I love you, Sabado!

Can't wait for Saturday!!! Paul's coming home from Singapore. He's been away for almost two months! I missed him, sobra!
Mr. Antukin :)
Well, aside from the excitement of seeing him again, I have a second reason for anticipating Saturday. Hehe My very own iPhone is also arriving!

It's actually a gift from my brother, Nel, who's based in Perth, Australia. He and his wife, Trix, are in Singapore for a 5-day vacation and he met up with Paul last Sunday to give the phone, so he won't be spending for the shipment costs if he sends it from Perth to Manila. I'm so excited! The unit is actually a hand-me-down, Nel's been using it for more than a year, I think. He's renewing his line this September and will get an iPhone 4, so the old model's gonna be mine. Even though it's just a hand-me-down, it's going to be special to me because it's an iPhone, for crying out loud. :) And more than that, it would have a sentimental value because it would somehow make me feel more connected to Nel. You see, I (and the rest of the family) haven't seen him for like 13 years. Hopefully, he could go visit home this Christmas. We miss him so much.

Aside from the iPhone, I'm also giddy like a school girl for the other pasalubong I'll be getting. Paul said he bought a Charles & Keith bag for me (yay!), a really big Piglet stuffed toy and a pair of Nike shoes. Paul's homecoming is more than enough for me, but the material gifts that come with him won't hurt, of course. Haha :) Can't wait! Four days to go!
