When a friend of mine tagged me that he will send his iPhone 6 to me as a gift. There is no days and nights not thinking about it for it is a dream come true. Two days ago. That friend send me a message telling me that he will not gonna send the iPhone, instead he will ask his friend to hand carry it and deliver it for me. He explained that it is costly to send a gadget and it's a wooping $100. He cannot afford such thing for he still have bills to pay. Which I understand. The incitement I felt the moment he tagged me is gone. And I feel sad about it. But hey' what can I do? For this is only a gift for me. Well I guess I need to wait until I have it. How can you handle things like this? Are you be glad or sad?

Nope. He tagged me to give the iPhone to me. He said that it will take long for to receive it because he need to transfer his files to his new iPhone. He also said that he will send it to me by sunday so I waited. Then on tuesday he told me this.

Thanks Ida. Well, I guess most of you here feel glad about it. Then I should be glad as well and wait until it arrives.

@JustBhem I don't think I'd feel sad. I guess still excited to get the item.

That is expensive to send and sometimes it is unsure if it'll arrive safely. when will his friend get to hand deliver to you?

Of course i will initially be sad . But i will recover fast because anyway it's a gift and he still have the right to choose on how she can send it without spending much . Your friend is so generous to give you an iPhone 6 . Mayaman (rich) .

I will still be glad and thankful because surely it will be given to me and it is safer if it will be handcarried than if it is sent through couriers. I might just need to wait a little longer, but that is not a problem with me.
