This June I am into....

Busy busy period so taking a note of a fellow blogger who keeps things short and sweet... this June I am into:

Wearing: Tights especially fishnet ones. Its winter, its colder but that doesn't mean I have to be wearing pants all the time.

Eating: Home-made chicken congee made with my slow-cooker. A bit of spring onion, plenty of ginger, a dash of soy-sauce and white pepper and away we go!

Listening: Estelle feat Kanye West - catchy; with plenty of hooks to keep one captivated.

Watching: How I met your Mother season 3.. its the new Friends!

Enjoying: Just living. Sometimes one takes things for granted. Its the lil things that matter, really.

Planning: Whether I can afford to go on another holiday in Japan in January09 when I'm going to Europe in Nov08 and trips back home for wedding plans next yr.

Am currently in Sydney and sneaking a breather ...

FREE GIFT!! - Paying it forward

It has been a while and things has just been a complete chaos over the past 2 months - but I have always been reading other peoples blogs which includes one from sourrain.

What it is:

This idea is based on the movie Paying it Forward, if someone does you a good turn, you pay it forward doing three good deeds to three other persons, requesting that they do the same and pass it on. The theory is that the world would be a better person by the good deed power of three.

I will be putting together some ‘care packages’ which will include due to the nature of my work bits and pieces from my work travels around Australia ~ or items which might be Australian in nature e.g. Tim Tam's, postcards, a eucalyptus leaf etc. This is really the least I can do for the support and comments that I have got from my blog (new and old)

How do I participate:

Leave a comment on this post (I will leave this open till month end) and I will pick a minimum of three names to send packages out. If I only get 1 comment - well, you will be the lucky one!

When will I get it?

I will probably be sending this out asap but it depends on where I go over the next 3 months. I have a coupla trips to Sydney coming up as well as to Darwin and of course some nic-nacs from Melbourne. Obviously, if you’re in Australia, the package will probably reach you in a day or two rather than taking up to three months. Yes, this is open to all my readers irregardless of where you live.

I will be sending out items in a a few months *promise!* which means you should receive it about a few weeks after the posting have gone through. Who knows - you might want to open it as a surprise on Christmas morning instead.

What is the catch?

The catch is that upon receiving the package, you promise to do the same on your blog. If you do not have a blog, a token sum donated to my chosen charity would be very much appreciated.

I have questions!!

Then please email mirebella at gmail dot com

Can I specify my gifts?

I am not Santarina so sorry - no! I will try my very best to provide a happy surprise rather than a nasty one.

PS: Please either leave your email address on the comment or email me at the above mentioned email otherwise I will not be able to get in touch with you!
