Just Four

.:: One ::.

Dearest pals from Malaysia dropped by for a three day holiday last weekend. I am quite confident to say that they had a great time from sightseeing the night safari, shopping (3 times at Orchard road!), and food at Newton Circus.

*Sheer, we popped open that bottle of Italian sweet red wine and it was delicious. Bubbly and sweet. The girls insisted that I send over the name. Will definitely hunt down more bottles.

.:: Two ::.

*Gallant and I are going to Europe! Yup, the decision to go has been confirmed and we are now making plans. Tentatively, we start at Athens, then Vienna, Rome, Paris, Nice and end at Barcelona. Two or three weeks of European sights and cultures come May 2007.

So don't you dare be asking me out for fancy dinner from now till May. I got to be a scrooge to save up for the trip!

.:: Three ::.

And as a little thank you gift for his birthday surprise, *Gallant bought me an iPod nano. Classic silver casing and a little extra radio device so I can tune into stations when I am at the gym (previously, I have been complaining about watching silent telly at the gym as you need an FM tuner to get sound).

Wonderfully thoughtful as this was something I could really use. Best part of all? *Gallant selected songs and albums that he thought I would enjoy and downloaded them into the iPod.

Presentation was very sweet too! He bought another one of those hand puppets from Takashimaya (just like where Dragon came from). This one is a top hat with a white rabbit in it. We found this amusing as we thoroughly enjoyed 'The Prestige'.

The iPod was tucked inside the rabbit. Talk about a little sweet magic and romance.

My first summit will be running on Monday! Very excited. Now, I must hurry and write my chairman's speech (the lazy man!) and memorize the 53 man guest list.

I hope it runs smoothly and everyone has a great time.
