March 4th, 2010the best farewell gift
Our friend who’s leaving for Canada informed us about her farewell party a day before the date. What we knew beforehand was that it was the designated day for friends to see and get some of the stuff that she was selling. We were all naturally unprepared for a parting gift for her. We wanted her gift to be something useful, something light, small and easy to pack, most of all, it should be something with a personal touch. We found several good ideas from the internet, and we all decided that a video with all the pictures from our parties and important events we shared would be the best. Since one friend J is fond of making collage, we also asked her to make one.
We gave the gifts (video and printed copies of the collage) last night and it was a total success. Our friend liked it, she even said that handmade gifts are really special especially that it includes wonderful memories of our friendship. Though she likes cigarettes and would probably appreciate discount cigars as our gift, our choice was still the best farewell gift she ever had.
