My *Present* Indulgence

Published by eGal | Filed under Abstract

“Present = now, current or something delightful…a surprise or BOTH?!”

It has been quite some time since I had a present. Pretty pathetic actually. I am a surprise-lover - always springing surprises, pleasant ones, of course, on my friends but I don’t seem to be ‘reciprocrated’ in this case. Not that I am expecting it but it would be nice. I will DEFINITELY love it, for sure! No doubt! No queries.

Today, I feel so compelled to write this blog although I will prefer to spend my time on other stuff on my to-do list. I am very delighted. Surprised, actually. Perhaps with a bit of sweetness. I had my ‘1st present’ in a loonnngggg while. And this present is even more delightful because I had been considering to get one such book for a loonnnggg time. Just that I have been on budget and not much mood to go shopping. Also, no one had asked or noticed or perhaps, remembered. Until today.

I was meeting “the-19-year-old” boy whom we all call Brennan. He surprised me with this photography book. It was very thoughtful of him. I know he was on budget. And this photography book couldn’t have been any cheaper than $10 (even if he did get a very good discount). But the price is not the issue here. The point is….he notices my interest and passion for photography and when he came across this book (be it, he just so happen saw it or flip through it when he’s bored or interested in it as well)….he has got that photography book for me! The keyword = present!

Who doesn’t like present? Perhaps, i can make full use of this chance to lament, once again, how i have not been getting presents….for years…of my birthday. Sigh…o well, my mood has definitely been up many levels since the receipt of this book. So for now, i shall not remember the no-present days but indulge myself totally in this *present* moment! This is so cool!!! You will get to enjoy the fruit of this book too when you see better techniques, etc on my photos here…

Thank you, Bren!!!
