Every time I recall my travel with friends in Wellington, New Zealand, I cannot help tasting the beautiful sceneries and happy hours once again. Perhaps it is because that was my first travel. For everyone that stands on an unfamiliar land for the first time, he must be attracted by the most natural things. I was no exception. Sunshine stretches its arms to every corner of it on sunny days, appears on the drowsy look of people wandering along the beach; pigeons pick up the crumbs kids dropped on the square with less notice of passersby while some elderly persons whisper with breeze softening this serene picture.

The panorama in Cook Strait urged we took hundreds of photos on the third day when we arrived. And thanks for the powerful lithium batteries, I could keep such beauty in my camera and then share it with my family when back. Aboard the Inter Islander ferry, we had seen the faint hues of the sun and reached the glare of the open sea; our eyes fell closed in anticipation of a new island.

You fail to explain the beauty of Wellington because it is natural. Nestled in the heart of a glorious harbor, Wellington is on the battered sea fringes of the world but equally at the center of it too. A blend of culture approached me since tried to explore its beauty and uniqueness at dark. But for the power failure of our led flashlight, I was convinced that we cannot witness the mystery of it.

Wellington is well planned for the local people. Small architectural gems enhance the mood and space of its areas that are made to be used. A plaque over a bridge by the harbor reads: "It's true you can't live here by chance, you have to do and be, not simply watch or even describe. This is the city of action, the world headquarters of the verb"

Well, the weather in wellington is so affable that you do not really want to get any clues from weather forecast. People say Wellington turns into a true utopia immediately when the sun shines. So you prefer to feel it without knowing whether there is a storm or fierce wind in next minute. Apparently, this is not easy for those who are always dependent on weather forecast every day in their own cities.

Having a bird eye view from the top of Mount Victoria, you find yourself indulging in another perspective on our time. The height connects you with Wellingtonian’s various attitudes and ways of living in this city. Isn’t this magic? Unleashing heavy backpack, we refreshed again by a bottle of plain drink. Just forget all of fatigue and breathe deeply. Impressed by such a moment, I wrote several words on my notebook to remember it. And when comparing the photos I took with those downloaded in my usb device, I began to understand why I can find more from mine-it is because I came here, saw it and had my own understanding of it.

When I was 5 year old, my mother decided me needed some elegance and art. She bought a piano as my birthday and started taking me to the training courses. Although I spent less in playing the piano as time passed by and had slim chance to become a pianist, I still thank my dear mother for this gift and her love. Playing piano is now one of my favorite hobbies.

I am exerting all my wits to choose a right gift to her 50th birthday in this April. As you know, mom's birthday is a perfect time to honor her with a heartfelt gift.

Then buy her one of the latest flashlights, which would be of great help when they go out for an adventure.

3.Rule out obvious blunders. Save time by eliminating the need to search for products she'll never use or appreciate. For example, avoid looking for the electronic products like flash drives if she if she feels hard to accept Newie.

After all, it is mom's birthday, and trying to reinvent the wheel can cause you unnecessary headache when choosing a suitable birthday gift.
4.Use your mom's eyes when choosing her birthday present. Although it's acceptable to choose a gift that falls outside of her normal purchases, don't make this your ultimate mission. Remember that your mom is the one who is supposed to use the gift, not you. Although it can be tempting to buy her an item that she perhaps love, doing so can make you seem pushy.
5.Find clues from past gift-giving occasions. Recall her reactions when receiving gifts that she liked and those that she disliked. Knowing her possible reactions can help you avoid giving her an underwhelming gift. Avoid giving your mom a birthday gift that she has recently received.

Now do you feel a little clear about the ways to choose gifts for your mother? If these cannot give you any help, try to get one by visiting online gifts stores.

Sometimes, smile is the best pill for pain and sorrow, just like the smile on my nieces’ face. Every time I see it, I feel the darkness is gone with its magic. Undoubtedly, I like the twin sisters very much not only because of their pretty looks but also their kindness. It is their birthday next month, and I am going to choose gifts for them. Considering their preferences and distinctive characters and, I have the ideas of my choices. For examples, Bernadette likes music, you can see her listen to the music whenever she is not quite busy; Lesley likes photography, collects excellent photos and videos, and shares them with the whole family. The quality noise canceling headphones absolutely suits Bernadette while an 8G flash memory can be the best gift for Lesley. I can even imagine their joy and excitement around me at this time, how can I stand their scream then?

