(no subject)
As seen in various LJs, both this year and last:
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 ("I'd like a couple new LJ icons made 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, 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, 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.
My wishes:
1. a girlfriend (yes I am loser who wishes for a girlfriend but nothing is better than spending the holidays with someone you love and their family who are always crazy)
2. To see all my friends who are away somewhere else
3. Sox Tickets, Sox Tickets and more Sox Tickets
4. Sirrius Satellite Radio
5. The dvd's that were stolen from me returned
6. To hit the scumbag who stole them
7. a small bit part in an off broadway play or film
8. a trip to vegas with all my friends
9. to learn how to play guitar
10. My parents futures to be secure and my dad to be able to work again
