What are you looking forward to getting this year? Post some items.

For me, I compile a huge list of stuff to give my parents guidelines, not expecting to get half of it. This year was weird, because I had to make one for my dad and one for my mom, so I chose certain stuff for certain people. But my main wants are:

Sawdust - The Killers (CD)
Black Holes and Other Revelations - Muse (CD)
Favorite Worst Nightmare - Arctic Monkeys (CD)
The Orange Box (PS3)
Rock Band Bundle (PS3)
Timeshift (PS3)
The Office: Season 3 (DVD)
The Simpsons Movie (DVD)
Airplane! (DVD)

And a Dad exclusive:
Xbox 360 Premium

Do I seem greedy? I really don't expect all of it. Just to help my parents.

I made a wishlist a few days ago, this is stuff I've thought of that I want.
I tried to come up with a bunch of cheap stuff. Because getting the one expensive present is just no fun.

Stuff I'd like:

•A Wacom Graphire4 Tablet. 150.8mm x 208.8mm (Approx. A5) about 300 dollars. I’m willing to go without pocket money for that after Christmas. I NEED ONE!!!
•Toys. Like, figurines. Not stupid ones. Like, cool ones.
•Money. From someone would be nice.
•A cool video game or two.
•A few more Studio Ghibli movies, like Porco Rosso.

A few Homestar t-shirts, a few VG Cats t-shirts (rat flail one comes to mind right away), Geometry Wars Galaxies (Wii), Zack and Wiki (Wii), Mercury Meltdown (Wii), gift cards, and Pokemon Diamond or Pearl (DS); that's all I can remember right now. Oh, and apparently my dad is attempting to get me a laptop, so that'll be pretty neat if I have the sudden urge to write.

I'm trying to give to others a whole lot more this year though.

A bit off topic, but the fact that in the last ten minutes, you've posted several seconds after me twice in a row is somewhat creepy. :P

My parents keep asking me what I want. I haven't really said anything because I don't like riding them for material goods and also because 24 is a bit old really to be making christmas lists, but they do like spoiling their children. I guess I'll ask for that digital camera I've always wanted but never gotten around to buying for myself, and if there's enough time for delivery maybe that box set of the complete On The Corner sessions. But mainly the camera

Actually, I can't think of a single thing I want this year. My wishlist is empty.

It's vexing my mother most terribly. =3

I don't really know exactly what I want, I normally end up getting money.
I like to be surprised by my presents, even if I didn't really want it, my Mum's partner's family is really good at unorthodox presents.
I've already decided what I'm getting for other people though.

Man, I don't even care. I might get a laptop and I hope I will, but...

I dunno, there's stuff I'd LIKE to get for Christmas, but not enough to go out of my way to tell my parents I want it.

Why yes, I am indeed as boring as crap. Thanks for noticing!

My parents ask for Christmas lists in September and have all the gifts bought two weeks before Black Friday (I know, I've checked). This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it makes me completely unable to add stuff to the list...

anyway:
- increase in weekly school lunch money (i only get $5 a week)
- Mountain Hardwear jacket (you want one too, you just don't know it)
- Wii (already got it)
- GHIII (already got this too)
- Jack's Mannequin CD
- Goo Goo Dolls Greatest Hits CD
- Dave Matthews Band Greatest Hits CD
- new Angels & Airwaves CD
- old Maroon 5 CD

um... what i should have also asked for is Stephen Colbert's book (I have a library copy right now), a new TV (because mine's busted), and the Leaving Through the Window CD by Something Corporate... also a car, but i doubt that would have worked out.

from my siblings i'm getting the Graham Colton CD, the Graham Colton Band CD, and a new copy of Luigi's Mansion (my brother destroyed the old one).

also as a group present we're going to NYC over spring break.

that's it.

hooray.

A recording studio. Hopefully the one COLA linked me to, which is here:

http://www.guitarcenter.com/Digidesign- ... 1177445.gc

I would modify it to my needs (another mic, headphones, etc), but that's essentially it.

You only technically need one mic, so I wouldn't recommend buying another unless you don't like the sound quality of the one that comes with it.