The next thing I have to do is to find a good online store as I am always too busy to go for the local stores, and it is surely convenient to enjoy purchasing online. Generally speaking, many people have a favorite store or website, and with the advent of online business, almost everything is possible bought online. So I plan to check the great brand of noise canceling headphones with as many as positive reviews for Bernadette in order to make it a satisfactory gift. However, things will become a little bit tough when selecting for Lesley, mainly because I am not familiar with things like flash memory, digital camera, and anything that is relevant to photography. Anyway, I think this problem will be solved after my spending in searching information.

So this is my large plan to my twin nieces Bernadette and Lesley’s birthday. Do you have a plan in your mind before heading out for gifts? Actually, having the following in your mind is enough.

1.The person’s hobbies are the clues of gifts. Almost everyone has one or two hobbies in leisure time – listening to the music, watching movies, or collecting stamps. You can recommend quality suppliers for those collectors or spend in accompanying with them whenever there is a new-released movie.
2.Write down your ideas immediately. Do you have such an experience of having a perfect gift however subsequently forget it? This must be awkward when it is a spark that strikes you all of a sudden.
3.Take personalization into consideration. Have you ever thought of turning the recipient’s funny photo into a pillow, a t-shirt, iphone 3gs cases or a notebook? Nowadays there is the service that turns photos or pictures into any objects that you can name. How fantastic it is! This kind of personalized gifts must be fashionable and can be shown off among people. You can also turn photos of your family into badges, stickers, thanks card, and mug.

Obviously, IT IS EASIER SAID THAN DONE, and not a few persons would like to spend a lot on gift giving. Nevertheless, I am convinced that my gifts will be satisfied after my great effort.

Do you often have the idea of giving gifts to someone but without the idea what to buy? Apparently, it is somewhat awkward, isn’t it? You may be thankful if you have the great capability to choose a perfect gift for each of your loved ones. If fact, things are not so far from achieving as you imagine unless you pay no attention to what I am going to show you below.

1.You are not choosing something for yourself. Obviously, many of us always make such a mistake of choosing a gift he or she likes instead of considering whether the recipient likes it or not. For example, Penny like Hello Kitty very much, anyway it does not mean that a usb flash drive with the pattern Hello Kitty will be appreciated by her friend Sheldon, perhaps a flash drive with characters in Star War could satisfy him. In most of cases, having empathy with the recipient seems a good idea when looking for gifts.
2.Gift choosing is really challenging. So we’d better analyze the recipient from as many aspects as we can, like the age, gender, profession, and preference. Only in this way can you buy the gifts that he or she really needs and likes. What’s more, your creativity enables this process fruitful and the result worthy.
3.Pay more attention in your daily life. Observation yields much and it is helpful for your gift choosing. There must be something a person likes, in that case, he or she stops to look at, watches, and even talk about it with you excitedly. Does she always complain about her earphones recently and want to buy another one? Attention, these are the useful hints for you, and bluetooth headphones will easily solve it.
4.Choose something the person does not know about. As a matter of fact, this can be a try or risk for both of you. If the gift is something unique, it may arouse his or her interest to use, and it is the uniqueness that makes itself valuable. In addition, gizmos are loved by a lot of people, such as a puzzle ball which requires patience and carefulness to win. And the most important thing is that you can enjoy happy hours with the person. Imagine how wonderful it will be. Such special gadgets can be found online at eBay and Amazon, and moreover, they are at low price and popular among youngsters. And the t-shirts with patterns of animals, shapes, or famous characters are the hot cake online. What you need to do is spending several minutes choosing among a wide selection of special item online and find out the right one. Moreover, buying online saves you a lot of money, let you away from the traffic jam and bad air in the street, and brings much convenience.

The suggestions above relieve your stress fro gift choosing to some extent; however, there are still many factors to consider when you choose a gift if you want your gift be appreciated.

I was so surprised to hear for the first time that some people are afraid of big holidays. Guess what? It is because they treat gift giving as an important social activity in every big holiday and they think it is so difficult to choose a gift for it.

