Christmas (presents)

I gave people presents for Christmas this year.
Or more specifically, Alex, Brian, and I went shopping together. It happened maybe a week or so before Christmas, I think the weekend before the last week of school before break.

It was a very novel experience, being my first time and all. I have never gotten presents for anyone, ever. Don't really know why, I'm just not into that sort of stuff I guess. Not that kind of person. Well, this year I did it.

We went to the mall and came up with brilliant ideas for presents for people. I won't list them, because some of them weren't used and maybe next year, who knows =)

Anyway, we only got things for close friends to keep things cuter. It was about halfway through and 80 dollars down (each; we split the bill) that we realized that
1. We had to get cheaper shit.
2. We had too many close friends.

Seriously, maybe like a $20-40 present might not seem to cost a lot when you split it 3 ways, it adds up. Fast.

Anyway, here's a list of the booty. The ones I paid for anyway. Each present was uniquely chosen to match the receiver. PERSONALLY chosen. =)

Abe- Big Stuffed Mushroom
Daniel- Stuffed Mushroom
Chris- Kon Stuffed Doll / Life 101
Edward- Nuns Having Fun calendar / 98 Things a Woman Should Do In Her Lifetime
Hank- Yoshi Car Decoration / Yoshi slippers
Jon Tso- Big pair of Scooby-Doo pajama bottoms
Wallis- Black G-UNIT Jacket
Chien- Superman $$ Hoodie with full hood zipper
Jerry- Playboy robes and boxer
Vincent- Two pairs of Playboy boxers
Ryan- Chippendales Calendar
Claire- Box of Sees Candy

I don't think I forgot anyone... I hope.

Oh yea, I read The Princess Bride the book. It was pretty god.
But still, (and I don't think I ever said this before in my life. I predict it will be a LONG LONG time before I say it again) I prefer the movie over the book.
The movie just has that flair to it, its beautiful.

Oh yea, and I forgot to end my last post with a random insightful profound quote about life or other humorous thing. I'll edit that in right now.

Oh no! I've forgotten it for like 4 posts already. CHANGES MUST BE MADE!!!


Nothing in life is always wrong. Even a broken clock works twice a day.

So. Damn. Expensive. And motherfuckers like edward are so unappreciative and gave us nothing (refer to his blog about presents). Most people's expressions and reactions were priceless though, and I'd do it again.
