Number Four: It's That Time of the Year

So Christmas is coming.

I'm such a crap present buyer. Every year I try to do personalised gifts for close friends, but they never really work. I've already sent out a hoard of cards to people. I feel very obligated to send people cards. I usually do like 50 each year, all with "Merry Christmas. Love Meg" on them, and just throw them at people when we were at school. But this year I've only done 25, 1) because I don't have many people's addresses, and 2) because I just wanted to do personal messages this year. If you have received one of my cards, you are very special to me. And if you didn't, well, then you're still special to me and must understand that it is physically impossibe to write thousands of personalised cards in a short space of time. Plus, I don't have enough money for stamps.

So what do I want for Christmas? All I've wanted for the past few months is money from my parents for a Macbook. I was hoping I'd be able to pay for part of it, but my funds seem to be trickling away (more like flooding over the dam). However, there are already three presents under the tree for me... What... The?... I specifically asked my parents for nothing else. I heard Mum talk about a hair straightener, which I really don't need, but I have a feeling is residing under the tree...

I'll keep you updated on what I find out.
