As you all probably know... Noodle Boy is back... in the flesh! Say goodbye to sleepless Skype nights!

First question, how is he? He says he's happy to be back home and now, he is in good hands. ;) It sure seems so because he is looking as great as ever and of course, he's with me all the time. LOL!

So what did this dashing young man get me for Christmas? Memories. Literally. And then some...

Okay, so remember when I gave up Maki and cried a bucket of tears? Well, he felt bad seeing me all broken and all so he said I should just get a replacement. He helped me decide on getting a Macbook Aluminum Unibody instead. We call him "Mickey"... and what do you expect from a laptop with 2.4ghz processor, 2gb RAM, 250gb HD, and NVIDIA 9400 graphics? Well, it's pretty much what I need... plus it's a Mac running on Snow Leopard!

I don't have to preach about Mac again because Noodle Boy is rolling his eyes already. Initially, I thought about getting the Macbook Pro but seeing the benchmarks on Mickey, getting him was a great buy and it was just practical.

Do I really need to spend more on an MBP when an Alum MB is enough? I could but I used my head. As a reward, Cariño Mio offered to bump up the memory to 4gb so I could "unleash my creativity", that is according to him.

Watch the video below to watch us upgrade Mickey's RAM:

Ta-da! Mickey's just as fast as Maki now (see below: left for Maki, right for Mickey) but the big bonus is that I can take Mickey anywhere! Weeee!

And now, a pic of Mickey and Nadia (Noodle Boy's special edition HP) below.

Don't they look lovely together, too? Tee hee...

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!!!

His true present is actually the APPLE MAGIC MOUSE. Magic what? Yeah, you read it right. A MOUSE! But it's not just an ordinary computer mouse. Why? Because it's a Mac. *bleh*

Meet The world's first Multi-Touch mouse. Suddenly, everything clicks. And swipes. And scrolls.

I really can't even begin to describe how beautiful the mouse is. I've never been this enamored with a computer accessory *ever*. It's so ________ (insert adjective here). I wonder how many Clicks Per Second I can do with this. Gonna try that out when I can. Any challengers? LOL.

It's confirmed. My boif is such a geek. But he's the sweetest geek of all.

Noodle Boy also managed to bring me a lot of other goodies, too... like my very first Zippo. Buying an expensive lighter didn't ever cross my mind, but I don't mind owning one now. It looks beautiful and I got his message clear alright. It's emblazoned right there! Time to Google those neat Zippo tricks and learn them for the kicks. ;)

He also got me some other intimate stuffs and most notably these gorgeous butterfly amethyst earrings I have on me now. Awww... aren't they totally kawaii?

It's so ME.

Noodle Boy, you're the best! Gracias, cariño. I really couldn't ask for more... ^_^ Especially because all I ever want for Christmas is here with me now.

I don't want a lot for Christmas... There is just one thing I need. I don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree. I just want you for my own more than you could ever know. Make my wish come true. All I want for Christmas is... You... Cariño Mio.

Hope your Holidays would be as HAPPY as mine!!!
