My Hunk With A JBoss Tee

It’s really not easy to give a gift to someone who can buy almost anything he wants. Maybe this is one of the reasons why it took me so long to give my baby a Christmas present.

Rey likes collectibles related to Java programming or anything IT. I knew long before that he wanted a JBoss tshirt but didn’t have the time to look for one and you really cannot just find it easily on stores here in Philippines. I doubt if there's at least one. I don't understand why such a craving for this but that’s where I got the idea.

First, I downloaded a logo of this certain open source technology called JBoss. And then put it on a tshirt template. Then I photoshopped just a little and got this layout:


It wasn’t easy to look for a tshirt print shop. Lalo na dito sa Sorsogon. Grrrr. They really won’t do the printing job if it does not reach the minimum number of tshirts for each design. I wanted it especially rubberized pa naman. I asked for Mom’s help to look for someone who will be willing to do this for any price they will want. Luckily, we found one and price is kinda reasonable. We went through long negotiations though. Hehe.

When I got it nicely printed, I also wrote some lovie notes for my baby to make the thoughts count more. All together as my gift, I happily gave it to him early the following day.

January 2 was very late but better late than nothing. Before that he never knew how busy I was secretly preparing this. Hehe. I don't know if he really had an idea this is what I'm going to give him. Hay… At last. Natapos rin. By the way, I gave him 3 pieces and also I gave myself just one, my size ('di yata pwede n wala akong copy). Surprised with that, Rey, even if he looks bagong gising and messy, excitedly wore the shirt and made me immediately take pictures of him. Duh! And here is my hunk with the JBoss tee:

Yeah, looking good. That white tee is an original Hanes one baby! sotyal! Hahaha.

Huy Bhe! pagupit ka na po kasi.
