This year all I really wanted was my Bachelor's Degree with good grades and I got it (3.46 out of 4.00). I wanted to be with all of my cousin's on my dad's side; however, I decided that I should instead visit my other side of the family as a gift to my parents. I wanted to get through Christmas without hearing about losing either a family member or a friend like I had to go through last year and we got that. The material things I wanted I pretty much got, season 8 of the Simpsons, the Simpson Movie, political parody CDs, a season of Beast Wars (forgive me I happen to enjoy the higher tech graphics and the talent of writing a good plot), various other DVDs, and etc.

So tdub, have you gotten your Nintendo Wii yet? I remember when I asked for a Sega Genesis back in 1993 for Christmas and my aunt as well as my then living Grandfather, Great Aunt, Aunt's Boyfriend at the time, and others chipped into it. I was exstatic and I still have it sitting upstairs in my room while it is collecting dust and no longer connected to a TV since we no longer have a TV in that room.

I must admit I'm a little confused on having Mountain Dew on your list. Is it because you aren't allowed to have soda/pop normally, or you don't have the money to spend on that normally, or what? The only thing I ever ask for along those lines is Ski which is very similar to and supposively came out before Mountain Dew under a private brand which is only sold in exclusive areas. And the reason why I ask for that is it is hard to get a hold of where I was living for the last 2 and 1/2 years.
