I usually don't get birthday or X-mas gifts because I live so far away from family.
🙁 My parents expect me to just buy something for myself, and usually, I don't. Instead of buying a gift, I buy what I want throughout the year (within reason), and this year, I've already been to Japan in August to see my girlfriend. Yes, a long-distance relationship. I guess that was my birthday present.
For Xmas, I'm getting what I got for my last Christmas and my last birthday.....a trip to Japan.
🙂 The ticket was only around $850-900 USD round trip, including all taxes. I worked and earned around $3000 for my trips, so I guess I paid for the last trip myself, and along with this coming trip. Do they count as a gift?
Again, I never really get a Christmas gift. I guess I bought some clothes for my birthday with my mum's money.
This year, however, I am going to get myself a gift:
- Nikon D300 DSLR
- an SB-400 flash
- Nikon 55-200 mm VR lens. Holy crapcakes it's going to be a good Christmas!!!
😱
- getting away with collecting the tax money back when I leave the country.
But each year, the biggest present is being able to see my girlfriend.
🙂 My only wish is to spend time with my girlfriend, and to get my new D300 before my trip!! I'd be crushed if I didn't get my camera before leaving for Japan.
Wow, I like the green one.
