I know there existed a thread like this for the past two years, but it is another year, so here it is again.
The title of the thread explains it all, what did you get on Christmas, from Santa and from your Family.

Currently, I've opened a perfume sampler from Victoria's Secret. There were 15 little bottles of their most famous perfumes! A great introduction into their store. X3

And my mom bought me a 2012 collectible teddy bear. My parents also got me a hoodie and pillow from my dream college, where I was accepted for their computer engineering program two weeks ago.

:D

My parents usually let me open a gift on christmas eve, but seeing as we have fewer this year and I know what most of them are, I have to wait to open them. X3

Our family celebrates on the night of Christmas Eve, so we already opened our presents. I gots a programmable mouse and keyboard, a shirt with the Avenger logo on it as well as the Captain America symbol, a candy bowl in the shape of a squirrel and my very own Squirrel Feeder set. ^^ A box to put nuts in and another thing to hang corn in, they also got me a bag of 15 or so corn. ^^

Oh yeah, I know what all of my presents are too. X3 My parents let me pick out my gifts as well.

I bought two shirts from the store where I work at yesterday.
Picture of the adorable fox shirt I'm wearing right now:
OH GOD YOU GUYS IT'S MY FACE TOO.

@thrasherblades- Do you mean cologne? Or are you a girl? :o

Thank ya! It takes someone with dark hair and dark eyes to pull off a highlighter-yellow colored shirt. :P It goes well with the beforementioned fox hat.

It's not even Christmas day yet, so how would I know?

EDIT: Okay, I opened my presents and I got some Wii and 3DS games, some socks, a very comfy coat(which, when you live in northern Alberta, is greatly appreciated), some Frankenweenie stuff, and thats pretty much it.

I got the rest of my presents.
Clothes and some more perfume.
These clothes were items that I had picked out two months ago. Meaning, I weigh 15 pounds less than I did back then. Nothing fits except for like two tops. :/
So I'm trading in the jeans for a smaller size. I'm pretty sure they don't carry those sweaters anymore, so I'm going to see if I can trade them in for a refund. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful for what I got, but I hate getting clothes for Christmas. Like I feel like I'm perfectly capable of buying myself a sweater, but I really would have liked a new gaming console for Christmas. When I return that stuff, I think I'll put $50 towards a PS3 fund.

A blouse? Perfumes? Karlos, I don't think you've ever stated your gender, but are you a girl? :shock:

1. I live in a different country so you most likely didn't miss anything
2. The above is pointless because my dad downloaded all the episodes.

Merry Christmas!
- I got to upgrade my Lenovo T61P to a SSD hard drive, 4GB RAM, and a Windows 8 64-bit operating system upgrade. It's screaming right now.
- I bought my family a new computer with 22-inch screen, 8GB ram, 500GB drive and Windows 8.
- Sony Bravia 55-inch HDTV from Crutchfield; Looks amazing to see stuff in HD .Last night we watched Bakshi's animated "Lord of the Rings", along with Albert Finney's 1970 classic musical "Scrooge". Unbeileveable clarity , even on non-HD content.
- Ham radio stuff for my one son, a full production quality soldering station for the other son, who wants to set up an electroniccs workbench in his room.
- A new 2012 Chevrolet Impala LTZ for my wife.
Personally, I got a chance to take my costume out for a Christmas shopping trip including a spin around Target and Toys R Us. The experience of dancing down the sidewalks and belting out Christmas carols with my children, was the best Christmas present of the season. I got to do so when my wife was home and it almost seemed as if she didn't mind this time, and that brought great joy. It was fun to dress as Tycho in my LED equipped Christmas hat and watching boys and girls *DRAG* their fathers across the store to meet us . The staff at all the stores were cooperative and friendly, too! We were really shopping, by the way and we finished purchasing our stocking stuffers. It was neat: I asked these eight and nine year old kids where I could find warm, fuzzy wool stockings to buy for my wife, and they pointed out which aisle to find them with enthusiasm. So, the big dog was hopping about the store, with paws full of presents. Standing in the long checkout line was an oddyssey - I kept light-heartedly blaming the stares on my kids, and people kept giggling. The clerk thanked us for making shopping fun

I got gift art from online people. Nothing from the family tho. And a dinner from my pastor that I will likely collect on at some point. And a weekend out of town with my friend and his wife. So it was alright I guess.

Many things.
  • - Borderlands 2 for PS3 (which I played the crap out of the other day)
    - Deus Ex: Human Revolution for PS3
    - Harry Potter 4, 6, and 7 (both parts) on DVD
    - Corpse Bride on DVD (this one kind of came out of left field, as I didn't ask for it, have never really shown any interest in it, and it would've made more sense to just grab another HP film; but I really have no room to complain being as spoiled as I am already)
    - a pair of ATH-M40fs headphones for recording (which I failed to realize have a larger plug than my laptop supports when I asked for them; meaning I'm gonna need to go buy an adapter before I can use them; lol)
    - a few old Lion King Burger King toys from way-back-when, and a tiny Simba statuette
    - a Twilight Sparkle keychain to awesome-ify my keyring
    - a set of stickers (?) and magnets from the same person who made the keychain
    - a wooden display with the word "BRONY." on it, composed of various pictures from deviantArt, that my older sister made for me
    - a heavy-duty LED flashlight
    - a couple of really nice sweaters (they're sooooooo sooooooooooft~)
    - a more winter-y hoodie (thicker than my others and it has "fur" lining)
    - and junk food (so much freakin' junk food: Slim Jims and Reese's and gummies, OH MY)

Beag - that shirt is just awesome! It wouldn't look right on me at all, but I'd want it anyways. :)
Sleet - OOoh, what version of FLStudio?? We going to finally hear some recordings? :D

Didn't get much that's tangible this year but that's what happens as you get older methinks.
Despite the music, lights, and colder weather, didn't really feel the season much except when the lady and I made an xmas feast for her folks in the showroom of a chimney store (5 fireplaces going while eating absolutely awesome turkey). Also cuddled with the lady and watched some Adventure Time on DVD she got me, and that was priceless.

@Karlos- I'm sorry! D: Language can really screw us up sometimes, can't it?

@Dingo- Well thank ya! X3

Ermagerd, I forgot to mention that my sister bought me a $30 iTunes gift card. Get ALL the music!

And I hit up the mall tonight to do some exchanges and take advantage of some awesome Christmas sales. :V I bought myself two pairs of touchscreen gloves- paying $4.19 for the transaction- and some of my favorite lotion that's about to go out of stores.
I traded in those jeans, and I'll definitely be getting some more exchanges done once my mom gives me the receipt to Aeropostal.
American Eagle is having a huge sale on their jeans until New Year's, so happy Beagle is happy. I need pants... because I now wear an eight, and I haven't been in a single-digit size since... ever. D8 My trousers shall descend no more!

It's a day late, but today has been my merry Christmas. XD Better late than never!
