2010 Year-End Wish List

Since technically, I don't celebrate Christmas, I'd like to call it a year-end wish list rather than a christmas wish list. So, any gifts that I will receive this time of the year will be considered as offerings to the mighty Cleve celebrating the end of a productive year.

This is an official act of communication and plea for my friends and to other people I know to actually give me things as gifts things that I like. So, hey, pick one.

1. Personalized Name Stamp

I would like to receive a name stamp, of course, with my name in it because I want to name all my readings and other priceless paper possessions. Look for it! Not pricey, I think. It should be small like this and I don't want the rubberized manual-type of name stamp. I already have a rubber stamp.

2. Sidewalk Surfers from Sanuk

I want to have one of these cool footwears. This is a bit pricey, I know. But this is my wish list. I know someone financially able can give me one of these Sanuk wonders! But hey, could be any other cool footwear.

3. Plain V-Neck Shirt/s

It should not be any other shirt. First, it should be a shirt. Second, a v-neck shirt. And lastly, a plain v-neck shirt. Any color would do. This is not expensive, guys! C'mon, I know you can buy a plain v-neck shirt for me! You just have to visit the nearest department store to you or any other clothes store and you can already find one. I actually like the plain V-neck shirts from Oxygen. But, I don't mind, any plain V-neck shirt would make me happy for a day ( or for weeks).

4. Slim Automatic Umbrella

I saw this at an SM department store. This is very practical and very helpful. If you know me, I always use my umbrella, mainit man o maulan. So, if you want to give me something that I will always use, this can be it. I like this particular umbrella in the picture. It's very thin or slim and it's automatic. Sleek! Any dark color! We can walk and use this umbrella. Just if you want.

5. Green Tumbler from Starbucks

This! I want to have a tumbler because I would like to drink more water for next year. Part of being healthy shizz. I want it to be green because it's an awesome color. And I like this green tumbler from starbucks. But I don't know if it's still available. I think it's pricey because of the fact na starbucks siya. So, any green tumbler! Plain, simple, sophispicated.

6. Pirate Latitudes by Michael Crichton

For the record, if no one is willing to give me this book as a gift, ako nalang ang bibili. Michael Crichton is my favorite author and this books is actually one of the remaining three works of him that I was not able to read yet. But if you love to read, you know how much this will mean to me as a gift. Buy me this book!

7. Leather Phone Case

Under the assumption that I will have a new mobile phone before the holiday season, I want to have a leather phone case similar to the one displayed in the picture. I'm not a good owner of anything especially cellphone. So I want to have this to protect my cellphone from myself. Are there other colors for this? But black is fine. This one is relatively cheap compared to my other wishes. But hey, quality control guys.

8. Dinner and Movie Date

I want an awesome, cool, amazing and epic end-of-the-year date with someone special to me. It can be a friend or someone more than that. But the only thing that would make the date awesome, cool, amazing and epic is the person that I want to date. I know, this might be too early. We need to step back, don't rush and all those shizz. But this is like the end of the year. Any chance you might want to spend a night with me? Can someone ask the person to actually spend the night with me? Seriously, I know a friend can do it for me.

9. Doodle Notebook ala Moleskine Ruled Notebook

I can use Moleskine first class imitations especially if it's green. But what I just want is a decent doodle notebook. If you could look for a PAGEONE notebook, that would be awesome. But I'm having a hard time looking for it. So, any cool but not that artistic notebook. It will work. I just need a notebook for my doodles.

Because it's in this time of the year that our materialist tendencies are re-energized and that consumerism is at its peak! So, why not channel your materialist tendencies and feeling of consumerism into shopping gifts for me? Why not? But if you could re-channel those tendencies into a year full of support to the mass organizations and student council campaigns, I can and will forgive you.

Happy end of the year! May the capitalist earn double this time of the year!
