Whoa.. I guess the easter bunny just brought me late bills, and a bucket to cry in. I thought there was chocolate somewhere in the deal, but guess there's always next year?
What - you get gifts for easter? When did they start doing that?!
When I was a kid (and when I still celebrated easter), I did get some chocolate, but that was it. But it was something the whole family shared and I didn't get much.
I am not a religious person, but even I feel a bit queasy at the blatant commercialization of what used to be a religious holiday (even if it's a religion I'm not a part of).
It's about one where I'm at haha. I usually go out for lunch after Church and have a gib dinner. My dad's side of the family doesn't really celebrate it too much so I don't get anything from him. I do get some money from my mom however.
" I remember I got Turok for the N64 one year for Easter. I think I was 7. "
I got a Sega Genesis when I was a kid.. literally the coolest gift of all time i'd recieved then..and since. : / It was so weird too.. I really didn't think it'd happen because usually I just got candy, or maybe a t-shirt thrown in when spending Easter with family... I about shat myself when I saw it. Turok rocked though, a buddy of mine got Turok with his N64.. and remember playing the hell outta it. (bow and arrow I recall was pretty badass)
Easter? What's that? Just kidding... The 3 warhammer 40k novels that I had ordered arrived. Ravenor Omnibus, HH: False Gods and HH: Flight of the Eisenstein.
Nothing. I did buy myself a Geforce GTX 560 Ti and a new CPU cooler (old one has 2 working locking pins, and one of them is about to break). Also, Mortal Kombat for the PS3. Of course, because of the holidays I won't be getting any of it until Tuesday.
A card with $10 in it from an aunt, and a bag that had a box of pringles, some white chocolate mini eggs, $5, socks and a new pair of hair clippers from my grandmother. I was really glad to get the hair clippers, because my old ones had broken some time ago and I hate having long hair. Feels good to be bald again.
I work in a Music store, and there were a bunch of kids getting new instruments for Easter. I found that really bizarre; I had never considered Easter to be a consumer holiday beyond chocolate and cards.
Probably divorced parents trying too hard to win their kids love.
Also, I got the realization that I'm not a huge fan of chocolate as I used to be. Also that I prefer white chocolate to black chocolate and that I'm probably now a racist because of it.
