For the last few years I've received a lot of useful things, mostly because I'm starting a family and a house. This year I got toys! ;D A very fruitful Christmas!

what did i get?
tealight candle holder, scented candle, assorted tea leaves, pair of shoes, clothes, imported cookies & chocs, wine.
this is a lot considering the fact that we hardly exchange gifts here on Christmas.

Nice gifts you all got! I got this collectors item from Playmobile, the whole fairyworld. A massaging desk chair, a tree stump display for my pixies, flowers and clothes. But the most important thing for me is my boyfriend, best gift I could get in 2008. My son is with me too and today one of my best friends is arriving from Amsterdam. 2008 was a rough year for me, but I'm glad I finally got my own place, my friends and my health. Even without material gifts, this christmas couldn't get any better!

An Elven Blood Bowl team (pro-elves FYI). Coldplay's first, Tangerine Dream - The Essential Collection, and Collaps by Einstürzende Neubauten (TWO German bands! And I'm thinking of buying Kraftwerk as well.). And underwear+socks. That was pretty much it... Übereil

I bet the underwear and the socks were from your mother? ;D Why do we always get stuff like that from them? Typical gifts from the mothers: underwear, hankies and socks or clothes in general. From the father and the big brother: tech stuff, like a cellphone or a digi cam, because they like it themselve soo much From your sister: Bathroom products like showergels, shampoo etc... Mother in law: Cook books (imagine if you don't feed your partner!) ;D Friends: Gift certificates or naughty presents Grandparents: usually the grandmom decides what to give and usually it's flowers or something from your childhood. Any other ideas? ;D

It looks messed up, eh? At least not to the point to receive/give undies or bathroom stuff from/to the male counterparts.

I got the Band of Brothers book and a few maps of the Batlle of the Bulge (I'm planning to make a tour through the Ardennes, war tourism ;D) a huge canvas with a panorama of Times Square, NY on it, for decoration a few gift certificates for books, cd's and films a talk with my gf about some troubles we had the conclusion that I wasn't able to study for two weeks long, without any reason and while it's desperately needed to study... All in all it was a nice Christmas, apart from the studying problems
