I've opened my presents and such at my mom's house so far. I got some awesome stuff. If this thread turns into a "show off what you got for christmas" thread, I'll take some pics.

Generic holiday greeting here.

I got me Mario Kart DS , a lamp, a matress cover , a fan with cool spinny lights on it, candy, a lottery ticket (won 3 bucks, yay), an RC car, various photos and clothes, more candy, and a partridge in a pear tree. Oddly enough, no money.

Well, I got the optical mouse, like I thought, a green weather diary for 2006 (I knew I was getting this one as well, just forgot to mention it in the other thread. ), a pair of jeans, bedsheets, candy, a pair of socks, and 200kr + 500 kr = 700 kr, or approximately 103 USD, and a good laugh when my parents opened their gift from me.

I can't take any pictures, since I didn't bother to get new batteries for my digital camera.

I got 228 dollars in a new 30 dollar leather wallet (Perry Ellis). Bunch of leather stuff from my aunt/uncle period.

If I wanted to, I could slap someone with a wad of greenbacks.

Haha, I already had that!

I got two sweatshirts and a pair of pants.

I got a Fantastic Four comic collection book.

I got around $100 in money.

I got a small painting of Mickey Mouse.

Thatīs all I can remember at the moment. Iīll try to get some pics later.

Merry Christmas... although it is 10:48 as I type this.

Well, I got Animal Crossing: Wild World, a sketch book, Final Fantasy IV Advance, Robots (hilarious movie), a mini claw machine that picks up candy, a digital camera, and... umm... that was mainly it...

However, my brother and sister were very shocked when they saw that they got a DS for themselves. Now if they got their own copy of Animal Crossing, they will be having a lot more fun, considering that they suck at every other game (and they don't seem to get drifting in Mario Kart, so I win by a full minute... or lap them...).

To sum it up:

And I can't forget my iPod video, which I got a few months ago as an "early christmas present."

Two minutes before midnight, and I'm making a post in this..... A story:

When I was small, my family did not have much money at all. We were poor. Very poor. We lived in a 2 room shack in West Warwick, and each christmas, though I didn't know it at the time, was not always a merry one. My mother worked hard with my stepfather to keep us clothed and fed, and it happened, but we were never really provided for on the subject of toys at christmas. Nevertheless, we were too young to know, so we were not bothered by it.

But one year, when I was four, we were very low on money. I myself would have gotten only a small toy or two from my parents that year, because times were tough, and unbeknownst to me at the time, my parents were planning on having a third child.

So, christmas morning comes, I'm happy, my older sister is happy, and we go out into the living room, to find our parents ready to give us the gifts they had worked so hard to give us. And we were glad with what we had. However, it was then that we all heard a strange noise...

It was a siren. A fire truck siren. My older sister and I rushed to the window to see the truck...

On top of the truck, pimped out in the baddest red gear you could see, with a shoad of presents with our names on it, was the big man, Santa Claus himself. He burst into our house with his helpers, carrying mounds and mounds of toys, all for my older sister and I. Action figures, dolls, stuffed animals, our living room went from being a few pieces of furniture and a tree to a cacaphony of brightly colored gift wrap, piles of toys and clothes, and the very glad, widely smiling faces of a pair of toddlers who were driven to ecstacy because Santa Claus himself had come to them, they were such good little kids that year.

It... It was a charity fund, turns out... We were below the poverty line, and a local charity had given to us the lot of toys we had received that year. It was the greatest christmas I had ever had, and it was on the hands of every good-hearted person in Warwick that had felt the need to donate to us that year. It truly is a debt I can never repay.

Please, everyone on Acmlm's. Remember just what Christmas is about, remember the need to give. Jesus, whether you believe he was the son of god or not, gave his life, the ultimate gift in the name of helping everyone he loved, and we symbolize that not by buying toys and games and dolls for everyone, but by GIVING them to people. That's the important part, is to give. Be charitable. If you have spare change, or a few extra bucks to spare, then by all means, give it to someone. Feel the joy of putting someone else before yourself, and you will feel what christmas is really about. The goodness of the people who give helped change my life. I will never stop giving back.

Merry Christmas, everyone. Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Hannukah, Happy New year, all of those things. Just... Happy Holidays. Whatever you celebrate, I hope it's the best that you can get out of it.
