The title is the thing! For xmas I got a brand new awesome computer with Windows Vista. What did you get??

 

If I am not on the forums before 09 - Have a great new year and I hope you have/had an awesome christmas day! :)

 

My parents got me the new book in the Ender Saga - Ender in Exile.

 

Very cool.

I got the following for Christmas:

- A Kodak EasyShare C813 digital camera

- A 12 Pack of AA batteries (last 4x longer in digital cameras)

- A 1 GB memory card

- A book about my dad's grandmother, through which I am related to John Chapman (aka Johnny Appleseed)

- A couple other things that I cannot describe accurately enough.

 

So, I got everything on my list and a little more. :)

I got money and a new pair of Black vapor Mercurials.

 

Dude, seriously take it from a semi-pro convert to Kelme; build quality is far greater, (the boots I wear, are approved by the University of Valencia - nikepoo can't boast anything like that). Furthermore Kelme is ethically sound, as it's made in Spain, not some far-eastern sweatshop hell, where the workers are paid peanuts.. Plus it's actually worth the money you pay for Kelme's work; my last pair lasted me 5 years, and you could see the pencil marks, marking the stitching when I first got them. The last pair of Nike's I had were Vapor's that lasted less than 6 months (one was ripped in half by a rather rugged tackle and offered no protection for a flair player such as myself).

My small place cannot hold all the stuff I've gotten...pleasantly there is nowhere outside to go since in the past 8 hours almost 2 ft of snow dumped with winds in the regions surrounding at up to 140mph! :dozey:

I'm not much of a Kelme fan, but I really like Nike and Lotto.
