Wishlist meme
- 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.
1.A new 'friends only' banner or header or lj layout because my friends only banner is like...2 years old? or something like crazy like that, and i do love shiny new things. Any of my fandoms would be fine(though at the moment I'm obsessing heaps with vmars, prison break and bsg(lee/kara baby!) if you want ideas!
2.Mixcd's(of your favourite bands/songs or just music that I should be listening to). I'm always up for great mixes and discovering new artists.
3.Paid Time My account expires in January, and we all know how much a value my paid times/huge honkin amount of icons.
4.Things to put on my walls, preferably made by you! Drawings, writings, collages, all that. I have alot of room left and I would love to stick some to from you up.
5.Anything from my huge Wishlist(aka evidence that materialism pwns my soul) particularly the things that are bolded.
6.A new job As in, one the pay wells and lets me have randomly coloured hair.
7.Veronica Mars Season One boxset I want this like woah!
8.A hair straightener because when my hair is straightened? it looks awesome! when not straightened? yeah, lets not go there.
9.T-shirts with good 'slogans' on them. Either homemade or store bought(once again, theres a stack on my Wishlist). Fandom-y/geeky related writings are always good(such as my 'i only like fictional boys' shirts...getting my drift?) because I like wearing my geekdom proudly!
10. Stuff in the mail! I love getting stuff in the mail! send me letters, postcards or random junk!
and if you need my address its here. Thats a friendslocked entry, so if you can't see it just email me at fabricatedstar @ gmail.com. Splendid!
