Most people I know have socks for christmas yet the only pairr i can remember I had were slipper socks I asked for.

Are your parents not supporting you through college?

Last year, I just asked for my present to be cash, so I got $200 + a few small things from each side, and I paid the rest myself.  This year, I'm doing a workterm instead of classes, which only counts as a single class or $300 (rather than the usual $1500 for 5 classes), so I don't need money for that.  

So bottom line, no.  I work 24 hours/week during school and 30-40 out of school to support myself right till now.  Now I'm going to be making good money for 4 months and be able to pay for it myself.

I'm just saying don't be ungrateful for all your parents do for you already.

I'm not, what I get from them is awesome.  But it's not fair to get a computer PLUS tons of games PLUS cash. :)
