What a horrible day
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.
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.
10. Pocky. Lots of Pocky!!!!!!!!!......... X_X
9. Someone to help me switch my master and slave drives. I want my C drive to be the slave and F to be the master. But I don't know how.
8. Matthew Bellamy and Michael Vartan. ....... >.>
7. Alias season DVDs. Something I hope NO one gets me, because the guilt will eat me alive, and then I'll rot. 0_______o
6. Someone to pimp my binders. They are so boring, and since I look at them at least 20 times a day, I might as well demand that they be pretty.
5. An electric guitar. XDD. Personalized. That's just my dream. It won't become a reality, since *quote me and mandy* "We have no future."
4. Burned CDs that have a lot of thought put into it. n_n *not that you guys don't put thoughts into your CDs, I'm sure you do. But ... come to think of it, I barely receive burned CDs as gifts. ..... Except for a.. certain few.*
3. Chapters gift card. *I AM NOT A NERD. I LIKE CHAPTERSSSSSS JEEEZ*
2. A plushy. I like plushys. I actually want the condom doll that's suppose to "match" with my sperm doll. *Look at my display pic for the sperm*
1. Personalized things are always nice. n_n. Tee shirts, etc...
