Samurai!

Recently, I realized that when I look for gifts for the husband, they are not available. Why? Because they are limited releases and the only chance to snag them would be at a high mark-up from resellers. It is sooo frustrating. Jordans, NMDs, hats, jerseys and even watches.

So, when this handsome (or beauty), Seiko Prospex SRPB09 - Samurai,  came up while I was on the hubby gift hunt and it just so happened it was being released at the same time, I wasted no time. I immediately went on an online hunt for this product. I was getting deflated when it was turning up on the reseller market already. I did snag one from here: River Edge Jewlers. The good news, no state tax (from where I am at)! And it seemed like a legitimate and an authorized seller. I am so happy I didn't have to resort to the gray market to be able to purchase one. It seems that the demand in Asia and my home country was driving the price up. I managed to get it at a lower price than the reseller I got in touch with. Luckily, it didn't seem like this was as popular here so I had less competition and plenty of chances to buy it. Also, I don't think there would be fakes in the market already for a model that was just released. It made it easier buying it online.

 

 

It's supposed to be an anniversary gift but I couldn't contain my excitement so I ended up showing it to him anyway. It was a success of course! He loved it! Big points for the wifey! :)

Love Language: Words of Affirmation on Valentine's

Another day has begun.
Hearts, roses, chocolates are plenty.
Valentine's day is in full swing.
You watch the day go by
while I sleep and say bye-bye.


A new day kicks in.
It is raining and maybe rightly so.
My heart is crying with longing.
And yet thankful of the chance to have someone
to spend forever with.

Your day ends and you say your prayers.
You say Happy Valentine's.
while I say Good night!
The moon rises in your sky
While the sun is hiding in this Texan sky.

Someday time and distance will be conquered
And we can look forward to be
really together
But until that time we strive our best
in this quest
to express our love
with what we have
and any which way we got.
As they say, distance means little
When someone means so much
So today, let me say,

I love you always and everyday.

To the moon and back

Happy Valentine's Day!

Someday soon.

Yours forever,

the New Mrs.
