Santa already came and brought me a new G1.

I'm a happy camper.

Some time with my family and friends and a nice meal together.

Same here, I'll be seeing my family for the first time since I moved out to California in August. Thanksgiving is going to be a lonely weekend for me, with all of my friends going away. :(

I'd definitely love:

1) Applecare LOL
2) Gary Fisher mountain bike
3) JBL Creature II speakers
4) White Loafers
5) Canon 450D
6) Pair of black jeans
7) Nice belt
8) Leather wallet
9) Poster frames to hang up my long overdue posters
10) Left 4 Dead(PC), CoD5(Mac) and Starcraft(PC)

Unfortunately, I think my parents can afford that, and I'd be getting most of 'em myself =/

Santa won't be visiting me this year :( Same as the last few years I suppose.

So I decided that I will be my own Santa and get myself a gift. Pretty sad.

My list:

1) A new phone, my current one is falling apart.

I hate the holidays. No family, no friends close by. Just some fish =/

Yes, I am stuck here in Columbus for Thanksgiving. I am pretty sure all my roommates are going to be home. So it will be just me. And an empty apartment.

Will cheesybanana survive? :D


I just want a couple of things:

Smith-Victor | FL3 Fluorescent Flood Light with Ceramic | 401020 <-- perhaps two of those


Chances are that's all I will ask my parents for... I might get a film scanner some time. I'll be shoveling snow for $10 per driveway this winter, so I'll be able to purchase some stuff on my own. :)

I hear ya man.. I haven't gotten anything for Xmas in the last 4 years.. I hate the holiday, makes me want to hang myself in front of some one. I hate this blasted "my wang is bigger than your wang" holiday.

The only thing I liked about it when I was younger, was the time I got off school. Now it's just "meh."

At least this year I'll have my girl with me..

But in terms of getting stuff, it's probably slim-to-none that I'll get anything.

Ha! Finally, someone who hates the holidays as much as me. It's actually quite depressing. At least you have your girl though.

I just have my room mate but that doesn't really count...

On the bright side, at least I don't hafta do "Christmas" shopping and I actually get stuff I want since I'm the one buying it. :Evil:

Christmas became much more fun again once I had kids.

Well, since I'm sending back the G1, Santa really isn't getting me much of anything.

I think I might get some cash now, and with that, I may pick up an iPod touch.

(For future reference, the G1, not as cool as I expected it to be after a week of use.)

Nice Family Christmas with probably some simple gifts.

The past 2 Christmases my family has gotten Krystal (my fiance) more presents than me, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. I wouldn't have it any other way!

Most definitely! Xmas shopping is for suckers. I usually ended up buying whatever I wanted, providing I could afford it at the time.

It really ticked me off when my mom would ask "what would you like for Xmas?" .. I'd say "nothing," and she'd get super-mad. Later on, she'd complain about how she couldn't afford much at all for xmas and got all depressed about it.

I said I wanted nothing, solution to the problem? I don't know.
