Damn near nothing aside from some money from my relatives. Then again, I did get a Bluray player and a flat screen from my Dad, so i guess that counts.

[VEDJ-F]

In our house, we have an unusual way of present opening; there's an initial opening of presents from a sack, and then later we get to open the presents around the tree downstairs. It's great because I get a double dose of unwrapping fun every year. The catch? The initial part can't be engaged in until after 6am at the earliest. Not that I mind nowadays, since I have a laptop to pass the time to wait.

As such, I haven't opened any yet. I know what two items I'm expecting though, and there's also this giant mofo of a present I wasn't expecting at all. I'll probably do a 'write-as-you-open' thing as well.

PARENTS ASLEEP, POST PRESENTS.

So, a minute by minute commentary!

-Huh, this sack is fuller than it was last year. Unexpected.
-First official present of Christmas 2011; Terry's chocolate orange. Yay.
-Pink Smarties tube (I don't like pink. :/).
-Milkybar Polar Bear.
-Two chocolate coin bags, one milk, one white.
-A little Thorntons Santa.
-A pack of Jazzies.
-Munchies tube.
-Rowntree's Pick'n'Mix tube. It's never Christmas without a Rowntree's tube.
-Nestle chocolate tray.
-Both Pokemon: Emerging Powers decks (already have the Krookodile deck, but not the Scolipede deck).
-A figure playset of the Nightmare Before Christmas (Oh hell yes! Especially since this now exposes the fact that I was at risk of getting doubles for the equivalent Alice in Wonderland set since they know I adore that Disney film too).
-Rayman Origins (PS3). Whoop.
-The Second Book of General Ignorance.
-A walkthrough of Skylanders; Spyro's Adventure (since I don't own the game myself, this hints at just one thing...).
-A 2012 calendar of Lizards (since when the fuck were calendars that niche...ah, who cares? D'AWWWW! :3).
-A Pokemon cushion.
-A Pokemon (Arceus) fleece blanket.
-A Pokemon beach towel (haven't been to the beach in years).
-Pokemon bed linen (Okay I get the message. :/).
-A homemade keychain from Beaverbrooks. The jewellery pieces look quite nice on this thi...wait a sec, do I spot a Sonic worthy of derp?! Why, I do! They handmade a Sonic accessory!
-A woolly black scarf.
-A strange anthro sheep decoration.
-Framed 3D Super Mario poster. It's bawss.


That's all for now, but there's more to come later!

[Noel]

I didn't ask for anything so this is what I've ended up with so far

Clothes
Money

and that's probably it actually, there isn't anything in particular that I just had to have, except maybe a new coat. :\

[Polar Vec]

Well

-A swimsuit
-3 pairs of socks
-sandals
-and...the weirdest of all...some scarf, my cousin recived the same one but in different color, I said weird because, it's like a scarf for girls (My cousin though the same) But oh well

I yet have to recive one more present, most likely: Money

[VEDJ-F]

Haven't got to the tree yet, there just happened to be some presents that were left in my parents' bedroom.

-Two melody pops. I was unaware that toot sweets actually existed in some form.
-Gorillaz: The Singles Collection.
-A blob thing which looks like a soot sprite, but weirder.
