Christmas 2011 Wish List

Since Christmas is just around the corner, here's my Christmas 2011 wish list!

The ideal Christmas wish list, I dare say. Ha ha. Of course, there's no way on Earth I'll be getting those for Christmas, unless my mum and mama Santa suddenly decides that I'd get these since I've been a very good boy this year. So, anyway, here's my real Christmas wish list for this year.

1. Bicycle Black Deck of Cards for dull times only Pusoy Dos can save. Don't worry, no money's involved. No money to begin with! Ha ha!

2. Diary Of A Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney (Book Set) just because I enjoyed the first two books and I haven't read the third and fourth yet. Oh, and I borrowed the first two so I don't really have a copy of them.

3. Paulo Coelho (Book Set) because he's definitely one of my favorite authors. I've been reading Coelho since 2005 and I like the fact that his works never get old, for me, at least. I know I've bought six of the books in the collection but I somehow cannot find them, so that's just a really good excuse reason to get the entire collection.

4. Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan (Book Set) since I got hooked with the first book and I think this set will be perfect for long boring days when all I'd ever want to do is grab something that's not too light to read. Ha ha.

Yes, I made sure that the items on my real and easily-achievable Christmas wish list are locally available! Ha ha! I found all of them in several branches of Power Books and National Bookstore! Ha ha!

How about you, guys? What's in your list this year?

P.S: I'm still praying for the items on the first photo, though! Ha ha!

Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson.

The first Apple product aka iGadget I owned was the first generation 512MB iPod Shuffle. Twas quickly replaced by the first generation 2GB iPod Nano which unfortunately got pick-pocketed while I was walking around the grounds of the UPLB Feb Fair. I waited for a bit before I got hold of a new iPod and after two months worth of allowance plus the money I earned from cleaning gardens and washing our car, I finally got hold of a 160GB iPod Classic in Black. Me and the iPod Classic spent a good three years together until it finally gave up on me. I was devastated because that's 160GB worth of my artistic life, but the thought of me getting an updated or more advance iPod helped me move on and start saving up for it. I got my fourth iGadget, a fourth generation 32GB iPod Touch, March of this year and I instantly fell in love with the iOS. It's simple yet very functional. It's a no-fuss thing, really. I fell in love with the iOS so much that after around three months, I decided to sell my iPod Touch and get an iPhone 4. And I lived happily ever after. Lol. 

Steve Job's passing was a momentous event and I think I need not write about it here. As an Apple device user, I deem it necessary to pay my respect to the man who has helped sculpt today's technology. And so, I purchased my sixth "iGadget", the book Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson.

I'm gonna start reading it this afternoon after I finish my paper for a subject (which is actually due next week, but I'm quite pumped up to do it now). Luckily, I got one of the only two copies in National Bookstore (SM City Calamba branch) for PhP 1275.00.

Yes, I sacrificed a week's worth of stickers for this. Lol.
