Unexpected gifts

It had been awhile since I last bought/read humour magazine "Gila-Gila"..but the cover of this month's edition caught my eyes the other day :




I thot it was quite funny the way the girl in purple baju kurung was posing, and what she said..:-)..


(check out that two grinning customers..wanted to join them too..hehe)


This topic arose at the time when it was quite difficult to get supplies of cooking oil,

..but I guess by now the guy is happy that she'd accepted his proposal (with all the gifts, minus the oils..hehehe..)


[ note : I've yet to read the mag.. :-) ]


Talk about gifts, last Monday I was pleasantly surprised when I got a lovely material from a former office mate who has been like an older sister since I first knew her..




She said the soft colour suited me and asked me to make a "Kebaya" dress style out of this material as she'd like to see me in one, but I said I prefer Baju Kurung as it will last longer...[tqvm but sorry ye sis!]



And later on in the evening whilst practising bowling with my friends, each one of us got a rose..




..may not be the real one but nice.. tq. :-)





Lovely gestures..made my day.
(even thou I played bowling badly that evening..hehe..)
