An update:
I just went to my grandma's house, I got:
1. Super Mario 64 DS (it's so cool!)
2. A Series of Unfortunate Events (Book #1)
3. When my grandfather died just recently, he left an ENORMOUS collection of coins to his son, who gave me $46 worth of that collection, not including the very rare coins, such as an 1887 Sillver Dollar or a 1929 Silver Dollar also. I'm going to see how much those are worth sometime at the coin collector's store at the mall.

We don't really celebrate Christmas in the "here's something Santa gave you" style. I did get about five fancy glasses for drinking red wine and port and other heavenly nectar. That's about it, so following i90east his thought pattern, I'm an raving alcoholic huh.gif

GamblingCat, if that's what your normal Christmas looks like, you're being SPOILED. Not that almost everybody here get a whole bundle of presents, but...

Whatever, pay no attention to me, we Dutch are famous for being careful with our money. wink.gif

Huzzah! THREE people with slim Christmases! *high fives Djibriel, too*

I'm really quite happy with the single item I got (printer), 'cause it's given me a new dimension in the way I make my art. happy.gif A thread for that might be coming soon, but don't hold your breaths... unsure.gif

My best gift and perhaps the only one worth mentioning is my new 20gb RCA Lyra Jukebox.

Or an MP3 player, whatever you want to call it. I only half got it for Christmas, because:

A, I had to pay for part of it because it was so damned expensive

and B, because I got it like 2 weeks before Christmas.

But it's still a really cool gift. biggrin.gif

--------------------
Wow. 1,000 posts.

I miss you all now that I'm in boarding school! ;_;
