it's april!
april beckons! in hardly a blink of an eye a quarter year has flitted by us. time moves too fast. not that i feel aged - but sometimes i get the inkling that i've lost my edge, that the four years of toiling as a mundane corporate soldier has rendered me as plain as the next jane. i'm no longer nocturnal, a side of me i really miss. i'm less spontaneous. i'm fixed to a routine.
oh! but april's gonna be different. travelling will shake away the everyday insipidness that i so despise. i'm running out of the country for a grand total of three times. wheeeeeee!
popping into singapore very quickly for phantom of the opera next weekend with two best buddies. it's my first real phantom experience - and it'll be totally awesome! robarto (who introduced me to the lovely music of this play) - i'll be thinking of you!! hehe.
second week of april will see me going water-berserk in chiang mai - also a quick trip north to check out how truly crazy songkran festival is. i heard you get so wet so often, that it's no longer fun or funny. haha! we'll see. made a difficult decision - my dslr stays at home :( will be carrying a point and shoot idiot camera instead. ah well, all in the name of safety (grrr). picture taking will be frustrating but the plus point is this - for once, i can truly be travelling light!
the last week of april - the much anticipated trip to nepal. i burnt a deep hole in my pocket for this and it'll take me a good four to six months to repay my dad the cash, but i'm unfazed. it's nepal, and it'll be worth it. even though it's a packaged tour (and we all know how i feel about packaged tours). i haven't travelled with my parents in ages, so it'll be good quality time spent together.
so - that's how my april looks :) i promise pictures and travelogues, stories and rambling accounts!
took a quick peep out of the window - it's a beautiful rainy day! am off to enjoy it, i feel like feeding people today so am gonna be cookin for my bunch of friends.
signing off with love and peace.

your april sounds so much funner than my april - NEPALLL!
Llama milk!
(am i matching the beverage with the country correctly?)
i've never asked you a souvenir from any of your travels - but now i am - i want something from nepal! something non-factory produced (except if its a CD of nepalese music) and which will not harbour spirits or bad luck!
I want!
In exchange I'll get you a genie lamp from bahrain :)
