The 2008 version! First off, I'd like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas or Happy whatever you're celebrating this time of year. The holidays aren't all about gifts, but we can't deny that we get them. So how about we share what we got this year? This is not a thread to flame other people because they got more than you or they got less than you or whatever. It's just for fun and maybe you'll get some good gift ideas for next year. :P I'll go first! - a pair of pajama pants from Hollister
- a Peacoat from Hollister (my gift to myself and I had never shopped at Hollister before now but I kind of like their stuff! But I hardly buy new clothes anymore, thrift stores are the wave of the future! :P)
- some Bod fragrance spray
- My Secret: A PostSecret Book!
- iHome IP9
- a pair of black/white converse because my old ones were getting ragged!
- a double shower head!
- money, obviously
- Starbucks gift card
- more money
And I'm going to a white elephant party tomorrow! So now it's your turn. What did you get? :)

- A Christmas tree. Because I didn't decorate my appartment
- A saw. Because I still have to saw a piece of a cupboard, so it fits properly in my storage room
- Lots of sweets and chocolate. Because I <3 sweets and chocolate
- No idea how it's called: A thing to hang up your coat. Because after one year I still didn't have one
- A lock for my bike
We never do much with presents on Christmas 'cause we have a different day for that here. But this year they wanted some presents under the tree and this is what I got. As you can see, it was mostly for *censored* and giggles.

- Mirror's Edge
- A 32 in. TV
- A beeping whistle locator for your key (that's been going off every thirty seconds since I turned it on)
- Most importantly (more important than a giant TV?): A collection of books by my favorite author that I haven't read before. 'Tis truly a blessed holiday.
...giant television's okay, too, I guess. Mirror's Edge is pwnful up the arse through to my eyeballs. Best game I've played since Left 4 Dead. No, wait.. better.
