Hi!!!!! Seasons greetings from your Secret Santa! I hope you've had a wonderful day so far.
I took a look at your blog, and I see you have an etsy store and you make bracelets. That's awesome! I've been trying make a supply of things to possibly start an etsy store too. How long have you been selling on there?
I also see you have grunge band bracelets that you make and sell. I love that era of music. My favorites are Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains. What are your favorite grunge era bands?
I think this Secret Santa thing is such a good idea, and I'm looking forward to getting to know you more throughout this month.
I will be checking in soon! 🎄
Hello!! Oh my, what a lovely first message, thank you so much for this! I’m well, and I hope you are, too!
I’ve been on Etsy two, going on three, years now! I would definitely recommend it if you want to give it a shot. It can be a great learning curve. My biggest advice would be to simply try things until you find ‘your thing’, and to have patience.
Awesome!! PJ and AIC are absolutely fantastic and in my top bands of all time, as well! I have a difficult time choosing my top-favorites of anything; but for the grunge bands? I adore AIC, and Nirvana holds a special place in my heart for nostalgia reasons. Soundgarden has an amazing discography, and I think they sometimes get overlooked.
It really is! I love the idea, too. Thanks again for the lovely message, and I hope your weekend goes well!
Until next time!

Ho-ho-ho! And here is Christmas and I was your Santa who identified himself as "🎄❤️"
How was your Christmas? what did you get as a gift? wow, lottery and pinata sounds cool! and what does the lottery mean? in my country, it is considered a good sign to meet a chimney sweep lol, we decorate houses with these figurines and bake piparkook cookies. our winter is different, but usually small frosts and still more often a small minus temperature. Wow, Pan dulce and tamales sounds interesting! is it a national dish? I wish you a Merry Christmas and thank you for this wonderful month! I really enjoyed being your Santa! and my cat wants it too congratulations to you! ❤️🎅🏻✨

Hi!!! So happy to finally see you, meet you (?) xD. No, thank YOU!!!, I really liked your messages, this activity was so fun. Aww that's a beautiful cat!!!!! UwU
Lotería is just a game. It doesn't really mean anything, as far as I know. Once you start to play it, you forget you have a brother, a mother, an uncle, even a grandpa, if your goal is to win!!! (Just kidding).
Your playing card must be 4x4 with the pictures at random (because all the pictures are numbered). You can win by making a line of four like this: | — \ /. If everyone agrees, you can play and win by making a square in the middle, an X, or 7 (just 7 pictures on your playing card).
What do you win? Whatever you want to put as prizes. In my family, we wrap the prizes, so it's a surprise when you choose them. It can be chocolate, a scarf, gloves, spoons...
The pictures are really pretty. Some of my favorite are these ones:

My Christmas dinner at my home was fine, turkey, pasta... At my grandma's we played lotería, ate tamales, pizza, a lot of food.
Chimney sweep? That's awesome. Ohh, your winter sounds very nice 💓.
Yes, those are national dishes. The first picture is tamales (can be made from pork, beans, chicken, sugar...) and the second picture are some varieties of pan dulce (each bread has its name).

