This year, I felt like I gave my all in one aspect of my life. When I heard about Prinsesa Musang’s exchange gift, I realized: “Hey, maybe it would be nice if I’d also be on the receiving end.” Chos lang! I just find it interesting plus it would be a challenge hunting for gifts.
Something small :
Who still uses paper notebooks, right? I do! But I love them small enough to put inside my pocket. A small black Moleskine-like notebook without rules would do as long as it’s leather-bound and classy… but I won’t mind a Moleskine, really.
Something big:
A giant smurf action figure! I saw one in Ngong Ping Village in my recent trip to Hong Kong but didn’t buy it hoping I could still find one in downtown HK. Too bad we ran out of time and weren’t able to shop even for other stuff. If you happen to see one here, you don’t have to buy it for me. Just let me know where to find it. 🙂
Something cute:
A smurf key-chain or action figure.
Something soft:
A fluffy throw pillow for my office chair! (For quick naps during lunchbreaks. Hehe.)
Something techie:
A 100mm Nikkor micro lens or a flash for my Nikon D90. Hahahahaha! I’m a bit into photography and one of my frustrations is to get really close-up pictures of flowers and insects. Come to think of it, if I’d get the micro lens, you can forget about everything else on the list. Plus I’ll be your slave. Hahahaha.
Pero sige na nga, anything about photography will do.
Something fancy:
Is this too fancy? 😀
It is? Oh…
Something gray:
I love wearing soft cotton shirts. I’m thinking plain v-neck shirt, wag lang mukhang undershirt. And uhm.. I have a small/extra small frame.
Something wearable:
I used to run at least once every month but when I started to get lazy shin splints, I had to slow down until my laziness finally got me. Now that my gut is complaining, I think it’s high time that I start running again. A new running gear might inspire me (shorts/singlet/socks/cap – kahit ano basta men’s small yung size). Emphasis on MIGHT.
Something you need:
I started painting and sketching again. I need a new set of decent watercolour pencils. Like this one, perhaps?
How about this?
Most National Bookstore branches have these.
Something you can use for work:
A wireless mouse will definitely minimize the wire clutter on my desk.
Something sweet:
I’ve been looking for this elusive chocolate from Candy Corner – Bahlsen Crispini Crunchy Choco. I might’ve had asked every kiosk but only the one in Newport Mall of Resorts Wall Manila has it.
Dear Santa I’ve been good and I really, really , really want:
I hope Santa is reading this because I really, really, really want that something techie or THIS.

As I read back my list, I realized the items are bit harder to work on, yung tipong “todo-na-to level”. But hey, that’s part of the challenge right? Don’t worry, I’m actually easy to please.
Sabi nga ni Kumareng Zenaida Seva: “Ito ay gabay lamang…”
Surprise me. ‘Cause you are also in for a surprise. 😉
