Dear Saint Nick,

These are just a few things that I want for Christmas. First, I would like a PlayStation5 so I can play it. Next,a new Fortnite skin, so I look cool. Then, I would really like some more Fortnite V-Bucks to get some more stuff. Lastly, I want a hedgehog. In conclusion, these are a few things I would like for Christmas.         

P.S. Do you make Teslas?

From,

Koen 

 

Dear Santa
