Christmas Wishlist Meme.
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 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. [Note: Your home address is not required!]
- 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 guarantees with this project, 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 Wish List:
1. Holiday cards! I really, really love receiving mail. It makes me happy!
2. Awesome Handmade things whether its writings, papercrafts or cupcakes.
3. Packages filled with anything interesting - assorted candies and squishy things amuse me.
4. Anything from my Amazon Wishlist
5. MixCDs
6. Dinner Dates; seriously, take me out to dinner. I miss hanging out with people and being able to catch up with them, so this would be perfect.
7. Header image for my journal: because I miss having an awesome looking journal. Containing any of my fandoms.
8. A book! I am going to have some free time over the holidays, and I really want to spend that time reading some awesome books.
9. LJ icons! I like pretty icons. Fandom-related(check my interests!) or a default icon with my name on it would be nice.
10. A Blender. I know its weird, but i really want a good blender.
