I know this is a little early, but I'm completely self-indulgent when it comes to my date of birth and was never able to help it. So I'll just keep honoring said fact. These are the required material things:
  
    - ✔ Manhattan Portage "Dana's Messenger Bag" (brown/orange) 
 
    - ✔ Lucky Brand "Crossbody Convertible Bag" (bourbon) 
 
    - ✔ iPhone 4 
 
    - ✔ white earbuds that sound better than Apple's (however they must still be white. I am very stringent with this.) 
 
    - good speakers for my future dorm room 
 
    - Think Coffee/Dunkin Donuts gift cards 
 
    - Barnes & Noble gift certificates 
 
    - a really good back massage/entire spa day somewhere in the city 
 
    - full car detailing for Bruce, or pre-paid car washes at Commack Hand Wash 
 
    - new sunglasses, if I fail to find my biddy-esque Marc Jacobs ones anywhere... 
 
    - clothes for fall (not like I have any idea as to what...) 
 
    - a good camera with a warranty that will actually last me unlike the other 394875613 
 
    - guitar capo 
 
    - dark grey American Apparel sweatpants 
 
    - ✔ Toddy Cold Brew system 
 
    - "lettuce" 
 
    - cash cash cash 
 
  
  What I can't actually think of that others can are usually much, much more supported than what's above. However these are all somewhat mandatory because I am demanding. At least on August 22nd.
