Christmas wishlist
18 years ago
Here we go, because I'm a little sweetheart X3:
STEP ONE
Make a post (public, friends-locked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your DA journal. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a ______ 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 DA or link to this post so that the holiday joy will spread.
STEP TWO
Surf around your friends list (or friends' friends, 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 -- do it.
You need not 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. Give, and you might receive. and you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
1. A cake, or some cookies. Or sweets I won' t get here in Germany. Yeah, sounds weird, but when you've lived for five month only from little money, you won't have the oppertunity to buy some candy. And that's why I want candy.
2. A new icon, because my one sucks.
3. Help with my fursona. I am still not happy with his design, and I still hate him. Gawd I hate Yed but I will never get rid of him.
4. All Resident evil games available for GameCube. No matter if they are used or new and no matter if they are PAL or NTSC (because I have a freeloade, yeah XD) But I mostly want them from every other country besides Germany, because the German vesions suck.
5: A cap for Dayli, because she always has trouble with her ears when it's cold, and it's damn cold in this house. Only 9° C (yeah, that's true and the heater is to expensive to switch on.)
6. A huge and tasty bone for Spike. She loves bones either from pigs or cow or even lamb. And some dogchocolate. She loves it, but it's not easy to get here.
7. A new tablet. No matter if it's a used one or smaller than my curent Aiptek, as long it's better than my tablet now, because it sucks.
8. Getting all coms done until Christmas.
9. Being able to take my holiday in January.
10. Improving my art. Especially traditional art.
11. I wish that everyone, no matter how little money they have, has a great christmas. I at least try my best to make my family happy.
12. A sniper rifle. Don't ask. >.>
13. A hunting knife, because working in the morning in the darkness outside alone on weekend cann be dangerous. *thinks about this morning* Yeah it can, especially on WE.
14. A third blanket, because it's so cold in my room.
15. Getting my highschool diploma in two years. I still have trouble with learning due to my bad health. (still coulnd't go to see a doctor.)
I guess that's it. Now I think I should try and make some wishes come true by myself. Like learning a bit or drawing.

Und das ganze nochmal auf Deutsch:
(ich schreib die Regeln aber nicht noch mal auf deutsch hin, nur soviel, ihr könnt auch eine Wunschliste machen, mit Sachen die erfühlbar sind, oder auch Dinge die ihr euch schon immer gewünscht habt, aber die keiner erfüllen kann. Danach surfed ihr durch eure Freundesliste und schaut wer auch eine Wunschliste hat und versucht andere Wünsche zu erfüllen, vlt erfüllt dann auch irgendwer eure.)
1. Kuchen. Oder Kekse, oder irgendwas Süßes, das man nicht oder nur schwer hier in DE bekommen kann. Wenn man monatelang kaum Geld hat kann man sich nix Süßes leisten,d eswegen will ich was Süßes.
2. Einen neuen Avatar, meiner ist doof.
3. Hilfe mit dem Design von meiner Fursona. Ich bin noch immer nicht zufrieden mit ihm. Und ich hasse ihn, komm aber nicht los von ihm.
4. Alle "Resident evil" Games die es für den GameCube gibt, egal ob neu oder gebraucht, oder PAL oder NTSC, ich hab nen Freeloader also ist das egal. Am liebsten aus jedem anderen Land, außer DE, weil die deutschen Versionen sch*** sind.
5. Eine Mütze für Dayli. Sie hat bei diesem Wetter immer Probleme mit den Ohren und es ist verdammt kalt in diesem Haus (nur 9° C) und die Heizung anmachen ist zu teuer.
6. Einen leckeren, großen Knochen für Spike. Sie liebt Knochen, entweder vom Schwein oder vom Rind, Lamm ist auch gut. Und Hundeschokolade. Die ist hier schwer zu bekommen.
7. Ein neues Tablet. Meins geht langsam kaputt. Egal ob neu, gebraucht oder kleiner als meins, so lange es besser ist als mein billiges Aiptek.
8. Alle Commissions bis Weihnachten fertig zubekommen.
9. Dass ich meinen Urlaub anfang Januar durchbekomme.
10. Mein Maltechnik zu verbessern. Vorallem im traditionellen bereich.
11. Ich wünsche das jeder, egal wie wenig Geld er hat, ein schönes Weihnachten hat. Ich für meinen teil versuche meine kleine Familie so Glücklich wie möglich zu machen.
12. Ein Sniper Gewehr. Fragt nicht. >.>
13. EIn Jagdmesser. Es kann gefährlich werden morgens im Dunkeln, alleine draußen arbeiten zu müssen, vorallem am Wochenende. *an heute morgen denk*
14. Eine dritte Decke, weil es so kalt in meinem Zimmer ist.
15. Mein Abi in zwei Jahren zu bekommen. hab immer noch Probleme mit dem Lernen wegen meiner angeschlagenen Gesundheit (konnte noch immer nicht zum Arzt)
Nur für den Fall, meine Email addy: akari_ses[at]yahoo.de

I could help with that, however only your own soul searching will find a final design.
15. Getting my highschool diploma in two years. I still have trouble with learning due to my bad health. (still coulnd't go to see a doctor.)
You don't have free or low cost health clinics in Germany? I thought universal healthcare was all over Europe, or at least some form of it. Here in the states, we have a possible future pres if she gets elected (ha ha, US is very male-centric, but one can still hope) who is going to push for universal healthcare like in Canada or Great Britain where everyone gets the opportunity for free health care. It might not be as good as the ones you pay for, but sure is a lot better than having none at all.
And yes, we have some sort of this universal healthcare thing in germany. But after the last "health care refom" we now have to pay 10 € when we go to see a doctor. And after loosing the one job we wouldn't even have enough money to pay all the bills and buy food when I wouldn't sell some commissions and my sister wouldn' give us some money too (she hardly can, she's just a poor student. She took a job just to give us some money and pay for university). We don't even get presents this christmas and I don't have neough time besides finishing coms and learning for the distant learning to at least draw something for my sister. That really sucks.
The health care refoms sucks really.
