Your Christmas Wishlist

null

Sure, you know its coming, but most people still seem to get caught off guard by the holiday season. I am usually one of those people and find myself doing last-minute shopping, but that won’t be the case this year. Call me cheap if you want, but I can’t justify the gift-giving like I have in the past.

For a guy, Christmas shopping for others can be tough, especially when people won’t tell you what they want. I’m far from a mind reader and well, without some idea of what to get someone, I usually end up taking the gift certificate route after wasting hours of shopping around aimlessly. With that being the case, you might as well just exchange money with that person and thus, you break even like nothing ever happened lol.

But I can’t blame others for not telling me what to get them, because I do the same. It never fails and every year is the same. During the middle of summer, I could write a page-long list of things I would like to have. Come December, I can’t name a single item and this year is really no different. I can think of maybe two things that I would kinda want. I say kinda, because if I wanted them bad enough, I would simply go purchase them myself.

But, what is fun for me around this time of year is seeing gifts that others receive. Maybe that is weird, but I enjoy watching others unwrap their gifts and just generally being nosy and seeing what everyone got :)

So with that being the case, I present the question here for everyone… what is on your wish list this year?

    I want a digital camera. I don’t even care what brand it is right now if someone is getting me one.

    I must be the ONLY blogger to not have a digital camera….and still be relying on my cellphone camera…which is not very good.

    You may be the only… person… without a camera! They’re so cheap now

    I agree that it’s hard to buy presents for people, especially on a low budget, so I don’t really like shopping for them. Because I don’t get people presents though, I don’t really like it when they give me them either. The whole present thing never really made sense to me anyway.

    But, if by some magical physical phenomenon, Santa does exist… I need pants. Mine have holes, haha

    (Even then, for Christmas I’d rather just go and get myself some pants than have someone give ‘em to me)

    A digital camera, which I bought myself for a present. Olympus 1050 SW, very nice cam.
