And a very happy nondenominational celebration of the changing of the solstice to everyone who doesn't celebrate Christmas.
I got a marshmallow shooter, a Link pez dispenser knockoff by nintendo, some twizzlers, some sunflower seeds, and I got to see my baby brother and my mommy :D
How about y'all?
Fine. Ignore my other Christmas thread.
I got a Chocolate orange (YEHS!) a copy of CANAAN on DVD, A copy of Gunslinger Girl il teatrino (an anime i've been putting off buying for like... YEARS.) a $50 gift card to Barnes and Noble's and a $50 credit at my local import store where I usually buy anime (Since it's usually only like 20-30 dollars for a full season/series of anime there.)
I also got Mad Libs, which I immediately filled up with only the words "boobs" and "poop" alternatingly.
A new toothbrush since my old one tasted like a nasty sneaker.
(going to and got) Get new headphones (it's part of my "style") from my Grandparents and my girlfriend (Yes, Ko-chan said she's getting me Headphone like Yosuke's from Persona 4) and she say she's going to make me a scarf.
I'm making her a romantic novelge based on our romance up to this point.
I also plan on getting several new volumes of manga (Kimi ni Todoke, I'm finally gonna get caught up on you, you too Spice and Wolf)
That's about all this Christmas, I should be able to get Gurren Lagann and/or FLCL from my import store with my credit, so I'm totally happy.
Anyone else want to share?
Edit: I also got a totaly of 640 gigabytes of storage data added to my computer through external HDDs. So that's a major plus.
Tach, I has your Christmas present to me later? Kthnxbai.
Sorry man, I checked the GD and didn't see another Christmas thread-- guess I didn't see it when I was doing my browsing through other boards :\
Also, your Christmas present is in the mail, along with a check for $760,000.
Shipping time estimated at 97 years.

I'll see you on FB.
25 people from my family came here at 3 and they just left. x_x As for presents, I got roller blades, a Finale music composure software, $25 to GameStop, $90 cash, candy corn (for teh lulz), and an incredible black Cannonball soprano saxophone. It's so beautiful. X33333333333
Oh, and I also got a present from Girugamesh- A mp3 preview of the song Destiny (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0ssMv8qsB0) from their new album GO, coming out on 1/26. It's not great, but not as bad as I thought it was going to be. >_> There's also a PV preview, but it's only 12 seconds long. XD
For Christmas, I got nine hours of sleep (I hadn't slept in over 48 hours due to traveling home), chocolate, junk like that.
Also, three hats.
A stereotypical Australian hat.
A furry hat that scene kids wear.
And a New York hat. Finally, I have something to remember it by.
I got some glow in the dark shirts that I'm TOTALLY wearing around the Bronx at night once I go back.
I got Punch Out! Which I need to play obsessively before I go back to my Wii-less dorm.
I got three movies that I am very happy about.
The Blues Brothers. RAWHIDE
The Goonies. HEY YOU GUYS
The Russians are Coming, The Russians are Coming.
...
Haven't seen that one yet, but it looks funny.
I got some kind of statue of liberty artsy decoration thing that I'll probably never get around to building.
I got Guesstures, that'll be fun to play at acting school.
I got a watch that doesn't make me look homeless.
I got a pair of jeans. It's safe to go into public now.
More pajama bottoms. It's safe to go to bed now.
Probably more stuff. I'll take pictures later.
Actually, I just got an idea. I'll be making a video.
Let's see if I can remember at the top of my head...
A laptop fan
An art book with creator discussion of Avatar: The Last Airbender
A Hylian Shield replica
Gloves
An iTunes card
A cactus (wasn't really able to bring it back with me, anyway, and I wouldn't know where to keep it here, to boot :( )
So yeah, happy Minishmasukah, everyone! ...Merry Christmas, too. XD
Finally got myself a Wii for Christmas. Working on unlocking characters for Brawl at the moment.
Also got Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood for the PS3.
The main things I got were an iPod Nano, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II, and a bunch of movies. The Force Unleashed II is a lot of fun and has a cool storyline, but it is WAY too short.
Well, here's what I got.
Christmas Eve, I got a set of glass cups with Beatles album covers on them from my aunt and uncle and I got $10 from my grandpa. My sister gave me a shirt with this picture on it (http://img547.imageshack.us/img547/9971/dndtf2.jpg) (I got one last year but when it got washed all the screen-printing came off with it) and a set of Nook Color anti-glare screen protectors.
What I got today:
- A Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood ouroborus necklace and an FMA 2011 calendar
- A Hard Day's Night Collector's Edition on Blu-Ray and the Beatles' complete Ed Sullivan Show appearances
- A Weezer t-shirt and jacket
- Guinness World Records 2011
- Some stuff for my car
- Some new earrings
- John Lennon's books In His Own Write and A Spaniard In The Works (in a single volume)
- The new Rolling Stone issue with unreleased John Lennon interviews, along with two issues of (I think) Guitar World, one with a picture of John Lennon on the cover and the other with Paul McCartney
- A Nook Color, of course, and a protective case
I was supposed to get Blue Album Deluxe but it never arrived in the mail. D:
Overall, though, pretty great Christmas. Yesterday I hacked my Nook Color and I now have a fully-functional Android tablet. :D
We were up in Pennsylvania for Christmas, except for my sister, who spent it with the in-laws, and my brother, who didn't want to miss work for four days, so we're opening our gifts tonight. But one of my aunts gave me a deck of Pokemon cards, which I decided to start collecting again. Now if only I could get my friend into Pokemon....
We were going to go a little less money-spendy spendy this year, so I got nothing too incredible like you guys.
-Pokemon Battle Revolution (I'm a little late, but okay.)
-Eagle sculpture
-I'm eventually gonna get "The Three Musketeers" when the book store reopens
-My Dad is working on a custom built Guitar
-AND THIS (http://www.trueswords.com/silver-knights-silver-spiral-wrap-rapier-sword-p-387.html)
Sweet rapier, man. It's like it's something out of The Princess Bride. :D

INCONCIEVABLE!
Seriously though, it is pretty freaking nice.
That is nice. I really should start asking for swords myself.
Anywho, I got a couple of books. "The Stepsister Scheme" by Jim C. Hines, which I believe I mentioned in my Superbook topic, and "Bitten" by Kelley Armstrong. Finishing up books, I got the second volume of the Fullmetal Alchemist manga, which I already finished reading.
I finally got a charger and a memory card for my PSP, so now I can play Final Fantasy Tactics, assuming the PSP will ever read the UMD. I also got Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light, which is about as good as I thought it would be, given that it uses a brand new battle system. My dad renewed my subscription to GameInformer and got me a GameStop Power Up Rewards Pro card, which I need to activate.
Finally, my grandmother got me a plaque that reads "I have flying monkeys and I am not afraid to use them." I need to find a place to hang that up in my room.
If your plaque used "sniper squirrels," that would've been freaking epic. Well, okay, it's already freaking epic, but you know what I mean.
Lol HNS that is awesome.
I was in NY and NJ for the holidays.
Let's see ... I recieved money, clothes, lotion, food/candy, and this:

I know, I can't resist special/limited edition items for some reason, lol.
The NY Nintendo World store is fantastic, isn't it?
yes, yes it is.
