Christmas Haul!


Merry Christmas, everyone! Just a disclaimer: I am not bragging. This is just what I wanted.

Clothes:






I got a couple of things from American Eagle, a shirt from the Vans store, two shirts from Hot Topic, and a pajama set from Macys. I had asked for the Misfits shirt, but I'm happy with this.

Electronics:
I got Despicable Me 2, Kingdom Hearts, and Legend of Zelda. I asked for all three.

Beauty:
I got a curling wand, a nail polish, and four lip products. Happy, happy, happy.

Gift Cards:

I got a Macys and a Target giftcard. I also got three iTunes gift cards: one from my parents, one from my brother and his girlfriend, and one from my neighbors. I'm grateful for them.

Other:
I got a SF Giants Calender and lots of chocolate. That's what Christmas is all about, right?

Thanks for reading, and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my readers!
xoxo,
Dana.
