Who needs presents anyway?

To me I've seen too much out of America with the whole thing that buying things would make people happy nowadays.

Advertising for shopping just sickens me now. It just shows how America is all about going BIG with the economy.

Most people aren't even happy with what they get anyways, and they just buy it just to have it.

Now that I'm 18, I look back on my childhood, and I am disappointed in myself for having all those toys that I wanted spent on me, never ending up being played with. It was just something for me to have, like everyone else brainwashed by commercialism.

Despite being given gifts, I still think it would be cool if you spent the money you worked hard for on something nice for yourself (I'm saying this because I don't have a job yet). You know, treat yourself to the holidays
