Dear Santa,

I think I have been a really good boy this year, that is why I should get lots of presents this year so get your little helpers my make me these things, ok?

So here is what I want

I would really like a new laptop because I dropped it last year and it has got a really big dent in the side of it and I am also in the in inquiry class next year at boys college and I would like you use my laptop in it. 

Now what I want is an iPhone 5S because I lost my other phone the other day and I really want a new one so I can text my mum, dad and my friends.  

I would also really want new running shoes for Christmas because the ones I have now are too small for me and they hurt my feet and I am really sport and need some shoes to run in.

The last thing I would like is a $1000 because I want to buy my friends presents.
