Last Sunday was full of adventure and fun. I just had an interview with one of the telecom companies here in UAE. And, it was actually my first time to go to Dubai, so I really had no idea how to get there. Knowing that I’m bad at geographical location, hubby agreed to go with me, which makes me feel lucky and loved.

Anyway, it was almost a two hour drive to our destination. Well, I will definitely find myself lost if I go alone with all the buildings and the crisscrossing roads and the sand. Good thing, hubby did not leave me until we arrive in the office. Then, I’m alone until the end of the interview and have to go to the nearest mall to wait for hubby again.

At first, I find it fun roaming around the huge mall. After sometime I already feel bored, but I have little choice since I have to wait for hubby. If I only have a gps with me I will decide to go home alone. But, I can’t because I will certainly get lost. We even find ourselves going back and forth, which makes it a lot exciting.

When we get home, I immediately look for affordable gps where I find lots of it including Garmin chirp. I will certainly need to have one in the coming days. One way or the other I need to be independent and go to places by myself. I can’t continually rely on hubby every time I need to go somewhere.

My parents aren’t really a fan of Halloween. That’s the reason me and my siblings haven’t experienced having indoor halloween decorations in our home. But, their mind set changed now that they are old. They wanted my younger siblings, especially the youngest who is in primary school, to have great memories of the Halloween. This, I want to throw my support because I feel it’s a great time for kids to have some fun.

Well, brother is pretty excited about it. He asked if he could start inviting his friends and classmates to come along. I told him to wait until I could finalize everything besides it also needs some preparations. Since this is the first time he will celebrate Halloween, I want to make sure it’s really scary and fun. That’s why I need to find some really creepy decorations to make it more interesting and exciting. Lucky for me I still have some ample time to do some scouting.

According to mom, dad has been feeling lonely for two days already. She isn’t aware of the reason behind it because he’s not saying it. All we can do is to speculate and rationalize. But, it’s really sad to know one of your family member isn’t feeling well, right? I wanted to give him happiness, yet it’s too difficult because I’m miles away from him. And, it is impractical to flight back home because there’s only three weeks left before our flight abroad.

I thought why not just send a gift for no reason? Though it’s not his birthday or any special event, I guess giving him something will lift his mood. I’m sure it doesn’t need an occasion to make someone feel important and remembered. For sure, if it is dad he will love everything given by his kids; whatever it is it will be fine. But, I will make sure I will give him something special.
