haha. Yeah well, pretty much. I haven't been able to tear myself away from the new super mario brothers game yet. I had to force myself to wait until finals were over to open it because I knew I would never stop playing

That game was good... but no replay.

Oh man, I love Guitar Heroes. My old roommate and I got pretty plastered while playing and knocked the controller out of the PS2 and the funniest message popped up. "You are rocking out too hard! Please check the controller connection". Rocking out too hard

I've been playing the game since day one!

Just not my copy.

I've seen the mess that is Freebird, towards the end. Let's just say that, as of now, I can clear 1/3 of the expert difficulty. That's not how it should be. I'll be sure to beat the rest of the tunes now that I got my own copy!

pretty much the same. My mums broke, my dad & brother got me my present as a birthday/xmas thing since my birthday was last month, but i did get this

oh I lie. my auntie & uncle went to london & got me some chocolates from harrods. they got a whole selection though, i only like strawberry/orange cremes

I might treat myself to a Wii when I have some money & when the UK has some stock at non-ridiculous ebay prices. Other than that, i've bought for my family

some boots for my mum (she chose, i paid)
a freeview box with HDD recorder for my nana who can't work her sony vhs
some sweets for my dad, and some USD for his carribean holiday
chocolates for my auntie & uncle & money for my 2 cousins
wine for my auntie
bottle of wine each for other auntie & uncle + leaded crystal wine glasses

and since I found out yesterday that my brother & his g/f are now engaged, I'll have to find something for them. Thankfully as they're in canada I can play the 'i'll give it when i see you' card

I brought my family a sack of coal, some sticks, a bag of satsumas and some brazil nuts. Oh and a giant potato for Christmas Dinner.

I got in a couple of hundred quids worth of captial bonds. Not very inventive but I can't be bothered searching out prezzies for people this year.

just had my company christmas party yesterday...

yea i got trashed lol

anyways we did a huge secret santa for $10 gift and i originally got a small bottle of vodka...our president said HEY NOW EVERYONE BRIANS GOT LIQUOR SO IF YOU WANT TO EXCHANGE WITH HIM I"M SURE YOU'LL ENJOY IT.

I was hiding in the back when one of the girls in my group got a Draft Dodger, it's like those things you put at the bottom of a door to stop the draft coming in...anyways she saw me hiding and said I WANT THE LIQUOR lol so she changed with me ... crap stuck with a door draft thingy...no one's gonna want this one lol but lucky for me, my apartment has these old wooden doors to the balcony and there is ALWAYS a draft on the floor so it actually had a purpose for me. Was really happy about it until after the end of the secret santa or gift exchange game whatever you want to call it, the president goes...ok everyone we decided to throw in a few GAG gifts and we wanted to see who stuck around to "end up with them". And guess what one of the GAG gifts was the door drafter, so being that i got the GAG gift, I also got a $100 american express gift card....WEE WEE!

I got invited to go shopping at the Nike employee store. They carry all the latest Nike gear at half price. I bought myself a sweet track suit, and a really nice zip-up sweater. Yay for knowing people who can hook you up with things! Merry Christmas to me!

by any chance do you still have this connect?

i'm looking for the Nike x Homegrown Amsterdam exclusive Air Max 90's. There were only released in Europe but I heard that Nike Friends and Family have the options to open market exclusives as well.

Orange pair is Homegrown Amsterdam Quickstrikes - limited to 24 pairs world wide

For my bday/xmas I got some snowboarding gloves and a helmet and then some small random gifts from friends... lots of people also took me to dinner and bought me drinks when we went out, which is my favorite part

But the big present for my bday/graduation/xmas combined this year from my parents is the promise of financial help during my internship in Switzerland next summer

I got a very nice garlic press, pepper mill, and other assorted high quality Williams Sonoma kitchenware from Myra's mom

Probably some of the best gifts I've gotten in years - They've gotten an immense amount of use already!
