It’s the great appliance sale in Singapore and Liv did not let this opportunity pass to grab a gigantic LCD for her family here in the Philippines. I was really having a sidestitch listening to her story how much effort she exerted to get the thing on the plane and bringing it to their house in Marikina.
She had her full name and address written on the LCD box as she had it checked in.
With the new house and new appliances including fine China, she just needs good plasma mounts to complete her royal home.

During our dinner at a mall, Liv asked me if theft and robbery cases in the Philippines have been contained. I asked her why and he replied that she’s just amused the most of the young people she sees on the streets and in the malls have cameras hanged to their necks and the laptops are just about on every table where WiFi access is free.
I told her that crimes here are still the same and maybe kids nowadays are just as daring as the robbers so regardless if they’ve got their cameras by draining their parents’ pockets or having the best laptop deals, they do not care if they are putting their necks on the chopping block. They just wanted to be “in” or just be noticed.

The minute I got home, I just stuffed myself some carbs, washed up then went straight to bed. I told myself I will just snooze for two hours then get up in time for the New Year. The next thing I know, the sunlight is beaming at me through my window. It’s nine o’clock in the morning! I missed the fun. I missed the family prayer. They did not bother waking me up because they knew I was dead tired.
