I got what I really wanted and then a bunch of other random stuffs:

- 3 wireless xbox controllers (This is all I wanted)
- Some weird Nazi mouse comic from my older sister
- kick as wrap around skirt from my little sister
- New Type for Dec (Stocked the Jan issue three days ago it has FMA on the cover so I'll have to big mags I don't have time to read)
- $100 on a simon card from grandparents
- $50 for amazon from other grandparents

just lots of weird things, my mother side of the family didn't send any of us anything this year which was weird. Other then that I need more time to read since I want to read those mags and sharpen the pencils so I can draw more random Anime characters with the second and third volumes of the How to Draw Manga costume enciclopedias that I bought off amazon.

My mom really surprised me this year. She got me a Speed Racer slot machine! She also got me the first Mazinger Z Boxset and the Dirty Pair boxset. (TV series, OVA, Flash)

I mainly got clothes from my family. My cousin Angela got my mom and I a gift card for SAWA (hibachi). My cousins Mike and Maria surprised the hell out of me with a Fruits Basket calendar. I also got 20 bucks, and a gift card to TARGET.

...

And at Xmas dinner I got caught in the middle of a catfight. I was pretty shaken up, but it was SO_FUNNY.

God damn, you guys get a lot of gifts.

I didn't get anything this year, didn't want anything at all really, but I gave some friends and family some gifts, so yeah. Even when I get gifts, its nowhere near as much the amount you guys get. Well, have fun with them nonetheless and I hope that everyone got what they wanted.
Peace.
