I tried to topspin them with my table tennis racket, but instead I found a hole...

For christmas, I got a new wallet with $50 in it (I lost my old wallet at a 'Rise Against' concert), a massive amount of chips, chocolates and soft drink as well as some clothes, epic sunglasses (like the ones that Neo wears on 'The Matrix') and my favourite of them all... A LAPTOP!!!!!!!!!!

God, on the other hand, gave
me a bunch of good stuff, none of them
related to worldly things. :)

Post by: Stick on December 26, 2011, 02:25:18 pm: Our family is Roman Catholic (Italian background), so Christmas is a very important date on our calendar. :)

From Santa, I got a cricket bat, a dart board, a hookey set and some tennis balls. Then from my extended family I got movie tickets, iTunes vouchers and money. Not to mention all the food I ate...

$100 worth of gift vouchers and $175 in cash

I gave my 4 year old girl cousin a chocolate stocking and then she opened it up and gave me the biggest chocolate there! So nice of her :)

Post by: QuantumJG on December 26, 2011, 07:32:38 pm: Well the best present I got came early (a placement in a Postgraduate Diploma in Science - next year Santa can you please bring me a placement in a MSc next year?). I also got money and video games.

I was also given a really cool storm to look at.

Title: Re: So... What did Santa bring?
Post by: funkyducky on December 27, 2011, 05:40:44 pm: I realised Santa wasn't real when I was 7 - my mum used the same wrapping paper for the "Mum and dad" and "Santa" presents. To confirm my suspicions, the handwriting matched. No santa presents for me since then. My brother was smarter, he pretended to believe in santa until he turned 12. When I have kids, I'll be extra careful to not give the horrible truth away.

As for this xmas, I got headphones, books and blokus.
