its en-route to my house because i ordered multiple things from the same site. hopefully it'll get here, i can wrap it all pretty, and send it to my person!


Hope my SS is doing well out there 😉

You did an excellent job with your likes/dislikes last year 🙂

i try 🙂 i mean how much more descriptive could i have gotten then "fuzzy things" ? 😀

although you did an awesome job last yr ! too bad you weren't my SS again. 🙁 heh.

mine was received by my person.... now im just waiting on mine ::twiddles thumbs and stalks mailman:::

 
I've not gotten mine either, but there's still plenty of time. Not the end of the world if I don't get it before Christmas either 🙂 I just hope mine gets to my person before then, though!
 
Thanks for the gift SS ! Perfect timing, have been wanting to pick up a game and I now have the perfect excuse to do so 🙂
 
Finally found something...mine is going out via express tomorrow. Enjoy the gift...hopefully you will like it. Those were definitely some interesting likes and dislikes.

Sorry but just ordered the second item for my SS.

Will be late...but it was hard to pick. I hope they like it.
 
Hadn't gotten around to posting yet, but my the gift from my SS arrived a few days ago. I received a book by Glenn Beck and a CD of Great Big Sea. 🙂 Thanks SS, whoever you are.


I shipped out my SS gift yesterday via 2-day UPS service so, barring any unforseen delays, it should arrive with a couple of days to spare. I hope they like it.
 
Got mine today, Starbucks gift card 🙂....gonna help keep me hyped up and going this week while working two jobs lol

I got a package on my doorstep today, it was my SS gift.

Here are the pics:
Package
Gifts

1. Reservoir Dogs DVD: Probably in my list of top 10 favorite movies, I'll have fun watching all the special features on the 2nd disc.
2. That '70s Show Season One DVD: This was actually a great choice, my roommate introduced me to the series this semester and I wanted to watch the entire series. Now I can while I'm on break these next couple of weeks.

Thanks for the DVDs, SS!

WOW is all I can say....my SS went all out! I received a wonderful Rabbit wine opener with a complete set of wine tools to top it off. A thoughtful gift from my new best friend 🙂. Cheers!
 
wow...my SS owned...they were really creative IMO and i got some freaking BADASS final fantasy nostalgia that i thought was completely awesome! there was even a nice letter to go along with it. i feel really bad about my SS gift i gave out...i dont think it was half the quality of this and my letter didnt say much :'( well...its my first time so i guess i had to learn the ropes :/ sorry to my first SS, but hopefully he/she will enjoy the pres. anywho. i'm def. in for next yr. and ill make sure to do a better job...

man...just man...i am in love with these gifts... ^_^

steiw shot glasses: lol i asked for booze but i'm not of legal age, lol 😛 these are the next best thing ^_^
old FF game cartridge with box and manual!!!! this is awesome...i love collecting FF stuff...this is a nice rareity for me to show off 😀!!!

ill take pics when i finish aweing over them 🙂
edit: due to good wrapping of presants i think it was a girl...but...the handwiriting was girly...although the language kind was...hmmm time will tell 🙂

edit: after a further look i dont it was girl...just a guy with wrapping skills..i know ive said it 10x but this FF game cartridge is so badass...not only is it a nice collectable but it is all in japaneese...which is cool bcuz i'm currently learning the language (written and spoken) 😀!

Sounds pretty cool, you should post some pics in the picture thread.
 
Received my gift today. Thanks a lot SS. My gift for my SS is still on its way. Arriving Friday and will require a signature...so, uhm, yeah 😛 Thanks again, I will have some pics up tomorrow.

Received my gift last night ... posted pics in the pictures thread, but I received a couple of magnetic toys, a stress ball, an Office Space DVD and a funny note. Thanks SS!
