What’s in a box?
One of my mom’s pasalubongs (a.k.a. gifts) yesterday:
She also got me two leather watch bands so I can change whenever I want to.
I’m so excited I wore it today!
The Hello Kitty watch they got me is perfect–simple, classic and in white–something I could wear everyday.
It’s been awhile since I’ve had a Hello Kitty watch. When I started working, I somehow forgot about my fondness for HK stuff but now, I revived my love for Hello Kitty once again. So when my parents asked me what I want from the Philippines, I remembered that Manila has several Gift Gate shops [we don’t have them here in Sydney 🙁 ] and told them I want an HK watch.

I received tons of other pasalubongs from my mom and dad and my mother-in-law…and even from my friends in Manila. Not only were the gifts great blessings but moreso the friendship and love that they symbolize. I’m thankful that even if I’m so far away and I don’t keep in touch all the time, they send something to me whenever my mom goes on holiday here. I’m blessed and truly grateful.

That’s a much nicer watch than I expected when I read the post title. It’s beautiful. You have wonderful family and friends–and you’re reaping what you’ve sown.
