STUFF I DIDN'T ASK FOR THAT I HATE:
-a pair of house shoes. they are sky blue. one has a yellow moon, one a yellow sun. thank you, aunt valerie and uncle doug.
-a bright red turtle neck sweater straight out of an abercrombie and fitch ad. it's actually by mudd, bought from kohl's ("in case the size wasn't right"--IT'S A FREAKING LARGE AND IT CAME FROM THE "PREPPY SKINNY GIRLS WHO NEVER EAT" SECTION. WHAT DO YOU THINK?). thank you, aunt valerie and uncle doug.
-a leopard print set of...things. there's a planner or diary or something, a bear, a purse, and i guess a make-up bag. thanks, grandma.
-a puke green shirt, courtesy of my mother. it's in such a style that i've never seen anyone else where that kind of shirt but her.
-a pair of eddie bauer jeans. i'm sorry, but i love cargo/carpenter jeans. they don't make my ass look so huge and plus they're a hell of a lot more comfortable. thank you, aunt natalie, and your girlfriend/wife ardie too.
-blue plaid pajamas. i think i might actually wear these, however, because i won't care about being seen in the light of day with them. that and i love flannel PJ's to begin with. the color just sucks. i don't remember who these came from.
-a generic version of "chicken soup for the teenage soul." i asked specifically for douglas coupland books, THIS IS WHAT I GOT. i don't remember who this came from.
STUFF I DIDN'T ASK FOR THAT I LIKE:
-bath and body body wash and relaxing bath bubbles. smells very nice. thanks mom.
-a maroon knit sweater type thing. i'm not sure how to describe it. thanks mom.
-a black long-sleeved t-shirt. never have enough of those. thanks mom.
STUFF THAT I ACTUALLY ASKED FOR:
-lit - a place in the sun. thanks, grandma.
-final fantasy: the spirits within. thanks johnny. i guess this doesn't really count though. i knew i was getting it because i told him and he said he wanted it really bad too.
i guess it still sucks though. i made a christmas list at my grandmother's request on thanksgiving, put "DOUGLAS COUPLAND BOOKS" in big letters at the top, and filled the rest of the page with cds. nothing but cds.
i think i'm going wrong somewhere. maybe i should ask for britney spears cds next year.
i love my grandparents, though, really. grandpa and grandma buckley (great grandparents) are just cool, and grandma (no great) is just funny in her own way. [ 12-24-2001: Message edited by: Kloie ]

It's the thought that counts.
my family sees christmas as a purely corporate holiday and excuse to get gifts from everyone. i seriously doubt my aunt was thinking when she picked out those house shoes and that mudd turtle neck.
give the shit you don't like to someone who can use it, like the needy/homeless. [ 12-24-2001: Message edited by: Ryuujin ]

I have an uncle doug too. I think he hates me though. I asked him to teach me how to run Hocus Pocus on my 486 one too many times...
They're very comfy, but there's room for another arse in the bottoms... "A bit roomy", in other words.
Gotta wait until tomorrow to see what I get from my sister... provided there isn't two feet of snow of the roads - it's working on it now...

if you played the PS2 version, any difference besides graphics? like gameplay, extra stuff. or its it just a straight port from PS2 to Xbox?
as for what i got for christmas..
I won't know for sure till I go out and buy them. That won't be till next weekend or so.
My family doesn't do the big Christmas gift thing anymore. Instead, we do minor stuff, and get together if we can. If we want something, we go out and buy it for ourselves. (Well, more or less.)
Before actual Christmas
XBOX
Extra Controller
Project Gotham Racing
Halo
DOA3
THPS2X
1.5 GB of RAM
Processor (1400 MhZ) Upgrade
PS2 Games (BG Dark Alliance, Tsugunai)
Not sure WHAT they are calling the GameCube...They bought it for me, not sure if they consider that, the extra controller, SSBM and Pikmin a Christmas present or what
Then what I know I am getting tomorrow:
Ghost Recon From a cousin and her hubby
Operation Flashpoint from Grandma/Grandpa
Battle Realms from my Aunt
And I dunno what else.
*shrug* Im happy
My parents and grandparents dont TRY to buy me clothes, Im picky (Well, in a way. I wear very few things, and am picky in how somethin fits me.)
Some other stuff, too, but that's for me to know. I'm too damn happy from the above three to care.
