Thanks, Prom Date!
Cool, quirky, and geeky gifts you can give your prom date as a thank you.

Time Capsule
Feeling sentimental? Get him a keepsake box but put a little geek twist into it by giving him a goodie flash drive. Flash drives cost around P300-500 depending on storage capacity (check CD-R king for good deals). You can decorate the flash drive using labels and colored markers. Create a folder where you can store a mini-album of prom memories created via Photoshop and a music mix of songs that remind you two of your evening together. It's handy enough for him to be able to use after while pulling double-duty as a cool souvenir.

Case Craze
If you noticed that your date seems to be permanently glued to his iPhone or iPod touch, why not get him a cool case for it? Check out this Darth Vader case (P1,500 at Power Mac Center) or check out Fully Booked's array of decals designed by different artists especially for Apple products produced by Gelaskins (see www.gelaskins.com for design gallery).

The Write Stuff
If your guy is into traveling or hitting the waves, get him a Muni travel journal. These battered leather companions will help him keep track of his travels and of the cool things he sees on the way. Just get him to promise to let you read all about his adventures.
Muni Travel Journal available at Punch Drunk Panda

Patch it Up
Put your artistic skills to good use by getting him a unique gift: personalized patches. Shops that specialize in personalization like Made 4 U in Glorietta or Trinoma have patch embroidery machines that can reproduce your handmade design (price depends on size and color of patch). These patches will make a neat addition to his worn jacket or favorite backpack.

A Good Chap
Give your prom date the gift of relief...from chapped lips that is, with Kiehl's Facial Fuel Anti-Shine Lip Balm for men. Their special blend doesn't leave a sheen (the main reason why guys swear off lip balm despite the discomfort of chapped lips) and the navy blue tube with the airplane circling it screams one hundred percent "for boys only." (P495 at Kiehl's Greenbelt 5)
