Sooooo... This was my very very very first participation on redditgifts. Great experience!!!

My santa, as my gift, is totally absolutely completely AWESOME! He kept me well-posted and when my gift got held back by customs, he even sent me something 'small' to keep me busy. What did he send me? Reddit Gold! How much did he send me? A month? No. No no no, he send me a year's worth!! So generous!

Then my gift arrived. It went to the post office to pick it up and they handed me a big, heavy box. Cue bulging eyes :D. I got it home safely and then had to wait, 'cause I was a total doofus and had promised my friend I would, before I could open it. Waiting was hard! I went NUTS. I went nuts enough to even bite the box... Finally he arrived and I gave in to my excitement. I went at the box with abandon, opened it, caught a glimpse of fluff and a whole bunch of candy, closed it and started bouncing with glee. (All this is why the pictures are a bit blurry :P). Slowly I opened it again and saw a note. It stated that I got presented with my santa's good friend Lt. Dan, a war vet who lost his rear paws in Nam, and thus needed lots of love. It also said that this brave kitten had apparently eaten part of my gift and needed to be operated! This was a lovely personal touch, as I'm studying to become a veterinarian. On top of a whole box full of bags of differents Polish candies, Lt. Dan got saved from TWO MORE bags of pralines. Waw!

I really love my gift (and my friend was a little bit jealous :P)! Dear jerome-baldino, thank you so much for taking the time and doing the effort to put together such a great and personal gift! You really made my (arbitrary) day, and quite possibly my whole summer!
