Me: Hmm, these characters plays tennis. Let's get them tennis rackets... er no. So boring.

E: Then? Tennis balls?

V: Yea, let's get them 50 bucks worth of tennis balls.

E and me: -_-"

V: Or let's get them a camera, see, here it says that they are going on a holiday!

E: A camera costs 200 bucks... Good idea but that's really expensive.

Me: Makes sense if shared by 3 people wad. Hmm, but we're supposed to disagree with lousy gifts first, right? So let's get them 200 bucks of

All together: TENNIS BALLS.

-After much laughter-

E: So, that's 200 EUROS of TENNIS BALLS.

me: euros?!

V: Are we seriously going to give them 200 bucks worth of balls?

E and me: OF COURSE.

My lecturer let me off for 3rd April!!!! (as long as I attend lecture on 2nd April) So I can go watch ny*co syf!!!!! WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO~~~~

When I first received ms chek's reply about the syf slot this year my first thought was "SHITTTTTTTT ITS SMACK AT THE START OF MY GERMAN LECTURE" and the people I mentioned it to genearlly agreed that the probability of being allowed to skip lecture is near 0 but things worked out!! =)

Moral of the story: Don't ask, Don't know, Don't get. =)
