That's all I got. I have a few presents waiting for me in Sydney which I should be getting soon. I'm not sure what they are, but I'm excited about it almost as much as I am excited about going back to Sydney. However, one present that I do know I am getting, is my travel expenses to Sydney paid for me.
I got...
Money/gold(of which I managed to buy myself a DS)
Mein Kampf by Adolf Hittler
Pirate thingy
Cookies
Cell phone
and other stuff.
So far:
Digital camera with photo printer
Predator 1 and 2

I hope you read Mein Kampf. It wasn't cheap. :grrr:
So far, I've gotten:
$70 from two sources (combined)
Stella Deus from Ant
Constantine, A Chernabob Pin, and AVP Cards from Joe (Darksong X)
Cookies from Lauren (Joe's Girlfriend).
So, what did everyone manage to get? I picked up a cool $120.00 USD at my grandma's last night, and am simply waiting now to get out to see what I got. I know I got one of the following:
Logitech G15 Keyboard
or
Logitech G5 Mouse
Specs:http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/US/EN,CRID=2142,CONTENTID=10715
Beyond that...I know I've got a Fullmetal Alchemist calendar incoming (:-/), and a spindle of blank CD's (wtf parents, I pirate DVD's now, ugh.)
6:12AM - I awake after a groggy sleep of 5 hours.
6:23AM - I am up on my computer, offically.
6:37AM - This thread begins.
6:56AM - Family, for the first time ever, does not wake up to me flushing the toilet or opening my squeaky door. I must wait for them.
Merry christmas too me:
Xbox Controller S
Mobile suit gundam 0083: Stardust Memory
Office space
Blind Guardian: Through the looking glass DVD
Dream Theater: Scenes from a memory
Dragonalnce: The Doom Brigade (Hard-bound)
Fender Starcaster starter kit (hooray for 3 amps!)
Dell DJ 5GB
50 dollars
This is what I got (some of the stuff I bought for myself :D):
Xbox360
Call of duty 2 (360)
Kameo (360)
Blind Melon CD
Jimi Hendrix t-shirt
Neon-lit guitar
and some virtual boy stuff
Clothes
Money
Dunlop Rotovibe (yay!)
SKB Pedalboard (yay!)
Possibly a TC Electronic G-Major (^_^_^_^)
8:31AM - I am fairly pleased.
I got the keyboard, and am happy to find that it has plugged itself directly into all of my favorite apps. Here are the pluses:
* - Extremely quiet when typing
* - Backlit with blue neon, and is EXTREMELY bright
* - 18 Keys that can be programmed with out of game macros, 3 profiles for each that can be switched between, (18x3=omfg)
* - A FU[color=white]CK[/COLOR]ING LCD!!! Plugs right into iTunes and showd current track listening, which I think is the best part. Has intergrated track controls to control music when in-game. Also moniters CPU and RAM useage, and shows date and time.
The keyboard is god. It's massive, but is god, flat out. Everyone needs one.
In other news, I got enough money to get an LCD moniter, more RAM (512ish, maybe a GB)
Anyway, time to play HL2 and WoW on this thing. I'll have to get the mouse later, meh.
Other stuff that I got:
Borders Gift Card - 25 Bucks
Borders Gift Card - 30 Bucks (Grandparents > Parents)
New computer chair
Rolly Mat for Chair
Money for my Sidekick II (it's prepaid, w00t.)
2 Calendars (Fullmetal, Napoleon Dynamtie [???])
Chocolate (all going to my girlfriend, I hate chocolate)
CD-R spindle (I guess I can make KVCD's :-/)
And that's all that I really remember
Oh, and new pants and socks, HELL yes.
Sadly, I didn't receive my two front teeth, but I am, now, an owner of the following items:
- Digital Cam, 4.0 MegaPix, 5x Opt Zoom
- Priniting/Charging Dock
- Cologne/Deodarant/Toileteries inc (ACNE Meds, Gum, Hairbrush, Razors, etc)

Does the Christmas season make people blind?
I got...
- A new and nice wallet
- Sim City 4 (not recieved yet but I know I got it)
- Money
- Smooth clothing ;)
- Gamecube
- A lot of little things like guitar strings and candy...
-Wallet
-New Leather Coat (old one was wearing out)
-Money ($130)
-$300 down on the PS3 at Gamestop (Planning on taking off, don't really want it and if I ever decide I do, I can purchase later)
-Penn State Clothes
-$50 Gas Card
-Mario Strikers (Gamecube)
Good christmas I'd say. The amusing part is I sold my Gamecube yesterday so Strikers is no good to me lol.
Besides the Gamecube was lacking play time at my place. I needed the cash. Cash is always good. Video games are amusing and all but hell I live in the Real World. Lets face it... Money is tight at times.
From Friends
> New Sketch Pad w/ complimentary drawing
> Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. My friend's totally cuckoo for this game and wanted me to have it so we could link.
> Cologne... k.
Relatives
> Google T-Shirt.. I don't even really use Google. Probably won't wear it much, sadly.
> Candies... some crazy, awesome Ukrainian ones from our old-flame family, also Ukrainian, which owns a grocery store selling, you guessed it, Ukrainian goods.
> Full Metal Alchemist Christmas Tree Bauble. My cousin is newly moved into Arizona and we haven't gotten much time to get to know each other, but for Christmas, she got everyone in the family custom Baubles made from clippings of magazines or other pictures stuck on with a special paste. Kind of a crude description, but they were really neat. Mine, Full Metal Alchemist themed, she'd had the idea for from a short conversation about the show as she explained how she'd had to paint the characters onto a light switch frame for some kids. She wasn't sure if I'd like it, but I was thrilled since it was anime-related, where-as I normally get just game stuff.
> $100 total in gift money. Always good.
Immediate Family: Video Games
> Sly Cooper and the Thievius Racoonus
> Sly Cooper 3: Honor Among Thieves
> Viewtiful Joe (lol, just now getting it for myself)
> Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time
> Sonic Rush
Immediate Family: Clothes
> Grey Shirt
> New Black Dress Pants
> New Striped Dress Shirt
> Socks and Undies... It's just not Christmas without them.
Immediate Family: Misc
> Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 2006 Day-by-Day Calandar. My contempt for the films are not enough to appreciate it, it is pretty neat.
> Harry Potter "Slytherin" Pillow. Not my favorite house, but they said it was pretty much the only one they saw. Meh, still cool. Might collect the others if I find them.
> Bowling LCD Game. Kind of wtf, but it does look neat.
> Box of CoCo Puffs. We each get a sugary cereal every year since we're normally restricted to whatever's healthiest. This year it was just an individual serving box, but still good to have.
> My annual tin of Pirouettes. I'm the only one that gets them, probably because my mom knows I'm the only one who'd share with everyone else.
I'm very happy. Merry Christmas, everybody.

