And the "tree" presents consist of... holy sweet zombie Jesus! A new TV and a freakin' iPod!

Stocking stuffers alone make up this photo. ($50 in movie theatre gift cards? There'd better be some good movies coming out soon.)

The stockings weren't exactly hung by the fireplace... heck, they probably would have fallen under their own weight anyway.

After! The ginormous box in the foreground is MINE. =)

I got 3 sweatshirts I had asked for, as well as beer and some new blankets for my bed. My mom got me a portable GPS too but I'm not sure if I need or even really want one, and she told me before I even opened it that its ok if I don't like, so we'll see.

 

... and... get this... a device to cook with! Dave should thank my mother.

Strep throat, a visit to the doctor, two shots, a black eye, busted lip, cracked tooth after a reaction to the shots made me faint and do a faceplant on the floor.....and a partridge in a pear tree. Top that!

Years of hockey without a mask, and I never looked like this after a game. One doctor visit, and I look like I just dropped the gloves with Tie Domi. Merry Christmas everyone!

- Korg X-50 Synthesizer (I had actually bought it 2 weeks in advance, but was not allowed to use it lol) + keyboard stand

- "Financial Aid" for the Airplane ticket to my USA trip in June

- Some spending money for that ^

- Seiko Watch

- Snake Skin Belt = HOT!

- 2 desperately needed pairs of shorts

- Back to the Future Trilogy Boxset

- Halloween I & II on DVD

- A 5 box tower of Candy

- The annual family joke of Socks.

I got quite a lot, seeing as I rarely get as much as I did this year.

 

I got:

- A 4 day trip to Disneyland Paris with my college and £100 spending money there,

- Darren Shans 'Demon Apocalypse' (Which I've already read...)

- Puzzle book

- Gremlins 1 and 2

- Box of chocolates

- Socks (lol)

- Family Guy calendar

- Double sided sticky pads (I've been whining about having 4 posters on my floor that need sticking up... Double sided sticky pads are hard to find)

- 'Learn 2 Drive' Theory help computer program

- £50 from various people

- Highway code book

- A free driving lesson worth £50

- a pair of gloves

- 2 big bags of Twiglets (My nan's a little insane... I do love Twiglets though)

- Flourescent jacket (for when I get a car)

- Wind-up torches (for the car again)

- *Hopefully* a TPR hoodie... If I can persuade my parents to buy me one...

- Time with my own family as well as seeing my unofficial Aunt (She used to look after me for 5 years while my mum and dad worked) and her family. We had a proper, top-notch banquet that took about 4 hours to cook, but it was worth it!

- and a few other Item I know I've missed.

 

I've actually not done that bad... It felt like nothing, but when it comes to a list, oh my God!

 

 

*EDIT* I also got Spirited Away... We hide our presents for fun... But I've just finished watching it and it's the first film to make me cry since the Titanic came out when I was about 8... It's been aa decade since I cried over a movie...
