For Robin

We [Jenny and I] received a wonderful package a couple of days back from Robin via swap-bot. It wasn’t a swap but a package full of wishes, it was a lovely surprise! There’s a parcel for Jenny and then for me; we were both ecstatic and to thank the nice lady, Jenny insisted on sending her some goodies from our side of the world. Let’s take a look.

- a small size souvenir shopping bag [Cebu is the city we live in]

- a small jewelry box [covered in shells]

- 2 souvenir magnets

- 1 souvenir coin purse

- 1 pouch

- and a 5 packs of Jenny’s favorite snack

Hope she will like the items we have assembled for her.

Swaps Sent

I have been terribly busy the last month [the Holidays and what not] got me all worked up, I hardly know what to do first. I have taken several pics of my swaps but haven't gotten around to posting them. So let's take a look now shall we?

- for Profile Swap - Yellow for December -

- for my Black and Blue swap -

I have been on a Book swap over at swap-bot and my receiving partner already rated me for it; I hope mine would show up next week. Due to the holidays the mails are rather really really slow. Crossing my fingers!

Tuesday Surprise

I got home around 11:30 AM after a 9 hour excrutiating shift ...*sigh* I don't like my work truth be told but giving that up would be like committing suicide ... so I stayed. I cannot wait for the clock to strike 10:3o AM so I could log off and go home it's one of the things I look forward to everyday ... coming home to find a postcard or an envie waiting for me.

Got home and my uncle placed on my computer table 2 "naked" postcards and 1 rather large envelope, I smiled. I was right ... penpalling and swapping is definitely a great stress reliever! Let's see what I got!!!

See the two postcards? Both are from the group swaps I participated in swap-bot; Sender's Choice Postcard both were from USA. In this particular swap we were given 6 partners that we have to send one naked postcard to each so a total of 6 and in return we'd receive 6 postcards as well. So far I got two and am looking forward to the other four.



Then notice that large brown package at the back? That is from Spain from a new found friend via Friends Circle. She sent me a bunch of FB's and this really big and thick Diddl Letter Pad. So so so nice! Thanks much Estela, my envie for you will be posted tomorrow.

~ the very large Diddl pad, so love it! ~

So the one above are the envies I mailed today, one for Angela [met her via facebook and we've become regular penpals]; Bev [met her via friendshipbooklets.org and I adore the fb's she sent]; Michelle [via facebook as well] and the rest for the tags I joined in swap-bot. I am addicted to swapping and tagging I am almost always present on the Tags Forum at swap-bot. hehehehe. Oh see the big envie at the back??? Thats the very first big envie I've sent out either and thats for Anais in Paris, one of the things on her wishlist is a sketchpad heheheh and that made it big ...

I cannot wait for tomorrow ... hopefully there'll be envies waiting for me when I get home.

Mails Posted

The post office lady and I are now well acquainted with each other seeing that I drop mails close to almost daily. She said my vice is rather expensive ... tugs!

Mail Monday

I posted 5 envies earlier after work together with one naked postcard. The people at the post office were like ... didn't you just mail a couple of envies last week? I did but that was for other stuff or shall I say for other people??? tugs!



The ones I mailed earlier were for the group swap I joined in swap-bot, deadline for posting is still on the 30th but I wanna get it done earlier so that I'll one room for joining in another swap. Someone from the site did mention that it's going to be very addictive and I guess she's right coz am getting hooked.



I still have three more swaps to complete, the next deadline is on the 5th of October, as for the other two, partners we're not assigned yet. I've messaged the people at swap-bot informing them that I've mailed their stuff already and that to let me know once they get them.



As for me, an envie did arrive from Michelle ... we met via a Friendship/Swappers group in Facebook and her envie contained fb's and one handwritten note. Love it!



Will get back to her by the end of the week ... I just hope more envies would come my way tomorrow.
