What do YOU want for Christmas?

I’ve already been asked a couple times what I wanted this year for Christmas and I haven’t had the faintest idea what to answer. It’s the first time that this happens to me I think! Ha ha. I figured, since I have started working, what I need the most is good music. So my list has a LOT of music… and i might add some more in the coming days!

Music:

  • Sebastien Roux et Greg Davis: Paquet Surprise
  • Amon Tobin: Supermodified
  • Amon Tobin: Foley Room (w/ DVD)
  • Four Tet: Pause
  • Sufjan Stevens: Enjoy Your Rabbit
  • Sufjan Stevens: Sevenswans
  • Caribou: Andorra
  • Erin McKeown: Distillation
  • Erin McKeown: Monday Morning Cold
  • Erin McKeown: Lafayette
  • Iron and Wine: The Shepherd’s Dog

Books

  • Noam Chomsky – Syntactic Structures

Games:

  • FIFA Soccer 08 (45$)
  • Manette de Jeux xbox wireless (65-70$)
  • Call of Duty 4 (50$)
  • Crysis (50$)
  • Myst V: End of Ages, 2005 (?)
  • Space Quest Compilation (20$)
  • Police Quest Compilation (17$)

Accessories:

  • Tripod, a high one… I already have a short one! For example check VELBON CX540 DLX PHOTO/VIDEO TRIPO [about 60$]
  • Business Card Holder (see there for a good example: www.staples.ca) [about 20$]
  • Apple iPod Mini Docking Station (click here for a cheap one on amazon) [about 20$]
    It could also be one that is universal, but you have to make sure that it works with the iPod Mini from 2 years ago… I would prefer one that is universal to new iPods too obviously, in case I get a new one eventually. :)
  • Headphones with microphone, for games, voice recognition, chat, etc. (Look on amazon.com for an example) [about 70$]
    I basically want to have some features like noise cancellation in the microphone. I could get away with a cheaper version maybe… i’d really like a good microphone. Maybe a volumen control on the cord too.

Cavalcades of Light – Nathan Phillips Square

Cavalcade of Lights 2007 from the condo

Apparently, they will be having this outdoor festival every Saturday night in December at Nathan Phillips Square. We had the opportunity to have front row seats for the 10 minutes long fireworks show yesterday night. Fun, fun! I still think that it would be more fun to be there in person, and so we may end up going next Saturday. However, it’s nice to know that, if it’s -20 degrees outside, we have the possibility to watch it from up here!

The line-up for next week is somewhat promising too:
