1. Dance related stuff; ballet shoes, skirts, warm-ups, a bag, pictures......

2. Christmas cards. E-mail, snail mail (if you already know my adress), fill up that mailbox :) or, lots of comments to this post. That would make me very, very happy ^_^ (e-mail: bufsina8302@hotmail.com. I'd love to hear from you)

3. I Love Lucy things. episodes on DVD, t-shirts, cell phone cover, etc....

4. Paid LJ account!!! :D

5. Books. Read a book you might think I would like, recommend it and I'll see if I can find it. I'm a big fan of the Harry Potter series, but I have still not read LotR :/. Love The Hitchhikers Guide To the Galaxy and Jane Eyre though. Also like The Vampire Chronicles.

6. Meeting some of those on my friends list I know don't live far away sometime after Christmas :)

7. Art Deco style jewelry

8. a corset (real one) and a long black velvet or silk skirt

9. Live Aid on DVD + Queen and David Bowie things. (cds, DVDs, icons, background pictures, text; you decide stenciles etc...)

10. Art supply (pencils, sketch books, paint brushes, paint....)
or, draw me a picture! something creative :)

Happy holidays to everyone!

If you could grant some of these wishes, I would be so happy :)

Book recs I can do :) (Hitchhiker fan yey! *g*)

Have you read anything by Terry Pratchett? If not you totally should. To get started, read Good Omens (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0441003257/qid=1103579761/sr=2-1/ref=pd_ka_b_2_1/102-2952275-7219322) by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. It's brilliant :)

Hmm. If you like Jane Eyre then Maybe Jasper Fforde's The Eyre Affair (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0142001805/qid=1103579674/sr=8-1/ref=pd_csp_1/102-2952275-7219322?v=glance&s=books&n=507846) would be something for you.

And just because everyone should read it: Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. It's possibly my favourite book ever - the language alone is just amazing. :)

thank you! :D I'm going to borrow Lolita at the library tomorrow, couldn't find The Eyre Affair. Have to look some more then.
Thans again :D

I second the Jane Eyre Affair. It's brilliant.

can you tell me a little bit more about the book?

Merry Christmas!

It's a cross between fantasy and a mystery. Thursday Next is a literary detective in SpecOps. The year is 1985 but not our 1985. Britain is still at war with Russian (not URSS) in Crimea for the last 100 years. People are fanatical about books and characters and art. Some people can stop time, Chrono guards (Thursday's dad is one of them). It's whimsy, it's funny, it's deep. I loved it. You can check out Jasper Fforde's site here

If you like Harry Potter, you might like some of Lloyd Alexander's books. They're meant for kids, but I still enjoy them now. You might also try Kenneth Oppel's trilogy about bats (starting with Silverwing).

thank you, I'll look for them :)
Merry Christmas!
