I got home from the usual holiday shuffle from aunt to aunt today to find a package in my PO box so apologies for the few days delay, but a huge HUGE thank you to 
frausorge for the wonderful Secret Santa package and thank you as well to the wonderfully industrious ikel89 for organizing this exchange every year!
Well, my annual tradition is a little late, but here i am logging on faithfully(-ish) once a year(-ish) as usual, to thank Ambyr (@ambyr on dreamwidth) for the gorgeous Secret Santa letter that they sent me.
( Read more...Collapse )First of all, a HUGE apology for Ksenia (who is not on LJ, sorry for my earlier mixup of tagging the wrong person) for my 1 week+ delay from when this parcel was delivered to me posting this. I'm staying in a different location right now after our stricter lockdown orders came down, and not travelling back to my place much. Anyhow, THANK YOU SO MUCH KSENIA FOR YOUR WONDERFUL GIFT THAT CHEERED UP MY DREARY JANUARY. Your gifts were so thoughtful, and downright prescient to the point where I wondered if you were reading Future!Me's mind ;) and your long letter was so wonderful to read (and listen! :D)
To begin with, the card:

First of all, HUGE apologies to my Santa rinkafushi because I am delayed a few days in posting this since I got my package. Between getting sick (the day after I got my flu shot, because the universe loves me like that), and being shuttled from relative to relative for the holiday rush, I only got back to my own place today to take stock and do the proper writeup and thank you email that this parcel deserved. Because you have outdone yourself, my dear Santa, and thank you so so much for taking the time to give this gift for me, I am touched by every part of it :')
( Drumroll plsCollapse )

This week, I received my gift from the lovely Sara/cyanshadow. I have to say, the amount of thought and love put into this gift blew me away, and I can only hope to be as good a Santa next year. Thank you so much Sara, for your thoughtfulness in picking these gifts, and for your long and lovely letter. I was smiling giddily while reading it :D

I haven't finished either book yet, but I am starting my winter vacation tonight, so I'm hoping to roll through both of these by the weekend. In summary, thank you so much for this gift, Anya! I loved unravelling every bit of it, and I'm so touched by the thought you put into this. Also, I really loved how you explained your thought process behind each gift in the letter you sent, it really touched me. Thanks so much for being an awesome Santa, and I hope you have an amazing day and holidays!
*Adele voice* Hello, it's me.
I know I haven't written anything here for the past year basically, but really, I haven't been online much this year except to post pictures and sign off, so yeah. But,today yesterday I received a wonderful Secret Santa parcel from the benevolent Tyrell overlord hamsterwoman in the yearly gift exchange hosted by Santamaster ikel89, so I figured I should pop in and do a real nice thank you with pictures 'n' everything :D
My Santas always catch me at the best time to comfort me, and this one was no different. I was coming home thoroughly out-of-sorts from having been called in to work unexpectedly on my holidays, and what do I get handed right as I walk in through the door but a parcel! I immediately knew it had to be the Secret Santa parcel, because the rest of my expected deliveries for the year had already been done, and imagine my joy when I saw it a cute parcel from none other than Anna! :D
( Cut for image-heavy post full of heartwarmth, food and AWESOME)Collapse )
Thank you so much, Anna, for this wonderful book end to the holiday period! I enjoyed unconvering every part of it. I hope you and your family have a fantastic rest-of-the-holidays! And thank you as well to the great Kay/ikel89 for organizing this!
[Some navel-gazey thoughts on the impending New Year]So that's my 2015 coming to an end. I can't say I'm unhappy to see it end. One can't expect a year to be completely good, but 2015 has been, overall, rather egregiously bad, on a personal front, as well as from the PoV of my close RL friends. Maybe 2016 will be better, I don't know. But 2015 almost went to a point of no return, so I guess it can't get worse, haha. (Famous last words, I know.)
Well, at least I finally managed to quit my second job very recently, so that's a lot of free time I got back into my life in the past month, and it did help to improve my overall mood Also, it gave me a lot more free time to plan out my life, and more time to draw. Emotions are still on a weird rollercoaster ride, where I seem to get weepy over everything, which is still a weird experience, because pre-2014 me was a stolid potato who was very secure about being an emotionally stable person. (But then, pre-2014 me was also a happy-go-lucky-potato who thought things like depression and anger happened to other people, so, uh, famous last words indeed, haha.) Still, here's to a 2016 that will be spent in grinding patiently towards a better and more hopeful situation in life. So, all in all, come at me, New Year. I'm ready for ya.
Hope you all had a happy holidays, and that you enjoyed the short break between work/school, and that you're looking forward to 2016!

I saw the news just as I was about to go on break at work and I pretty much just went outside, sat in a corner and cried and didn't feel like eating. IDK why it feels personal, but it does, it really does.
