This was the first time I participated in the Reddit Secret Sante gift exchanges and was quite hyped. However, when we get the notice from the post office that there is something to pick up, we were sure it was something else (a document) we were waiting for, especially as it was marked as "a letter" rather than a parcel. So it came as a great surprise! :)

I was so impatient that opened the box right in the bus stop. My Secret Santa was very nice to include a handwritten (and handmade) card with Christmas wishes (nice touch :) ), and each item was nicely wrapped (if you read this, you did a great job!).

The gifts were excellent, the Santa knew me well. :) The book is funny and informative, good food for my scientific curiosity.

The notebook is top-notch, with a TARDIS as cover! It is so nice that I will probably keep it as a souvenir, although being a time-traveler myself can use it for memorable notes. :D

And finally, the memory stick in the form of penguins was right on the spot, as I was going to buy a new USB recently, but was lazy to visit the electronic shop nearby. I believe, the penguin (the symbol of Linux) was chosen as I mentioned r/Linux in my description. So either Santa is fellow Linux user or S.-a did some research beforehand or just lucky guess, which probably is even better. As said, this was right on a spot choice.

Overall, the exchange was a very pleasant experience, I am looking forward to the next year :D

Thanks for organizers and especially my Secret S-a from the UK :) Thanks!
