The last blog before Christmas!! Thank you so much for following the December series so far! We’re now in episode 7 sharing part two of the ideal Christmas gift. At the end of the blog, there’ll be a link to the part one episode. I loved hearing what people consider their preferred Christmas gift to be and I hope you have fun reading this as well:

C: Bonjour! 

Chimere: Hi

C: ça va?

Chimere: wait, wait, wait- 

-Laughs-

Chimere: I don’t speak French!

 C: Just kidding; what’s your ideal Christmas gift?

Chimere:

I would want to get a new car. I’ve had my car for the past 5 – 7 years and it’s breaking down a little, so if I had to choose, it would probably be a new car. 

C: That’s a good one. What kind of car would you want? 

Chimere:

Probably a Tesla. Teslas are pretty affordable now and I think it’d be a good switch to have a hybrid or electric vehicle.

  

Dara:

I’ve been reading a lot recently so I think a Kindle would be a nice gift for me. I will always appreciate perfume as well. My airpods recently broke, so maybe airpods too.

  

Justin:

A 2009 Wii video game; the Madden wii game. 

 

Karyn:

 A spa day (a facial, massage etc.)

  

Harrison:

A pair of shoes, coat or kitchen appliance I wouldn’t buy for myself.

 

Tolu:

I want a knife set. I really like to cook and I feel like a really crisp knife slicing through my vegetable would elevate the experience, you know? I just got a new cutting board so I feel like I need a knife to match it, ideally I want some gold personalized ones. Any restaurant grade knife would really make my heart happy.

Tanya: 

It would not be entirely materialistic, but the thought put into the materialistic things I want; so stalk my Pinterest if you love me; I’d want all the Sephora brands that just feel like luxury and fun, cool girl stuff: the Charlotte Tilbury spray, a lot of elf dupes for things I like; the Dior lip gloss and the blush, anything from FENTY, and the Rare Beauty blush. Self-care products too: masks, the Kiehls mask, Paula’s Choice. I also like clothes, but I’m looking into basics now, so if you got me cute sweaters from Abercrombie; I’m also trying to get more feminine clothes, so pinks, beiges, and jewelry that you think would look pretty on me, means a lot to me – so lockets are good, rings. Also, heartfelt gifts, so if you write me a letter, that would be very cute.

 

Matthew:

Socks.

 

Marvellous:

Can’t go wrong with books.

 

Michaela:

To be at home with my family.

 

Pascalyn:

Probably sending someone a folder of all the pictures I’ve taken of them and then writing a note in each picture -  

Valentina: She means the Christmas gift that YOU would like! 

Pascalyn: For myself? 

-Laughs-

 I thought it was for someone else?

C: no worries I’d add this too !!

Pascalyn:

(continues) the note will say how much I appreciate them and what value they’ve had in my life and also how much they’ve grown from the first picture I took of them to the current one; giving them something valuable. Yeah, like for someone that likes to write, I could give them a really good pen or notebook. That would be my ideal Christmas gift to someone. 

C: Aww. What about an ideal Christmas gift for you?

 Pascalyn:

For me, just prayers would be great and more than enough for me. Thank you!

 

Chukwuma:

My ideal Christmas gift would be most likely a destination trip with those that are hold dear. I’ll give two answers – a destination trip, one grandiose, one more on the minute. A destination trip to somewhere warm and tropical or somewhere scenic, whether its snowboarding in the alps, or Maldives, or Bahamas trip, nice and warm, with people that I hold dear to my heart. A more minute one would be a sentimental gift; something just to show the person that they’ve listened and that is held dear to them.
