hi it's me

Hi.  I live in glorious suburbia with my husband and 2 little munchkins.

Some things I like: Swatch watches, black tea, jewelry, wristlet bags and volkswagens.

Some things I don’t link:  mayonnaise, Hummers, cold weather and frosted hair.

  1. Hi Maya,

    You may not remember me but we both went to RMWC class of 1995. I’m the class secretary for our class and you’re on my MIA list. I couldn’t find an email address for you on your blog (I only found your blog looking for something else and you had referenced RMWC) so I hope you get this. Congrats on Priya. She is adorable. I would love to include this news and perhaps a picture in our next class notes. Please send me your contact info and I’ll add you to my email list. I don’t know how involved you’ve been but there is a large group of alumnae fighting the school right now because of the coed issue – the school would lead you to believe all is rosey and that’s not really the case.

    No matter what I’d love to get you back on my email list for class stuff. We also have our own Yahoo group that you might want to join (and upload photos if you’re interested). Let me know and I’ll send you the link.

    Take care and I hope to hear from you soon.
    Jen

    priya’s a cutie as i’ve said before. send me your phone number (again, probably!) & let me know when are good times to call you – i’m finally at a time when i can talk to you on the phone at least!

  10. Hey I wanted to buy WordPress goodies from the store but after adding the shipping costs its becomes damn expensive to get them ship to India. Also, most sizes of T-shirts are out of stock. Can we have a store for Asia based from India :) ?
    Also, how do I get WordPress stickers for my lappy?

    Comment by Nishit Shah | May 1, 2008

  11. Nothing we can do about shipping costs and no plans to have an Asia store right now. If you send me your mailing address I can mail you some stickers.

  12. plz remove the address :) didn’t have ur email to mail you privately ..

  14. I read that if someone contacted you that you could send them wordpress stickers, are you still doing this? And if so, how can I go about getting some? And if not, thanks anyways.

  15. Hi! i read that you are giving some wordpress stickers away if we contact you? I was wondering if it’s possible for me to get some? Hope to hear from you soon, thanks! If not, it’s okay

    Comment by Christine Chan | June 17, 2008

  16. Hello! I’m interested in getting some WordPress schwag if you’re still able to send some. If not, that’s cool. But if so, that’d be really cool! [=

    I appreaciate it either way.

  17. Hi Maya

    It’s a good thing that I’m a smart girl because you told me to contact you via your blog without telling me the url :-)
    As I don’t see any contact form I’ll just use this instead, although I’m not really sure what you want to know. I’m not even sure why Matt is coming to Berlin but I’m up for anything really. I don’t really want to post my e-mail here so I will send it to you via yours.

  22. Maya, I got the package with the WordPress Goddies today, I was so excited to see what was inside, Actually i was surprized to see the pencils there, I was not expecting it because of the distance (it almsost travelled half the world)

    Thanks for the New year gift, Any ideas on how to get a job at WordPress..? Do you take in freshers there..? Please advice and thanks for the goddies, Its too much for one person, I need to think on how to put it into good use.. lol

  23. hi maya,

    i know everyone and their mom comments your blog about wordpress stuff, but i don’t think we can help it! it’s the coolest stuff ever!! you must be SWAMPED with requests. shamelessly though, i wanted to check if you had any leftover though, because i would really like some :) it’s okay if you don’t though i totally understand. if you get any in the future, let me know, or if there’s a way i can buy it somewhere, i’d like to know that as well!

    thanks and have an awesome day :)

  31. Hi Maya! Internet was looking for WordPress stickers for my Macbook, because I recently started a new blog under this CMS and I would buy a pack of stickers to paste all on my laptop. If you are so kind, could you tell me where I can buy? I searched google and it took me some reference to your blog:)
    Thanks

    Comment by Maya | August 27, 2009
