I got the Dark Knight movie in Blu Ray today as a present. But other then that today has been a pretty quiet Christmas, though one of my relatives may come over.

For once, I wasn't really all excited about Christmas this year like I always would be. Usually I go to bed really early on Christmas Eve and wake up at like 4 in the morning, wanting to open presents, but this year I just didn't feel that same kind of spirit. Don't think I went to bed until like 4 am and for the first time, my parents were the ones waking me up. :lol:
As for gifts, I got Chrono Trigger DS, Blue Gender Viridian Collection, Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid Box Set, and apparently a $600 dresser for my room, which I must admit looks real nice in my room. I've had the same dresser I've had in my room since I was a baby, so it's nice having a new one.

I got The Dark Knight too, just not in Blu Ray. Already put it on my iPod. But I have a iPod Video, so I don't know if it would drain the battery before it's even done. 30 minute TV eps drain it as it is.

Not really sure if this counts as being Christmas related, but here's a few funny pictures my dad took of one of our dogs this morning. Our other dog ended up in one of the pictures as well. It's just really cute and I thought I'd share it.

I didn't even remember about X-Mas till last week when someone had to remind me I needed gifts for family members with less than a week remaining. Needless to say, everybody got gift cards save for a few people. As for myself, my big present was getting my most recent Car Inspection covered completely by my dad, and not having to pay rent for 2 months. Otherwise I got some money and a few gift cards.
X-Mas stopped being exciting to me a few years ago.
Anyway, Merry Christmas AN.

Merry Christmas! I'm glad it's here, since I've been hearing Christmas music at work since Nov. 1st. Since my brother moved out, this was the 2nd year he hasn't been here in the morning to do our routine, so it was odd.
I got the annual undergarments and collectible doll. Also, Narnia: Prince Caspian DVD, Fruits Basket vol. 21, and Freddie Fish for Wii. (yeah, I played this on PC back in the day so I had to have it for the Wii) :P
I was required to open 2 presents last. I got a Sony Cybershot DSC-W120 camera and a 4gig Pro Duo Memory card. :D I was going to buy a camera before ACen next year, so this is awesome.
I still have to go to my aunts place to see all my relatives in a couple hours.

I have to go to my grandma's on my dad's side of the family for a bit myself, just for the usual Christmas get together and meal. To be honest though, I may just skip out on eating over there. I had a little too many cookies probably this morning and I have a hankering for some of the food in our house more than what will probably be over there, so I may just wait until I get home and eat some stuff that's in the house. It's unfortunate it's just the same old stuff over there all the time and my grandma isn't really that great of a cook.

I got a digital camera! :D
A pair of nice T-shirts and Family Guy season 7. And somewhat gallingly a toiletry bag full of anti-ageing products. I’m only 20! I’m not old. :( It says No 7 for men, but I’m pretty sure it’s the same as the "for ladies" ones…
Oh and I got about £100 from various people.
So that was nice. :)

My nieces, who are still very young, called me. I didn't have time to feign mock sincerity because I was in the middle of dinner. When they asked what I was eating, I told them "Santa." They found it so funny that they started crying. Then I hung up.
Bah, Christmas. The redundant and calculable music, the recurring images of iconic figures and scenes, the repetitive adulation for Dear Leader and his birthday, and, most importantly, the absolute imminence of it all that prevents a dissident from enjoying a moment's peace - the latter being a true hallmark of the totalitarian state - all ring a sour, not spirited, note.

Your a rugged individualist just like everyone else ^_^
But i catch your drift, the Holiday has been corrupted heavily by consumerist greed, though with the "credit crunch" i find that some what amusing.
(Merry Christmas every one)

Serious about the no surprise on the iPod thing, I was like, you know someone's going to buy me an iPod this year, and if they don't I still wont be surprised cause I've been wanting to buy an iPod lately and I'd have ended up buying one with my own money :P
