two new belts
pajama bottoms to match a pair of silk underwear
a new umbrella because some mysterious person is always fucking stealing them and leaving them someplace
south park season 11
a prepaid visa card with a lot of money on it
a gallon of nestle quik
dave barry books
a dark brown sweater that i look delicious in
computer speakers

Yeah, I basically ask for junk I need or throw in an idea for something I'd otherwise buy myself in the near future. Pretty cynical about giving/receiving gifts in general outside of significant other, though I think my cynicism/indifference to Christmas came with age. I'm also boring and I plan on spending the visa on groceries until it's depleted, though there's about a 2% chance I'll buy Mario Kart Wii with it at some point. Eh. Make it 1%. I prefer eating.

Haha, I envy you guys.

My family has this weird thing about gifts: You don't get shit after you turn 14.

So I'm kinda left out now :(

Lol jk, I get money but not a lot. I doesn't help that I'm not that close to my family (aunts, uncles, etc).

I'm surprised you remember that Gameboy. Nah, that didn't happen, I got into an argument with my dad so I only got 600 of that money, and only got to spend 300 of it because my sis was all like "you should put it into a savings account Arec" which I doubt she put into a savings account because I haven't seen any papers and I don't make money to constantly put 25 dollars in it every month :D

Nice Otter, I got Shadow Hearts 2 for christmas and I'm loving it.

FOr Christmas this year, because I've got a Wii and there is no real game in demand right now, I just told my parents about four ps2 games that were like 10$ each on amazon and just get me those, instead of buying one Wii game for 50$.

So I got Shadow Hearts 2
Star Ocean 3 (this one was like 15$, the highest one)
Prince of Persia : The Sands of Time (sweet game)
Silent Hill 2 (scary)

Then there was this buy two games get one free deal at gamestop they told me so they got LOTR: The Third Age (played before but an underrated RPG gem sorta)

Then my other thing on the list was sweaters, not the things with hoods, just sweaters which I love wearing. Oh yeah and an Itrip because I'm sick of burning CD's for the car I always drive.
