salamat kay Rosa Rosal

you know what i like most about christmas? wrapping gifts.

i know how christmas kind of deteriorates in value as one grows old. but one thing i really look forward to doing every christmas, well actually before every christmas day, is wrapping gifts. atin atin lang to ha pero sometimes i think, when everything else fails in my so-called-career, i'd definitely be a gift wrap girl at SM... hahaha. no really, it gives me a natural high.

i remember watching TeleAralan ng Kakayahan when they featured Gift Wrapping with no less than the SM "gift wrappers" as their guest resource persons. Yes, that show hosted by Rosa Rosal. husay! how they make those ribbons curl, how they do the different wrapping techniques like envelope, diagonals and the ever famous T-shirt technique! hahaha. those were the days when the gifts wrapped in a "T-shirt way" were still cool.

i really see to it that every gift i give is beautifully and intricately wrapped. that's why i end up spending more because, sometimes, the price of the wrapping "paraphernalias" are almost half the price of the gift itself. kasi 100 pesos lang naman yung gift XP so daanin na lang sapresentation. hehehe.

anyways, this is the very same reason why i hate...HATE..."gift wrappers" at the mall who wrap carelessly and hastily. yung tipong matapos lang. you know... when the edges are not aligned and there are spaces that bulge. now that's frustrating!

probably, the reason why i like giving beautifully wrapped gifts is because i like surprises. i love seeing my "receivers" all excited and happy. kahit na ba panyo lang laman eh. i believe that the fun of receiving a gift is in opening it.
