.. giveaway ..

another word i'm aware for this year, a gift which we all aware the definition of this word. tr.v. gift·ed, gift·ing, gifts : to present (something) as a gift to (a person). honestly, i love the activity of searching or looking a gift for someone especially for my friend. i never find any difficulties for this. it seems that i can read people's mind of what they want and what they really need. i may say it's my "gift". only few people or i may say not so many people knows me that well. i usually hate the concept of present for myself. i prefer to give myself my own giveaway on my "day". most of people (i mean even the close one) they don't really know what i want, what i need. so they just give me a present that sometimes beyond what i expected.

is not that i hate their presents, but the presents should represent our character right? what we like? what we need? isn't supposed to be like that? 10 years ago, i've got this Easter bunny present for my birthday. in my mind, i'm wondering this person knows i don't celebrate Easter (even though it's close to Easter) and i'm not christian as well. since, that easter bunny chocolate came from some one "special" i'm thankful, at least he had an effort to look for something on my birthday. :)
then two years ago, and last year (if i'm not mistaken) i got a girly cardigan, well everyone can guess i would never wear that things, even on my formal occasions. it's just not me, and many more gift that become a waste for me. it's not that i hate the present, i appreciate their thoughts and i appreciate their effort.

but, if they keep giving me the things which is not "me" i won't even care to wear it or putting it in somewhere that i could see. it definitely will goes to my drawer and become my un-seen collection. that's why i always knows what people need, what people want and understand people's character for their gift. i'm enjoying the moment people wear and used what i gave to them, it feels blessed to know "see i know what they want!" my tips, if you want to but a gift for people please start to consider what they like, what is their character and more importantly what they need. happy browsing for a gift people!!
