Season of giving

December 13th, 2009 Steph 5 comments

I received my Christmas gift early this year. It’s quite funny how we’re not Christian but we still adopt the practice of giving gifts. There was no gift last year as we bought the PS3 and the year before Dav bought me a DS Lite.

So, I came home late on Thursday night and found a nicely wrapped box on the bed, waiting for me. The box was shipped from Amazon, USA. There can only be one item in there… indeed it was theĀ Kindle! If you have never heard about this gadget, it’s an electronic book reader. I’ve always wanted one.

It is a black and white e-book reader, about the size of A5 (half of A4). The look and feel is very sleek and smooth.

Look how slim the e-reader is.

So besides Dav giving me a present, I’ve also decided to give myself a present to reward myself. I finally bought myself a DSLR. I got the Canon 7D. Now I can proudly say I’m a owner of a DSLR!

Not sure what has gotten into Dav… maybe he loves me too much. He gave me another surprised gift! This time it is a Swarovski Crystal Mini Butterfly Pendant. He bought it when he was in HK.

According to him, he was in a shopping frenzy when it was time to fly home. So he went ard the airport and started looking for stuff to buy. Since I am kinda crazy abt butterfly, he thought it wld be nice to get me another one. He also bought my parents tea leaves and chinese biscuits.

Thanks babe! *muak*

Longest Time Apart

June 12th, 2006 Steph 6 comments

Dav flew off this morning… he will be in US for about 2 months. During these 2 months, I have my own trip organised… Korea for 2 weeks, then off to Vietnam for 3 weeks. This will be the longest time we’re apart since we got together. On top of that, he wont be able to celebrate my birthday with me…

Since he wont be around to celebrate my birthday with me, he promised to spend one whole day shopping with me and I get to choose what I want (of course not ANYTHING… within the limits la). So off we went shopping last Saturday… we were out from 10am until 12 midnite! Besides shopping for a birthday gift, he had to run some errands for his trip as well… and we watched Cars. It was a very funny animation. Pixar never dissapoints.

Presents from Dav… 2 lovely boxes… which contains…
1. Butterfly pendant
2. Bracelet

Also managed to get a dual analog time watch from GUESS … couple’s set some more!
