[Secre]

Dad got me a second hand DSi because my old DS broke, but thats about it.

 

No, actually one of my friends got me a very nice hoody...

 

We don't tend to do Christmas...Christmas tends to be a time when me and my brother wrestle alcohol from my alcoholic mother...Dad tends to make cooked birds fly...and I become a scratched record repeatedly saying 'Now, be nice'. Luckily the alcohol is flowing which makes it beareable.

 

Sorry, I am a scrooge...and I am overjoyed about my DSi as I can't cope without a gameboy!

I did get:

-Christmas pajamas

-8 Gb Flash drive

-a flashlight

-a big candy bar

-one of those gift basket tea sets, with pretty decent tea in it

And that was it, although I've got at least one more gift that's stuck at the post office.

[-Ryan]

2 Squirrel shirts(One says "GENERAL SURGEON WARNING: Squirrels can be pesky, annoying, and may result in a severe bird seed defficency and the other says SQUIRREL YOGA and then has a bunch of squirrels climbing on various birdfeeders.

Got 2 games for X-box. (Madden 05 and Star Wars Starfighter)

Got a lot of CDs. (Move Along - AAR, Greatest Hits... So Far!!! - Pink, Dreaming Out Loud - One Republic, Leave This Town - Daughtry, All the right reasons and Silver Side Up - Nickelback)

Got a new laptop cause my last one broke.

A bunch of Pokemon cards and cards storage boxes.

Key chain that says "I <3 Squirrel"

Book shelf.

Alot of books(Book 6 in Rangers Apprentice series, Night Whispers and Battles of the Clans from the Warriors series, and the Lost Hero from Rick Riordans new series.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Wow Jesse. You got quite a lot.

 

Ryan, you should ask for a 360 or a Wii. :P

 

Seriously, wow. The number of people getting a laptop or other gifts over $70 scare me o.o I really never, ever had such an expensive gift :P

 

I agree. The most expensive gift I got was about $60 (Assassin's Creed Brotherhood). I don't know the price of the MP3 player, but I'm suspecting $60 as well, if not $70.

 

It turns out that I got dupes of Brotherhood, and my brother got dupes of Epic Yarn. We can return them, and get something else. This means that I'll have $110 to spend (since I also got $50 for the holidays). I might get Black Ops Hardened Edition along with some other game. Haven't decided yet.

 

And my grandmother is waiting on a check so she can get us the remaining gifts we asked for.

 

I also forgot to mention that my brother got binoculars that allow him to take pictures as well as use them as binoculars.

[-Ryan]

I have a Wii, but most games suck on the Wii. I like the Xbox Madden MUCH more.

I'm pretty sure you can't even create plays and stuff on the Wii one.

[Cornflakes]

I got some new Bath and Body Works,

 

a new Coach bag,

 

some fancy over-the-ear headphones,

 

a set of awesome Smurfs pajamas,

 

a set of cool Family Guy pajamas,

 

a Frontierville game card,

 

a Neocash card,

 

some adorable Super Mario plushies,

 

and a nice white hoody from my sister that has already been ruined by

 

our Christmas puppy, Bella. :)

 

oh and Thrillville Off the Rails for the 360 - - far far superior to the PS2 version.

[Devil's Angel]

Wow! Sounds like we all got pretty spoiled this Christmas. =3 Which is good! Oh, and for everyone that has a neopet, here's a belated present from me to you guys:

 

It's a little old but you guys can still use it. It's a makeable base I did last year for the heck of it. I was going to put it on a pet's page but my old account got CGed so I couldn't put it up where I wanted to. Anyways I'm sure you all know the basic rules but just in case.

 

Don't remove my sig, don't enter in the BC/Art Gallery, don't completely destroy the base line art, link back to my userlookup for now.

 

Okay, that's it, though I'd like it if you guys let me see your finished products because I'd like to post the many customizations on a page later.

[CAV of Gang Green]

I have a Wii, but most games suck on the Wii. I like the Xbox Madden MUCH more.

I'm pretty sure you can't even create plays and stuff on the Wii one.

Is that enough motivation to dust off your Wii?

[-Ryan]

Well dang, just list half the world of gaming, why don't ya ... xD

 

What's that Epic Mickey game like?

[CAV of Gang Green]

Oh, and I forgot to mention the two Endless Ocean games. Great games to relax to after an intense session of CoD.

You can paint and thin out anything in the entire game. You can find a gloomy area and paint it full of life, or you can thin out someone's house and watch them throw a tantrum at you.

[soup]

I got a laptop, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Black Ops and some money from my family. My boyfriend got me a bracelet and some perfume. :)

 

Also my grandma got me Resident Evil Afterlife as a late Christmas present :)
