Something nice ( i mean very nice) happened to me yesterday morning, it all started with a SMS message that read something like this " Good morning boss, am in Penang, going to check in Gurney now, want to pass something to you, if possible for you to come before 12 noon, " didnt know who that was because i lost some of my contacts when my ex phone went kaput.
I was thinking who could be so good in giving me something,so i called back, no answer, and she called back, Voila!!!!!!! she was someone that i have been longing to meet for so many moons and suns, and she was none other than Claire.
I was truly moved and touched by the simple gesture of Claire's, to call me up and wanting to meet up with me so without a split second of hesitation, i told her to give me 30 minutes(actually i didn't need 30 minutes to get there but you know, i have to go to the powder room and make myself look presentable ma! first impression doest come again the second time, right?)
Claire is my blogger friend, we have been blogging friends since last year, she is one of my fav bloggers to say the least, she has never failed to amaze me with her blogging skill and her tenacity in keeping her blog updated faster than you take your next breath( exaggerate a bit lah) but indeed she is a prolific blogger.
I guess non bloggers will never understand and enjoy the serendipity as we do by just blogging, the joy and those edifying words we get from our fellow blogger friends.
Q) Hey guys, please take a guess what did Claire present to me as a gift?
This is to you Claire, dont ever call me Boss again, otherwise i will banish myself from you..we are friends ma.
Claire's site is here.... http://www.reanaclaire.com/
P/S : Winter, spring, summer or fall, all you got to do is call................

ReplyDeleteShe made me so hungry!!!!!!!!!
Ok,,, OK she presented me some foods,,,
ReplyDeleteClue no 1. they come in different sizes.
Clue no 2..What is outside may not be what is inside.
Clue no 3... Most of the time, when you eat them, they are cold already but they still taste very nice.
Clue no 4....They come from the "furnace" but they still maintain their texture...
Winner will be rewarded with the same kind form who else but Claire,hahahahahah
