When we were on holiday in America a couple of weeks ago my parents gave me $300 spending money as a treat because they were proud of how I handled the last two years. I found out yesterday they're treating me to purple GHDs to take to uni as I've always had to share straighteners with my mum.

No, nothing. I wasn't expecting anything either.

OP, this is the best answer you're going to get.

well the reason im asking is i finally got into medicine with AAA, probably the proudest my parents have ever been of me, so thought it would be the perfect time to exploit that a little haha! but i dont really want anything, or at least, i cant think of anything i do want.
