Maddie and Us : Well, Hello There! :)

Didn't realize that my last post was December 2009. It feels almost like it was just yesterday, yet almost seven months has gone by already.

Nothing much is happening, Steve and I are still based in Dubai, for more than a year and a half now! Imagine that?! I don't know where all those months went! Well ok, eating, sleeping, shopping, making friends, traveling. But seriously, I've wasted a year and a half of my life doing nothing too!

I think I should have taken a course to study, but what? I think I should have taken the driving lessons, but I can't be bothered with 20 classes! I think I should have seriously applied for work, but I can't travel if that was the case. I guess, you can say that I'm having a "break"...not that my life is stressful. :-p

Summer just started and soon everyone will be gone from city, no one wants to bear the heat for 2 months so everyone flee the country. Also, Ramadan is coming up soon. That means no drinking, eating, chewing, smoking in public from sunrise to sunset.

Steve and I have booked our flights back to Manila for 10 days. Steve's parents will be meeting us in Manila while we're there. Mom will be coming here a few weeks after we leave Manila, and so will Dad. And Ave (friend from college who is now based in NY) is arriving in few days!! So excited!! July is off to a good start!

Oh, my dear friend Tiffy's giving birth on Wednesday! Can't wait to see her and Rafa when I go back, and of course my dear Godson Jacob. :)

Flying back means lots of catching up with family and friends. I always gain weight whenever I go back, who won't when you gobble up everything you miss and everything you can't find in a country you're currently based at.
