This was my very first time participating in Secret Santa and I had absolutely no idea what to expect. Filling out the questionnaire was even stressful for me because I wanted to do my best to give an idea of the kind of person I am to my match! I wasn't really sure what I would receive. I went to the mail room today and had a package waiting for me and eagerly ran back to my apartment. I didn't even slip and fall in the snow on the way, success!

Upon opening it, I saw not just one but FIVE perfectly wrapped gifts. Please, Santa, teach me how to wrap presents like you. Mine look like I wrapped them with a blindfold on and that's on a good day, but I digress. I opened the card that was sitting on top and found an adorable puppy inside. I told my Santas (I have two amazing Santas!) that I love animals and they could not have picked a more perfect card for me. If I had just received that card, I would have been perfectly happy. Honestly.

My Santas got me the 1st season of Flash, which I plan on watching during my Winter Break right now, an adorable mini Groot and Rocket Raccoon who have both already settled in nicely on my living room bookshelf, a Doctor Strange t-shirt that is SO SOFT and fits perfectly, a box of chocolate straws that I plan to devour in one sitting tonight, and the cutest little Christmas tree that I have ever seen in my entire life. It's so small and cute and it lights up! How did you know that I haven't put up a tree for the holidays? I'm in school right now and never got around to decorating at all, so this is a perfect little addition to my coffee table. I love everything so much.

What i'm trying to say is that this experience was absolutely amazing! All of my gifts were perfect and both of my Santas went way above what I ever thought I would receive. The fact that two people took time out of their busy lives to put thought into a gift for a complete stranger hundreds of miles away has completely warmed my heart and is the real gift. I cannot say thank you enough. Thank you thank you thank you! :D
