Flowers From Stephen



Night Macro

My First Flowers

Exactly a week ago today, I received my very first flowers. Quite late for a woman who's 28 years old now, but really, the feeling was so great! My friend Stephen - who lives in Florida ordered the flowers from an online store based here in the Philippines so that the delivery will be quick, the flowers will be fresh, and it will be much cheaper for him. But, these flowers, even though bought at an online store here in the Philippines were very expensive, considering that one can buy the same bouquet 1/4 of the price Stephen had to pay.

He said, "Sometimes the best things are expensive." I agree.

Thanks again for the flowers, Stephen!

    Congratulations on your first flowers!! They are very pretty.

    I hope you buy some flowers from time to time for yourself: we deserve to treat ourselves :)

    By the way, the Cosmopolitan was absolutely delicious. If you've never tasted one, you really should!
