What I received in the order I received them:

Now I won't be left out in the dark should I lock myself in the trunk. XD

He bought it from Best Buy and I'm tempted to ask BB if I can pay an additional $25 to do the B2GO deal. XD
* Twin-sized 66" x 90" "Vellux" Blanket, and two sweaters from my parents
I guess it's time to hit the gym again since the sweaters are size S D:

You forgot about ININ's gift! Or was that considered a non-simple gift? D:
Edit: Forgot about one gift.
not much:
cash
Super Mario Galaxy
Mario Party 8
A digital video camera, and a bit over a hundred bucks. I'm already planning for Fanime as you can tell.
This year, it was mostly money from my family.
From friends, I got a free game of pool, yummy lunch, paid tickets to an event (that I might not be able to go to. ;__; ), a momiji doll, a cute pair of mittens, clothes, a watch, a set of tea cups, mikan, and their time.
I gave to people:
To Mikey: A hoodie from Guess, a Tron Bonne figure, chocolate, and SHAMPOO REFILLS! \o/
To my parents: Cute slippers and a bath set.
To other friends: A wind-up sumo wrestling toy, a zombie playset, incense sets, a Munny, pet blankets, Gyakutan Saiban figures, Capcom figures, phone charms, a zippo lighter, a harddrive full of music, bags of candy and/or cookies, and papercrafts from /po/.
Oh, and I bought myself books to read. -ω-b
'Twas a good year. Spending the holiday on vacation with my boyfriend in SoCal with friends and his family. <3
Merry Christmas, peoples. ＼（＾∀＾）メ（＾∀＾）ノ
Anna Sui Pass Case. (Boyfriend)
hmm. Maybe my parents decided I didn`t need presents :X

Lol hey I resent that. Haha when I brought it home my mom was like...I know costco is cheap and all but...you end up wasting money if you buy things you can't use up.
Oh and an update for my gift list. My cousin ordered a 20" widescreen LCD monitor for me which arrived hours ago.

could be worse... Could be from some random guy you hardly know. (or like) XP
Whats more disturbing is the subliminal message your mom may be sending you. Like, "wipe your ass" or some shit. That would irk me, if I got new underwear from someone. ;>_> I'd be wondering about the how and why's.
I gots a PS3 for X-mas (hey hey, I hear you all snickering in the corner...it'll win..SOON! You'll see)...
I'm playing a lot of Call of Duty 4 and UT III...
