I'm not guilty of laziness this time. This time, the excel file is to blame for the endless report I have to endure. But I would like to share the lovely treats I got from the mail.
It was almost 4 in the afternoon when the landlady knocked on my door. She handed me a notice from the Post Office with matching hand gestures where is the place exactly located. I think she's also excited for me when she saw my wide smile.
Days before that, I received an email from TB asking for my address. I joined her "You've got snail mail" game. I didn't expect to be chosen. You know how much I love the snail mail. Needless to say, I am really excited to pick it up. Why do I have to pick it up? because the customs had to check the content in my presence to ensure no illegal products we're sent with the goodies.
The amazing part was the fact that it was once on the other side of the world from TB's hands and now I was holding it. It's really magical. Thank you TB for the wonderful treats. I'm not allergic to any of them and I did enjoy everything. Please wait for the postman to knock on your door :)
P.S. My mom said you're beautiful and you're kind to send me the treats. She was amazed too. She loves the picture inside the card. Thanks!
see that snail? yes, it traveled far.
the yummy treats TB sent me.
Ms. Fields - I devoured them all
Key Chain and Pin - They're holding my apartment keys
Extra Dessert Delights - I gave them to the daughter of my friend. She's a lovely girl.
SOUR PATCH - I ate almost 3/4 of the bears. I shared them with friends and officemates but I almost finished the whole pack before I reach the office. Hehehe!
The card! Yay, I love reading handwritten letters.
I have my mails ready. All I need to do now is to mail them.
I'm glad that customs didn't confiscate anything! Tell your mother thank you for me, I'm sure she's lovely as well. :)
ReplyDeleteI will let her know for sure. I'm glad they gave everything. Thanks TB.
DeleteYou deserved to be picked sis, coz you are so passionate about snail mail. Ang sarap ng feeling for me to send out those parcels and I'm sure ganun din si TB. Yup, I think it's amazing how snail mail works (when it does, hayz). I can almost see the smile on your face =)
ReplyDeleteYay, ready na rin pala ang mga letters mo sis. Hope you're no longer that busy and that you're feeling ok. Take care =)
I'm still busy sis but I'm all well right now. Thank God. TB really loves snail mail too like the way we both love it.
DeleteAwww,exciting! Ang cute naman niyan. I keep saying that I want to join... Hmm.. I better act on it na din. Hehe.
ReplyDeletedo it sis, I enjoyed my trip to the post office. Send me your address nga pala.
DeleteWow! So awesome. Always fun to receive presents!!! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it is really awesome!
Deleteawww twin sis, I know how happy you are. I wish I could participate before this year is over. You know how I busy I am. Hayz.
ReplyDeleteThe treats are magnificent. I wish I'm your co-worker so I could taste some of those. hehe.. I hope matapos na rin yang excel files mo. Love you!
It's okay, take your time. Alam ko super duper busy ka. malapit na akong maging free sa mga excels na to twin sis. Konting panahon na lang.
Deletei actually have not thought about snail mails anymore. but this is a good idea to surprise lovely people i know:-)
ReplyDeleteme too until TB came up with the good idea and when I received a Christmas card last year.
Deleteakala ko kung ano ng TB yan? One time i'm desperate to get your address for some reason.

Deletekasi may sulat din ako sayo.
Deleteeh asan na yung sulat? send mo na. wag solicitation letter ah, poorita lang ako.

Deletepromise mo wag mong post ah. saka letter yan ah, baka naman subpoena yan. hehehe.
Deleteang ganda nung card. i remember the time na nakareceive din ako ng gift from a fellow blogger im so happy that time. kaya ramdam ko ang saya mo =D
ReplyDeletedi ba wagas ang saya. Ewan ko kung anong meron sa snail mail at natutuwa akong amuyin ang mga letters.
Deletewow.. how sweet... I never recieved mails. in my whole life... except emails of course... but mails and packages none... hope somebody would sent me something... hello sey... how are you...
ReplyDeletei'm more than fine Al. Ikaw how are you? Weh, di nga promise, kahit sulat? Dapat nag-try kang makipag-penpal. hehehe
DeleteIf I receive something like that unexpectedly, I'll also have the widest smile and thank the sender endlessly. Sometimes little things are the best things that will bring us joy:)
ReplyDeleteBelated Happy Valentine:)

DeleteAwww... that's sweet! I love recieving snail mails, too. Parang ang sarap ng feeling na nakakatanggap ka ng isang bagay, galing sa isang tao via mail. Sa technology kasi ngayon, napapadali na ang lahat. Nakakamiss yung mga snail mails and letters.
ReplyDeleteHm, parang gusto kong magjoin.. pag iisipan ko nga.

Deletethose are lovely treats indeed. One of the perks of being a blogger, you get to be friends with people from different parts of the world!
ReplyDeleteit's nice to have foreign blogger friends who share their culture too.
DeleteI wonder how friendship can cross boundaries and travel seas. You're so deserving of the mailed treats Sey! Love lots! Can I grab your badge?
ReplyDeleteSure and thanks. I was all smile when I got the pressie.
DeleteSnail mails are really rare nowadays. I can imagine your excitement while opening the package hihihi...for sure ngiti hanggang tenga =)

Sweet! Meron kaming sinalihan dati ng sister ko snack swap naman from all over the world. Ang naging ka swap namin e from Germany at USA. Syempre mga pinoy snacks ang pinadala namin like boy bawang,chippy, oishi sponge, Voice combo butter flavor, dried mangoes etc. Yan ang pinaka mga nagustuhan nila.Nakakatuwa lang kasi natitikman nila yung mga snacks natin dito. May mga letters din na kasama yung package na natanggap namin.
