Thanks Mr Postman!
Now I know why so many people have abandoned snail mail for email.
The wait for the intended receipient to acknowledge receipt can be quite agonizing, especially when compared to how email is so instantaneous. Can even check your Outbox to confirm lor, please!
To add to the agony, I was told my package will take 6-8 days to reach.
That's why, after a week of having given up hope of my package reaching its destination safely (because intended receipient said on the more-than-8th-definitely day that he hasn't received it)
and thinking that it must have been thrown into one of those oceans we learnt about in Geography and eaten up by a whale,
I'm SUPER HAPPY NOW that he has received it!
他奶奶的! If I had known a delay was possible, I would have not written 'Thank you Mr Postman' behind the package but 'Thank you Mr Postman if you delivered this on time! If not, it's time to speed up.'
Anyway, you know what?
The receipient very calmly told me, "WHY NEED TO BE SO HAPPY?" (something like that anyway) when I told him I'm super happy.
Seriously, I've let my parents down. 我没性格。
He has the queen.

You know, I think I still prefer snail mail. *on clocknine* (pirated from one of my kids)
Ok bye.
