Christmas Wishes Really Do Come True?
Well, Pineapple (aka pushingyouaway ) said they do. So do this:
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 (personalized icon, letters ) to medium (CDs/DVDs or clothes) to really big (let's move to australia) The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
- If you wish for real life things (not icons or hate letters kids), 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 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.
Jeannie's Wish:
(1) For this Christmas, I would like above all things, the promise of a beautiful 2005 in which I will be happy and smiling, and might possibly find a man that is worth more than one date. Fuck it, a man worth a date, period. If you're out there, please hurry to me. I need you right now.
(2) A Print Account on DeviantArt.com. $25. Anyone, anyone?
If you're looking for frivolous items, I could also use some new tattoo work. Anyone on Long Island who wants to hook a girl up, e-mail. Thanks. I hate all this blank skin. ;)
