The Inconspicuous Holiday Thread

So Christmas(among other holidays) is very near, and I believe we need a place to celebrate these things. What are you all wanting for Christmas. Or what are you getting for others. We can share these joys in this very thread.

I was also wondering if anyone had any interest in Christmas carolling on Skype. I do know there is a Secret Santa going on at the moment, but this is the place for everything else. Christmas Pics are welcome and highly recommended by the way.

...this may just be the worst idea in all of time. Ever. This idea is so bad my ears literally melted off of my head so I couldn't hear myself say it outloud, and shortly after I said it outloud my tongue melted, quickly followed by my eyes so I may never see such an idea again. No, I don't know how I'm typing so well.

So that isn't an isolated phenomenon.

I'm either getting Bioshock Infinite or The Last of Us this Christmas. My mom still hasn't told me which yet.

I found out that all I am PROBABLY going to get is some fancy hot chocolate mix due to how expensive my birthday present was. So I am going to treat myself with my own gift.

And ya, I never said the Christmas Caroling was a good idea, I just wanted to put it out there.

My birthday is in January. My birthday present is usually Christmas candy, because it's on sale the month after.

It's for the same reason the best days are the days after Valentine's and Halloween: sales of chocolate and candy, everywhere! *-*

Well at least your birthday is not as close as my father's, which is on the 27th X) Sometimes we end up giving on Chirstmas one present for Chirstmas, one present for his b-day, and there ya go ^^; Makes awesome leftovers though, with the Christmas snacks, supper and cake, and my father's b-day cake XP

Mostly just money, my family is unimaginative, so that'll go on rent. I think my brother got me aftershave?

For the holidays I will be drinking.

For the holidays I will attempt to avoid the internet, fail hilariously, then be Ebenezer Scrooge(only minus the part where the ghosts make him forget that the true meaning of Christmas is being grouchy as fuck.)

I've already been told I'm getting a car. And am probably getting a laptop, 3ds, and x/y too.

I wanted an mp3 player so I could listen to all my anime music while running. I asked my family to buy me one for Christmas.

For my program's Secret Santa, I got an mp3 player. I almost died of shock when I saw it, since I opened it right after my last final (which was Thursday last week). I phoned my sister to ask if she spoke with my classmates, but no. Apparently it was just a lucky guess? One heck of a guess.

Entitled brat.

<3

I celebrated Christmas this morning because I'll be out of town on the day itself, and Dad won't be coming with me. I'd say the best gift out of all of the gifts was my gift of Game of Thrones (and Clash of Kings) to my father. He's already hooked.

I now have the mental image of a handegg jock, wearing only socks and a santa hat, holding a box of chocolates strategically in front of a particular part of his anatomy.

I'm getting a wireless keyboard, because the keyboard on my office laptop is kerfucked beyond all belief. It is rather irritating that the thing's old enough that I have to now treat it like a shitty desktop, though, since it's wifi doesn't work and I have to keep it plugged in via ethernet, and the keyboard and trackpad are fucked so I use a wireless mouse and now the wireless keyboard. ...oh well, at least I'm prepared in the future for when I get an actual good desktop.

I'm getting hopefully a new clarinet, a ukelele, Pikmin 3, Wind Waker HD, Fire Emblem Awakening, and Starbound. Very possibly, a bass guitar and amp.

Only thing I've asked for is Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy. Even that I was reluctant to ask for since we're short on cash right now, but mum kind of forced me.

Bought my brother Ni No Kuni though, since I saw it cheap.

I know what we need to do! We need to trade~ I set a Pokemon aside for you... but now I can't remember which one it was. O_o

As for me, I got Pokemon plushies, Alice & Peter Fancy Choco Cupcake perfume, the picture book from the anime Monster, Japanese kitkats (in all kinds of crazy flavors), and some much-needed measuring spoons and cups for my kitchen~

I just got DMC3 and DMC4 from a friend, which is awesome because I've literally just been having whims to play DMC4. So excited! Can't wait.
