    Hey there everyone!
    You get a brand new CAAAAAAAAAAAARRR!!
    ...Just kidding~!

    ANYway, list what you did/received/gave for the holidays! I'm surprised there hasn't been a post about this yet! And if there is, I must have missed it but I pretty much ripped apart the forums trying to find one.
    I say "holidays" because not everyone celebrates Christmas, so if you celebrate something different, enlighten us as to what you do! (In before Robonnukah! >D)

    So!
    I'll start.

    For Christmas, I didn't really BUY anything 'cause I'm broke as crap (no hours at the job). I DID however, give away a LOVELY teaset and candleholders for White Elephant, and received an 8-piece screwdriver set from White Elephant. I gave that to my mom for her birthday tomorrow. What would *I* do with a toolset? Haha.

    As for what I GOT:
    Some nifty nightwear, gas Cards for my thirsty-as-heck-car...

    And, oh...A Toshiba 32" LCD High-Definition Flat Screen TV~! <3

    It was the only thing I asked for. I'm SOOO happy I'm off my 15 inch 8-year-old Phillips TV/VCR (the VCR of which was BROKEN so I couldn't even watch Mulan D: ).

    I broke it in with a few games of MNC, and in the night I played Just Dance 2. xD
    It'll take some time for me to get used to it, so if you see me off my game if you play me, that's why. xD

    So what did everyone else get?

    YEAH!

    This is how badly distorted my old tv was:
    When people go into game chat while in a party, you know how the icon changes? I thought it changed from a black speaker to a white speaker. That's how it looked on my tv.

    Turns out it just gets a little hexagon thing near it--no color change at all. As I'm sure you know.
    So when I saw it for the first time on my new tv, I was like "What's that strange icon mean?"

    xD

    I got a few things, a bit of money, Mass Effect: Redemption, Final Fantasy some big roman numeral number here, Fable III controller (that works beautifully compared to my old one) and a Betty Paige Queen of Hearts book. I think Betty Paige was my favourite, after all she is like one of my ultimate idols along with Lyudmila Pavlichenko. Oh my dad also helped me repaint my nails for Christmas, trying to play MNC with Grec that one day ruined some of the paint and I can't use my hands very well to paint with :p My Christmas was interesting overall cuz I spent a good deal of it crying over homesickness for Korea lol

    I don't like talking about what I give since I don't think it's my place to say what other people recieve, but I gave love and flowers for the most part, AKA girly Christmas presents xD

    Also Jen, that's an awesome car! I loooove the colour <3 What's the MPG on it?

    I care about MPG, that's why I have a Prius xD Honestly, if I didn't care about cost or MPG I'd buy myself a Alfa Romeo Spider, now THAT'S a sexy car. It's jizz in pants worthy... http://www.alfaromeo.com/com/cmsen/mode ... WebCrawler

    Yeaaaaah, I love me some Subies but not the newer models. Idk something about the styling I don't like.

    It's an Asian made car do you really need to ask if it gets good gas mileage? :lol:

    [Edit]
    Also Jane awesome gifts! I have always wanted the ME Comics. A few people told me not to 'cause they suck but I told they couldn't. I am such a big fan of the ME Universe that I know I would enjoy them.

    It's a turbo, it gets horrible gas mileage. I thought you loved Subarus...you should know this.

    I love Redemption even though panels and story seems choppy at times. It also bridges ME1 Liara to ME2 Liara so I feel more at ease. Though her personality is still a tad of a jump between the two but I love ME so it's forgiven xD

    There's also three novels. Those are what I really want and they expand the story even more.

    No no no. You want a car that makes you asplode every time you see it, you go for a Lotus

    As for me, I don't really like asking for things for christmas, so I just told people clothes to make them stop bugging me. So I got some socks, shirts, a nice hoodie, some pants... not exciting at all. =)

    and jen: MPGs are a measurement of how lame a car is, more or less.
