[Closed] Christmas Countdown: A Note to Father Christmas - Wishlists

It's that time of year again, fellow NWers... it's December 1st, Christmas is in the air, and Christmas topics make their return to NarniaWeb :D .

Let's kick off the season with a special topic (and one that is 100% moderator-approved I might add ;) ). A topic created for sharing wishlists... because no one is ever too old to put down a few requests in a letter to Santa ;). Or Father Christmas , as many Narnians prefer to call him :) .

So what are a few things you would like to receive this year? Making a list has been a yearly tradition for me as long as I can remember, and I don't think that I've ever had a shortage of ideas ;) . And hey, I always dream big; so just remember, you can be creative as you want to be when making up your list :P.

I'll start off with listing a few things on my list:

1. A USB microphone (for recording ocarina music).
2. 2013 Wolf calender
3. T-shirts (I have a few wolf designs in mind ;) ).
4. A couple of movies I've been wanting to watch.
5. C.S. Lewis's Cosmic Trilogy (highly recommended to me by a very influential NWer ;) )
6. New Houston Astros jersey or cap... they just changed their team logo/colors, so I'd like to stay up to date with my pro baseball team :P.
7. A fedora (don't laugh! P I used to have one, but I outgrew it long ago... always wore it while hiking/walking/trekking).
8. Anything having to do with any species of canid :) .
9. A new phone.

But that's enough about me and my interests . More than enough :P. Your turn! If you don't feel like making a list, feel free to just talk about gift you're giving this year (but make sure the intended recipient of the gift doesn't view this topic! ;) ), funny gift ideas... anything else along those lines. Have fun!

And as I said, this is just the beginning of the NW festivities this year :D . Here's a full list of the upcoming topics so you can take a peek ahead (just no peeking at your presents ;) ).

Week 4: December 1
Christmas Wish List
Christmas Decorations

Week 3: December 8
Christmas Music
Christmas Recipes

Week 2: December 15
Christmas Books
Christmas Movies

Week 1: December 19
Christmas Traditions

These topics will be springing up in the Spare Oom each week from now until Christmas. A big thanks to the members and mods who are opening each of these threads. I hope everyone else is looking forward to these as much as I am :).

I'm getting a vacation for Christmas. :D My parents are helping me fund a trip out west for a friend's wedding. I didn't really ask for anything else, though I think they'll be taking me to see The Hobbit (and possibly Les Miserables too).

Yay for Christmas :D

My list is actually fairly small this year as I have been pre-warned my parents don't have the money to spend on it and frankly I have no idea what I want, but...

-A 2013 wolf calendar I keep seeing at the store (preferably only 1 this year :P)
-Pez candies, peppermint patties, and other goodies for the sweet tooth
-Timothy Hay and toys for the rabbit/guinea pig
-Anything wolf, rabbit, horse or dragon related ;)
-for somebody to do something good for somebody who needs it :)
-to go to Raquette Lake, Blue Mountain Lake, or the High Peaks region sometime over break
-and the thing on my list that isn't happening... I kind of want a tablet pc... if for no other reason than to give this poor laptop a break :P But mom just got a small laptop for herself (and frankly she needed it more than I did) so I'll wait on it :)

I don't really have a Christmas wish list this year, I'd love a couple of new books 'Les Miserables' 'The Full Collection of John Keats' 'Shakespear's Comedies' and 'The Chronicles of Narnia' (I've only got the Narnia series in ebook form, I'd love to have them in book form). Other than that, I can't think of anything....maybe I will as December rolls on

always be humble and kind

Fun thread! It's been neat reading all of y'all's lists.

Well, I would say a Kitten Calendar, as that seems to be my sister and my tradition every year, but I already got me a Sleeping Kittens Calendar. Cuteness for the year. :D :D/

Anywho... I'm not really sure about one thing I exactly want and I'm not dying to get something or another. I had gotten something I wanted for 2 or so years for my birthday, so I'm pretty content.

But a small list:

-Fuzzy socks, of course.
-A tripod and new batteries for my camera (which was the birthday gift :P )
- Well, my collection of Disney and Pixar films is wanting.. We own very few of them, so some of those would be nice, to build our collection.
- Some of my favourite soundtracks and CD's. All the Pixar soundtracks (excepting "Brave", which I have not heard.), The King's Speech soundtrack. There are a couple CD's which I would like: probably some Switchfoot, a collection of Chopin's Nocturnes and stuff.... There are others which I don't want to take the time to list at this moment, unless of course someone want to buy them for me. ;;) (joking, of course)
- seeing The Hobbit
- Books are always welcome.
- Chocolate. Just. chocolate. =p~
- Those soft cellophane-wrapped caramel candies. My favourite.

I'm not asking for much this year. I know the monies are tight for all, but I would like an extra laptop battery and a smaller wireless mouse, as well as a bunch of books to read over the summer so I'm not held back by having to go to the library :P
Also I would like a job that doesnt require me to work so I can get school stuff done and get paid for it :P


no longer active. every once in a while ill pop back for the memories. good to see a few recognizable names 🙂

This is basically my wishlist/to-buy-list. I know I'm not really going to get, but one thing off of it. But it's still fun to make a wishlist. :)

Music....
Miracle by Third Day
Third Day by Third Day
Inside and Inbetween CD/DVD by Tenth Avenue North

Movie....
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadow

Books....
Songbird Under A German Moon by Tricia Goyer - I haven't read this book yet, but it looks really good and I really want a new WWII fiction book. ;;)

Remembered by Tamera Alexander - it's the last book in the Fountain Creek Chronicles, from which I already have the first two books.

Other....
New food coloring (not going to happen, but hopeful I can buy some in the new year.)

And lastly, there is a linen dress downstair in my gift box that I'm hoping I will get for Christmas and not have to wait until my birthday for. :D

For Christmas, I'd really love a stand/speaker for my iPad. Either that, or some new books - one can never have too many! :D But the really special thing I want this year is a weekend trip to NYC to visit my best friend.

Great lists so far everyone...

-A 2013 wolf calendar I keep seeing at the store (preferably only 1 this year :P)

Great minds think alike! ;)) Not just in regard to that one item either... great list! :)

- A wolf calendar, because of peer pressure in this thread :P

Can't beat 'em, so join 'em! ;)

Well, I would say a Kitten Calendar, as that seems to be my sister and my tradition every year, but I already got me a Sleeping Kittens Calendar. Cuteness for the year. :D :D/

Or those work as well :p

- seeing The Hobbit
- Books are always welcome.
- Chocolate. Just. chocolate. =p~
- Those soft cellophane-wrapped caramel candies. My favourite.

Chocolate and The Hobbit... yep, those would go on mine :P.

And just for the record, I don't really have all of those things I put down on my actual list... like I said, I think big :P. But a few of those things are on there (the books, calender, shirts ;) ).

I thought of couple more things I would love to have.

Steady business for our Etsy shop. ;;)

A trip to Lake of the Ozarks with my whole family (including grandparents and cousins), complete with walks in the woods and by the lake, the chance to take a lots of pictures with the Rebel, and watching the sunset beyond the lake. :) It's my favorite place. :D
