Moscow Surprise!

       Two nights ago, my hubby mentioned, " How about Russia for our 4th anniversary?, i have always wanted to go there." I was surprised because i was only thinking and actually asking him that we go to Malaysia and Singapore for the celebration cum honeymoon. My initial reaction? - Of course i uttered a big YES or should i say a HUUUUGE YES. I believe he is pretty serious on planning the trip. His dream was a european tour and i am just lucky i can tag along.
       So now i am working on the assignment he gave me: To get in touch with our russian friend Lena and Roma (whom we met in Pearl Farm in 2008) in Moscow and ask for their assistance and recommendation as to the hotel we will stay in. And as for my self-made assignments, check the chances or perhaps severity of the snow from November 8 to 14 and of course making a list of things to do and  places to visit in that country -  first in the list is the Red Square.
      I am definitely looking forward to this date.

Loving AMAZON.COM

       I am not really an online shopper kind of girl for many reasons, few of those reasons are: (1)   i find products on line expensive; (2) i can't be sure of the quality; (3) it will take time for the products to arrive. Been okey with shopping in the mall from time to time but when my hubby introduced to me AMAZON.Com, everything changed. My husband has been shopping at that site for so long now and i after i knew about it soon i found myself surfing the site and checking things that i would like.  Realization came to me that the prices are just reasonable as when you are shopping in  the mall or scouting for a good discount, the quality is good as i can tell in the two rubber shoes i bought ( sketchers and K.Swiss) and the dresses my husband bought as well.
       What amazes me even more about amazon, is that the products arrive fast.  I can't remember anymore how many times me and my husband shopped at amazon online and surely the items we picked  arrive at the time they were expected and sometimes even earlier. The latest i bought from the site is the Shirley Bassey CD collection which i have been looking for quite sometime now, good thing i was able to find it at AMAZON. I am so happy. Happier that it came early. Oh how nice is it to sing along with her songs while driving, i like it so much!
       There are still a lot of things i can think about  that i would want. But for sure, when i am ready to shop, AMAZON.Com is going to be my first destination. Trust me everything can be found  in that site, as in e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g..
       Now i am thinking to buyyy.........hhhmmmm???? Can you guess what i am thinking? I am thinking of buying my husband a new luggage, since he travels from time to time, and so that i can stuff a lot of shopped items in it when we go visit the US. How about that?
       Happy shopping people!
