Alright so here is what's happening. I know it's ahead but I always like to get things organized ahead of time.. you know, for a sense of security. Anyway next month there is a very important date for me. It's someone's birthday, and a little something else which is also very important. But the thing is.. this year is even more important than the last few. Last year's birthday gift was an XBOX 360, if some of you recall me making a thread about it last year. But now since this year is even more important, I need to think of one hell of a birthday gift. The thing is, it's a guy. And girls have the hardest time coming up with gifts for men. And no, I won't tolerate any sexual related ideas. Keep the ideas as G-rated as possible please. Anyway.. what's nicer than an XBOX 360.. and is somewhat expensive but purchasable (without credit card use). I'd get a car and all but yeah, that's way beyond my budget. Forget the PS3 since he's not a fan.. and we have almost every other system in existence. Complicated huh? I can't think of anything so maybe some of the more.. umm.. serious/mature members can help me conjure up some ideas. I hope you can help me out~ Thankies to whomever gives me serious answers. :3

Does he have a fear for hights? If not maybe a balloon flight might be a nice gift. It's adventurous and romantic at the same time and something to do with the 2 of you. Besides that, it's also possible to book rides with special cars: like oltimers or lambogini at a racing track?

Sounds nice, but I don't think we have a balloon flight thing around here, and who knows if it will rain on his birthday. What do you guys think of this idea?: Samus Aran Figurine

Use a part of this money to make something for him? even if you're not good at making things you did it with your love!

@xstefex: Hmm.. I guess there is some things I could make. Like custom T-shirts.. like that Star Fox emblem shirt he's been wanting. @Joshseow: Indeed. He's been eyeing it for a while now. ^^ That will just be one of the things though. :3

Well, if you know what he likes... Start: 1) Listing them out 2) Order them in - Which one he wants most - Which one is out of your budget - Proceed to consider if he wants to have many items he wants, or one item he REALLY wants (if this happens)

@Joshseow: It kinda hit me out of nowhere because we pretty much have all the games we want.. or systems.. but the I remembered the figurine he liked years back. That will be one of the things I get him. @xstefex: Whoa 4 days? Last minute shopping, wheeee :D My bf's birthday is in 1 month and 5 days.. but I like to sort things ahead of time.

Does he have a big music library?

@xie69: Lol I said G-rated. >.>' @xstefex: My bf loves my cakes. I'd certainly love to bake him one. ^^ @Dinkle: Yes indeedums. Though he keeps all his music stashed on his PSP that he uses as a MP3 when he goes out. Besides that he's always home.
