My Pink Shoelace

So I’ve made peace with the fact that I have left behind friends at work and that no amount of crying would do me any good. Several people left and they didn’t make as much fuss as I did so I should be getting along too and I think am heading towards the right direction. The main reason I left so suddenly was this Singapore trip, planned for months and applied for months only to have not approved. It’s uhmmm crazy I think.

I arrived in Singapore on the Saturday close to midnight and given that this will be my fourth time visiting the country I’m kinda familiar with the airport and the what not. Passed through immigration well and good, saw my aunt by the exit looking rather bored and hopped on the cab to take us to where were staying. Knowing her and her fascination for all things elegant and in order … am counting on sleeping in yet another 5 star hotel.

It has been a long day … and am rather tiiiiirrreeed. Gotta get some sleep! Will blog again later … see yah folks.

I have just made my intentions of studying in China for 1 semester known to my team lead, well I’ve mentioned it to her before but now I’ve discussed the details with her and am crossing my fingers that the big boss would approve it. Ever since the change in management the new SOM has been nothing but a dummy, or so that’s how I see him. I have mentioned my plans to my auntie as well and I just hope she’d agree to shoulder the tuition fee while I worry about the plane tickets. So am holding down the fort and changed my mind about leaving …. am staying for a while but it won’t be long now. At the moment all I could ever think of is China and calligraphy.

If this plan goes well, MJ will be accompanying me and we’ll head there a week before my class starts to explore the city. Then on my birthday Mitchy would visit … she said she’d celebrate my birthday with me, isn’t that sweet? Am so so so so excited!

I can’t seem to control the itch in my feet its not athlete’s foot mind you but when things like this happen, it only means one thing I want to go somewhere again. So out of the country is what I have in mind but where that I do not know yet. Was looking online for places to visit, am not looking for just a typical beach resort with white sand, or a theme park alone like Disney Land. Am looking for something unique, with a twist and preferably its one with a combination of a theme park and an opera. Too demanding? Well its just wishful thinking.

What I came across was surprisingly more than what I hoped for, there’s a museum … multiple museums that is the one I want to see would be the Hollywood Wax Musuem and they also house the world’s largest antique toy museum. Plus they have this thrills and rides for the kids and for the not so kids but are still young at heart. They also have water rides fit for all ages so long as you know how to swim …lol. There’s also a kart track so anyone has the option to go kart racing. Whew!! And the adventure does not end here, for those who love to explore well they have caves and caverns open for exploration.

Now you must be asking where this place is, its in Branson Missouri, the place is just ideal for that perfect getaway either with friends or with your family. They also offer vacation packages you get to choose from and to date there has been 117, 758 individuals who purchased vacation packages from them.

So next stop? Yeah most definitely.

Filed for VL, got it approved and bought my tickets. This was last June … in a span of a month there has been numerous changes.  And when I say numerous I literally mean numerous, I went with a friend and an office mate and she has been changing her mind every so often due to various reasons.

But at least she made up her mind somewhere around the third week of July to just go through with the trip.

So here are some snapshots of my latest “laag” in the Shopping Capital of Asia – Bangkok, Thailand.
