Wrapped wishes

---

The season of giving is upon us, but here at the Current we cant help but indulge in a little selfishness and ask, What do we really want for the holidays? To get some ideas, we scoured the campus and got responses that ranged from the wild and wacky to the more simple and mundane. So dont be shy. Ask yourself what you wantyou might just get it. Happy holidays!
