Restless

In contrast to the little bee inside me,I’ve been rather restless. Not writing the blog much at all. First it was the tiresome thought of having to grapple with a new blog template. (Why did I think I had to migrate to WordPress?) Then, there was just sheer lethargy. Not that I had that much to sap my energies. Just probably pure slothfulness in action.

Today marks the last day of 28 days in Macau. I’m not elated to leave as I had anticipated when I first arrived. In fact, I am eager to get back here next Thursday to be with Roy. To discover the hidden treasures Macau expertly hides from pit-stop tourists. To shop!

Admittedly, I didn’t think much of Macau until I discovered the shopping bargains she offers. Call me a typical Singaporean or woman – whatever. But Macau is truly a WONDERFUL place for shopping! Well, not for everything, but at least what I’m interested in right now – baby clothes! I chanced upon the wonderful wealth of branded factory overruns that day I took Bart and Renita out to Senado Square. Oh joy of joys! I didn’t go bonkers with shopping but I did have a really swell time. And I think that very encounter with the warehouse outlets was the turning point in my attitude towards Macau. I came home that night with my mini loot and promptly added to my MSN and FB that “I am ALREADY in love with Macau.”

Yes, the power of shopping indeed.
