January 6, 20179 yr back at home now, but i don't seem to have gotten any mail from my Secret Santa... and i'm not sure my match has received their package from me either :\
January 10, 20179 yr Still nothing from my secret santa :( Santa, do you know if mine has been sent or not? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
January 11, 20179 yr I haven't received my secret santa card :( yesterday I went to the post office and there wasn't anything. I'm thinking the service isn't really good during the Christmas season before I start thinking my match hasn't sent it.
January 14, 20179 yr I haven't received anything either nor have I heard if my gift has reached its destination :(
January 14, 20179 yr Well, at this point I didn't expect to receive anything. It's already been over a month since I sent out my present, and everyone else too. But yesterday morning I got a very nice surprise at the door - a package from Germany! I was so eager to open it as soon as I found out it was a gift from my Secret Santa. A pretty-looking package; so neatly wrapped, wow! The top part contained a CD of Coldplay live at the Casino de Paris in 2014! It also had the setlist written down in pretty, decorative handwriting (there's a little typo that dates it at 2016 haha) - not to mention the Christmas napkin / serviette it was wrapped in :) Of course it was a really good concert that I just had to upload it to YouTube :p Next, as I was opening the box, I noticed a very interesting smell. It was very perfume-y, soap-y, and bath-y type of smell. Also a bunch of glittery stars came flying out from everything - I actually had to control myself when unpackaging haha. Next was some delicious-looking vegan chocolate omg. I haven't tried it yet, but I'll get back to you on this one! That's not all! There was a miniature fuzzy reindeer, a yellow XYLOBAND from Wembley, an orange LOVE button (one of my favorite colors!), some star confetti, not one but three(!) cards with sweet notes in the back. AND there was A GORGEOUS PICTURE OF GUY :cool:. Wow! There was one other thing, a "Bath Bomb" which was giving off the smell. My match says that I need to put it in my bathtub and I will see a "Coldception" :D It is also vegan and not tested on animals! :) I didn't want to take it out of the package for the picture because it's a little powdery, but I will have to try it in the bathtub one of these days and I'll get back to you! So what is my reaction to all of this?

I was really only expecting a single card but you spoiled me with many, many things! And all the gifts were exactly perfect for me, I couldn't have asked for anything better. This is just one of those rare time where I am entirely 100% satisfied with absolutely everything and even though I was a bit stressed out that day, it really made my day! "You make me feel like I'm alive again!" :D I wanted everyone to see all these gifts because I want them to know what a wonderful, thoughtful, and amazing person you are. I think it's really cool that you've been a Coldplay fan since 2002 and I feel so honored to have you as my Secret Santa match. I hope you Had Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and I wish you an amazing New Year ahead! :heart:

January 18, 20179 yr That looks like a Colour Spectrum. #daretoask Were you looking this colourful too after taking the bath? Haha! When i was done, I looked like a rainbow incarnate ;) No, jk, the bath bomb dissolves in the water completely after a while which leaves the water sort of blue. It doesn't really stick to you but I rinsed myself just to be sure. I did notice some shiny glitter on my skin later on though, which I didn't mind :laughing:
January 27, 20179 yr I just received my gift from @ppporcell (Patricia) all the way from Chile! I was so suprised to get something in the mail today :D Even though all of us live so far away, we all have things in common. It's such an amazing feeling! I love you all, and thank you, thank you, THANK YOU, Patricia!
January 27, 20179 yr Woo Hoo!!! Got my Secret Santa parcel today!! From no other than the country that has more Coldplayers per capita: Germany! Vielen Dank @Stepsi for the awesome Christmas tea straight from the Bremen Christmas market, a lovely card, and the super cute snowflake ornament. I apologize for the inefficiency of the Mexican postal service, but I got it now. :heart::)
February 25, 20179 yr It has been a long time now, so just had to ask because I'm worried it may have gotten lost in the post: @murilotifoski, did you receive the small package ? I hope it arrived !
March 14, 20179 yr I got my gift on the day I was leaving the place where the gift was addressed to. And it's really cool, especially for the confetti (makes me even more excited to see Coldplay live this April). Thanks the3jr! Sorry for the late reply! Glad you enjoyed it! I wish I had put a little more effort into your package (especially compared to the other wonderful things I've seen here) but I'm just grateful that it got in your hands, especially sending internationally in the busy holiday season. I'm more active on Twitter if you wanna interact more, @the3jr :D A side note, I'll (hopefully) post my package details here soon.
