Where is Vannie?

I am back.

I am sure some of you may have been wondering why I haven’t updated in a while; for those who do know, well I am back. Those who have no clue - well, I am back from Singapore. It was a 4 night 3 days vacation in the Lion City.

We visited Little India, China Town, we rode the cable car to Sentosa Island, we went to Underwater World, we saw the pink (who knew there were fab pink dolphins!? not me…) dolphin show, we went around Orchard road (got nothing:’( except for pasalubongs) and of course we went up the head of their national symbol - the Merlion. (Sentosa not in the Merlion Park)

It was fun but super tiring, by the second day Ozzy finally got his wish - he was ready to go home. He got sick and told me he wanted to “uli na” saying he misses his yaya and the “sabaw“.

But all in all it was a great trip. Singapore is clean and a very disciplined country. I envy the wide, clean and green city. People are courteous and nice; I hope to have stayed longer though - but that can wait when Oz is a little bigger.

Here’s a sneak peak of the Dolphin Show. More stories to follow, for now, I need to get back to work and look for some tv furniture and tv set for our room.

TGIF!

..sorry for the predictable title; I really can’t think of any except that I am truly thankful its Friday. Have anyone noticed how days zoom by so fast lately!? Sometimes its a good thing, other times not.

For now I must say it is not a good thing that days fly by quickly - that only means I have less time on my hands to finish the gazillion things on my list! In terms of work, I need to finish the tax computation (that I needed to have finished yesterday), I need to order stuff, fill up forms for BIR and straighten out some cost of sales.

For my personal agenda, I need to buy groceries and do some errands before the trip. Not to mention, I have classes for Joshua’s tomorrow morning, coffee date with my friends in the afternoon and house blessing by night.

I guess I won’t be needing those diet pills after all. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I will try to still update but if not - be back online on Thursday!
