Merlin's balls, everything in here is beyond wonderful! I am so sorry that this post is late, a lot of really unfortunate things have happened, and I have had a really rough few weeks. I suddenly owed a lot of bills, things happened at college/with my health so I had to temporarily withdraw until fall quarter, and my grandpa has colon cancer and is being taken off of life support. Receiving such a thoughtful gift where it is clear how much time has been put into it has been so wonderful, and something I really needed today. Thank you, Santa, for everything.

When I got to the post office, pink slip in hand, I was given a long, triangular prism! It had a Slytherin S with a snake, and I was so excited! I actually read a message from my Santa as I was walking away with my precious (sorry, wrong fandom!), and apologized for it taking so long.

Unfortunately, my excitement for the gift was a bit dampened, as I received the news that my grandpa, who was in the ICU at the time, has been diagnosed with colon cancer, but since he was too weak for treatment, was going to be taken off of life support. This info was smuggled to me, as my father wasn't going to let me know (long story).

However, thinking about the possible contents of this box did lift my spirits a little, and when I got home, I tore into the package, eager to reveal its secrets.

The first thing I pulled out was a clothy substance. When unrolled, it became clear that this was a Slytherin tank top, which I will wear regularly!

Next, the box produced a long wooden box, of a very pretty red-purple color! And it has a snake, S for slytherin on the sides, and my username on top! Opening up the beauty revealed a hand made wand, just for me! At the handle end of the wand, the Slytherin S was painted in green. Immediately, I had to pick it up and try it, of course. It worked beautifully.

After gingerly placing my wand back into its box, I pulled out another thin, long rectangular box! This has a leatheresque top, and upon opening, revealed it was Dumbledore's wand, which we all know is the Elder Wand! What fun! It is gorgeous, and I love it so!

After pulling out all these goodies, I looked once more into the box to ensure that I was not missing anything, and low and behold, a folded piece of paper!

This paper was a letter, informing me that I was missed in Slytherin, and contained pictures of Hogsmeade and Hogwarts to help me get over my homesickness! Everything in this care package was wonderful, sweet, thoughtful, and utterly amazing. Thank you so much, Santa, for all the gifts, and the amount of care and thought you put into them. I will treasure everything you gave me, and proudly boast about how incredible my HP Santa is.
