I’ve participated a number of times in the past and was shafted for nearly all of them, so my expectations weren’t very high for this exchange.

Oh, was I in for a ride.

After weeks of anticipation, the day to open the gift was finally here! I opened the box, and I was met with a sight I never expected to see! This Santa went above and beyond, and I’m extremely grateful for that! Before opening, I had religiously shook and analyzed the box in order to guess what was in it, but the actual sight of these gifts was INCREDIBLE to say the least.

I got a bunch of journals and sketchbooks, which was perfect since I like to draw and am a student. The mug was super cute, and I have been drinking out of it since this morning. The bonsai kit looks fun, and I will be trying to get it to grow. The magnets are being flaunted on my refrigerator door, and the bookmarks will be adorning my books. I’m still trying to figure out how to play the paint chip poetry game (which, btw, is aesthetically appealing asf), but I’m sure I’ll be able to play this in no time. The Möbius strip puzzle was fun, and I will be showing it off to my friends after the break! I’m saving the cards to be played later, and the birds on my wall!

TL;DR: Greatest Santa in the world. God bless you and happy holidays.
