My Goodies (aka Bribe) from Singapore

My hubby flew to Singapore last Monday (2 Mondays ago, I mean) and as he landed, so did some bacteria in my system that has left me sick for almost 2 weeks now. I've been so sick that I'd be in the hospital if not for the appetite I managed to keep (which is very rare when I'm under the weather). To give you an idea of how sick I've been, I'm actually on my second round of antibiotics! Today is actually the first time I'm able to get out of bed and stay up for a long time (boy, my back hurts from all the lying down!).

To those who live alone, you can empathize with the feeling of being sick and alone. That's what happened to me the first few days of being sick. Pathetic but I tried to manage on my own without anyone's care and help until I decided to call my Mom already because it came to a point that I could barely get out of bed. (Thank God for mothers! I swear! No offense to my hubby, but nothing beats a mother's touch.)

While all this is happening, my poor helpless husband is in another country attending a seminar, partying every night (not to his liking, he claims.), calling every minute he can, calling every friend to check on me. I told him to come home only if I get confined. But at the back of my mind I was yearning for his presence.

To cut the long story short, after a looong week, he came home with all these goodies, to make up for his absence (yes bribes, hahaha!), that admittedly got me all excited, and to a certain extent made me glad he left. Hehehe.

And the goodies are:



New movies to enjoy at home!



My favorite instant Singapore dishes.



The best chocolate conconction, ever! HEAVEN!

And last but DEFINITELY not least.....


Yes! My own Canon EOS DSLR!!! Woohoo!

I can't wait to get well and start enjoying these goodies!!! Getting sick isn't so bad after all. Hehehe.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to take my drugs now. Oh, of course I'm glad I'm starting to feel better and that my hubby is back home. ;-)
