Dear Santa
It's been a while since I last wrote to you. I hope your address hasn't changed because I really need you to read this letter.
I trust your super powers and your ability to decipher between who's been naughty and who's been nice. Just so we're on the same page, I'd like you to know that I've been extremely nice, just ask the old lady who I helped cross the street or that mosquito that wouldn't let me sleep on Thursday night who's life I decided to spare.
Now Santa, I haven't asked you for anything for over a decade so I sincerely hope that I've accumulated some points here. Now I know that this letter may be a bit early but it's just that I don't want any excuses come christmas. I want my gifts, Santa, no pressure.
Since there's this rumour going around about 12 days of Christmas I've decided on a gift a day, so please Santa, make it happen.
On the 12th day of Christmas I would like an iPad and a new cellphone for my little brother so he can stop asking me for one.
On the 11th day of Christmas I would like breakfast with Khanyi Dhlomo, lunch with Trevor Manuel, supper with Chris Gardner and ice cream with Oprah in between.
On the 10th day of Christmas I would like you to drop a degree on my lap. I'll use it wisely, I promise.
On the 9th day of Christmas I would like success. Lots and lots of it. I'm sure you know how much I fear failure.
On the 8th day of Christmas I would like for you to help me find a new church family here. I'm feeling slightly spiritually starved.
On the 7th day of Christmas I would like strength to help me get over the 21st of May 2011, the accident and the family members I lost that day. May their souls rest in piece.
On the 6th day of Christmas I would like a getaway. No wait, make that a boat cruise with all of my friends.
On the 5th day of Christmas I would like you to finish off my car instalments then throw in a BMW 125i while you're at it;)
On the 4th day of Christmas I would like for you to instill in me a love for sports so I too can partake in corridor conversations at work.
On the 3rd day of Christmas...well you see there's this thing at work called a raise...
On the 2nd day of Christmas I would like you to fill me up with gratitude because I'm going to require a lot of it to thank you for gifts 12 to 3.
On the 1st day of Christmas...ok, let's just clarify here is the 1st day the 25th of December? Ok, let's assume it is.
On the first day I would like Ty Pennington and his team from "Extreme Makeover Home Edition" to come to my parents house and give it a make over and whisk the family and I away to some resort while they do so.
I know this will be so easy for a big guy like yourself. I don't have a chimney but just PING me when all my things are ready.
P.S please find BBM pin on the back of the envelope
With love,
Zee
