I guess this will be a continuing Christmas list, I first started it in 2010 but discovered most of the things I wanted were still on this list. I crossed out what I received or just bought on my own. Of course I want an iPad, smartphone, and a new car, but these are slightly more reasonable gifts to ask for.
