Happy 2016! and Secret Santa Squee Post

[hamsterwoman]

First of all, Happy New Year, dear f-list! There is a distressing number of people I know for whom 2015 sucked tremendously, so here's a wish for a much, much better 2016! And those of you who enjoyed a lovely year, may 2016 be even better

Awww a whole lovely post! :DD Thank you so much, Anna! <33 I am very happy that I managed to please - I was, of course, in a way also trying to live up to the Santa parcel you sent me two years back, which was glorious in so many ways.

The lavender tissue paper was a bit of an accident, since I didn't know if I'd need it (real hazy on the Russian Post box sizes, ngl), but in retrospect, it was probably a subconscious choice of color on my part XD I'm very glad to notebook is to your liking! After I bought it I started wondering whether it's a bit much with its distinctly acidic comments and stuff, but phew, good thing you found it funny! ^^

Hah, I knew the hexagonal shape was bound to be a hit :D The lovely paper I used is Finnish in origin, courtesy of theadaze, so the box is megainternational! Somehow the pattern makes me think of Christmas even though it's not explicitly winter motifs or Christmas colors or anything. I'm glad it found its rightful owner and even had a predestined spot on the shelf :D

My time magicks is a great surprise to me as well, but boy, am I grateful for it! Thank you once again, for your warmth and your enthusiasm for this parcel in particular and the Secret Santa project in general. Happy New Year, dear! <3

The parcel was great great GREAT, thank you again! :DDD The edible contents are disappearing at a frankly embarrassing rate, but the non-edible ones will continue to delight me for many days/months/years to come, and make me happy just to look at them every time :)

After I bought it I started wondering whether it's a bit much with its distinctly acidic comments and stuff, but phew, good thing you found it funny! ^^

Oh no, it's definitely the kind of humour I approve of! Especially when it comes to the workplace, even though I do enjoy my work :)

so the box is megainternational!

Oh wow, that makes it even cooler! :DD And the pattern definitely feels holiday-y to me as well -- I think the round circle things make me think of both ornaments in a tree and confetti from New Year hlopushki/Christmas crackers, is why :)

Thank you again -- it really was the perfect way to kick off New Year's Eve right from the morning, and has been helping keep my spirits high (in the face of imminent return to work/fretting about school/getting up early) ever since!
