I'd empathize, but actually, I find the excitement quite thrilling. I mean, is there any other country wherein Christmas is celebrated in as early as September? Where people are excitedly telling their friends to buy them gifts for the holidays? Where Christmas carols are, at the start of the ber months, the background music of McDonald's (go to McDonald's Katipunan XD)?
Which goes to my main topic: the wish list. I've already thought about it, but whenever I ask myself what I'd like to have, my mind goes to a blank. It's like - there isn't an item that I'm dying to have. Is it a sign of contentment, or of aging? T_T Gah.
I've rummaged through the deep recesses of my mind :)), and I found some items which I've been wanting for a long time already:
iPhone/iPod
Probability: Hmm... about 40%.
I have a taste in music no radio station could satiate; thus, I need an iPod with me wherever I go. (Wait, what? If that's your only demand, why not just an mp3? You're so maarte Kring ha!) PLUS the fact that MP3's couldn't keep up with the huge amount of music I have. See, I'm a gamer, plus I'm kinda into Japanese stuff (geeky, geeky). Whenever I play a game, or watch a show (whether it be Japanese or not), I download a copy of its OST, so that the memory of the game/show stays with me. So, aside from the mainstream, rock, alternative, RnB, etc that I have, a huge chunk of my music is geeky music.
Wacom Intuos Tablet
Probability: 0.1%
Because I'm active in DeviantArt, I have constantly been inspired by graphic artists who create their works digitally. Digital, as in via computer. I mean, HOW THE F DO YOU MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND THIS IN A COMPUTER?? Do you.. draw it on MS Paint? o_O *shoots self* Then I found out that they do it using the Wacom Intuos tablet. What happens is, you connect it to the PC, draw on the tablet's screen, and voila! Your drawing, while you're working on it, is immediately put in the computer. You don't have to scan your art works anymore, plus it'd be a whole lot easier to color them using Photoshop or SAI.
Teeth Whitening
Probability: 30%
I have a condition called fluorosis - that is, I was overexposed to fluorine when I was a kid (I USED TOO MUCH TOOTHPASTE ;_;), so now I have mottled teeth. Some parts of my teeth are white; some, yellow; the uneven color of is very obvious. So PLEASE ;_; I've been asking this for two years now. Bleach my teeth, mum, dad!!!
Vans slip-on
Probability: 70%
These shoes are soooo nice! They're really comfy, plus they look great on any outfit. I want my first pair this Christmas! I hope I'd get these - every year, my parents buy us siblings new outfits to wear for the holidays XD So I'll tell 'em I want a pair of Vans slip-ons.
Good luck nalang sakin, di ba? Hehe. But compared to my Christmas wish list two years ago, the items here are more realistic (except for the tablet) XD
