Some nice gifts...

I fixed my cabinets yesterday. It's a great achievement for me. Clap, clap, clap. But more than that I then I remembered some nice gifts I got last christmas...

Oktomat Camera (Lomocamera) from Jason Magbanua. The man, by the way, recently won an award again. He's one great person, one great friend. He influenced me to go for lomography. Apprently, I haven't been hardcore yet with this hobby but will try to post some of the pictures I took before. With this oktomat, each picture will capture 9 figures in one shot. Isn't it cool?

Kenneth Cole Black wallet from Madge Lejano. Love it. Love the many pockets inside to put all my cards. I just haven't changed my wallet yet, but I do intend to do so soon. Madge is a very good make-up artist and I have high regard to her work. It's always fun working with her team during events.

This is what I'm reading currently. Well, I just started last night. Thanks to my good friend Grace who sent it to me from the US. Grace was my bride before. I did their wedding. She's been very good to me and I really consider her as a dear friend. The book is about 10 essentials for achieving success as you manage a business. It talks about Martha's realization, her learnings while in prison. It's a good book.

(Pardon the blur of the picture). A personalized notepad with our names (dicky and jody liwanag). This came from John and Benz Rana. It's one of my favorites. Got the same thing before from Jong of Write Impression but it was just my name. I find this gift very useful, especially on the nature of my job. I'm just so proud carrying it around.

I'm grateful about the above things but more than that, I'm grateful for the friendships from these people.

Lovely life with friends around...
