Holiday Meme, my wishes
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 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.
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--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.
Ferramentapenna's List:
1 ) To be able to spend more time with the people I care about
2 ) To find a hobby that I fully enjoy
3 ) To find a job or career that I'm truly happy with
4 ) To make sure that my friends find the same
5 ) To ensure that I never hurt anybody, especially not those that I care about
6 ) To hear people appreciate eachother more often
7 ) To ensure that my education doesn't go downhill
8 ) To always be able to offer help to people who need it
9 ) To never see a friend fail at anything
10) Computer upgrades
This is less materialistic, more surreal side of my wish list. More like life-wishes than just Christmas wishes, but oh well.
