Home Sweet home

Hello my fellow readers...
THis happy blogger is safe in her nest enjoying her holidays....its so nice to be loved.
I told u that I will be chronicling my days in the pearl of the Indian ocean, so this is the first installment.
Day before yesterday
Wednesday night both Kavs and I got hardly any sleep. We watched the premiere of Australia in Palace Nouva, Rundle Street. I enjoyed it. The views of Australia were breath taking. However the movie was a bit too ling and it seemed like it was two stories merged. But as per usual Hugh Jackman was to die for...and Nicole Kidman was just lovely. What i noticed most was that the makeup was very clear. Esp on closeups. It was funny to see the pink eyeliner and mascara so visibly.
We didnt go out for dinner since K had to rush home and pack (she hadnt even started)...so i had dinner in Sameera's place.
Did my laundry, Weighed my bags (and the weighing scale kept scaring me by giving me different readings everytime)....completly cleared my room and then slept.
GOt up, left my food in K's kitched (bless her soul..most of my stuff is in her place..and she didnt even complain). Rushed to the bank, rushed bck, left my last bag of my things in Ash's room, changed, got into the taxi...and headed off to Adelaide Airport.
And if you think that's long wait till i detail my flight. JK. I sat next to this charming Pole. Such a flirt. He called me an "exotic woman", and a "sweet woman"...he even kissed my hand. LOL. So embrassing. And then he winked at me!!! BUt the best was reserved to the lady sitting on the other side. He kept chatting her up throughout the flight to Singapore.
Slept through my transit hours in Changi. I was that exhausted. The next half is a blur. Coz my head was foggy and i kept dozing off.
The only thing I remember was my stomach making noises...and two and a half men.
The first person to greet me was nanga. She came running and gave me a big hug. SO nice to c her again. THe truth to be told I felt a bit like an outsider in BIA. Maybe it was the atmosphere tht I had to get used to again. Maybe it was the ppl. But i wonder if this is what it's like when we come home after a long time.
Still have to get used to the time difference. Its not funny to feel really sleepy at 6 p.m. Especially when thats the time my entire family is most active.
BUt I'm home. And I believe that God has a lot in store for me this christmas. So I'll keep you posted.
Till then...continue reading :D
