Christmas gifts!
Jan. 3rd, 2024 08:35 amChristmas is, unfortunately, over, but that means that now it's time to share all the stuff I got. Cuz this year I got some very nice stuff... :) If anybody is reading this please don't take this as me bragging. I just think the stuff I got is cool so I wanna put it on here. This year was a very music-nerd-y Christmas, as I got a lot of cool music stuff. I'm so thankful for having parents that like the same music as me...
I got 4 band shirts, which was a surprise, cuz I thought I was only getting 3! I remember being on the phone with my dad and picking out the shirts I wanted from a website he sent me. I picked out a Daft Punk (Homework) shirt, a Kraftwerk (Computer World) shirt, and a Talking Heads (Remain in Light) shirt. But in addition to that, I also got a They Might be Giants shirt! I'm going to Ireland for the New Year so obviously I'm bringing all of them.
I also got 2 sets of 3 TMBG pins, which I'll have to find somewhere to put... I was thinking a jacket, but I'm always so scared they'll fall off... Maybe I'll put some on my bag, some on my school pencilcase, and maybe a few on a jacket. But I'll always keep my eyes on them. I do NOT want to lose them.
And finally, in the music realm, I also got a Talking Heads vinyl - specifically Little Creatures. I'm an alien to the vinyl world - I don't really get anything that goes on there. I'm not even if you can hold them by the .. Uh.. Disc-y part. The not-centre part. I'm too CD-brained. I'll have to search online about that stuff. (Also - my dad got a record player! that also plays CDs! My Daft Punk CDs will finally come to use...)
Another thing I'm really happy about is the Duck Ruffler plush I got. My dad ordered him in like, August or something, so I was a very nice and very patient little boy and waited happily for my Buck... And now he's finally here. He's actually right next to me, right now! I'd put a picture of him but that's too much of a hassle. Just know he's real cool. He's coming with me to Ireland. I also got some Sylvanian Families, specifically the Persian Cat family, which I'm also bringing with me to Ireland cuz I rebranded my old 'Garfield Travels' Instagram account (an IG account where I'd post pictures of a little Garfield pencil holder in the places I went to - I lost him in Thailand, unfortunately) to a 'Sylvanian Travels' account. Fingers crossed I don't lose them too! Also - I don't think I've ever mentioned anywhere online my love for Sylvanian Families... or, Calico Critters, if you're American. Or if you're WRONG. They're called SYLVANIAN FAMILIES, not "Calico Critters"... Uhm. Anyways. I have a whole little house filled with Sylvanian families and it's very cute. I'm obsessed with them. I've had them since I was, like, 3 years old.
Now the last stuff. I got a big ol book about Little Nemo. I'm not really sure why, I think it's cuz I mentioned to my dad that I'd like to get into comics and stuff. I'll read it someday. It seems very interesting! And the drawings are very cool. I also got a Pokemon Eeveelution poster, which I picked out myself while my brother was shopping for presents for our parents... It's cool. I haven't stuck it up yet, though. But I will! It's an awesome poster. Now the last one - a, like... I'm not sure what it's called. Like a newsboy hat. The one old men always wear. Old portuguese men. Pair it up with a dress shirt, sweater vest, and jacket, and I'll turn into a real old-portuguese-man.
It was a great Christmas, lots of food and presents and music and fun. And.. Church. I had to go to Church. But it was fine. It wasn't all that boring. Even though all I really got from that was that Jesus was born on Christmas day. And that, on Christmas day, Jesus was born. And the person who was born on Christmas day was Jesus.
