What's on your Christmas list?

[Iceglow]

Well according to the convo yesterday seems I ought to be asking for Just for men hair dye and waxing vouchers! That being said, actually on my wishlist? Not a whole lot. There's very little point buying me drink as I've all but stopped drinking, there's very little point buying me games as I've all but stopped gaming (seriously, I watch more let's plays than anything these days. What little time I have for gaming is spent on my 360 playing Destiny or on my PC playing Minecraft). There's very little point in music or films as I can obtain those via other means.

Over all I'm looking at the things I would like and I've come out with this: A nice suit.

.... I wouldn't mind a Terry's Chocolate Orange too... Might have to get my Mum to send me a goodie box or something...

Ever since I moved to a different country from my family I don't really have a Christmas list/get gifts anymore. It's mostly just a couple of gift vouchers (sometimes just cards) and that's about it. Honestly it kinda makes me a little sad as Christmas never really feels like Christmas anymore, especially when I'm usually working it.

I guess the thing I'm looking forward too the most is cooking dinner on Christmas Day after I tried last year and it wasn't a disaster.

Actually on second thoughts..

I WANT THAT DAMN CARD SHORTY SAID SHE'D SEND LAST YEAR! Yeah, nerd, I haven't forgotten.

On the off chance anyone on EoFF wants to get me anything. Disney stuff

Honestly I'll just be happy to spend a nice week with Danielle, chilling out and enjoying each other's company. I'm a pretty easily pleased guy. Perhaps a nice clean flat and not having to worry too much about cooking, that'd be neat (but also is very unlikely xD).

Mostly I just want to feel relaxed. Oh, and I really really hope Gordon Ramsay is back on the telly this Christmas because last Christmas he wasn't and it just ruined all my hopes and dreams.

That's because Gordon Ramsay is busy over here in the U.S. and I'm sorry, but you can't have him back.

(jk I'll share)

Could we do like an actual Secret Santa?

I know a lot of people are strapped for cash, but we could keep it down to 1 actual gift under $10 or so?

[Night Fury]

I would also be against a Secret Santa, I've been part of them in the past with other online communities and the amount of people who actually get nothing despite signing up is horrible. This can be either they get lost in the post, or someone actually forgets or doesn't get the gifts for whatever reason.

I remember in the EoFF Xmas card send off, half of mine never got there, and I only got a few too. So either yeah they got lost in the post or people just ended up not participating after they signed up.

Vouchers. Gift vouchers everywhere.

[Pant Leg Eater from the Bad World]

Nothing. I don't want things.

[Calliope]

I want so many things: For the doctors to figure out what's wrong with my shoulder, to go home, for my brother to visit, to be able to take advantage of the many study abroad options being offered by my school, to go on holiday, to stop being allergic to so many kinds of food, for my parents to reach out to me, to get promoted, to get a pet, for people to want to have their picture taken with me, a book of family recipes/stories, a huia feather, art and artifacts, lost taonga. I ache for these things.

I also wouldn't turn down a snare drum/hi-hat, a chest of drawers, a small sofa, a clothing rack, a specific blazer, a wristwatch, a record player, a tattoo, tickets to the inevitable next expensive concert/festival announcement, books of poetry or short stories (no time for novels, anymore), a Maori dictionary, a nice jersey, blankets, scotch, an immaculate household, writing workshops, postcards sent through the mail, silly drawings, the rolling of dice, these things that are all shorthand for community and potential.
