my Secret Santa contacted me some time ago and kept me updated the whole time, so i wasn't worried a bit that my gift would not arrive and had plenty of patience. Right before New Year's Eve i've got a notification from the post office that something come to me and is waiting to get picked up, so i wrote to my match at once and rushed there in the beginning of 2015. it turned out to be a hoax though, but i still kept my spirits up.

only two days later i got another notification from the post office, this time I WAS SURE it's THE ONE. since i happen to live at the other side of the city than my post office is located (don't ask), i had got to carry it around the whole evening before i opened it up. to be honest, after some great time we had together (with the package) i didn't even want to open it!

luckily enough, i did. and it exceeded any expectations i could ever have had. inside i found A HAND MADE WOODEN BOX, and what's more it was personalized especially for me! i'm so impressed by all the work that my santa and his dad has done! the box is really beautiful and is a prefect gift for someone who always has a trouble with storing small objects in order :-) and then, i opened the box and found settlers of catan inside!!!! a game that i love playing, wanted for a long time, but never ended up getting. great time ahead! thank you so much, my dear secret santa, for all the work you've put into the gift and for all the joy you brought me! all the best to you in the new year!
