Holiday Loot: What Didja Get?
See Full ImageI'm not entirely sure how this tradition got started, but everyone online always wants to relate their loot lists from the holidays. So, here's your chance to indulge and make everyone jealous.
I got a bunch of stuff, including two awesome t-shirts: one features an interlocking pie-chart with MySpace, Facebook and Twitter on it, linking them all to aspects of ADHD, Narcissism and Stalking. It's exactly how I feel about such ridiculous things and I'm wearing it now. The other one is just a plain white t-shirt with simple black lettering that reads, "Some people have a way with words. Other people not have way." A clever little barb at the shocking and depressing lack of literary capability in today's technology-oriented society (after finishing "Age of Innocence," I once again feel as if I was born about 135 years too late). But of course, I got regular stuff, too; gift cards, some cash, candy, etc. My mother always updates my reading list for the following year by getting me a bunch of new classics to read and I'm starting to value that over anything else. But here's a quick list of the STUFF:
Books
- F. Scott Fitzgerald, "Tender is the Night"
- Virginia Woolf, "To The Lighthouse"
- Flannery O'Connner, "The Complete Stories"
- Alexandre Dumas, "The Three Musketeers"
- Gabriel Garcia Marquez, "The General In His Labyrinth"
- Leo Tolstoy, "War and Peace"
- The Complete Plays of Anton Chekhov
CDs
- Trans-Siberian Orchestra, "Night Castle"
- Breaking Benjamin, "Phobia"
- I Am Ghost, "Lovers' Requiem"
Movies
- Heat (Blu-Ray)
- Crimson Tide (Blu-Ray)
- Big (DVD)
- The Shining (DVD)
Games
- Left 4 Dead 2
- Resident Evil 5
- Halo 3: ODST
I also have $70 in cash to get another game with, and it's likely to be either The God of War Collection or Bayonetta. I also got a new printer/fax machine to replace my old, mostly broken one, and a cool piece of furniture: a cabinet that will hold 300 DVDs (or 600 CDs); something that I desperately need as I ran out of room for DVDs/games like six months ago. Oh, and the last thing: a new fleece-lined winter coat; mine is very old and the only other thing I have is my 350Z jacket...which is really nice (and warm), but it really is silly to wear it during the winter, and oh yeah, I don't have the car anymore. LOL Okay, I done. How's about you guys?
P.S. If you think I won't read "War and Peace" (which comes in a set of three full books), you obviously don't know me very well. ;)

And the 48 inch Sony Bravia which we didn't wrap.
Hopefully by the end of next year the economy gets better, the family restaurant is doing ok but from what parents tell me it may not be if customers don't start flocking back.

With my 10% off card, I only wound up paying $23(after tax) for all 3 games(and it was better than me getting 3 packs of smokes which would've only lasted till sunrise) LOL
I was kind of pissed off though...because I had planned on spending my whole paycheck & flying the coop with a new nest egg of around 30/40 games.
But it seems that a flock of gaming vultures had already swooped in before me & pecked all the grade-A prime right off the carcasses ...I mean the store racks. So there wasn't very much edible game-kill left at my price-point that would still catch this ole eagle's eye.
Oh well, at least they left a few scraps of gristle I could still gnaw on, and I won't go to bed completely hungry.

Christopher Pike's vampire series of six books is being reprinted/released into two larger paperbacks, the first of which is already out and the second which isn't... I intend to get the first soon.
My Christmas was decent, even though my family started to hassle me from that point on. Despite this and the ominous forboding sense I get knowing that my Grandmother wants me to visit my father and other grandmother (who I would prefer not to see, but I don't have a choice). We were supposed to go around Christmas but there was some delay.
Good thing I have more PSP games...

I got nothing for Christmas, my BDay is on the 22nd so I always get a BDay which also is, wait for it... a Xmas gift :(
I got AC2 and a PS3 remote from one of my bosses and U2 from the other one. My sister tried to find Mirror's Edge for me but they only had it used for the price of a new one (F-ing Gamestop), so I told her to give me a gift card on whatever amount and I will get something later.
Got a 100 bucks in gift cards that I will buy something with it... Demon's Souls or a brand new coat... If I buy Demon's Soul I'll spend most of my time indoors so... who needs to feel warn all the time anyways :)

What was very generous was:
$200 NZD (now $170 *wink*)
Which I'm hopefully going to use to buy the pinked stripped Puma sneakers I wanted for Christmas haha.
It kinda' feels real good to not get spoiled again right (last year was similar)? Looks like I'm growing up.

I got 3 older PS2 games, & after my 10% off using my Edge card they only cost me $15.39
Demon Stone: Forgotten Realms
Drakengard
Dragon Rage (this one was the free one)
(Anyway, I'm not sure if I'll enjoy their gameplay, but the cover art & stories on the back of the boxes looked interesting enough to chance it. Dragon Fire seems the most interesting out of the three but if not, at least they've still made for some nice add-on's towards expanding my PS2 collection).

Lets see i got a couple sweaters as far as clothing goes.
I also recieved The Unit season 1-3 on dvd, and season 4 on blu-ray!
I also got God of War Collection, Fallout 3: GOTY edition, bioshock, and devil may cry 4!
That wraps up my Christmas besides the loofa i got at a white elephant gift party thing.
BTW Ben take that $70 and get GOW collection. Theres nothing better than seeing two of the greaest games on the PS2 in high def. reliving those games in high def is like a new experience. Plus u get to try out the GOW 3 demo which is absolutely brilliant! Hope you guys all had a Merry Christmas, and have a great rest of the holiday season!

Nintendo DSi
Modernwarfare 2 (PS3)
both with gift receipts -- I don't care much for handheld gaming and I still have an unopened Modernwafare 2 for 360 that I bought last month--I blame DragonAge and Uncharted 2 for still not playing Modernwarfare2.
Question is which version of Modernwarfare 2 do I keep...PS3 or 360? As a reference...I had the original CoD Modernwarfare for 360 and CoD World at War for Ps3 -- go figure.

I am blessed.
Happy holidays to everyone!
p.s. I am thinking about buying the new core version of the Ion drum kit, but it's still awfully expensive for a peripheral.
p.p.s. Sony also gave me a present: my now-repaired PS3.

Oops, I forgot, my brother got me a pair of PlayStation 3 boxer shorts that even came in a tin shaped like a Dual Shock 3 controller.
A case for 300 DVDs? Perish the thought! Now 300 Blu-rays? That's more like it.
