Ive been away from work for two days, preparing for my trip to Turkey. It's exhausting. I was out from 11-7PM looking for things I need and buying them.
A week ago, my sister and I went for the briefing and we found out a lot of things on what to wear, what to bring and what to do over there. My sister and I bought some dry food like biscuits, cereals, 3-in-1 milk tea and some cup noodles (just in case). We went to my aunt's place to get some words of advice coz she went to Istanbul before. So we talked, together with my cousin and they share their experience with us. We borrowed some coats from them and also a small electric kettle coz apparently most of the hotels do not have electric kettles and I need my daily dose of hot water before I sleep.
After that we went to Sheng Siong to get all the food and we were basically carrying lots of things with only 2 pairs of hands. We took the bus and I should have rented a car.
We went home to deposit all the stuff and went out to Tampines Mall to get watever else we need and at Isetan they have some month-end sale going on and I have been wanting this decorative thing you hang on the handphone for so long and I finally bought for myself one. Here it is:

I love the fact that there's a soccer ball and my name are in girlish colours of sky blue and pink and the alphabets are all "wearing" crowns! The soccer ball just adds an edge to the girlish-ness.
So today we continue on our "expedition" of getting all the extra winter clothings that we need by going to Winter Time at Eastpoint. I spent a lot!!! Just thinking about it makes me sad. So maybe I should put aside those thoughts and look forward to the trip instead.
