Here they are!  6 weeks worth of shopping...

The Shopping Inventory

I love shopping (that could possibly be the understatement of the year).  Yes, I went nuts in the Philippines and Singapore, you can always count on me to find 'shopping opportunities' anywhere.  I've been really good since I got back.  So far I've only bought 1 flower hairband from Equip, and that cost only $4.50.  (under $5 hence that doesn't ( Read more... )

Here is the tip of the shopping iceberg:

Jojo and I decided to "meet in the middle", since he is in Luzon and I am in Mindanao, the "logical" choice would be of course somewhere in Visayas.

It all began with:

• My choice was either go back to Sydney earlier (way too early) or apply for my passport ( Read more... )

Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it.  Haaay maybe you can't have your cake and eat it too after all.

So I was doing some egogoogling today (i.e. searching for your name on Google - because I'm vain) and there it was... my baby.

I carried her for 6 months, nurtured her, loved her, watched her grow and then set her free... my masters degree research project.

I spent countless sleepless nights, traveled to the outer regions of Sydney, overdosed on ( Read more... )

So I was thinking about what to do with my hair next, as I'm not completely happy with it right now.  To help me I decided to look back at what I've done so far.

My storage of digital photos seem to have only begun in 2003, and looking through 5 years worth of photos was an absolute crack up.  I've had some bad looks! Lol.
