Oh well. I don't seem all that concerned. I guess it's because of the stupid 'issue', ha ha. I wouldn't really have been concerned either if I'd received absolutely no presents.
But, I actually am quite pleased with the items I received. My cute little siblings gave me the manga they'd specified, and my father took care of filling in the gaps. I now officially own Fullmetal Alchemist volumes 12-21. One more and I'll own ten volumes! I plan to own the entire series. That and Death note.
I also now have a Fullmetal Alchemist poster, and my sister has a Death Note one along with the first two volumes of the series.
I received several new sketchbooks; two very large ones, one regular sized one, and a really small one. I've been needing a small one for thumbnail sketches and such. And I can probably keep it with me at all times!
I was really happy with a few of the gifts for my darker side and whatnot. I'm actually wearing a t-shirt I got as I'm typing. It's got Jason on it with his mask and sword and he's sad because his calendar says SATURDAY the thirteenth!!!! ... Get it?! I'm such a dork. Along with my cute t-shirt I got a ring. I've been needing a ring. It's an essential piece of my wardrobe that I've been missing.
Father also got me a nail-cross pendant. But he made a mean trick out of it. He handed me a pretty big, heavy box. But no matter how far I unwrapped, there was more tissue paper. Then more wrapping. Then more tissue paper. Then another box. Then tissue paper. Then another box. And so on. He and my family were dying of lafter by the time I finally got to the last level of tissue paper.
I received a lovely journal. It's leather bound and has some metal-mimicking designs on it, and in the center is a gothic fairy sort of picture surrounded by some of the mock-metal. I couldn't let something so great go to waste. Right now it's serving a very important purpose. If you knew what the purpose was you'd know why I can't type it here though, so ha ha.