F*ck Christmas and its commercialism. But I still want presents. :(
I wonder if a trip to England counts?
Here is my list of things:
- New portable DVD player
- new CD player
- X-Men Legends II
- $200
- Fantastic 4 DVD
- I Robot
- Evangelion complete collection
It's all good for me. :cool:
This is my list from Christmas part 1(GF's house)

3. Call of Duty(GF bought it to replace the one stole from my apartment)
4. The same candy and do das that Linko got
5. Movie tickets :)
6. $20
...either Jan 1 or Jan 2 Christmas part 2 will begin. I will be going to both of my parents houses. I already know what my mom and step-dad got me. Laptop and $4000 to buy a truck. I have to repay the 4K, but it is a nice gift.
Remo Weatherking Pinstripe drum heads for my 12", 13", and 16" toms.

Christmas has really changed.. It used to be religious but now it seems more like a commercial holiday more than anything. I love seeing Aethiests who are obviously anti-God celebrate christmas. I mean sure it's been proven that Jesus probably wasn't born December 25th, but thats besides the point. The Point is it was religious and now it's all commercial. **** those capitalists and their **** ideals.
Brother-Mp3 player
Spedy-Animal Crossing:Wild World
Mum-Clothes, socks, aftersahve,chocolate,money
dad-yet to get it. Shaving stuff ;-*

$50 Borders gift card
$100 Best Buy gift card
An additional $250
Assorted chocolates
A "Seattle's Best" coffee mug (been using it for the past two days!)
I didn't really ask for anything, seeing as we weren't too keen on the "Christmas spirit" this year. I'm looking forward to buying some CDs and games that I want, though. I prefer receiving money to buy what I want instead of asking other people to get it for me.
Edit: And my buddy Chris just gave me the Happy Tree Friends "Winter Break" DVD. Score!
A few shirts, and a leather jacket.
Oh, yeah, and my grandparents have paid about 10k for my college tuition so far. Merry christmas.
[quote=Shin-Ra]American Beauty -- I rule!
You most certainly do. :cool: Oh, and Winter Solstice ftw.
[quote=Misoxeny]From what I've seen, it's just a very morbid set of murder, accidents, insanity, with a hint of rape.
Well yeah, if you want to go into detail.
An engagement ring, a condo, an mp3 player, a NeoGeo pocket, the entire collection of Sandman limited edition busts that I had wanted, the complete works of Nietzsche, some video games, clothes, money, etc.
I'd say I did really well this year, considering.
1 GB mp3 player and Everybody Loves Raymond season 1 on DVD.
Well over $600 in gift cards.
A second PSP.
Irregular Hunter X for PSP
NBA Live 06 for the PSP
and Me and my Katamari for the PSP.
Guilty Gear XX Midnight Carnival for the PSP
Loads more.
A second PSP? One wasn't good enough for you?!
Me neither.
I don't understand. Is there any advantage to owning two, or is it just greed. Maybe one advantage would be to own two copies of the same game and two PSPs then you could lend one to a friend and you could play multiplayer. Seems like a real waste of money to me though.
I got some Xbox360 games, a few shirts a Sega Dreamcast (yay! Been missing it as of late). And some gift cards also. :D
Shadow the Hedgehog, Animal Crossing: WW, and an XBox with about 30 or so games on the harddrive. Most of them are crappy, (Ex: Cat in the Hat.) but there's some good games on it, like Prince of Persia 3, Psychonauts, and Kong. I'm also oddly fond of Lego Star Wars.
Oh, I also got a fart machine.
Wait wait.

Seriously...
Hah, I had a Newton's Cradle at one time. Just make sure it doesn't get tangled or snap or anything cause that really sucks. Take it from me.
things I have received since then:
Daniel Keyes - The Touch
Author of Flowers For Algernon. I initially thought about returning it just to spite the person I received it from but it actually looks like a decent book.
What confuses me is that there's no R2-D2. it'd work in reverse.
"And this vaccuum cleaner magically turns into a robot!"
Have you seen the the General Grevious/giant wheel vehicle? It looks so badass.
Well, I got some of the rest of my present from my parents:
bird cage
stand for the new bird cage
two more birds
So, now that's four cages total (three, possibly four to go), seven birds total (tons to go!) and yeah.
