Male Female
I've always been a person who likes practical gifts. I still remember it was my birthday last year. I received a money gift from my mom, and actually, it's a normal thing to give money as gifts in my country. Additionally, my mom is quite a generous person, so she really gave me a gift because of that. She often gives me money gifts on my birthday. At the beginning, in my opinion, I think giving money as a gift is convenient and time-saving because you don't have to choose a gift for someone else. It's not easy, because when you need to find the perfect gift, it's not for a busy person. However, a money gift can buy anything else I want, so I quite like receiving money as a gift. Certainly, some people might think it's impersonal, but I don't feel like that because I just want to receive a gift, any kind of gift. Eventually, I had some feelings about money gifts. Firstly, I was fascinated and surprised by money gifts. The reason why I was surprised when I received money gift from my mom is because it wasn't a small amount. I couldn't believe my mom gave me that much. Secondly, I'm really happy because I had a nice day with my friends. However, I had a great day with my family before I went out with my friends and used my money gift for my favorite things. And in short, those are the reasons why I wanted to talk about it.
