No snow. ):

Same. It's bumming me out. Christmas is the only time I really want snow, but we're not going to get any until afterwards. Winters here are actually pretty brutal, but it doesn't even start until January.
|
I've been enjoying the nice summer weather here in Nevada this morning. I'm in a T shirt.

Yay, I got to open all of my Christmas presents. I got Rayman Origins (yay!), the fifth season of the Simpsons, some money (a sum of around 200€) and my new headphones, Sony MDR-XB500's. Pretty awesome I think.
I also got the ninth season of Frasier, but sadly, it doesn't have Finnish subtitles, only English for the hearing impaired or something. But it's still nice. I gave my mum a Twin Peaks DVD box that has all the episodes plus a bunch of extra material. She was really happy until we noticed that half of the extra material was missing. That was a bummer. We'll have to go to the store I bought it from to get another copy of it with everything in it. Other than that, my Christmas has been really nice. Not as nice as last year, but really nice anyways! Merry Christmas to all of you (again)! |

And the odd power cut. |
Airports shut for a good reason though. :)
Anyway, I decided to take a picture of this years Tree. I've got to say I think it looks pretty impressive. http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/3158/pc200119.jpg |
Welp, since I prolly won't be here till boxing day,
now's the best time to go ahead and say, Merry Christmas fuckers! |
Merry Christmas Cunt!

I'm about to head off to my aunt's for Christmas lunch.
I'm wearing a stupid Christmas tie with a shirt and will be donning a Santa hat if I can find one. I'll have to take a picture and post it here. I look like a fucking huge dork. |
Merry Christmas from the UK =)
|
Merry Christmas even more from the UK. We don't have any decorations up at home, so here's the tree in our office.
![]() I did all my Christmas shopping in two hours today. Now I'm gonna have a shower and do the wrapping then go to bed late and probably be fucking tired all through tomorrow. C'est la vie. EDIT: I mean have a shower AND THEN do the wrapping, not attempt to combine them into a single event. |
I dragged myself out of bed at around midday. I got no presents, obviously.
I will be spending the day cleaning and child-proofing my home, so that my sister and niece (who are literally the only members of my family currently in the same state/country as me) can come for dinner. On the plus side, my new biosphere seems to be surviving. I'll post pictures when the water clears. |
This Christmas has been pretty fun and interesting ^^ Im pretty happy. had a nice day with family yesterday, watched a bunch of christmas movies, sipping hot chocolate.
My uncle and aunt got me cute armwarmers, some winter knit dress and a super awesome panda-plushie-pillow XD They get me. From My grandma I got some clothing stuff and a super cute Owl-necklace. And from my parents, I dunno if I got anything, as I'm in Romania atm :p From Friends in Cluj, I got a funny spinner, a Hello Kitty Wallet(I like Hello Kitty, sue me :P), some Coconut Bath gel, some chocolate aaand super cute Kitty-homeshoes(you know those plushie shoes that keep your feet warm). So yea ^^ Also there's been snow around here on Christmas, so it couldn't get any better. |
I'm really happy with this christmas, I love the 3DS and I can't wait to play Skyward Sword :) I also I got a giant tube of Jaffa Cakes, The Yogscast should be proud!

Yesterday I went to my best friend's family and exchanged some gifts (gave them Christmas cake, a tin of biscuits and Portal 2, got a book about cycling and some flaked truffles), had dinner with them, got drunk, played board games with them for the entire evening while listening to crappy Christmas songs, watched Bill Bailey, then nearly crashed while trying to cycle the 2 miles home at 1 am. Now I've been asleep for 10 hours and I'm hungover. lol
And that's what Christmas is about. I'm liking this mild weather though. |
Tim Minchin is epic.
I got a Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon CD, a little ghost keyring that makes a noise when you press a button, and I have a Rock Band 3 keyboard headed my way. Here's a song that I found amusing recently. Not many people would have heard it here. |
My presents this year are new slippers, a slow cooker, chocolate and... a framed A4 photo of my mum. So yeah.
|
Ironically enough, Melbourne had a White Christmas. Of sorts.
These are actual hail stones that fell here today: http://distilleryimage1.instagram.co...381b65e3_7.jpg Also, the guy in this video is really annoying, so I wouldn't suggest watching the whole thing. But jump ahead to see how heavy the hail is and you'll be impressed. |
I got a load of clothes, some chocolates, a tub of sweets and £50 from my parents.
A Suicine model kit so far from my friends, other presents pending. |
I got some chocolates/sweets, some clothes, an awesome belt with a NES controller buckle, some Sonic the hedgehog mini-figurines, the Mr. Bean complete collection, a Sega Mega Drive Classic Collection for the PC (Only video game this year!), bit of money, some other little things and very suprisingly, an Amazon Kindle. Awesome haul this year, can't freaking wait for dinner. :D Merry Christmas everyone!

After watching the video Strike Witch (I believe) posted about the air swimmers on Bits and pieces, and how much in awe I was about it, my brother from another mother, gem that he is, picked the shark one up for me... now all I need is a bit of helium :(
My other brother who shares my mother bought me AC: Revelations, now the story can be tied up for me. Just as soon as ballbag Dix throws back Brotherhood so I cans finish it? Other gifts include a washbag, clothes, sudoku puzzle (present of the day) book, money and a tin o' roses. I'm currently stuffed to the hilt with rubbish and I'm still looking forward to dinner, although we're having it stupidly early this year :P Merry Christmas from Norn Iron, you beautiful fuckers :) |
Merry Christmas from over this way. Pretty quiet day my end, but that’s fine by me.
|
Merry Christmas everybody!
I received an HP monitor, Logitech speakers, Halo Anniversary, Rayman Origins, 4000 MS Points, and some money. I will be bringing back the monitor to Best Buy tomorrow since the HDMI port isn't working and I might have to pick out a new model altogether. =/ |
Merry Christmas,
I got Mr. Bones and EWJ 2 for Sega Saturn, a Technics turn table, and Pac-Man pajama pants |
Amazon Kindle <3
|
Merry Christmas everybody! Apparently they say 'Happy Christmas' on TV because 'Merry' encourages drinking.
Merry Christmas, everybody! :
Snuck upstairs while family are watching Absolutely Fabulous. Was determined to spend quality time with family and leave computer alone. Achieved former with flying colours (zero arguments, depite playing two rounds of Scattergories), breifly failed on latter. Will go back downstairs shortly. Can't speak in full sentences. Also became physically excited by a selection of cheeses. It's darn good to be British. Standout presents were an iPod nano, a couple of HP Lovecraft anthologies and a nice-looking pair of Sennheiser cans. Was also relieved that The Vegans (collective term for my sister and her androgynous life-partner) considered 'May contain milk' worth the risk. My gifts were well-recieved by all, it seems. Toodle-pip, y'all! I have to go consume my weight in honey roasted peanuts. |
I got two pocket watches. Two!
|
One for each pocket!

anyway, i got some much-needed socks, which i'm glad to receive, a book of short horror stories which i can't wait to get stuck into, two bottles of Malibu seeing as my parents and a mate both got one for me, a decent pair of sturdy boots/shoes from my grandparents, they have fur inside to keep my little toesies warm, and a ring from my parents which i fucking love. i've had a great Christmas. woke up, did the unwrapping-presents-shindig, didn't bother going down the pub for a Christmas drink this year as i couldn't be arsed, had Christmas dinner, went to my uncles to drop their presents off, headed around to my grandparents to do the same, spent some time with them and then went home. only just got back. |
