OliveParticipant@Analesia: You got the new ipod nano and a Kindle? Lucky! Oh, and Ugg-like boots that aren't really Uggs are called (where I live anyway) Fuggs. As in Fake UGGS. 😉 (and who would ever have thought that the Ultimate Guide wasn't written by Rick Riordan. I learned something new today!) I feel sort of hyper right now. I'm on a music downloading rampage. 🙂

Sparks, NVEarrings and a necklace from my dad 🙂
Into the Woods soundtrack and piano music from Mum [squee!]
A cow made out of jingle bells
A book of kids' letters home from camp
Tales from Outer Suburbia by Shaun Tan (I love it)
A scarf my neighbor crocheted me
A set of tiny glass perfume bottles that are super pretty (no, I do not keep perfume in them)
And slippers and pjs and shoe polish, which I had asked for. 🙂
Oh, and two massive thesauruses from my mum. They work as bookends, they're so big. 😀

Local LibraryI am so glad to find that I'm not the only person out there so obsessed with Harry Potter so as to even want HP merchandise for Christmas. My parents, in their infinite wisdom, have never seen fit to actually give me any, but it makes me smile nonetheless to see all the HP gifts on these lists. 🙂
This year, I got Princess Academy by Shannon Hale (I guess my parents figured that I'd checked it out from the library enough times that it would be cheapest just to buy it for me), Taylor Swift's album Speak Now, a sweater, and a hand-knitted bag from my mother that is absolutely gorgeous.
I guess that might seem like a short list, but that's simply the result of a very expensive gift for the whole family.
This year, my parents broke down and bought a game system. I'm in awe. In all my fifteen years, my parents have never even considered buying their kids a game system. I'm speechless, to say the least. I haven't decided whether it's a good speechless or a bad speechless yet; I haven't had the opportunity to actually try it. 🙂
Anyway, I hope you all had a merry Christmas!

outside lookingI received a Borders gift card worth fifty dollars (SQUEEE!), the DVDs Sixteen Candles and Toy Story, an itunes gift cared worth fifteen dollars, jeggings (jeans/leggings) and a sweatshirt. It was a great Christmas!

Savitri: No, that doesn't sound little. Sometimes it's better to get a smaller amount, so you are more thankful! Haha, my mom wouldn't consider gaming systems either! My uncle got us a Wii for Christmas a couple years ago and my mom almost didn't let us keep it!
