bits and pieces

Just some newsy news ;) It's not supposed to be the 'rainy' season here - it rains almost everyday! but it's SO HOT almost like summer - ugh. I just saw a car advertised yesterday for 'off peak season' - usual price is SGD$91,000 and 'today only' it's 18,000 less - it was a simple Toyota :O !! We're still working on re-negotiating our rental contract - they want 50% more right now, but are making us hold out, so possibly by end of August they can ask 100% more - augh! My best friend, Trish, is leaving and moving back to California (Sacramento) next month, so our RS Presidency is going to be released and a new one called. AndI was just getting good at being a secretary, too :( Wonder what I'll get next?? Two more of my friends are leaving forever, too -- sad :( This is summer-time - our ward has 77 ladies in the RS and almost 3/4 of them leave Singapore in the summer - either for vacation during june-july-august or permanently - this summer only 10 families will be here for the summer months - it's weird! Daddy might be going to India in a week or two - he doesn't know yet, but I'll probably wait until his old co-worker takes us - She is from there and I'd feel more comfortable -- I'm not as adventurous as daddy :) We still haven't seen SpiderMan3 yet - has anyone? How is it? I hear it is really good. There is a new building going up next door and an apartment renovation going on upstairs and the pounding of the jack-hammers and the whinning of the drills is making me CRAZY! There are 4 new babies in my ward and 2 in my family - yippee! :~) Send me my mail and lots of pictures of 'my babies' ;) please ;) I love you! check again for an update - sometime ;)

Thanks for the update! Crazy... about the car, bummer... about your friends, how annoying...about the noise. We haven't seen Spider Man 3 yet. We have some free movie passes from Christmastime... I think we will hold out and use them on Harry Potter, though.
I updated my blog with some pics and stories! Check it out. I will try to get your mail out today... sorry for the delay. Love you, loo

I saw Spiderman 3 yesterday with Marlon. It was soooooo good!! Best one yet! I saw an interview with Toby Maguire and there's been talk of a 4th and he's not sure if he would do it!! What a bad movie that would be. Spiderman with no Toby! :P
