I’m not a yellow tea pot

Today is June 11, 2012. It’s the 9th year of our steady relationship. The fact is not all of 3285 days has been steady in our relationship. And I would be lying if I were to say it’s been perfect. You know I say this because I’m honest to myself and to others. So just allow me to say this.

I know I have made you disappointed. I know I have made you cried. I know there have been things I did and still do which frustrate you. I know I have made you laugh. I know I have made you smile. I know there are things I can still do in my life with you.

I know you dislike surprises. More so, when I already told you. I know after we argue, you don’t like me near you. I don’t know though what happens from here. I do know though you’ll be by my side here.

P.S.: Here was your surprise.

The surprise gift from Jenny Sun

Quickie on Jenny Sun. She’s a Malaysian wedding photographer who shoots couples in Sydney and KL. Jenny’s distinctive style is to shoot into the sun. It goes against the rules to have the sun behind but I guess if you can pull it off, why not.

Not so long ago, Jenny ran a contest giving away a ShootSac slingbag for photographers. The slingbag’s by Shootsac are designer inspired and look seriously awesome. Maneuvering on the go is easier and access to an added lense is 1 less zip to worry too.

Though I didn’t win the Shootsac contest. Jenny gave surprise gifts to other commendable submissions. Besides me, Nigel also won this gift too.

So what was the gift?

Jenny passed it to me in a brown envelope when I met her at the Got Mojo? seminar. She was planning to post it to me but I saved her a few bucks. 😛

Inside the envelope was a nicely bubble wrapped package containing a silver box, silver CD case and a personal handwritten note from Jenny. Sweet!

Still wondering what was contained in the ribbon-tied box? Well, ta-da!

Photo printouts and CD

It’s hand-picked photographs Jenny took while she was traveling. In the CD, there was high-resolution images which I could use for wallpapers. And seriously, I love the Eiffel Tower shot. Just look at that beam!

To me as Cameranoob, they’re simply beautiful photos. 😀 Thanks, Jenny.

P.S.: This is Jenny.

Hope she doesn’t shoot me when she finds out this was from her blog header. LOL! 😛
