I think I've lost it, the touch of gift wrapping. I started off full of pride and confidence to create my own wrapper (like I used to do with pretty magazine pages) but just couldn't get it right! I couldn't find any nice images from my collection of Simply Her, Women's Weekly and The Economist, though there were some nice pictures from Marcel's National Geography but I wouldn't want to risk my head.So I moved on to my next self-proclaimed (and unnecessary) creative plan --wrap with Financial Times.
I thought it would make the giver look intellectual. I was wrong. It looked horrible! Finally, I resorted to normal gift wrapper (so I thought)-Ikea wrapper that is very "Siew Khee" with my favourite colours. Disaster!! It was too flimsy and thin that made the presents look cheap! So after 2 hours of exercising forced gift-wrapping flair (while Marcel chills in front of TV, engrossed in Hero), I was sweaty and frustrated. I gave up. 
Moral of the story: BE NORMAL.
