I'll count in some presents from my brothers which we'll use all together.

Bluray discs of:

Snow white
Bolt
Pinocchio
Ice age 3... However with this movie the sad thing is that the disc was not included :( The present got bought months ago so it's not likely that the shop will hand us one after all.

For the rest we got a couple of PokÈmon Cards which was nice for our collection.

I got a guitar and Disney Monopoly (which I bought myself and my mom told me it had not arrived yet :p )

And from Tim I got an ornament for in the christmas tree which was really quite sweet.

I got a lot more expensive gifts than I expected I would, but considering how happy I was with them, I figure I don’t have the right to complain: :p

ï Two paleontology books: The Rise of Amphibians and Dinosaur Odyssey

ï A flipô digital camcorder (I didn’t even ask for one, so this was a major surprise! :o)

ï The first five seasons of MythBusters on DVD :wow :DD :smile

ï A little ammonite fossil (about 4/5 of an inch in diameter)

ï A box of cordial cherries (yum! :P:)

ï A small, bell-shaped cheese grater (this one, left by Santa, was too weird not to mention. :lol Still, I love putting extra cheese on my frozen pizzas, so it’s a practical gift, anyway.)

As far as I can recall, I don't think I've ever gotten this few things, but I'm not complaining.

- two pairs of pants
- a winter hat and a pair of gloves (though I think I'll hardly ever use them)

and for Bionicle related items:
- five books:
   - graphic novels 5, 6, and 7 (I don't yet have 1, 2, 3, or 4)
   - Raid on Vulcanus
   - The Legend Reborn (novelization of the latest Bionicle movie)

I actually didn't get any Bionicle sets. Then again, there really weren't many that I had asked for.

We aren't opening gifts until January 3rd when my sister is back home in the area, so it'll be a while before I write anything here.

Looks like many members earned many gifts this holiday season.

Nothing.....zilch.  My family wanted to save money this Christmas, so we didn't even celebrate it.  In fact, I just got up and it's ten minutes to 8:00pm here. :p I slept for 22 hours straight....right through Christmas day.  Since no clients made appointments today (big surprise), I got the day off and I slept right through it. :lol Now perhaps I can work on TheLandBeforeTime.org website all night, as I certainly can't go back to bed now.

What I would basically do if I got nothing, I would either go on-line and buy/download something or go out and buy something and call that my Christmas gift.  That way, I wouldn't feel so bad. ;)

It was actually kinda nice not to have Christmas this year.  I didn't have to stress over what to get people for Christmas and no money was spent unnecessarily.  I usually just end up getting my family computers, computer parts, or upgrades for their computers anyways.  I'm not opposed to doing this again next year.  I just got out of the shower and I'm feeling mighty fine.  I think I'll write for a bit and work on a couple of websites.

As to getting myself a gift....nah.  There's not anything I really need right now anyway.  I'd like to replace my 20" monitor with a 22", but I don't really count that as a "need."  I just bought an awesome laptop for $140 that I'll resell for $250 tomorrow.  I guess that could be my "gift." :p Then I gotta go buy 4 more laptops for this guy.  I should make about $100 profit on each.  He also wants me to fix his existing laptop, which I should be able to do for about $100.  In all, that's $610 in profit.  Not bad considering the slow times are after the holidays. :yes

As you get older, perhaps the gift receiving matters less.  Even if I received one thing or nothing, life would still go on for me. :)  Like I said, I'm a pretty humble person and don't need anything at the moment.
