So! My original santa fell through. No big deal, it's the first time in three years that I've been doing this that it's happened. My rematch Santa on the other hand was prompt in messaging me, and he actually ended up being a pretty cool person.

First off, I've never had someone message me and ask me what I wanted. I'm having some unforeseen circumstances come up next year that will keep me out of college until 2018, so instead of school supplies like I normally ask for, I asked him to donate to a charity of his choice from a hefty list I made. Not only did he do that, he was kind enough to donate to the charity my parents volunteer for AFTER he had my gift shipped.

As for the gift: Excellent. I've been writing a lot this year. My old notebook is falling apart at this point, and the one I received is not only in good condition, it also looks cool as hell!

In closing, /u/KUGreg is pretty damn cool, I don't care what anyone else says.
