Holiday Wish List

Nov 13, 2005 16:52

Because I'm a bit bummed, my breaks ending, and holidays are a bit away. But not long. Only 1 week and a few days till Thankgiving. Whoot!

Step One

- Make a post (public, friendslocked, 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 random-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione 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 (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.

Step Two

- Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, 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--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.

-You needn't 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. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.

Holiday Wish List

The Online Stuff:
1)Icons based on my interests.
2)A layout based on an interest, or just with a cool saying or quote.
3)A fanfiction. (I'm in the mood for HP as a Muggle, for some odd reason, but R/Hr and D/G always work, with an extra helping of jealousy and overprotectiveness)
4)Music, can be in the form of a CD, or sent through E-mail.
Not Online Stuff:
5)Earrings, any and all. I like big earrings- hoops, dangly eaarings, chandeleir-god I cant spell)
6)Cute tees- vintage, or with cute sayings.
7)The Sims, Myst or another cool computer game.
8) Any cute little trinket, piccy, or poster for my room.
9) A paid account

And 10, simply a card or just good wishes, from all of you. (Although an iPOD case might be nice.) =)

Oh and if you want to send me something through actual snail mail, e-mail me fairygirl5th@yahoo.com for teh address.
