A new dvd/video combi player,
A new hairdryer ( I pretty much blew the last one up!!!)
Some bath stuff,
Chocolate,
Baileys minis,
Wine
And the obligatory socks and chocolate fondue set.

Happy holidays! =)

Let's see... I got:

A Zen Creative mp3 player (I've broken one mp3 player each year the last four years only months after buying them, so I do hope this one will last)
A good deal of money (I'm going to see Within Temptation live in Oslo, now nothing can stop me! *mad laughter*)
Black hair dye x2 (from my mother, actually - I was surprised)
Some expensive, italian shampoo thingy
Jewelry
Candles
Underwear (which I threw away because I'd never use it anyway - I guess it must've been a joke anyway)

That's what I can recall at the moment.

Scary Christmas! I asked for nothing this year, but my parents always get me things anyway. I got:

a red Bela Lugosi 'Dracula' t-shirt
an Egyptian Book of the Dead
an electric black plastic skull that that acts as a lamp
a zippo lighter that says 'The Dark is Afraid of Me'
a gift card to guitar center
and I think thats about it.

Even though I didn't ask for anything I still got some rad stuff. My dad insisted on filling the ligher for me and he put too much fluid in it. I went to light a cigarette and it practically blew up in my face resulting in the loss of all of my nose hair/a little bit of my head hair on the left side.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa (riiiiiiight...), Happy Winter Solstice, (and a Festivus for the rest of us... heh...), and a good day to all whose celebrations I have forgotten...

I got three awesome hats
some pretty awesome boots (customizable! ::breaks out the safety pins...)
New black jeans

and my boyfriend got me good... (not THAT way, ya pervs!!) He gave me this HUGE bag from Hot Topic (and subsequently received an "evil glare of impending doom" from me...)

When I looked in the bag, it was full of anime gear and a giftcard from Suncoast! There was also a gift card from Hot Topic, (but I didn't mind that because they have OK accessories...)

I got bath stuff, a pedicure set, cookies, candy and a poker set. I also got a lot of gift certificates to diners. It is funny, because I rarely eat out. Probably the only time is when family is in town. Other than that, if I had a date, they pay for dinner. It is almost an insult. (Don't worry. Found someone willing to buy them off of me, so going to get the cash and go shopping during all the holiday sales.)

Merry Christmas everyone.
I got a bunch of caffeinated stuff, like candy and soap.
So I'm like buzzing.

That, and a classic car calendar, a razor, and I'm aiming towards a new computer.

Well ok so everything eventually calmed down so now I have time to actually write. Ok so lets see, this year I got:
a new watch(I always seem to break them...), wallet, some of those scratch off lotto tickets(woo hoo I won 3 bucks!), some money, contacts and my favorite probably, a new deck of tarot cards.

My boyfriend said he got me something but sadly I havn't seen him yet so not sure what it is yet..

Also I bought myself 2 new outfits, and tomorrow I'm buying myself a mp3 player.

Though it is technically the 26th, Merry Christmas everybody!
