Hubby’s new car : Anything but Cute!

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

I am so loving this life. For the first time in 10 years, I have a full time driver. I am a full time passenger/navigator. I am loving being a passenger of this amazingly comfortable and funky car! Bagay na bagay kay hubby. It’s his first car so it just has to rock!!! :p

Note: Our car is silver in colour. Perfect for the Summer heat in Dubai. It doesn’t get too hot inside because it reflects out a lot of the heat. COOLIO!

decisions…decisions…

Friday, April 25th, 2008

Since we found out that I was pregnant, we have been bombarded with so much things to decide on:

  • Which doctor will I see in Dubai?
  • Where will I deliver?
  • Will our insurance cover the maternity costs? If not, should we start saving?
  • Which car should we buy? I can’t drive manual anymore so hubby should be the one driving.
  • When do I change my passport for my married name?
  • When should I transfer my visa to husband’s visa?
  • etc. etc. etc.

At first, I actually got stressed with so much decisions that needed to be made that I had to put it aside and relax my mind coz I felt that it was stressing baby too. :(

After a day or two, we took it one at a time… the more urgent ones first.

Since Karen will be due to give birth any time soon, our first worry is transportation. So this week, hubby and I did the research, comparing and decided on which car he will be buying. We initially planned to do this only after the 2nd Quarter of this year but I guess the need is more urgent, so we might be getting it anytime soon!!!

Gosh! It wasn’t easy deciding which car to buy. With costs, long-term situation, fuel efficiency and form to consider it was quite a decision. Plus, it’s hubby’s first car so I really wanted it to be something that he wanted and not mine. It was more than just car spoilers, colour and brand that influenced him to choose THE ONE!

I won’t spoil the surprise and post the picture only when it is already ours! Can’t wait!!!
