What Did You Get for the Holidays?

Post by asi1998 » 25 Dec 2012, 14:03

Heyo Everybody! Merry Holidays! Below is a place where you can share what you got for Christmas or any other Holiday you celebrate at this time. I celebrated Christmas and got the following:
Spoiler! :
  • 1. A new Griffin iPad case (my old iPad case was a cheap one that was half broken)
  • 2. A ton of clothes (Now I can look stylish again :P)
  • 3. A Greek book (now I won't completely forget the language)
  • 4. A .22 LR Martin Rifle (to learn to shoot)
  • 5. Skyrim
  • 6. Assassin's Creed III
  • 7. Black Ops II
  • 8. A decent amount of cash (will go into my savings for whenever I need it)
Well, that is about it for me. I really love what I got! What about you?

Clothes and such
And a new wallet, since I lost my old one somehow and was using one I made out of duct tape.

Yeah. Most of my money came from various extended relatives and such, and the second xbox was paid for entirely by my mother's boyfriend.

Guess it's a bonus when you have family in the mafia owning various bits of property/restaurants/real estate. :?

Nice to see the recession has not affected the middle classes at all despite all that whining.

Got a little money in cards from my relatives, 3 different sets of chocolate, a deodorant stick, some new PC headphones and some credit on Steam.

Not a bad haul. I think.

I'm thinking about buying a PS3 with my Christmas money for exclusives. Especially Tales of Graces f, Tales of Xillia, and other JRPGs. Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper, and other series are just bonuses.

Not sure if it is a good thing that I considered the Secret Santa gift to be better than the gift I got IRL.

Damn you, I thought I was the only one who received such commodities this year.

I got a new watch (old one was busted like eight months ago), some cash, clothes, y'know the usual, and a regulation-grade poker set to facilitate a growing gambling "hobby." Onwards to riches, bitches, and cash money.

I used some of my christmas money to buy Tales of Symphonia. $70 for a used copy of an 8 year old game. God damn.
