What's The Value Of Your Gift?

Yesterday a lady walk into our shop holding 1 of our merchandise in her hand. After a while, she ask me what is the price of a particular item on the table. Well, the item that she enquired is the same as the 1 she is holding.

What does a gift means to you?

If you receive a LV wallet from Brad, would you be over the moon? But if you receive a $20 wallet from Tom, would you be looking at the rubbish bin?

What are you thinking of when you receive a gift? A LV wallet means Brad adore you? A monogram wallet means he got chic taste? Or he feel you deserve a LV?

Or did you ever consider why is Tom giving you a $20 wallet? Is he a miser? Or is it that he can only spare $20 out of his expenses? Or he feel that you may like this black colour multi-compartment wallet, a practical item? Or he feel you only deserve a $20 wallet?


Well, sometime it could really difficult to give a present for someone. Give your collegue a smaller gift, he may gossip you. Give him a bigger gift, you may also get gossip from someone else. Get him a discounted item, he may say you are cheap.

Sometime I wonder what is the VALUE of a gift. Is it the PRICE or the THOUGHT?

Road To Oscar

Oh Great!!!

A adaption film from Hong Kong had won an Oscar. Alan Mak and Andrew Lau's Internal Affair had won Martin Scorese, The Departed, an Oscar. I suppose the Hong Kong creators and team must be over the moon. Hong Kong had lots of great creators. Directors. Producers. Scritwriters. Actors. Stuntmen. Choroegraphers. etc etc... . And fantastic films.

Oh, I feel pity for Mr Dicaprio. He had 2 wonderful films in The Departed and Blood Diamonds, yet he did win the best actor award. His past film in Aviator also miss out on the award. Gosh. Well, when is his turn? Maybe ee had to wait for his award, just like Andy Lau who had finally capture his Best Actor Award after so many years.
