Homeward Bound

Finally, after a week of hospitality from dear old bro (yes yes yes! i knew getting him presents would come in useful one day!), i am flying back to singapore later in the day. I bet he is really looking forward to sending me off at the airport too. Ah, like mom said, 'if he treated you dinner at the crown, you'd know its time to leave'. *chuckles* But to be fair, bro has been an exemplary host in the last couple of day and i can't say thank you enough.

It's really cold here today and i think i got all my shopping done. Not that i have much money to spend on shopping except for some of the stuff which other people had asked me to buy for them. Hardly bought anything for myself and i guess i have not thought of this trip as anything but a 'business' trip, so not geared to buying gifts home *hide under covers*. Felt a little bad though about not getting some things for close friends and colleagues but then, i seriously didn't even have a single aussie cent on me when i touched down (well, no time to go exchange money) and it is sort of more like going 'home' than going for a 'trip'. In any case, if anyone needs anything, you all can still sms me in the next... 5 hours or so, or while i am at duty free in the airport. *grins*

Hmm... *excuse mode off*

I really ought to get a couple bags of those nougat thingies for emergency gifts at the airport duty-free shops later.
