This is how I spend my birthday... The Gifts!!

MY FAMILY...

1. MP4 Player

A gift from my mother and the 2 brothers.

It's a cool player with a small full color screen. I can play MTV inside, and store photos. Meanwhile, I'm just uploading more MP3s and also using the radio function. I'm still trying to figure out some other functions.

Overall, it looks so CoOOooL!!


All thanks to my lovely family...

2. A slipper pendant with chain [Australia]

A gift from Clarinda.

Not sure if it was meant to be for my birthday.. It was probably just a souvenir? Nevertheless, loved the slipper pendant to bits.

Joselyn and I was actually looking at all the slipper pendants wherever we go in Orchard yesterday. And none was as special and exquisite as this one given to me.

THANK YOU!!

3. A Hello Kitty HP strap [Japan]

4. A small OwL soft toy/paper weight [Japan]

Both items from Shuxia (da-sao) and probably my eldest brother too.

Hello Kitty was kawaii-neh! And the owl looks silly and funny. Both items were gotten from their recent Japan trip on 31 Oct to 6 Nov. This was probably another souvenir gift too. Tsk tsk..

THANK YOU!

MY FRIENDS...

4. A nice nice Chee-Na purse/bag

A gift from Joselyn.

Cos the other time when she was showing me her collections, I think these Chee-Na purse/bag that she owned from Chinatown, looked special and nice. That was why she gotten me one of them too!

THANK YOU JOSELYN!

5. "DIVA in the house" poster (see left)
[Image of poster stolen from Joo's blog]

Joo made this poster on the left using one of those makeover photos that I had once shared with her.

The poster was contained in a scroll with beautifully tied ribbon and a sweet white rose.


Interesting things she met on this project diva poster..

First, on the Friday afternoon (11 Nov), she was accused of being distracted from studies, due to the book she borrowed on Thursday.

She had claimed to be only "playing around with Photoshop" and "re-vamping her blogskin", but in actual fact, she was also designing this poster.

Next, on the quality of the paper of the poster, she insisted to use "movie-poster type of quality", and she had a little headache looking through all the various paper quality.

Lastly, the scroll and the ribbon. She said that many of the available designs were meant to be ROM. So she had to ask if there's anything that don't look so "ROM-ish". In the end, she got someone from the shop to tie a nice ribbon.

These are some sweet things Joo can do... Love the poster, Love the ribbon!!

Thanks Joo, for the effort!

6. TBS Cranberry X'mas Package (See left)

[Above image taken from TheBodyShop homepage]

A gift from Joo, Joselyn, Ling, and Daniel.

It consist of Shower Gel, Shimmer Body Lotion, and Shimmer Lip Balm, all in the flavour of Cranberry.

Psst.. Sharing an info with you..

This present adds on to my collection of Cranberry stuff, especially the shower gel. Other than the Cranberry Linen Spray that I bought last year...

Last year, I also bought Cranberry Shower Gel. Around 60-70% of it had been used up.
On my birthday last year, Meiling gave me a bottle Cranberry Shower Gel too.
So, this is my 3rd bottle!!

I have no worries that I will run out of Cranberry Shower Gel this year! lolx

Wish for next year, or this year's Christmas..
If I'm going to get anything Cranberry from Santa, now that I have the shimmering lotion and lip balm, I wish for a body butter or a body scrub.

To Joo, Joselyn, Ling and Daniel... Thanks for the Cranberry stuff! I loved the idea that my Cranberry collections is increasing!!

7. Gucci ENVY ME EDT miniature (See left)

A gift from Wenting and Eric.

Something on my wishlist, but somehow, shrank in size. lolx.

They had bought it through an online auction, and explained the size was what they can afford as a student. I can fully understand! haha..

Evil Renetta who inspired my liking in ENVY ME, laughed at me, cos she say 3ml of perfume is easily finished by her. Spray once, and it's all gone! Then I say, that was why a dab-on instead of spray-on. Then she said that dab-on was a passe... Diao.. This kind also got fashion meh? Don't understand. Hehe.. Away with whatever cold water that this evil Rene splashed on me.. She won't be able to understand my delight.

This miniature bottle looks so cute and special! Glad to have it under my care! And guess what? I FINALLY HAVE ENVY ME!! YEAH!

MANY MANY THANKS to Wenting and Eric!!

    Haha, sorry couldn't fulfill any of your wishlist items.

    Yup the slipper chain was partial souvenir and partial bdae present. The other souvenir items I bought are not as nice. Hahaha.

    I love it too. Its not that pricey but very exquisite and sweet.

    It's okay about the wishlist.. Many many many people had reflected it as too expensive and unrealistic to the present givers' pockets.

    Anyway, thanks for the slipper chain. Haha.. Love it!
