Need some Christmas gift ideas for myself?

Okay, I understand these types of questions may be really annoying and I'd like to sincerely apologize.

My stepmom is hounding me for Christmas ideas like every year and I just don't know. I'm a 17 year old guy, about to get a car and headed to college in the fall. I don't play any sports competitively but I like watching them. I also like video games (I have Black Ops 2 and Halo 4 already) and music. I like really neat electronic kind of things. I have an iPhone. I also really like TV shows like Family Guy, South Park and Sons of Anarchy (odd combination huh?). And as a guy I like having a few pairs of vans/polo shoes in different colors but I already have a lot. Sorry if this is a lot of stuff just trying to give as much information as possible.

Also my father and stepmom don't give me cash or gift cards because my dad thinks that is "impersonal."

No cash or gift cards? Hmm that's tough. To be honest I'm like you. I would ask for a Tv or something you can use. Do you like longboards? Or some other games? AC3 maybe or blurays of your favourite shows?

If your going off to college soon you could ask for stuff useful for college
Bed
Tv
iPad
Covers for bed
Headphones
Laptop
Vacation
Concert tickets
Hope I help!

I second Loryn's idea of things for your college life. Are you going to stay in a dorm? Go online and checkout the cool things which make dorm life cozy. Mini fridge, electric cup warmer, a good lamp for your desk, etc. Go to your college website and check out if fridges and hot plates are allowed in dorm rooms.

If you are getting a car soon ask for car stuff. OK I have no clue what those things would be.

  • Some ideas for a gift basket? I'm making a gift basket for my schools auction were having and I want to make it a cell phone basket for the iphone 5 so far I only have a hot pink phone case what else can I put to go with it and that's not too expensive?
  • Need some ideas for making videos? So I wanted to try new hobbies and things, and one thing that came to mind was making videos, and if I want to uploading them to youtube. So some suggestions/ideas would be sweet. I have my iphone 5 camera, which is decent enough quality, and I could find some decent editing program. But the question is, what to make videos of. I'm not too sure haha
