Your Wish List

I wish I would get over this cold quickly.

Life, love, and happiness.

I want my husband to stay cancer-free. When those you love are facing serious health issues, everything else takes a backseat. I learned that lesson this year.

I want my debut eBook to do well. Yes, the money would be nice, but I'm concentrating more on building a fanbase for any future books I might write

To finish revising my first manuscript

To acquire an amazing agent who will work tirelessly to get that manuscript sold to a huge publishing house

For the economy to pick up, so those who are unemployed and want to work can find jobs

1. I want the first-ever CD by The Agonist. (Mum will order that for me online in time for Christmas. We have an arrangement, whereby she never knows what to get me, so I tell her things she can buy for me.)

2. I want to make it into the AW Spec Fic Anthology.

3. I want to survive this Uni subject without failing.

4. If anyone has a spare $540, I'd really like a Cort EVL-K4 electric guitar, and a 20W Peavey amplifier. (Though the amp will cost extra.) Hurry now - that $540 is a sale price of a saving of about $240!

5. I want a permanent job, so I can save up to move out of mum's house and finally get A) more room and B) independence.

I like wishing for things...

1.) to finish my Spanish course by the end of November

2.) to get a good score on the SAT test I took yesterday (aiming for a 500 in reading, 600 in writing and 700 in math)

3.) to get into college (there's a small school application program for the university I'm applying for and I'm supposed to find out the day I apply if I make it in... Early November is going to be stressful)

4.) to find some time that I'm NOT working on school stuff to write... (so far I'm not having much luck with that)

5.) um... to actually think of wishes that aren't school-related... xD

My wish list is almost identical to Alwaysinspired's list.

1. Same with my hubby: Diagnosed with incurable cancer 5 years ago, in remission for last 3 years. I wish it to stay that way.

2. I wish I would quit dithering and finish this ms.

3. I wish to craft and submit a successful query for it.

4. I wish for the economy to pick up and new jobs to be created. Folks around here are really suffering.

5. I wish to sell this house so we can downsize; this mortgage is taking almost half our net income now.

1.) for my son not to have to go to the middle east for round 2

2.) to regain my vision

3.) a new kidney without someone having to die to get it.

4.) for everyone to be home for Christmas, kids, grandkids, my husband.

5.) and for the raccoon not to snag the dill dip this year, what a mess that was.

There are so many things I could wish for. But much of it is obtainable through lots of hard work and a little bit of luck. I guess my wish list runs thus:

1) Mutual acceptance of each other's culture, flaws and perfections, all.
2) Basic decency and honesty for everyone -- no disruptive and negative office politics, scams, cons, crime, etc. Yes, this is idealistic, but I can dream and wish.
3) Mutual respect for all life.

Hehehe. Am I really that naive? No. But it is my wish list.

That's a big list. But an admirable one. May it all come true

I'd settle for a goth bar near where I live...

1 - To not have my usual Christmas/New Year bipolar event. Cos it sucks.

2 - To get back some confidence re writing. Wrapped in a purple bow perhaps.

3 - A pony.

A three book deal in every genre I write in.
Wish that all baked goods were actually calorie free (and taste great!)

I wish for:

My mother to get over the grief of my father's death and find a measure of happiness.
People to buy my book when it comes out next year (and like it please).
Enough financial success from my writing to retire from the day job as a technical writer. The writing life!
My children and husband's continued health.

My wish list is simple:

A happy, healthy husband and kids.
A happy, healthy extended family.
Happy, healthy friends.

Also, I want an elephant.

I got my hubby an elephant for his birthday once (well, I adopted one in his name at a zoo.) He was always asking for an elephant so I got him one. I had great fun telling him 'we have to go get your pressie.' 'Can't you get it posted?' 'nooo, not really....'

We went to see it. He was well chuffed.

Until it killed its keeper (possibly accidentally). I still say it was Old Man's fault.

1. A job.