To tell you the truth, with the advent of internet, gift choosing is getting easier and easier as we can type the hobby, preference, age, gender of a person in order to get the options of the ideal gifts from a wide selection of gift baskets which may let he or she happy. What’s more, it is very popular to buy electronics products to the recipient, like a USB thumb drive, earphone, or accessories like cell phone battery and iphone cases. Anyway, it is not a rule for gift giving if the person does not like this type of items. In fact, if you want to send something that is not too personal, a gift of food will work well. And when you choose gifts online, you can select from numerous gifts that features quality, color, design and fame. Gifts can be given with confidence and received with satisfaction if it is based on these elements.

Although gift choosing becomes much easier nowadays with the help of Internet, however, there are still some points to remember.

1.Keep the gift simple. Believe me that a simple gift can come across what you want to say to the recipient. It is known that simplicity is beauty and simple gifts are usually more appreciated. Have empathy before you buy the gift; the person will not be thankful if the gift is a complicated gadget. So you’d better choose a gift that everyone could handle without great effort.
2.Do not try to give gifts that you are hardly sure about. Things like clothes, handbags, shoes, perfumes and cosmetics are the hardest gifts to choose. You do not want to feel embarrassed when giving your gift, do you? For example, not every person likes perfumes. There are people who dislike the smell of perfumes while others are particular about the exact fragrance they like. It will not help if you do not know the preference of the person. By contrast, an alternative like an unique and funny key chain perhaps gets a better result and be more appreciated.
3.Consider the age, gender and status of the person in life. An excellent gift should be an item that fits the status of the person in life. For instance, it is not appropriate to give a student an expensive cell phone while a book is more practical.

Gifts can be given with enough confidence only if you make a great effort before buying. When the recipient gets satisfied with the gift, you will definitely feel that your entire endeavor is worthy and fruitful. If you are always wait for the surprise, smile, and satisfaction from the recipient, just try your best to consider a lot when choosing gifts.

Have you ever had no idea when selecting gifts in front of hundreds of items in a shopping mall? Did you feel it is terribly difficult each time? Although you have an idea what to buy, yet you still worry that the gift is not attractive and special enough. If now you are thinking about the gifts you bought in the past, I think this article will be of great help for you to choose some novelties.

1.A 3D puzzle ball will keep your whole family entertained even for hours! Tilt the ball bearing through 360 degrees of puzzles and tracks. If you are addicted to puzzles, this will absolutely be a different ball game for you. No matter what you choose, a small or large one, it asks for a lot of you courage and patience. One more thing, remember to leave the door closed, because I am sure you do not want to be complained about your screams and stomps.
2.A Cube is rather popular all over the world. This puzzle game looks like it is going to be every bit as addictive as both the Rubiks Cube and the Sudoku puzzle! As a wonderful gift, it should delight fans of either, and if you happen to be a fan of both, then this will be like a dream come true. Sudokubes make great stocking fillers for anyone who loves a good brainteaser! Anyway, Sudokube is effectively a Rubik's cube, unlike the cubes being made of different colors; it is made of different numbers. It is with the numbers 1-9 on each side of the cube. You play Sudokube in the same way as you play a Rubik's Cube, but you need to get the numbers aligned on each side as you play in a Sudoku grid. And it is this game that makes you really get the best of both worlds.
3.Special iphone 4 case and iphone 3g cases are really thoughtful gifts, in my opinion, for those iPhone 4 users. Choose the cover that is made of quality plastic. It protects the cell phone against unexpected drop, scratch and other potential damages and keeps from direct contact between your hands and reduce the chance of signal loss. Generally speaking, girls like iphone 4 covers with beautiful designs while boys like cool patterns.
4.Stylish slippers. Some stylish slippers are with unique design and patterns on them. For example, the Cow Slippers are a pair of animal slippers in the shape of cuddly cows. Whether you're relaxing in front of the TV or dying to get out of your high-heeled shoes after a hard day at work, these fun lovely slippers will be waiting at your beck and call. Suppose when you give the slippers, the recipient must make a huge smile on the face. The Cow Slippers will keep toes toasty and calves comfortable.

Nothing is more important than the satisfaction that the recipients tell you, so just try to select a novelty for them.

