"We are constantly invited to be who we are." ~ Henry David Thoreau

Gabber received: X-Men 2 on dvd from my roommate. She received the Buffy Season 3 dvd box set from me, she received Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix from me, (shaddup all of youse), and a book holder that's Harry Potter also from me.

I received: my very own GameCube from my roommate and her boyfriend (I had been borrowing his to play games on but now I have my very own!) and a game called Eternal Darkness, I also got Dune: The Butlerian Jihad to continue my collection of Dune books from Gabber, I also got a Queer As Folk 2004 calendar from her as well AND a puzzle with the heroes of Lord of The Rings on it. Very very cool. I also got a new watch and a robe for X-mas from another friend. So yeah, I cleaned up.

Aside from stocking stuffers, that's it. A nice Christmas altogether.

I offer no apologies for the things that I believe and say
And I like it that way


Only in dreams, we see what it means
Reach out our hands, hold on to hers
But when we wake, it's all been erased

And so it seems
Only in dreams

I really can't count this as a Christmas present because it was actually a graduation gift, but I got the BEST graduation gift. Since presentation is everything... I was given a gift and asked to open it. When I opened it, it was the X-box version of the game "Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds". I said, "that's great, but I don't have an X-box". The gift giver smirked and pulled out a wrapped gift from under their bed. It was an X-box.

That's awesome, Arista

Oh, and I got a toaster oven.
No, really.
A *real* toaster oven. Sunbeam. It was from my parents.

It's not the best Aussie wine, but it's not a shaby one either. Better than average.

You could drink it now, for some peppery flavours, or put it down for three or four years to let it mellow a little.

Good with a zesty or vintage cheese.
