come monday, our office will be having a christmas party for all the department heads. and take note, it’s a breakfast christmas party. imagine that. :)

and what party wouldn’t be complete without an exchanging of christmas gifts?

so yesterday, my staff handed me a small piece of paper from the hr officer. it’s a paper to write down our wishlist with. 2 priority items.

i stared at it for a very long time.

it got me thinking. i really don’t know what gift i want to receive.

i was thinking of writing down a title of a book that my partner got to read a couple months back. but then, i thought, do i have the luxury of time to read a book? usually when i get home, i’m just too tired to even read a book.

or if i’m going to be pratical, maybe i could write that i would want to receive a signpen. It would really be useful since i sign tons of documents. but then, that would be a very boring gift to ask for.

how about food? chocolates? a shirt maybe? a planner would be nice. a good cd?

ugh! i’m just stressing too much with this wish list!

one thing i do want though. i just miss the taste of a very moist and delicious fruitcake. it’s been 2 years since i’ve had my favorite fruitcake. so, fruitcake it is! =D

one wish item down. one more to go. =)
