Our Christmas days are typically quiet and subdued, alcohol-free affairs that only include immediate family. I ended up missing breakfast, but that was okay since Christmas dinner was huge. Gifts here are usually sparing or functional, it's still a welcome for a get-together in what is otherwise a fairly secular home. Despite all 4 of us having <10 presents each the unwrapping of the gifts still took at least 2 hours, mostly due to my father trying to save as much of the wrapping paper as possible lol. Being a broke student with less than £20 to my name I unfortunately got nothing for anyone s;. In return I got:
- Book on how to draw manga
- Book on *actual* drawn art theory
- A sketch pad
- Putty rubber
- 12 graded pencils
- 5 gel pens
- New earphones (old ones broke)
- New headset (old one broke)
- Some cash for a few weeks groceries
My family seem to be trying to tell me something regarding picking up drawing seriously again. I think I'll happily take the hint and run with it.
