Gee I sure wouldn't have had a merc at that age (I'm 23 and I drive a Toyota). My first car had so many prangs on it from bumping into stuff. Be careful! :D

Haha tell me about it. I've got humble beginnings too; my first car was a '99 honda with over 120k miles on it... great machine it was.
 
Well got myself a 40" Sony TV for the PS3, And a new 30" NEC monitor for the MAC Pro,
The wife and My Daughter surprised me with a Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 Lens and £3000 towards a Nikon D3X DSLR. Havent had time to relax as still working till new year then it'stime to chill play some far cry & resistance 2 then when weather breaks get taking some photogs ;)

I bought it at a book store. Weird, I know. I was working there for a couple of days as Apple promotor and noticed it, and decided to buy it for myself as Christmas present. It was like 10 EUR.

Peace out,

  • More socks than I'll ever need.
  • Calvin Klein boxers despite how I hate their fit.
  • Enough aftershave to drown a small child.
  • Ministry of Sound Anthems II and Annual 2009 'cause of my secret love of dance music.
  • A new towel! I needed one. :eek:
  • £200.
  • £10 iTunes card.
  • Couple of photography books.
  • Dara O'Briain DVD.
  • A vast quantity of chocolate.
  • Starbucks Christmas blend.
  • And bought myself an 8GB touch which should be being delivered imminently.

I'd post pictures but I'm too lazy to find links. Plus, less pictures help those with slow connections. :)
 
Nice Christmas this year. If you knew me and my pops you'd know we aren't all that extravagant, so this was a little big for me this year.

Always wanted a big screen in the bedroom.

Still don't have a permanent stand for it, i'm super finicky.

And the inspiration to get a Mac Mini because it took me three hours to set up the Touch with my Mac, it feezes every time you turn it on.
 
You know, for as many posts as I saw in the "What you want for Christmas" thread that included Flip Video camcorders, I'm certainly not seeing them in here! I'm interested to see how whoever has one likes it. Anyone else get the Flip MinoHD?
