Would you like some $$$ in your mailbox?

It was just another day for me, coming back from uni, entering my residential building, checking the mailbox and ta-dah.. never did I expect to receive this envelope..from Canada, said the stamp.

Immediately, mit's picture came to mind. She told me she would send me C$ 100, as my belated birthday gift. I thought she was just tickling my ass when she said was going to send through snail mail. I never thought she would. Afterall, common sense taught us humans that we should not send money through post, what more a superior medical student like mit. Her explanation was rather amazing. It was something like this...
"Why should I give the bank $20 just to send you $100. Silly isn't it? I am sure the mail man won't take it. Even if he did, I rather give the money to him than to the bank..."
.
Interesting isn't it? She's never fails to amaze me. Her reasoning can be thought-provoking at times. It certainly made my day. Not so much of the money but her generosity. She wanted me to get a crumpler bag..perhaps she had forgotten where I was - the super boring land with nothing worth buying. Moreover, I am pretty reluctant to spend it. I want to keep the money till the day I can tell her kids, 'Did you know that your mother ....bla bla bla.. '

Thank you woman! Hope you'll do well in your upcoming exams. Kick ass.

With love.
