All I Want For Christmas

Posted in Uncategorized |

I’m broke. I have no money. All I have are a shitload of things I want, and Christmas looming up. :) Okay, I know it’s not just around the corner per se, but I believe in giving you ample time to prepare, and 2 months should suffice. Looking at the price range of my very expensive present list, chances are I’m not going to get anything, but nevermind. I can always hope. Besides, you lot were rather generous roundabout my birthday! :)

Hee. Being delusional is rather fun. Ok here goes:

1. Moby Dick Bean Bag Chair


Found at Anthropology in Holland Village. (Above Thai Express) It’s so comfortable, when j. and I were there one day we just kinda slumped into the beanbags and couldn’t move. As he put it, it saps the life out of you, in a good way - that’s how comfortable it is. Once you sit down, you won’t be able to get back up. And that’s just how I want it.

Cost: About S$270.

Edit: Actually there’s a shitload of stuff I want from Anthropology. There’s this mother cool bottle opener, (caved and bought it!) the notebooks, this pen that looks like a crayon (and writes damn nicely), and all sorts of other things. I hate that place. Every time I walk in, I walk out with a new possession, and much, much poorer. So a nice alternative would just be a bunch of gift vouchers!

2. All Manner of CDs

There are so many CDs I want, it’s not even funny. Email me for a complete list. It’s too depressing to note them all down here. Besides, I’m sure I’ll have caved and bought some of them by the time Christmas comes around.

Cost: Between S$13-S$40 each.


3. iSight

I want the iSight. I’ve wanted it since I got my PowerBook. I couldn’t afford it then (okay, actually I could) and I can’t afford it now (and I really can’t afford it now). My two best friends are very far away and they’re both mac users and they both have webcams and I can see them but they can’t see me and it’s not fair because I know they miss me as much as I miss them! So somebody.. take pity on us and buy me the iSight!

Cost: S$258 from the Singapore Store. (S$237.30 if you can get the edu price!)


4. NES Buckle


Slightly less exorbitantly priced, the geek in me is screaming for these! I’ve conceded to much chiding from friends and I won’t ask for the ataris buckle (apparently the joystick is too obscene hurhur) but I still want this one!! :D

Cost: US$30, or $45 with belt. (Or you can assemble it on your own and then it’ll be a lot cheaper.)


Alrighty, I’m pretty much done being delusional by now. Anyway, even if I don’t get any of them, there are always other things to be happy for, hey? :)

But.. sigh.. I waaaaaant.

Note to self: Stop being a greedy 20 year-old!
