Walk through the first floor of Tomson Hall and you can’t miss it β the Holiday Wish Tree, aglow with lights and adorned with tiny slips of colored paper on curling ribbons. Ever since the tree appeared right around Christmas Fest, the ‘wish slips’ have continued to leap out of their box alongside the tree to its branches, wishes of all types scrawled across them.
As the instructions state, hanging your holiday wish on the tree is quite simple:
Wishes already hanging range from the globally conscious:
To the typical “Santa Letter” request:
To the blunt, the religious, and the common Freshman wish:
They also come from the hopeless romantic:
The ring-before-spring-ers:
To the silly (or selfish?):
The idealistic…and often realistic:
To hopes for the future:
It’s not too late to head over to the Wish Tree and hope for a little holiday magic of your own! It also could prove a very nice break from finals-studying…
Happy Holidays from all the Her Campus St. Olaf staff!
