  • RIZWAN

    I still remember when I was teacher and end of schooling I got a gift which was photo frame.
  • RIZWAN

    Oh you are very handsome and charming..Really you are more charming with this radish... I don't know what's name of this plant. We have root fruit which looks like this and call Radish...
  • Alice嬛嬛

    is that edible ?😁
  • Austin Lifetime VIP

    @Lesser Panda Haha. That is quite strange.
  • Austin Lifetime VIP

    @Ulfa Haha. “They gave it because they know that I don't like to use it”😝
  • Ulfa

    I think each gift has special meaning. I cant remember all the gift i've ever received. But i have a watch given by my students. I keep n use it up to now. They give it cz they know that i dont like to use it.

    The strangest gift that I have received was a toilet paper roll with a beautiful rug at the Christmas gift exchange. I didn’t figure out why he or she put it in the rug.
  • Marie

    @Austin at that time, I really appreciate this gift because it was a luxury for me to have something like that. I didn't have something to eat everyday. It was a luxury to be invited to a meal when you can't give money in return. It was a funny surprise. People don't care about you when you don't have money. So when you receive something, you feel grateful. When you have money, gifts are less important.

    @Marie Oh then the true gift is the memory of the q tips. That is wonderful.

    @Austin it has been the best gift of my life. It was for Christmas. I was poor and alone. All poor people were invited to the meal. Under the Christmas tree, there were lots of small gift. We didn't expect it was for us. All the gifts were funny, just like mine. We were proud to receive a gift. When you're poor, nobody think about you.
  • Austin Lifetime VIP

    @Marie That doesn't sound like a good gift at all
  • Marie

    Definitely q tips
  • Austin Lifetime VIP

    @Hannah Haha. What is wrong with the color green? I am wearing a green shirt now.

    I received a gift on my 19th birthday. That was a green umbrella that looked like a banana when folded. And I still don't want to use it because of the green color 🙂
