Best Birthday Present Ever
My dearest sister (that's us in the photo like eons ago) on the left gave me the best birthday present ever. On Thursday morning I was chatting online with her and saying how depressed I was at the thought of spending my 31st birthday alone in HK on Sat (i.e. today). She, bless her, then said she'd buy a ticket for me to go back. And she did it there and then.
And so I found myself on a Jetstar flight last night on my way back to Singapore. I touched down at 12.20am and got home at 1am. I was then up at 7am, and then found myself at Tanjong Beach at 9am paddling with my Singapore teammates.
Anyway, I'm having a swell time at home and enjoying my 1.5 hours day in Singapore. I fly back tomorrow! This is the most impromptu trip I've ever made.
It's so nice to be home! And a big THANK YOU to my dearest sister - whom I'm not even getting to see 'cos she lives in Sydney!
Big hugs to her!