What gift did you choose for your lover on this Saint Valentine’s Day? In the past years, I bought necklace, handbag, and cell phone; anyway, I want to have a change this year, so I chose a quality 4G thumb drive for my girlfriend Betty. In fact, it is much cheaper than any gift that I bought for her before; however, it will be invaluable between us. We will store our sweet memories in it – our photos, videos, favorite songs, and anything that we still do not know yet. One of my friends said this gift was so creative and he would buy one of the latest usb sticks next year and give it to his girlfriend with their former sweet photos in it. What a surprise it will be!

What did you choose? Apparently, everyone wants the gift to be appreciated. In my opinion, a good gift enables a good start or keeps a stable relationship while the bad one ruins it. Then how to give gifts that are appreciated?

As you know, the process of choosing gifts takes time and idea. Fortunately, there are a few steps that will help you.

1.Watch with your own eyes. If you are always spending a lot of time with the person, you’d better watch what they pick up in stores, watch on TV, talk about or what they look at in the newspaper, in other words, you observe what they usually focus on, which is the source of gifts at another time.
2.Tune in your with your own ears. A more direct way is to ask the person what he or she wants. Then listen to what is said. Generally speaking, it works between close friends; otherwise, situation will become somewhat awkward.
3.Ask someone else about gifts. Ask someone close to the recipient, like his or her best friends or families, for a few gift suggestions. Maybe they will not accompany you to buy the gift, but the suggestion must be helpful for you.
4.Make a list of potential gifts. Before you head out to the shopping mall, why not make a list of potential gifts for the person. It is strongly suggested to search electronic products on the Internet, as online wholesale electronics stores supply products like thumb drive and Bluetooth headset at a low price.
5.Prepare to buy gifts in advance. Having the idea of choosing perfect gifts for your friends and families before you walk out your house. This is homework that should be finished at home in advance.

A gift is so magic that it is more than a present when it is given to recipient. It contains thought, care, feeling, love, and everything that you are want to say. All of these cannot be measured by price, its value depends on how much this gift can convey and how much you care about the recipient. So you do not have to focus on the price of a gift to determine its value.

It is Saint Valentine’s Day again! Have you prepared gifts for your loved ones? Chocolate, jewelry, ring can be good gifts for them, and if you are not well prepared, it is so sweet to give a kiss. When I was young, I was so eager to wait Saint Valentine’s Day and excited to receive the delicious chocolate from the handsome boys, but as time passed, I prefer to get some special objects which keep good memory with them, say a gizmo. Now I would like to share some of my Saint Valentine’s Day gifts with you.

On the Saint Valentine’s Day in 2009, I received Chinese symbol jewelry with Calligraphy from my boyfriend Jason. As you know, calligraphy is an ancient art form China and is still widely practiced in China today. Mainly because it is an abstract art, its characters can be enjoyed and appreciated for the beauty and rhythm of their line, even without knowing how they translate into words. The Chinese symbol jewelry, like rings, necklace pendants, bracelets, key rings, and charms, is artfully simple in its design, yet rich in meaning for the one who gives it and the one who wears it. Jason told me he chose the one from 100 different charms with different patterns which he did not understand, but he thought the meaning is not the important, which is the mystery of it. Thanks to this special gift which gives me another good memory and the chance to learn about the mysterious Chinese culture.

The gift that I received on last Saint Valentine’s Day was a flash memory. He put the flash memory on the desk and left a note that says “I love you”. And this is just the start of my Saint Valentine’s Day. He gave me a 1 day ticket of freedom. He took on all of my responsibilities for a day and sent me off to beach to play. He wanted to say that he appreciated everything that I did for him; what’s more, he understood that my responsibilities were sometimes a burden to me. We drove down to the picturesque beach, took a lot of photos, and shared the music through noise canceling headphones. It was a beautiful day. That was so considerate. What a surprise! I really loved it.

It is Saint Valentine’s Day again! It is time to select a gift for him. Actually, from my point of view, he needs nothing except some stylish iphone 3gs cases. The leather iPhone 3 case he uses does not match him perfectly although it is in good design and quality. I am sure the stylish iphone 3 cases will surprise him anyway. Spending a whole day last weekend, I selected the most appropriate and stylish iphone 3 cases. And this time I will hide them in the room and give him some clues on note to fine. That would be interesting!

Have you prepared your gifts now? And what kind of gifts do you want on this Saint Valentine’s Day?

