Wishlist. Because I can.
Nov. 28th, 2004 10:12 pmWell, everyone else seems to be posting one of these in my journal, so I might as well too. Way to be materialistic, Suz!
It's nearing that time of year where everyone goes insane about spending money. So instead of spending untold amounts of your hard-earned cash on relatives you only see once a year and hate anyway, why not spend it on me instead? ^_~
STEP ONE
-Make a post (public, friends-locked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Harry icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
- If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
- Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ or link to this post so that the holiday joy will spread.
STEP TWO
- Surf around your friends list (or friends' friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:
- If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--do it.
You need not spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
FRIEZAESS' WISH LIST
1. A SUBARU PLUSHIE! You know, from Tokyo Babylon. they come on eBay from time to time. I want one so badly!
2. GetBackers merchandise- like Ban's mug! Currently available on tamarket.com.au ^_^
3. A memory stick for my digital camera.
4. X/1999 manga. Any volume will do.
5. A place to crash in Melbourne ^_~ (Or at least the name of a cheap hotel... >.<)
6. Fan-fics featuring Akabane as the uke XD (Yes, I'm obsessed...)
7. Any L'arc~en~Ciel or X-Japan CDs. (Well, any official ones- no bootlegs or stuff you've burnt)
8. A laptop. I don't wanna haul this thing around when I'm travelling >_>
9. A new mobile phone... one of those fancy ones that take pictures and video footage. Ah, materialism...
10. Some shiney new silver jewelry... or anything Goth, really ^_^
If you care to ravish me with any of these gifts over the holiday season, drop me a line at frieza_rocks@hotmail.com Offereings of wine and first born children can be left on my doorstep. Thank you.
