Holiday Wish List Meme 2005
[Updated 2/01/16]
(*Bites lower lip.* Haven't done this before. Have to see how it goes.)
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 fun ("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 possible 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, 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. Then you will have the joy of making someone's holiday wish come true.
My List:
1. Doyle from the Merry Gentry books fic (Drabble, ficlet, whatever.)
2. Alaric Morgan from the Deryni books fic (Drabble, ficlet, whatever.)
3. Any book from Tom Deitz's David Sullivan series besides Windmaster's Bane, Fireshaper's Doom, or Darkthunder's Way. I just have those first three books in the series.
4. Plush, stuff, etc dragon (Something bigger than the beanies I've got. Not the Barbie dragon. *Shudders.*)
5. An icon for Duke Alaric Morgan from Katherin Kurtz's Deryni universe.
6. An icon for Doyle/the Darkness from Laurell K. Hamilton's Merry Gentry series. Made one for myself
7. An mp3 of Peter Cetera's "Glory of Love". Given by fleta
8. An mp3 of Bryan Adams' "Everything I Do". Given by fleta
9. Disney's The Little Mermaid on DVD. Given by my little brother
10. Anything from My Amazon Wish List.
