    What about food, a warm house, a hot shower and a soft bed? Things could be worse.

    So after so many years of not getting any presents but only a bit of a cash our little brother activated the whole family by buying us some presents (expensive ones, how pathetic that sounds :S)

    => Granparents, Parents cash was all together 350Euros
    => My little brother bought me MS Ergo 4000
    => I bought to my little brother with other 3 members of our family a Wii witch i like for playing with friends (still like pc-gaming best but with guests its just more fun)
    => My father-granpa bought me a Canon A590IS
    => I am getting myself an mouse (i dont know witch, opinions), a netbook (Samsung NC10)
    => Granpa needed a monitor soon so i gave him the one I was using :wallbash: and told me that I could choose a monitor that the shop sells so he will pay that for me (we own an electronic store, ovens,pcs ...)
    => I bough my mother a bracelet
    => My father a Levis jean
    => And my aunt a big pillow I dont know how you call it but its the same with the one bit-tech have (the brown one :p )

    Thats about it :idea: it was the only year I earned more than 200E the whole season as my sister and brother... So I think we deserved it a bit! :idea:

    I am not going to accept comments like omg your so rich you ******* and so on!

    In anyway have a nice Christmas and take good use of your very own presents

    Lots of random bits and bobs
    Etymotic ER6is
    A load of pans
    I asked for one small pan (to cook pasta in essentially) and got a huge set of really nice pans! I would have preferred the new screen that I didn't get though </scrooge>

    Several checks and gift certificates
