This may be late but not too late to flex the gifts my friends gave me during last year's Christmas exchange gift party in the Hiveph community.
I didn't know what I want for Christmas and I just thought of copying what others wanted to receive which was Hive, HBD, or Gcash, but @wittyzell didn't wanna accept it and said, I should pick something different.
I thought she was my secret Santa at that time, so I guess she didn't want to give a coin as a gift and I was thinking again until I remembered I wanted to buy a nonstick pan for a presentable-looking foodies beehive blog in the future, so I sent a photo of the cooking pan that I want to receive, but then I deleted it thus the conversation below happened.
I was so sure that witty was my secret Santa at that time but @cthings and @arcgspy joined in and continued to confuse me because they were also asking if I was sure about the pan, I thought maybe it was cthings but then I was like "nahh there's no way" and then arc was kinda serious that time too, so I believed it was her and not witty and then I just thought it's either one of them.
WHO WAS MY SECRET SANTA?
*drum rolls * it was Cthings!
Okay, so there were a lot of people who asked me to be their proxy in the party because they couldn't make it due to personal life party reasons and then when I received C's message, I thought she was also gonna ask the same favor but it turns out she was my secret Santa after all. 😂
Was I happy? feeling Kilig? Smiling from ear to ear? "yes of course!*" who wouldn't right? receiving a gift from the hiveph muse or crush ng hiveph community is a privilege! basta I was really happy! 😁
I was very happy when I received it and amazed at how big it was because It's what I imagined it to be, which looks like the ones I see in the cooking tutorial videos. I was already Imagining what dish to cook with it at that time. 😂
UNEXPECTED GIFT FROM SECRET SANTA
Cthings mentioned that she has another gift coming for me and I asked what it was but she didn't spill it because she wants me to get surprised once I received it., but some part of me thought it was a naughty gift from the way she said it and I guessed it might be a dildo to which she replied "di mo sure", a famous line that she always uses. 😂
It took a month and some weeks for the item to arrive because there was a traffic issue with the number of orders during the Christmas holiday, and just when the gift finally arrived, I was traveling to Davao.
C was anxious, the item might be opened by a family member, and she thought it would be embarrassing on my part if my family knew I ordered a sex toy hahaha well... It would,😂 but I called my mom not to open the item no matter how curious she was about the package. Although my mom asked what it was, and I just said I don't know and explained that she shouldn't try opening it because it was a gift from a friend who expects me to be the one to open it. My mom still playfully insisted, but I jokingly said she's bad if she tries to, then she just agreed not to open it. my mom was very respectful ~ she's the best mom.😌
I shared it with my hive close friends that, cthings gave me another gift and they were amazed and laughing, they asked me if I already used it, so that I can rate the product and I said, I haven't used it yet because I don't have a room for myself to do the unholy and some suggested doing it in the CR but I'm not comfortable doing it there since I'm more a bed person haha! and even if I did use it, I might get caught because the vibration sound is really really loud HAHAHA I don't want to get caught by my brother or parents.
Anyway, I didn't really expect someone to take my joke about receiving and giving a dildo seriously, not that I don't like it or that I'm complaining about it. I just find it funny hahaha and this kind of thing is not new to me since I have friends who have ideas about giving naughty gifts like this during party events. 😉
I've already said my thank you to cthings about her gifts, but I'll say it again~ Thank you for the thoughtful gift c ~ I really appreciate it. 💝
MORE HIVEPH MEMBERS GIFTS TO ME!
Ate @pinckchic gave me these gifts and I was very happy with the sweet foods and the expensive Starbucks coffee, I thought to myself "I'd definitely consume this while I'm blogging since sweets will help generate words to say while I blog" what surprised me was the hive t-shirts! like, I didn't own one yet or did try making one, even though I'm a devoted old member of the platform, but you know, I've thought of it ~
Ate pink! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS WONDERFUL GIFT! I will do bawi to you someday ha. 💝 and I already consumed everything except for the shirt! 😂 It chocolate, wafer and coffee were delicious!
This gift was given by my buddy mebu @sensiblecast, this was supposed to be demotry's gift but he said he doesn't want to have it, no matter how mebu insisted. So for them to not get stressed out about the item for not having an owner because both of them doesn't want it. I, butted in and said I'll receive it instead. Imagine the poor wallets' feelings and getting passed around 😤 hmmp! so I volunteered! 🤣 Thank you for this mebu buddy!!!!
GALLERY'S GIFT TO ME
The gallery gave out a Christmas gift to all of their artists and I'm so happy I'm one of them, I guess finale art is making products out of their artist artwork which is very cool! I wonder If my artwork will be part of this kind of thing too. charot! Thank you Finale art for this gift!
MY SWEET FRIEND MA'AM MALOU 💝
Ma'am Malou was a sweet and thoughtful friend for giving me gifts every holiday to the point I felt embarrassed to receive so many gifts from her. The most gift that I was so so happy to receive was a birthday gift too! Like pati birthday hindi niya pinalagpas.
I posted this in my story on Instagram and this was connected to my Facebook my day and she said, I should just be quiet about the gift, So I hid her name so that our other circle of friends won't see it, I felt special when she did this.
I received a call from shakey's that they got a delivery for me and I was overwhelmed by the foods! It was so many! but of course, I shared it with my family ~ I was happily eating the chicken, carbonara, pizza, and sandwich.
anyway,
To all my friends who were very thoughtful for giving me these gifts during the important holidays I want you to know that I am so so so thankful for all of you! There will come a time, I will be the one to return the kindness you have given me.
