Birthday & Christmas List

First off, let me apologize for taking so long to post, I've been extremely busy with my studies and hardly have any time to myself.

I know that December is nearly two months away but I just couldn't resist making a visual wish list.  Being someone born a week before Christmas it is difficult for me not to go hog wild for shopping around this time.  When I was younger I would look through all the advertisement, especially the ones that came out Thanksgiving, for all the hottest deals and would circle them for my parents.  Not that they would notice.  Only letters to Santa helped me acquire what I wanted.

That being said, growing up I was never really spoiled but I never really asked for anything.  My mom would tell my me and my sister that since baby Jesus only received three gifts that we would too, plus a stocking stuffer.  Well just saying but Jesus got some pretty expensive gifts.  I got my yearly Barbies but now I have grown up.  I've still kept to making lists and circling what I want.  

Since I'm no longer a child I rarely do my own Christmas/Birthday shopping.  In years past I was just handed a sum of money before the event and told to buy whatever I wanted.  I still had to wrap up the "gifts" (or at the very least had my sister do it so it felt like a surprise) and wasn't allowed to open them until the specified day.  While it takes out the element of surprise, there is never any disappointment in what you are getting.  Luckily I received some more cash from my relatives so I was able to buy a few more things that I wanted.

The following are the items I'm really interested in.  Its not realistic for me to actually expect all of this stuff but possibly with some lower priced version of them.  Obviously a few of these items are more in my price range than others.   The Juicy Couture will be rather pricey and I'll have to scout for the best deal for it.  Knowing me, I'll probably be on the lookout for the best priced of all of these.
