If you've happened to have received any gifts from family members or friends that you don't mind sharing, then tell us all about it. Like I was expecting, we got a Wii, but instead of red, it's black. in edition, it came with two games- Wii Sports and... I don't remember. ;P A few other games were Sega Sonic All-Stars, Jurassic Hunter, and Cooking Mama for Wii. (heh... sisters.) I got a couple USB computer lamps- you plug them into your USB and I assume they're supposed to turn on or off with the tiny switch on the back... and that they do. The cord is a ton of fun to play with as well. O.o (I wouldn't need them if the helpdesk people hadn't disabled the small light at the top of my laptop screen, but you know how that goes.) In edition, I recieved 3 candy canes, and 2 candy cane containers- one: containing Hersheys Kisses, and the other containing Reeses Pieces. Since I don't like Reeses Pieces, I gladly gave it to my toddler sister. All of the above was from my mom and stepdad. ______________________ From my dad, I got 2 pairs of jeans, Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs for the DS, and a 100$ gift certificate to GameStop. In addition, my entire county (and my dad's) received 2 inches of snow. That's enough out of me though. Lets see what everybody else got.

Merry Clevemas! My Dad got me a Donkey Kong Country Returns strategy guide (because he plays it with me). Mom got me River City Soccer Hooligans (part of the Kunio series, my favorite non-DASH series) and some boxer-briefs (they are very comfortable and I am now a boxer-briefs guy). Together, they gave me $140 USD in cash! Woo!
I got them a Wii Remote charger, since theirs broke and they really like playing Dr. Mario every dang day. However, it isn't here yet, so I had to give them an IOU.
Maybe next year, I'll get what I really want. Maybe…

Here's what I got in a nutshell:
Hear Me OUT! board game, a Paper Jamz pink guitar, a book of 'Fairly Odd Jokes', and a bar of chocolate.

I got a good bit this year, myself. Lots of clothing.. Three pairs of jeans and a pair of cargo pants; three shirts: one comfortable dark blue long-sleeved t-shirt with a kind of cool pattern, one Office-themed t-shirt, and one Ninja Turtles-themed t-shirt. (I have two of these now!) Also got a pair of headphones. (Cheap little earbuds, but those happen to be just what I like these days) And a couple video games: Sonic Colors for DS and Monster Hunter Freedom Unite for PSP. (per Shift's suggestion — now I just have to get my PSP back..) Oh, and one of those memory-foam pillows that's supposed to be conform to the contours of the neck or something. I'm told it's good for people who toss and turn in their sleep — and I do that like nobody's business. (I used to sleep on the top bunk in my room. I woke up on the floor very often. I feel sorry for my cousin, who slept there.) I think that's everything. But yeah.. Tonight we visited with my mom's side of the family; tomorrow we're visiting with my dad's. Got family over, visiting and such; cousins mostly. It's nice to see them. This was probably a record turn out tonight as far as family parties go. Almost everyone was here, except a couple cousins who I believe are out of state.. It's pretty cool. I hope tomorrow will be as good. Being old is so weird. This is one of the only times a year I see some of my cousins here. I used to live with them; we'd see each other every. single. day. As a kid, it felt like they'd been around forever and they were never leaving. And now that's a distant memory. And they're almost all married and have kids and everything is all totally unreal. ∗ sigh ∗ Ah well. I see the forums have been relatively dead today, so I assume everyone else has been busy with family plans and such. If so, that's pretty cool. Hope your Holidays have been phun. Merry Christmas, Legends Station!

I'm gonna copypasta this from my post on the Starmen boards because I don't wanna type it all out again. I got... The Back to the Future 25th anniversary trilogy collection dvd thingy. And it's AWESOME. a black Starman jacketa little HD (720, not 1080, but whatever) video camera. It's some brand I've never heard of, but apparently it's better than most of the similar Canon cameras that are out now. (I had actually asked for a RED Epic 617 camera* sort of as a joke, since nobody I know would ever be able to buy something like that. I really was hoping for something like what I got though, since now my youtube videos can be in HD!) a 3 pack of these little knockoff nerf guns from Target (Thanks, bro ) Candy (and pocky) and a bunch of cash and giftcards. This was a pretty good Christmas IMO. *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:28k_RED_CAMERA.svg

Merry Christmas MMLS, I hope everyone had a wonderful day. ;D
My Christmas was very nice. I always have my own tradition of attempting to stay up all night on Christmas Eve playing one of the Legends games, and that's what I did this year for MML1. "Attempting" being the key word, I fell asleep so many times only to wake up, pretending like I never dozed off. Did that for the whole night and it was quite fun, just like every other year! Then I spent the rest of the day just finishing up the remainder of the game, then spending time with family.
For presents, most of it was clothes, which I appreciate because I'm starting to get sick of only wearing clothes from the clothing store that I work at part-time. For video games, I got Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs and Ys: The Oath in Felghana (Premium Edition). I love to read manga so my second brother bought me a gift card that I can use at Indigo/Coles/Chapters; my mom knows I love jewelry so she bought me a lovely watch and hoop earrings (oh, and perfume. She can never give me enough of that stuff haha). I got a ton of other things too, the amount really surprised me. :13:
I love Christmas; the snow, cheesy music, all of it (plus I'm sure the fact that I've made it centered around Legends has something to do with my enjoyment of it as well). I don't think I've ever had a bad Christmas yet. :12: Again, hope everyone else at MMLS had a fun-filled day!

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrated it! I got a lot of jewelry this year, but I'm not a big fan of it because I always either lose it or leave it in places where it just disappears. Tron, if you're still interested in trading either for the perfume, only one item was personalized this time . I got coffee, which I'll actually use, along with a mug with Mickey and Minnie on it, Toy Story 3, a sweater, a cookbook, Silly bandz, books, Warioware DIY, an out-of-print French comic book I've been searching for over the last two years, a pencil sharpener, and two free movie passes. And on top of that, I doubled my Legends 3 fund.

Finally my sig is time-appropriate! I'm still not changing it though Best thing I probably got was an acrylic keychain with a piece of the actual Toy Story film inside (Maybe not cool to some people but to a 3D artist it's a pretty fun thing to own)

Dream makes me laugh throughout the year if I ever notice his posts as I dig. I forgot to mention, I also got 40$ from relatives, plus a 20$ gift certificate to wal-mart. Now I have to resist the urge to buy Wii games... Must do it for Megaman! aw, what the heck. Pkmn Park and Epic Mickey never hurt anybody...
