The Creative aka Weird Birthday Gift

This gift deserves a post of its own simply because it still leave me feeling puzzled and amused everytime I look at it.


And because it somehow manages to put a smile on my face everytime I look at it, it now sits strangely out of place on my 'new work desk'.



Umm... thanks Mr IdunTalkMuch!

An Itch You Can't Scratch...

IS ANNOYING!!

>__<

I fought the sore. I killed the fever. I’m preventing the cough but an itchy throat is just too annoying. *clears throat* More so during the night than day. And the phlegm is another unhelpful culprit . Maybe I should sleep upright tonight, since laying down seems to worsen things up. *clears throat* I just feel the need to keep getting up from bed to spit ‘nothing’. Nothing because nothing is coming out except saliva. Eeeeww… *clears throat* *pouts* *cough* Blergh.


It’s just sad that I’m not even looking forward to go to bed. :(

When was the last time you reward yourself?

Whether it's splurging on a fancy handbag, buying that dress you have always wanted or... well, to be fair to the guys, getting the latest camera, iPhone or whatever gadgets out there. The list is endless and not necessarily confined to... well, shopping. *shrugs* You can go travel! Okay, that involves lots of money too. You can sit back and relax at home. That's a reward itself, depending on how you look at it.


Or sometimes you can get yourself a birthday gift. :D

And it doesn't have to be expensive. It can be but doesn't have to be.


RM24.90


That's all it takes and you get to upgrade this

THIS!


And amazingly turned dish-drying-tray-turned-computer-table to a CD rack holder.
Am I amazing or am I amazing?

Almost No.1


Stepped into the office on Thursday morning and not long after received my 'first' birthday present for the year.

So, why 'first' with the quotation marks?

Well, I kinda received my first birthday present way back during Chinese New Year because the gifter had thoughtfully bought me something to keep me warm during my trip to London in March. The thoughtful gifter was none other than dearest godmom! *hearts*
Thanks kai-ma!

So unfortunately the above present was deemed 'second' place without a fair fight.


But.

BUT!


That's not the point of this story.
The crucial point to this entire post is WHO came in second place?


*drumroll*


Mr Skimmer Dude!


Oh golly, the sky must be falling. Hahaha. The gift got everyone ranting "How come he give you present one?" because Mr Skimmer Dude is not your usual present-gifter. In fact, he claims that we are just his 'colleagues' and not 'friends'. Yaya. *rolls eyes* Dude is so in denial. So anyway... "How come ah?"


Well, I guess I should say it's tradition. :P


Though honestly, seeing his gift then and now, I came to another conclusion as to why I receive gifts from him.


Obviously he thinks I'm a kid.

Rubik's Cube two years ago and a Slinky this year. What's more, *points to the lower right hand corner of the box* apparently I'm growing younger and younger. Ages 3 & up!


Here's the Rubik's Cube.



From 7, I'm now down to 3.
Will I be receiving a pacifier next? O_O


Hmm... Oh well.


A gift is a gift however small.

Thanks Mr Skimmer Dude!