ho ho ho, classic rock fans! Christmas is coming and so is The Secret Rocker Santa project! if you are looking for an opportunity to make new friends who love classic rock, or just want to make someone happy, this is your chance!
** if you don’t want to see posts about this anymore: filter the tags #secret rocker santa and/or #srs24 — click here for an explanation of how to filter tags **
Tumblr media
What is Secret Rocker Santa?
Secret Rocker Santa is a tumblr-wide “match-maker” in which you will anonymously send asks to (and hopefully befriend!) a tumblr user who is assigned to you. you will also be assigned to someone else, who will send anonymous asks to you. the event will run from december 1st through december 25th. while this might seem complicated, it’s actually quite simple, and you will only need to answer a minimum of two questions to sign up.
How it works:
you must read these instructions!
the deadline to sign up is november 28th. there are two ways that you can sign up: the first option is to sign up via google forms. the second option is to send me a submission (or an ask) with your completed questionnaire (found here). while the first two questions are required, you can otherwise provide as much or as little information as you want.
please reblog this post! (this isn’t a strict requirement, but it would be greatly appreciated and helps to ensure that enough people will participate!)
your ask box must be open to anyone! this means that anon asks will have to be enabled. if you want, you can wait until the first day of the project (december 1st) to change this setting, but please make sure you remember!
your blog doesn’t have to be classic rock-related, you just need to be a fan. (we will also be using a very broad definition of “classic rock,” so nearly any music from 1950s-1990s counts.)
(those are the main things you need to know, but more details + some helpful tips are below the cut!!)
shortly after signing up you will be assigned a number — you probably won't need it for anything, but it's a backup way for me to keep track of who is who in case we run into any problems :)
during the last days of november, i will be assigning people to their Secret Rocker Santas. you will receive a message from me telling you who you have been assigned to, either in the form of an ask or direct message.
you will start messaging the person assigned to you ANONYMOUSLY on the 1st of december and continue until Christmas (december 25th), which is when you will reveal your identity and (hopefully) have made a new friend!
you can send your partner whatever you want (as long as you do not reveal your identity). your job is to make your partner feel happier! (some ideas: send lyrics, pictures, or facts; play games, chat, and of course do things that are not only associated with classic rock).
be careful - make sure you are messaging your assigned partner anonymously.
please tag messages that you receive from your secret santa and any other related posts as #SRS24, so your santa will be able to find your answers more easily.
EXTRA REMINDERS:
some people might get more than one santa or will be assigned to more than one person, depending on how many people participate and how many suitable matches i have for certain people. if you are certain you will not be able to be a secret santa for two people, please mention this when you submit your form (you can also let me know if you would prefer to be a santa for two or more people! anyone who volunteers for this will get first pick if the need arises)
if you’re not committed to sending asks to your partner and/or responding to your santa at least a few (2-3) times a week, please do not sign up.
while the primary focus of this project is classic rock, any additional interests you list may be used as a secondary way of helping to find a good match for you. with that in mind, don’t hesitate to list any interests and hobbies you might have, whether they relate to classic rock or not! this will especially come in handy if there are many applicants who like a particular band, or if i am having trouble finding a match for you based on your favorite bands.
if your santa has not contacted you in over a week, message me and i will gently remind them or find you another one.
as a general rule, be nice! anyone who is rude to the another participant will be removed from the project.
make sure to answer all of your santa’s messages! you don’t have to answer right away, but don’t ignore them.
please let me know if you experience any problems at all (for example, if i have made a mistake, or you are having problems with either your own santa or the person you are assigned to)
if you are not already following your partner’s blog, you probably shouldn’t do it right away, because they might guess that you are their santa.
it’s useful to have an easy-to-find “about me” page or pinned post so that your santa will have a better chance of finding something to talk to you about!
please try to keep a note of who you’ve been assigned to, as well as your assigned number!
IF YOU CHANGE YOUR URL AT ANY TIME DURING THE PROJECT PLEASE LET ME KNOW. if you don’t let me know about your new URL (or otherwise make it clear that you have moved), i will not be able to assign matches for you.
please be patient! i will assign matches and answer questions as quickly as possible, but please keep in mind that i have other responsibilities too!
you don’t need to be following me, but i will be sharing updates here, so it would be a good idea to at least keep an eye on that page/tag.
please don’t hesitate to participate! this is supposed to be a fun, lighthearted, seasonal activity, and if you do encounter any issues, i will help you :)
ALL RELEVANT LINKS:
google forms sign-up
copy the questionnaire here (to sign up if you don't wish to use google forms)
paste questionnaire, fill out, and submit here
FAQ page
all future updates will be posted in this tag!
lastly, if you have any questions or want to ask for advice, do not hesitate to message me or send an ask!
please spread the word if possible! :)

What music are you listening to these days?
🎅
😁
I listen to Queen, Billie Eilish and lady gaga a lot these days...
And bcs of Rosekiller, I listen to Toxic by Britney Spears and 10 things I hate about you on repeat.
Overall, I love classic rock and a lil bit of metal (Sabaton, which is like, metal songs abt history, for ex. Lady of the dark or Coat of arms)

I like the new Avatar series. It’s a little disconcerting that they accelerated some plot lines and changed some things, and episode 4 definitely felt rushed, but that’s hardly surprising given the change in medium and the enormous amount of money it takes to produce something like this.
The cast is amazing, the scenery and costumes are fantastic, the CGI is pretty damn good, and I love that they brought in fan favs like the secret tunnel song and the cabbage man. They’d better get Toph right next season because her character is crucial, not just to further the plot but for disability representation and because Toph is freaking awesome and a total boss.
My son wants The Rock to play The Boulder, which would be pretty hilarious tbh. He’d probably love to do it, too. It’d be right up his alley since he was a professional wrestler.
I recognized A Martinez just by his voice before I even saw his face. I love that he’s in this and in Dark Winds, which is absolutely brilliant and I long for more seasons of that. For some reason his presence makes me feel less old, although you’d think it would be the opposite at this point.

A VERY late secret Santa gift for a friend of their Tiger Rock character from the theme park Chessington World Of Adventures. Absolutely loved the character design and had to pick her.
-
She'd definitely be water ride buddies with Flume for real.
-
Used a combination of coloured pencils and digital colouring for this one as i didn't have certain colours like the muted orange (working on broadening my coloured pencil collection and markers so i shall have more colours soon) but i am happy with how she turned out.
I am technically not classing this as my first 2024 piece of art as it technically should have been completed in December but it was such a busy month for me that i didn't have time to start it.
