a watch, I know I'm so spoiled. I'm making it up by creating a giant FORTRESS OF DOOM for myself in Minecraft, no more annoying sheep for me!!.
What did you get for christmas?
- Thread starter GeorgW
- Start date
My gifts haven't arrived in the mail yet, nor will they before christmas starts.
But I don't mind, its awesome stuff.
It's all upgrades for my pc.
It (my old pc that I am now upgrading) had 2 gb ram, a ddr2 micro atx motherboard with sata 1 and a 2.6 ghz processor dual core.
The upgrades are a gigabyte x58a ud3r which has ddr3 with sata 3 and usb 3 and is large enough for me to get additional upgrades like a sound card and I also get a core i7 950 which is a quad core at 3.06 ghz (gonna overclock to 4ghz) and SIX gigabyte ddr3 ram.
MASSIVE improvement but so far I just have the 6gb ram, but that's okay because the processor has arrived at the post offices but they only open on Tuesday and the motherboard should arrive on Wednesday so yay!

Oh yeah, silly me. I forgot that names usually cost more than actual hardware. I remember looking at stereo receivers comparing two. They were the same brand and were almost exactly the same (the more expensive one may have had a few more ports) except one was THX certified where as the other one wasn't and the THX certified one was like a grand or two more.GeorgW said:

My girlfriend bought me a very, very shiny necklace with our names engraved in a pendant. It looks waaaay to expensive and I feel bad because I didn't buy her anything nearly as good.
But I won't look a gift horse in the mouth, it makes me look very pwetty :3

A new MP3-capable clock, a futon (on its way, finally get off of this ghetto bed), Super Meat Boy via Steam, and some better winter pants.
Useful stuff...except Super Meat Boy. That's probably going to raise my blood pressure in the same way I Wanna Be the Guy did.

Which is a shame, because Sinterklaas is so much more awesome. Especially the candy. Hmmmmm kruidnoten...Nimcha said:
The sham sold to children os a lot more impressive as well. Does America have a nation-wide staged arrival of Santa Claus, complete with all kinds of corresponding activities that somehow all relate to some epic adventure Santa Claus is having, all coordinated by school teachers, celebrities and pretty much everyone else? I don't think so.
But even for Sinterklaas I didn't get any presents. I did get 500 euros from my grandmother, which was awesome, but my parents or other relatives didn't give anything. Same goes for Christmas as we don't celebrate that, it's actually my mum's birthday today.

-A water heater
-Clothes
Awesome Christmas
