September 2, 2008 - Flown in from Hong Kong

A while ago we have a bunch of funny friends that came from Hong Kong. First come Jerry, then come Lewis and last came Steve.

Although we were all not very close, but I cannot deny that their stay in Malaysia “enlightens" the atmosphere in the office. The office was less quiet. Their stay last for two to three weeks.

Then again Steve came back from Hong Kong today carrying gifts for us. We did not do anything to deserve gifts... Below is the few presents given.



From Lewis A McD wrapper that, at first I was thinking what it was. After a shake or two, the sound from the box says it was a soft toy. Then after, I open the wrapper and found a box. Guess what it was! It is a Hello Kitty doll. On the box it writes "Work Hard \(>_<)/". It is pretty inspiring.

Message to Lewis: Thanks for the doll. I like the inspiring words but I never like Hello Kitty ;( That cat has no mouth. I never like cat... I like the wrapper, the box but not Hello Kitty. Sorry about that.



From Steve 2 mini can of sweets from "Disney". Well we do not know if it is actually from "Disney" hehe... I don’t take sweets Steve. Thanks though because I love the mini can. It is very suitable for me to put my meds.



From Jerry and Lewis (again): A box of facial whitening essence mask. If only you can see the look on my face when I saw it. Where in the world are there "TWO" guys give a female that? Yeap, you find it here from Hong Kong. According to those two adorable guys, they bought that thinking female loves beauty products. So they decided to give us a box of mask.



Comment:

1) You guys are so adorable besides a boyfriend buying that, or bringing their girlfriend to make purchase on beauty product with them, I never thought you would do that!

2) Of all things, a mask as gift. I can’t help but think that because you love us so much and afraid we might look old and ugly, you bought us THAT... It might be a hint for us working girls should really do take care of our youthful skin while we are still young. Do not wait until you are old with wrinkles to do so. Hehe, therapy will be of no help especially when it is too late.

3) In conclusion I think you two are pretty unique to think of buying a box of mask as gift. Tell me is this a cultural kind of things that resulted in such unique gifts? I sincerely think that you two are very thoughtful guy to think of it.

Thank you all. Next time don’t waste money buying things. I don’t know about the others but to me it is not all about the material or the things. It is the hidden intangible value that counts. I will still treasure it as much even if it is just a wrapper ;)
