How awesome was this? My sister got the below for my Mom for Mother’s Day. I had nothing do with this wonderfulness, but you can see me in that picture below anyway. In another note, my sister has almost 3,000 posts in a purse forum!?

Christmas Shopping 2008

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

It’s never too early to plan gifts, especially for yourself.

Since I live in Vietnam, the only time I really buy stuff is during Christmas, when I return to the US.

Here are some things I’ve been looking at:

  1. Lightsaber Construction Kit: these recently went on clearance, would be interested in in for around $40 (original $100+), but I hear there not quite the same super quality as normal Master Replicas. My feeling is I will not be getting one.
  2. Dark Knight DVD: well, of course.
  3. Mcfarlane Halo Master Chief Figure: just want one, probable end up getting Series 2 or 3, though I like 1 the best.
  4. X-Box 360: price cuts are imminent, and I hope rumors of a holiday pack-in are true. Like Halo 3.
  5. X-Box 360 HD DVD Addon: It’s possible to get a new one around $40 already, and I’m hoping it’ll go cheaper around December, hopefully just people/retailer finally clearing the stuff out, maybe even with cheap movie bundles. Especially with Black Friday.
  6. On HD DVD:

    1. Battlestar Galactica S1 (this is still pretty expensive)
    2. Harry Potter HD DVD Set or just: ($60 on Amazon, and less than $10 per title seperately)
      1. Order of the Phoenix
      2. Goblet of Fire
      3. Prisoner of Azkaban
    3. Transformers: not sure if I really want this. Like Kyle, I wasn’t a fan of the movie so much. If it’s $5, probably will do it since it’s supposed to be a great example of hi-def.
    4. The Game: this isn’t supposed to be so great on HD DVD, but it will be much better than the non-animorphic DVD
    5. The Matrix Collection
    6. Sopranos S6 Part 2 (less than $30 on DeepDiscountDVD, HBO series are always closer to $100)
    7. Batman Begins
    8. Bourne Ultimatum
    9. The Prestige: I loved this movie, already own it on DVD. This version would be an import, so price would be an issue here.

Pictures of the some of these things are below:

Reaffirming I am the Best Gift Giver of All Time

Monday, March 10th, 2008

2008-03-10_10-33-53-379

Yes, I am the best (this is half-joking, but half something I care about)! Gift giving is actually something I pride myself in, I spend a lot of time on them, mainly because I don’t have to give a lot of people gifts, but I do try. And I don’t like general gifts, like “Hey, it’s that one dude you don’t care about, let’s give him a bottle of wine.”

I absolutely hate giving gifts to people I don’t really want to give them to. It’s not about the money, I just don’t want to think about it. Just tell me what I need to get and I will pay for it. But I do believe in giving something personal, and not necessarily expensive.

This is also why I don’t like general gifts myself. If you get me something, and you don’t have to, give me something you truly think is relevant to me. Otherwise, don’t worry about it, I don’t care. Most things that I would want, in terms of general possessions, I can probably afford, so giving me a DVD or toy, or whatever, not really necessary. Just give me something meaningful to you.
