Four siblings (one by marriage), a slew (slough?) of adults, many friends, most family up north, etc. Disadvantages = Expensive, confusing, me being youngest, many far away. Advantages = Direct family all here (besides a grandma and grandpa), me being youngest (of direct), most (if not all) Christians.

Especially around Christmas *cough* being youngest is a good thing. Yes, this is an entry stating what I got for Christmas:

Family:

A tons of candy and little novelties in my stocking (yes my family does stockings, though generally we can only fit a small fraction in the stockings XP)

$50 (and a summer sausage)

All seven of The Chronicles of Narnia books in one (<3)

The first (and currently only at least in America) two manga volumes in the Bakuman series (NOT Bakugan, big difference)

The Force Unleashed II for Wii (fun :3)

Meltdown (:3)

Indescribable by Loui Giglio (really good Christian speaker)

A few mugs (IPSIPSIP)

Salt and pepper shakers (joke in my family [mostly Northern family])

More (=D)

Friends:

Von Nebula (great Mocing potential here)

Scorpion lollipop (yes I ate it)

Habanero Hot Sauce (believe me, it's a gift to me)

A Mario-style extra life (filled with little candies)

An old Mario hoodie (says Super Mario Bros. 3)

TBC (Ooooh...)

In other news, I was forced to stay home from Church this morning because I'm still sick. *cries*
