There's just a couple meme things in this entry, from my f-list. Have fun.
Now class, today we're going to play a game. Pick one song and ONLY one to describe yourself. Post it. After that, others can comment and tell you what they think your song should be, however outrageous. Got it? Good. By the way? You comment, you post the meme, don't make me come after you.
Oh god, this is difficult xD Let's see here... Avoiding theclichéd sappy ones like "Home" by Daughtry or Linkin Park's "Somewhere I Belong," both of which I considered... Ahhh... Okay. XD Going with "How Far We've Come" by Matchbox 20. Not only is it kind of the way I think, it's a good song that applies to me too. I've come a long way down a long path, even if sometimes I question how special all that is. And like I said it's kinda how I think, too XD (yes, I'm of the belief that things are spiraling to an end; I don't know when, or if it'll even be in my lifetime, but nothing lasts forever)
...Ah fuck, I wound up being kinda sappy anyway. XDXD
STEP ONE
+ Make a post (public, friendslocked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 unlimited holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
+ If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
+ Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.
STEP TWO
+ Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:
+ If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.
+ You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
+ There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
