of my family with little stress while shopping in the crazy busy stores (this is a rarity for me, to have little stress while Christmas shopping).

Buuuut, since my brother's birthday is pretty close to Christmas, he got a Kindle, money for books, a new disc drive for our Wii, and Machinarium (PC, and technically on my Steam account), and I will have some use of all of those.

Also, my family goes out every year and picks up a board game or two - this year, we're probably getting Bang! to replace the copy we lost a while back. It's a fascinating card game, great for 4-8 people, which involves shooting enemies and friends alike, throwing around sticks of dynamite, much backstabbery, and drinking beer. Fun for the whole family!

From my parents:
Kobo e-reader
The Settlers of Catan
Sherlock Holmes DVDs
2011 Bathroom reader calender
365 new words a year calender
$20 fye gift card
Vampire Stories by A. Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes is one of them!)
From my grandma:
Teach Yourself Pitman shorthand
Gregg shorthand dictionary
Knit cap and pillowcase from Grandma
From my cousins:
Three shirts
Pez candy and gummi bears
$5 McDonalds gift card
Youth group secret Santa
$20 Borders gift card
my neighbor

And I bought Resonance of Fate and FMA Brotherhood Pt. 1 for myself.
I think that's it. If it sounds like i'm bragging, i'm not. Im just really blessed that my family could get all of things for me, and am truly content with what I got. And I actually like one of the shirts! The other two, though very nice, are not really my style. Idk, I may end up liking them anyway.

My mom and I even bought my dad a sushi kit from Waldenbooks that came with a book, DVD, and utensils as a joke.(He hates sushi) It was hilarious seeing him open it.

From the weather:
- a cold (which I'm getting over)

From family:

-a reminder of Jesus' love for us and what he did for us :D
-A new camera
-a mine videocamera (one of those ones that take an hour of footage)
- tatsunoko vs. capcom (super fun!)
-a board game called "Smart-bottom" (can't say the actual name but you get the picture >.>;. this present was for all 3 brothers.)
-blu-ray player (this present was for entire family.)
-3 t-shirts
-1 nice dress down shirt and matching tie.
-set of silly pajamas (see bottom)
-$20 bucks
-1 box of q-tips (gag gift)

From co-workers:

-$10 gamestop giftcard
-$5 blockbuster giftcard
-2 bags of candy

Another cool thing was we got to celebrate a couple of new traditions in our family this year. One being my bro got a polar express train set so we build a custom layout for the track (complete with a bridge, cave and pretty nighttime background with a silouhette of santa going across the moon). I will send you guys pics when I get the chance to grab my camera and post them on here.

The other thing was, for the second year, we did silly pajama secret santas. This is where the younger people in the family would pick names from a hat a few weeks before christmas and would have to make-up or create a silly set of pajamas for that person to wear for the whole day on Christmas (no matter where they go.) We couldn't do it on christmas because some of my cousins worked on that day so we gave them the day after. I ended up getting one of my cousins so I decided to dress him as the main character from "Adventure time" complete with his Awesome hat. XD. Turns out he had me too and I became a University of Alabama Crimson Tide football fan. XD So yeah we went to winn-dixie and the movies all dressed up in our pjs. Hilarity ensued. XD

I am also on my 1st draft of a short live-action Romcom called "Behind Every Good Man! Behind Every Good Man is about a Bride-to-be, Evelyn, who must stop her Mother-in-Law, Pamela, from living her dream wedding through Evelyn's. Along the way she learns what it means to be a Woman of Integrity today! If anyone wants to help let me know!

I had a rather relaxing Christmas. I got sick soon after but I'm on the road to recovery already.

I got:
A Terry's Chocolate Orange.
Calculator.
A small box of fudge.
A $15 gift card for Zellers.
A Wacom Bamboo Tablet. (Which is somewhat funny since the day before I had mentioned my need for a tablet in a PM, and ended up unexpectedly getting one the very next day after wanting one for a few years. It made me quite happy.)
