My very materialistic Wishlist

Borrowing the idea from wishlist, I am now making a list of things I really really want.
Affordability, requirement, availability and all be damned.
Oh, and this being the materialistic wish list, I am avoiding dil-ka sukoon,chain(hindi) happiness
and peace for the world, equality amongst all and the like,
which is actually what I would wish for. You know me.

Number one on the list is the very basic need of any individual, a makaan.(khudh ka where i wouldnt have kich kich of any owner not even my hubby :P in support of the owner always!! - dont mind hubby dear!)
And it has to meet our tiny list of specifications, this being the dream house The Dude(ofcourse none other than my hubby)
and I are together and all. So once we find a 3BHK, on the 17th floor or above of a really tall building,
which along with its brother buildings forms part of this fanatically-cool township,
with basic provisions like a pool, club house, gym valet parking facility etc, has a big living room,in fact 2 of them,a huge kitchen with all the modern necessities and a little more would do no harm :P
and a large balcony, preferably overlooking a lake or even the awesome city lights, with cool attached baths with of course the jacuzzi,a basement turned into walk-in wardrobe stairs from bedroom leading underneath
and is available within a year from now, when we think we can have enough cash to make a down payment,
at of course the price we have in mind, or rather, in our bank accounts, we'll take it. Simple wish really.
You would think one has to struggle so much for this?

Number two is something no one can have enough of. A vacation. A long break to somewhere exotic and awesome.
Please note that the level of exotic-ness of the location can vary between Goa and Tokyo to Paris to Sydney.
So there are in fact, quite a lot of choices really.

At number three we have a Sony Vaio. Red in colour and a good configuration. Or a Mac-book.
Never owned one for myself :(

At four is a new phone. Mine is right now a basic phone after having lost 3 high end mobiles :P still am a gadget freak,well this mobile that i've right now, has dropped to the ground so many times that even though its a LG, it can only bear so much. It hangs itself mosta times and i can't many a times hear the person on the other end - hehe good for me ;)
Yeah, and this time we are looking for a touch phone; an I Phone, an HTC touch or atleast the Nokia Express Music touch phone.Though i would love an Iphone.Let me tell you,I love the phone a lot though its a basic model since it was first joint possession and we both have similar pieces-well no difference at all...

Number five is a 72" LCD Plasma TV, Sony, or Samsung. Now this actually was to adorn our AV room in the new house, but since we already wished for that, we can go ahead and wish for the associated accessories as well I think.

Number six is a subscription to Cosmopolitan, Elle, and Femina women's era. Including the yummy gifts they offer on subscription.
Reason being, generally Magazine guy's gotten extremely bugging and ends up bringing all these magazines the month after which they are released. And so I end up reading "Fashions for summer" during the monsoons, and "How to make a dull winter morning bright" when the sun is blazing and almost burning my skin off. Not a nice feeling I tell you.

Number seven, is a set of speakers for the bedroom. So if I feel like listening to music while sleeping, it either has to waft through the other rooms, or has to be plugged into the ears. Both not ok. So.hmm the room ofcourse would be sound proof in the new house you see

At number eight, we need gift vouchers for all possible shopping malls and stores across the city.
Because the end of season sales are about to start. And why I say vouchers and not money is because,
while the end effect is the same, spending cash makes me feel very guilty, probably because it could be put to
better use or something (don't ask me what could be better than splurging all you want at a sale, but still)?
But with vouchers, you can't really do anything else can you? So, vouchers make much more sense really.Though some one asking me to go and buy anything i wish at their expense is welcome ;)

Number nine, since we are talking of vouchers, I wouldn't mind a few to some exotic spa kinda thing really.
And the reason here is similar, if not the same to the one above. See there, the issue is guilt,
I spend, and then I feel guilty. But here, it is plain thrift. I cannot bring myself to spend anything at any
of these parlors/spas etc. Anything they charge seems way to expensive and I end up not spending anything at all.
So while I am on a wishing spree, might as well wish for some vouchers which just have to be redeemed at these
otherwise ridiculously overpriced places.I would wish for something like the one at Ashoka or the Leela's

And that's about it - for now. I am a pretty content person
I think, that list actually took a lot of thinking after point 5 or so. I am happy with the way things are, really.
Although, I wish for there to be no traffic jam on the way home today. And that it rains.
But there should be no power-cut like today morn . And there should be no work tomorrow. And, that's all for now.

What? Those are small things, that doesn't prove anything. I am an extremely content person,
Thank-you-very-much. And before you form any more judgements, I am off. Ciao.
