This little box showed up on my doorstep this morning. This being my first gift exchange I had no idea what to expect. The top-most item was a handwritten card with some encouraging words (Which are always needed during finals week). Pulling away the paper revealed the handful of gifts included in the box. These included a new back plate and knobs for my guitar, a Rasberry Pi Zero, The Road by Jack London, and a Daruma doll and a Wikipedia article explaining what exactly that was.

I've already put the back plate and knobs on my guitar and I've been thinking all morning about what to use my Raspberry Pi for. I haven't painted the first eye of my Daruma doll yet because I haven't decided which of my goals to associate it with.

This was an awesome first Secret Santa that will leave a mark on how I give Secret Santa gifts in the future. Thanks a lot to my awesome Santa and I hope everyone has a Happy Holidays!
