The "What I Got For Christmas" Thread

Agreed. I never wanted to be in a Fraternity (you don't call your country a **** so don't call your fraternity a "frat". However, don't judge until you experience. Our fraternity is all about what they were originally supposed to be for...becoming a gentleman. Yes we are a social Fraternity but every single guy in it is a quality person, unlike those 'other' fraternitys on campus.

I did experience it. I went to one fraternity (there, happy?) party my freshman year (and lets just say the fraternity's name was mentioned in this thread, I won't specify as to not offend anyone), and everyone in it was a condescending prick who acted like they were better than everyone else because they were in a fraternity. It didn't leave a good impression on me and certainly didn't make me want to even consider joining. I'd like to consider myself a quality person and a gentleman and I got there without the help of a fraternity.

I got a european-style license plate for the front of my Saab that matches my Illinois plate numbers. I'm tickled pink!

Can somebody from the EU comment on the authenticity? Being in America I could only go by the word of the manufacturer.

I hate to be a party pooper, but have you checked the legality of using a EU plate in America (for a car registered in America).

I'm very certain that such a setup is not legal in California.

I believe you can have them in states that don't require front plates
 
Depends on the state - before MA required front and rear plates (a while ago, I know) - I knew a kid who had a Euro plate on his Raddo - and got a couple tickets from it before he decided to take it off his car.

I also got a Canon Rebel XTi about a week before Christmas. Last year, I was given an IOU for an XTi, so it was great to finally get it!

Anyway, I'm more than happy and thankful for everything I got.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas.
 
A condo

Just around the Christmas day, I purchased a condo near the river side in the Tokyo suburb. Always good to buy myself things I want:). That place is already wired with the fiber optics and I can get the fast internet connection from the day one I got the keys to my condo.
 
The present that I got

This year I was very lucky to receive lots of presents from my friends who have sent me gifts from all over the world. However, the most exciting present that I have received was a beautiful charcoal portrait 100% hand made of my favourite photo. My parents always knew what to get me in order to suit my preferences.

Where at? Somewhere along Tamakawa?
 
I was told by a cousin some pranksters threw sex toys at people's porches on Christmas. This was in Washington DC.
