Got some nice stuff, but the one gift that made me tear up...my mother took the diamond from the first engagement ring my father gave her, along with my gread grandmother's three-stone engagement ring and set them into a beautiful pendant. The pendant is tear-shaped with diamonds all along the band, with the four engagement ring diamonds inside the frame. It is gorgeous, and I've worn it all day :-D
Oh well... It's Boxing day tommorrow, I'm going to get the Xbox 360 version so I can actually play it this time. lol.
My mum meant well so I don't care that she muddled up on this gift. As I enjoyed my family focused day more than I would of had I gotten AC2, and I'd of played that all day instead of spent time with them.
@Webby: Just out of curiosity, were Kill Bill 1 and 2 sold separately or together?
I got a 32" Dynex LCD TV for my room, $160 cash, $40 in mall gift cards, some necessities (razors, t shirts, etc.), $25 iTunes gift card, and even a little candy. The TV is the first HDTV in the house (shocking I know) and I'm loving it so far. I'm used to a tiny ass 1995 Samsung TV for my room, it's a huge upgrade.
2 anime related wallscrolls, GTA IV (steam), Civ IV Complete set (steam) and Dexter season 3, and Machinarium and Kings Bounty: Armored Princess (both also from steam). Damn you steam for making spending money to easy.

It felt alot like being a kid again, because I didn't ask for or expect anything beforehand. Nowadays I just buy what I want. So everything was a true surprise. And I like everything I got. Good Christmas :)

I didn't get any video games...but that's because I asked not to get any. Instead, I got all 3 levels of the Japanese Rosetta Stone, and we also did sort of a dirty santa thing (people not knowing what they're opening stealing gifts from each other) where I got 3 DVDs: G.I. Joe, Inglorious Bastards, District 9, a projection clock, locking pliars, measuring tape, and 2 sweaters that were meant for my little step sister O_o. I also bought my parents an orbital lounger (thanks for the idea, Giant Bomb)
I got some Sennheiser (German) Wireless Headphones, a ipod radio dock, a Xbox 360 Controller for windows, some earphones £50 Itunes gift card and £50 Cash :D
Oh and I also got the Family Guy World Domination Collection (all seasons so far, Stewie Griffin's Untold Story, and the Blue Harvest movie all encased in a very creepy plastic Stewie head)
