My antithesis to everyone's wish lists

So here's a list of what not to get me this christmas:

1. DVDs. More often than not, I already have them. And if you really don't know me that well, chances are, you're just gonna give me something I might not really like.

2. scented candles.  I'm not a candle person and i feel like it's a waste of money if i don't end up using them anyways. They'll probably just gather dust in my room.

3. GCs (gift certificates). It's the same as saying "I'm too lazy to find you a gift"

4. a random shirt from a midnight tiangge. shirts are fine except that they could be: 
         1. not really my type. 
         2. not in the color i want 
         3. too big (people just assume sizes all the time)
         4. would have prints worse than Japanese signs

5. CDs. I no longer have a cd player and it's quite a hassle to listen to it using the PCs dvd-rom (i'm lazy that way). And plus, I might already have access to that album via Limewire, lastfm or imeem. Heck, it might even be in my iPod already.

6. belts. Not really a belt person unless my pants are 2 sizes up and i absolutely need to fasten it to my waist for security purposes.

7. keychains/key rings. The only keys i have are of my office lockers which is already have on my office ID so I don't think this is necessary. 

8. hair accessories (especially headbands). Headbands squeeze my brain. Clips/hair pins are too vain for me.

9. figurines/tiny whatnots.  see #2.

10. stufffed toys. waste of money, gathers too much dust.

11. imitation flipflops. C'mon HAVIONIS or HAVANA don't really feel the same.

12. dangling earrings. Not into dangly things.. a simple stud is better, or a replacement barbel for my helix/top ear piercing.

13. face towel. What do you use it for, really? unless I'm sick and need a sponge bath and plus, my mom has enough supply to cover me.

14. PJs. Just because the cold weather we're experiencing now is momentary. Try nyo mag-PJs sa summer.

15. undergarments. I swear I've gotten some from relatives and they end up being too big or too snug and just not right. It's really a no-no to assume I'm still a 32a. C'MON.

16. hankerchief. I have enough of this, half I don't even use because good 'ol kleenex in my bag works just fine. I also have a knack for baby wipes now so I don't have to run to the bathroom to wash my hands after eating (let's say) chips or chocolates.


I probably have more but I'll shut up now in case you change your mind about getting me anything at all. haha. Merry Christmas everyone!
