Holiday Wish List 2010

[snogged]

S T E P . O N E - make a post 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 (fics, picspams, fanmixes) to medium (dvds, books, bracelets, etc) to really big (a new computer, a car, etc). 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 e-mail address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.

S T E P . T W O - Surf around your f-list 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.

For your reference, I'll be adding this to my sidebar links.



1] Fanfiction for any of my favorite fandoms and/or pairings. This includes Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel the Series, Leverage, How I Met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory, The Vampire Diaries (seriously, if anyone can write me a Caroline/Stephan OR Caroline/Damon fic, I’ll love you for an eternity.) As for pairings, I’m fond of the unconventional and alternative ones, but there are a few canon ones I like. A majority of those I like are listed on my profile page.

2] Any books written by Roald Dahl, Neil Gaiman, or Terry Pratchett. I loved Roald Dahl as a kid, but I only read them at the library and it would be great to have my own copies. I also must sadly admit that I’ve never read the Discworld series or American Gods and I’d like to fix that immediately.

3] Mix CDs. Send me your favorite songs, songs you’d think I’d like, etc. One particular request I have though is “Like A G6” by the Far East Movement.

4] Something from my My Amazon Wish List

5] Green and Silver Slytherin Scarf. I’d prefer a hand-made one to factory-made one, but I’m not picky. Thanks magpieinthesky!

6] Methland: The Death and Life of an American Small Town by Nick Reding.

7] Giant Microbes (http://www.giantmicrobes.com/us/main/giantmicrobes-originals/). They’re cute, and fluffy, and won’t make you sick (unlike the real thing).

8] Anything related to Cthulhu. As I am completed fascinated with this Lovecraft creature.

9] Rubber ducks. I have a rubber duck themed bathroom so I'm a big fan of these little guys.

10] Letters, Christmas cards, some type of mail. I get giddy walking to my mailbox and seeing something that has my name on it.


Speaking of Christmas cards, I opened up a post yesterday (which can be found HERE ) for people who are interested in receiving one from me.

Also, if you need my address please send me an email at penglii.girl @ gmail.com or message me through LJ and I’ll get that information to you.

Finally, if any of you are posting one of these please feel free to send me the link!

Thanks!

I can send you a link to "Like a G6" by Far East Movement.
Playlist.com --> http://www.playlist.com/searchbeta/tracks#like%20a%20g6/all/1
Does that help? The site is absolutely free and there is no downloading. It's just a streaming site, but you can search and add things to your playlist. I looooooove it!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I would like to have the download as well, but this is great, thanks for sharing!

[hellolamppost17.livejournal.com]

I can definitely do #3 & #10! Especially #10, I love writing letters.

(I will message you for our address soon!)

[snogged.livejournal.com]

YAY!

[hellolamppost17.livejournal.com]

P.S.

http://www.box.net/shared/lj8thv6lkk

There's "Like a G6" for you to download if you want. I had it saved to my Box.net account!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Thanks!
I'll have to snag it when I get home.

[mordere.livejournal.com]

lol Casey is still working on #5 from last year, because she's a lazyface.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Hee. :)
Good to know.

[mordere.livejournal.com]

Also. I probably won't make an actual playlist or CD for you, because I'm lazy, but here's Like a G6.

[dischargie.livejournal.com]

I'm sure I can do #3 and #10... :)

[rileysaplank.livejournal.com]

For 2 would it matter to you if the books are 2nd hand? If not I can definitely send you a copy of American Gods (It'll be a couple of weeks before I get paid again and can post is out to you but you should get it by Christmas) and I'll see if I can bare to part with any of my old Discworld novels but can't promise anything on that front.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

As long as there aren't any pages missing, I'm totally okay with second hand.

Do you want me to send you my address?

[rileysaplank.livejournal.com]

That would be useful, my email address is:

rileysaplank @ gmail . com

without the spaces, obviously.

[idioticonion.livejournal.com]

I have loads of giant microbes (I think about 6?) and they are awesome. I love The Pox. And Black Death.

I can probably do you some fanfiction. But Christmas is weird for me this year as I'm in Cyprus at the time when I'd normally be sending cards and presents. I'm just not going to stress it!

[sionnach-ayame.livejournal.com]

I'm going to try and send you something! *hugs*

[rileysaplank.livejournal.com]

And I've just done my wishlist:

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

I think I already know what I am going to send you...

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I actually know what I'm sending you too, seeing as there are things I promised you months ago that I haven't sent yet. ;P

[shakensilence.livejournal.com]

I'll make you the scarf. I can't guarantee you'll get it by Christmas, but you'll get it around that time. Send me your address sometime so I can send it to you when I'm done.

OOOO... I have a project to do!!! I love those.

[whichclothes.livejournal.com]

I did a bookshelf purge recently and you know what's in my purged pile? The Best of Roald Dahl. Oh, I've always loved him. It's all yours. And maybe a fanfic surprise. :-)

Oh, and seriously? Read American Gods. I loved that book.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Thanks lazyface. :P

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Whatever you can do, babe.
*hugs*

[snogged.livejournal.com]

OOH! I wanna go to Cyprus. Hope it's awesome!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

*smishes*

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Saved it to my mems.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

You are a genuine sweetie.

[whichclothes.livejournal.com]

I'm always happy to find new homes for good books. :-)

[mypetconcubine.livejournal.com]

Bought you American Gods via amazon it's coming watch for it.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

*wibble*

You're such a sweetheart!!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I believe it arrived today.
Permit me to squee all over the place?

[mypetconcubine.livejournal.com]

Lol I am happy I could brighten your holidays

[emeraldswan.livejournal.com]

I cannot promise a scarf, but I will try. It may be (long) after Christmas before I have time to actually finish it.

You will get fic, though. I have already written it. And I have been considering asking if I could write a fic in your Lindsey/Fred 'verse sometime. But only if you wanna let me. :)

[snogged.livejournal.com]

You absolutely have my permission to write fic in my Lindsey/Fred 'verse. *squee*

[angelskuuipo.livejournal.com]

I have something for you off your list. Would you like to know what it is or would you like it to be a surprise?

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Surprise me?
*squishes you*

[emeraldswan.livejournal.com]

Yay! :)

Thank you.
