Christmas presents

I recieved quite a lot of christmas presents, also relatively shared a lot with jsyn. Jsyn's presents are predictable but all of them are things I like. Michael's present is very cute. I think I will have fun watering it.

But I am disappointed with vnc's present, and I didnt bother to hide my displeasure because I already told him I would not mince my mean words if I find that I dont like the present.

Just in case that happened, I already explictly told him I want a book. Any novel will do fine. I thought it cant be easier.

Guys hate to shop for presents, and have the absolute gift in getting the most unappropriate present, hence I thought I better voice out my wishlist before I get something I hate.

He happily bought me a bracelet from perlini silver.

I came back from lunch and found the silver paper bag on my table and I stupidly thought out loud, eh, who give me perlini silver huh?

He acknowledged.

(Oh, he gave jsyn perlini silver too. He said he dowan to be 偏心.)

I turned around and faced him in disbelief. How could he! I already say I want a book! And he gave me perlini silver? I immediately know that I wont like it.

He gave me a puppy look and said he saw that I wear a lot of jewellery and I should like perlini silver mah.

Yah. I wear a lot of earrings and anklets. But I almost never wear bracelet and necklace!

While I was still praying that he bought earrings, the colleague who went with him (weird one leh, why he dowan to go with his wife but go with a male colleague, no wonder gifts so not nice) mentioned that vnc originally wanted to buy a bangle but decided against it in the end.

I congratuated him on his smart decision because I dont wear bangles and bracelets. He told me yah, he bought a bracelet.

-_-"

I sulked and told him I dont like. He tried to convince me it is nice. I shut up and went back to work. Minutes later I sulked again and repeated that I dont like. He tried to appease me and told me next time he would buy me a present that I like.

He said he knows what I like but still decided not to get that for me. How peculiar. I told him my birthday is another 7 mths away and he told me if I would still be in the company by then he would buy a present that I like for me.

I told him such things are hard to predict one what. What if I died before then? Then I will never know if he bought a perfect present for me!

He happily said he would burn it for me as an offering.

-_-"

I left it at that for a few minutes, then (I know I am a pain in the ass lah) I turned around and hiam-ed again. He gave me his puppy look again (kns, very smart, pick up my puppy-look skill) and said he walked until very tired then he finally decided to buy these two presents.

I acknowledged his effort and kept my mouth shut after that. In front of him at least, nothing is stopping me from complaining to jsyn or on this blog.

On the train to the pub, I opened the box and announce to jsyn it is worse than I thought. I quickly ducked it back into the box and thought that out of sight and out of mind.

Eventually, in my drunk state, I put on the bracelet while I was on the bus, and I am still wearing it and looking at my wrist occasionally in disgust.

When I am less lazy I would add a picture of it. But dont count on me hor.
