The Realistic Birthday Wishlist

I realized that next week is my birthday. While the thought of it bring all kinds of both necessary and unnecessary emotions, I decided to divert my thoughts into having a realistic wish list instead. Realistic, because it's a list of possible gifts that my family and friends might think that it's okay to buy for me since I will be using/reading/needing them anyway and not just use the birthday pass to get it. Okay fine, I'm using the birthday pass. I know it’s awkward to post any kind of wishlist (unless it's world peace, equality, prosperity and Miss Universe-ish stuff statements) during this time of the year especially with what happened to our country, but please allow me to at least fantasize about this list since they are harmless wishes anyway.

You might be thinking I would love to get big ticket items such as my own townhouse, SUV, gadget, a trip to U.K., etc. but those stuff are actually reserved for my vision board.

So, without further ado, and in random order, here are the 5 things I would love to get: 

1. A Trodat Stamp (with my name on it).

I fantasize to have this in pink of purple and I will use it for the books that I got from Book sales. It makes me think I have a "personal library" with this stamp. Throw in ink refill and instructions how to DIY refill it too.

2. Either The Secret sequel books from  Rhonda Byrne...

Because I already have "The Secret" four years ago, these two would be a good addition. Plus, these are what I also consider "mental investment".

or the Archie Married Life Series Comic Books!

I have always loved Archie series but they've gotten so darn expensive! I miss reading comic books and Archie Series is one of the comic books that I miss reading. I wonder what the story line is now that it's about married life and no longer Riverdale High.

3. Pink stilettos tape dispenser (available at National Bookstore)

I already saw it last year , thought twice and did not get it. But because I am obsessed with wrapping books (even second hand ones that I got in Booksale) this dispenser, would be great too! If you don't mind, kindly throw in some magic tape refill too!

4. Personalized name tags for USB, and oh, another 32GB USB would be great too!

I still have the wood, ethnic-designed, personalized USB name tag that my co-supervisor gave me when she went to Bukidnon. I realized that I need these not just out of a whim but for work purposes too since I like to label my stuff.

5. 5-pc car mat that I've been itching to get since last year. I would love to get it in pink, para ang kire-kire lang.

I can actually see the expression of my guy friends when they see this. It all started when I saw the car mat of one of my guy friends' car and I've been on the look out for something like it until it has been more than a year! I don't know why I can never find the time to get exactly like the one that I saw. One time we were so decided to get one, the store that supposed to carry it was closed for the holiday (local elections).

 Anyway, those are the top five of my list. Do you also have a realistic wishlist?