Which gift you received before is the most unforgettable one for you? Is it a Barbie you got on your 7th birthday party or a ticket for a baseball match that you were longing for? Perhaps it is the unique handmade necklace from your first boyfriend. Such a small gift is worth several dollars in a local shop, however the value of it is not only judged by its price in dollars but by the care and love with which it has been come across. In other words, a gift can be really remembered by its importance instead of its price on the tag. Do you have a hard time when determining which gift to buy? In fact, there are some clues to help you to find a proper gift to the recipient. Let’s see them.

If you paid enough attention to them, you must get the answer right away.
1.Does your recipient usually keep saying, "I want to buy the latest iphone 4 accessories, how do you think of them?", "My flashlight is ready to fall apart." or "My coin purse got lost last week."? ATTENTION! These can be your choices of gift!
2.Do you talk about your favorite band, author, artist, sports team or actor when having a nice sunny afternoon in the serene café at the corner of the street? Which one is his or her favorite? If she is a fan of Justin Bieber, in my opinion, high quality noise cancelling headphones would make her enjoy. If he is a gizmo collector, things will be much easier for you. What you will do is to spend half a day on the internet searching the latest novelties that he has not bought yet. The next thing you do is to wait for his surprising look and scream.
3.When you visit your intended recipient at home, look around and pay attention to what has been there and what is missing. Does the host complain about the poor quality of sofa? Does the vase in the living room match with the motif in the room? Do they apologize for the lack of chairs? Have they decorated in a particular motif? Does the dog have a dog bed? Does the cat have a scratching post? Does the child have a large toy chest? These gifts must be considerate.

These gifts can be spoken out by them unintentionally; nevertheless, it is an unspoken rule about gift giving:"Don't ask the recipient what he or she wants." Generally speaking, it is very impolite to ask people such a bold question. Children, on the contrary, are eager to tell anyone what they are wishing for. Therefore, when asking is out of the question, you’d better choose a gift certificate a place where almost everyone could find at least one thing to please themselves, such as book stores, movie theaters, department stores, gadget catalogues and so on. Although gift certificates seem a little bit generic, recipients are likely to get a satisfactory item.

Each of us began to be a buyer ever since his childhood. Do you still remember the first time when your mommy told you how to buy a lollipop? That successful experience is still unforgettable for me. While some of us are now taking the role of a seller; however, it is not so easy being a successful seller as being a successful buyer. As a buyer, one has to do is to find somewhere supply what we want to buy at a reasonable price; while as a seller, one has to do is to keep the customers in his store and persuade them to buy. Now, think about one of your purchasing experiences, did the seller introduce something else to you when there was not the exact item you wanted to buy?

What a good seller must be able to do is persuading people to buy or support his products or services. All in all, the method is to PERSUADE, without which, one cannot make a career in sales.

As a matter of fact, there are obstacles for being a seller. Therefore, before determining to be a seller, challenges and obstacles must be considered.

1.What is in the mind of customers?
Actually, it is most difficult to make a customer to buy or even change his mind if he insists on an opinion or judgment about a specific product, service, or review. While it is really a piece of cake to let those who have a strong intention to purchase, since the item is the reason that he enters into your store, although the speakers in that store is labeled higher.
2.How to arouse customers’ interest?
Never persuade customers to buy something in your store the minute he enters your store. Starting with HELLO or the compliment of his perfect match in dress leaves a good impression to them and your conversation will be comfortable and natural. Keep getting their attention in different way, as you know, they are not willing to spend time to let you present your persuasive speech.
3.Time constraint
Suppose that there is time constraint when you introduce an exact item, say a pen drive, or persuade customers. Keeping customers focusing on you is surely different from have them interested. Generally speaking, customers like to change their mind if there is not the ideal one for them. Time, at that moment, is so precious for both of you. Stay on an item for a short period and turn to another one if you find customers are not listening to you.
4.Mood and attitude of customer
As a seller, one must consider customers’ state of mind. Watch their face as soon as they enter into your store before you give your smile and utter a single word. For example, no matter how excellent the item is in his wholesale store, he is not suggested to introduce when the customer is with an angry look. As is known that people who has a hard day is unlikely to convince anything.

The solutions to obstacles in sales above have been practiced successfully all over the world. With these useful tips, you will feel easy when on the way of being a seller.
