How were your holidays? So what did you get? From who? And what did you get for who?                               

All was well for me. A couple of relatives came over, we played Guitar Hero for hours until it was midnight and then we opened our presents.

Here is a few things I got.

iPod Touch and $65 iTunes money, from my mom and dad.
Rebuild of Evangelion 1.01 from my mom.
An ACDC jacket from my mom.
My uncle sent me Wolfenstein for the 360.

I feel bad because I wasn't able to get them anything. Next year I'll work extra hard to earn enough money to get what they want.

I got sick on Xmas day but I made the most of it.
ironically I spent the day alone, but nerding out and swearing at random n00bs and L33t players online via the following games:

Modern Warefare 2 - already getting war flashbacks in my sleep.  :-[
Borderlands - fighting Scags [mutant dogs] and other twisted mutants
Left for Dead 2 - good ol fashion zombie apocalypse
1 vs 100 - bragging rights for those who know WAY too much trivia
Sonic's Ultimate Game collection - because playing old school games = ftw.  :D

Blu ray trilogy of Resident Evil on Blu-Ray despite my ps3 being out on loan. :P

Lots of money... that im going to spend on bills  :-X

What I gave
Pajamas, blankets, MMO Gaming Mouse, Clothes, Jewelry and toys to various people.
Sometimes I'm glad I became a teacher.  Other times I wish I had simply become a ninja.

To be honest, my family and I didn't spend our Christmas yet... Due to work and other stuff. So, this week we'll be spending it.  ;D

Since I didn't spend it with the family, I ended up spending it with friends and relatives.

Presents from relatives:
$20 PSN card - niece <==> Got her Modern Warfare for the DS
Mario pajamas - nephew <==> Got him a Wario game for the Wii
Weather proof jacket - Aunt & Grandma <==> Helped them with dinner
-----
Presents from friends:
Nothing, just being with them is all I asked for.
We had a potluck instead. A few drinks here and there and among other things.  :D
-----
Possible presents from family:
Shirt and shorts - mom and dad
Mom, my bro and I are giving her a DVD/VCR player
Dad, my bro and I are giving him a new cellphone
LittleBigPlanet - bro <==> Later on I'm going to buy him Dante's Inferno - PS3 and Bioshock 2 - Xbox 360

I'm paying for our Dinner and movie.


- Shall I leave my mark whether it's good or bad?
- As long as people remember me famous or infamous,
- I  will remain and roam in this world Alive or Dead.

Mostly got money as a gift and bought my own stuff. I'd say this was an ok Festivus.

I forgot to mention that I also got $60 gift certificate at Claim Jumpers from my boss.  My boss is the BEST.
