Let’s Shop Online and Buy Late Gifts

After Christmas Day, I suddenly remembered that I forgot someone in my Christmas list. Yes, it is terrible when the person you forgot send you a text message asking you where their gift was. With all the hustle and bustle of the Christmas Season, it is likely that you will forget someone. However, it is not too late to give a post-Christmas gift for those people that you had forgotten. And one way to but their easily is to buy online. So, I browse on online shops and chose the gift that I could give that person. Aside from looking for the gift that I need, I also browsed some things that I need to buy, like some commercial couches.

I also remembered a neighbor who has a local retail shop in our subdivision. His shop has lots of products for sale like snacks, candies, spices, kitchen items, fruits, vegetables and other items. I had noticed that her fruit display cabinet is already falling apart. I guess it would be best if I suggest to him the 3 tiered wrought iron fruit stand that I found on an online shop.

Also, my mother is planning to replace the table located at the front yard of our house. The old wooden table couldn’t stand a chance against the elements like the sun and rain. Browsing on the online shops, I found this console marble tables that will look good in the front yard. The marble table can withstand the elements.

So there! You see the good things that I found just browsing on online shops? Shopping there is easy and hassle free. And what gift did I find for my “forgotten” friend? That’s a very cute cup.

Bluedreamer’s Surprise: Capiz Shell Box

Finally, I received Bluedreamer’s gift for his Blog Idol Contest.

Though, I was a poor contestant, I still managed to get this gift:
.
Yeah…it is in a box with a bubble wrap.

When I opened it…voila!
.

Yeah! This is a jewelry box made from capiz shells. I don’t know if this box is made in the province of Capiz.

I opened the capiz jewelry box…
.

And I found that it is well-made. The quality of the capiz shell box shines.

Thank you Bluedreamer for this gift of yours. My little sister is truly pleased. ^_^

I also enjoyed popping the bubble wrap. :-P

Marvin the Martian Meets Cherry Blossoms

The good thing about having friends is that they can throw you some surprises. I was indeed surprised when two of my far-away friends gave me unexpected gifts for even if there is no special occasion.

Cherry Blossoms


I am glad to receive a letter from my friend in Japan. He is my classmate in one of my subjects during my first year in the University of the Philippines. Apparently, he remembered me as the very first person who talked to him when he came to the university. He is an Ifugao and came from the Mountain Province. I never met him again after the end of my freshman years.
.
This is another addition to my collection of personal mementos.

So, I much surprised to receive a letter from him and some petals of Sakura Blossoms. Very nice! I am yet to reach Japan but I already touched the flowers that are famous in animes.

And this Time Its Marvin


I was also surprised last week when a large package came to my home. To my surprise it is a very big Marvin the Martian pillow.
.
He points a gun at me while I sleep. Bad Marvin!

Marvin the Martian is my favorite Looney Tunes character and I am so glad to receive this kind of surprise gift. My friend gave me this as a treat for my friend’s first salary. Because I am so glad, I have changed my Facebook profile picture into this image of Marvin the Martian.
.
 I am very angry. ^_^
