There was of course other stuff, but I'm sure you're not interested in the rest :P

Minimi

I got nothing  :'(  :'(  :'(

We do not do presents with christmas, because 1. christmas has some other meaning ;) (though i'd love to get presents) 2. We don't have the money... but still it's a very happy time together here with the family... and thats the most important thing  ;D

And my personal favorite, a brand new guitar amp. Dear sweat load this thing is amazing. My sister can hook up her keyboard to it, and it has a mic jack. And its all mixer and midi able! Hello new band. We'll be the next Hanson!

ScottDoom

A Canon PowerShot A80 digital camera.

I forget what else. I don't care. The girl I like is ignoring me now, or something. It's confusing. And a long story. This is probably the worst Christmas of my entire life. I do love my camera though...

i got a gamecube with several games (True Crime, Mario Kart, F-Zero GX, Pikmin, Tony Hawks Underground, and some nice shiny coaster with Zelda or something written on it) a few days before christmas cos i had to go buy it myself and couldn't be bothered to wait until christmas day...

bottle of Captain Morgan's spiced rum (mmmmm....)
several pairs of socks,
several pairs of underwear,
two sets of pyjamas (Only Fools and Horses and some Simpsons "Homer Sk8 Co." one)
some shower gel and deoderant combos,
and a toy dog that sings a song, moves it mouth and wiggles it's hips when you press it's ear, which is the second best gift next to the gamecube...

the one thing i didn't get, which i really wanted, was completely drunk, but i did get several small scratches and teeth marks on both my hands from playing with my nan's dog...

It was way too materialistic. I need to go do something for the needy, or else I'll feel like Napoleon from George Orwell's Animal Farm. I had to give up running for sitting inside today. What the heck is up with that?! URGH! I feel like I'm going to die from not running ("My name is Alexis and I am a running addict.").

Femme Stab Mode >:D

Lots of love! ^_^

Chocolate
X the movie DVD (It's not such a good anime, but it's good as a reference for poses and figure drawing)

5lbs of the 3rd deady sin! YES! Food, is the real meaning of christmas.

Got a Gig bag for my guitar
Qwik Tuner for my guitar

GeForce 5 5200

Pesty

This year I got:

My brother and his family visiting us (best gift ever!)
The new Sims expansion pack
A wood box
A copper wall hanging
A cozy sweater
A Whats-Her-Face doll (that's for my niece, but it went to me because my niece already has one and wanted me to have one to play with her with)
And some really great art supplies, like a thing of Prismacolors that my parents got on sale for 30 bucks (or so they say!)

More than I expected, but not much because my birthday's coming up on the third of January and I asked for some of my gifts to be held until then. Besides those held off gifts, all I'm asking for my birthday are some nice cozy socks and a cake. Guess that's a sign of me getting old. Or it would be if I were not also going to buy myself some NES games.
