Well, I’d like to talk about a small but embarrassing mistake I made a few days ago. Um, I have two friends who were born on the same day, so we usually celebrate their birthday together. One of them is a big foodie, and a huge fan of green tea flavored stuff. And the other girl is a bookworm. She always has her head in all kinds of novels. Anyway, I spent a whole afternoon shopping for their gifts. I bought a whole bag of snacks, like puddings, cupcakes, instant milk tea, and something like that, and of course all of them are green tea flavored.
And as for the other gift, I remembered the other day, she mentioned that the lamp on her nightstand stopped working, so I thought it would be a good idea to buy her a new one. After that, I went to the customer service center to have them wrapped, but unfortunately they only have one kind of gift wrap left. And the worst part was, the two boxes were about the same size and weight, so it’s a little difficult to tell these two gifts apart. And that actually explains why I made the mistake I mentioned earlier. I sent each gift to the wrong person, and I didn’t realize it until one of them came up to me the next day, asking me why on earth I would buy her a full box of snacks. I felt so embarrassing. I guess the service center and I should share the blame for this.
