Looking For A Place To Be

This is not my usual Monday morning when I normally struggle to get up so early for work.  But I didn’t need to do this today since the schools are having winter break the whole week through, and so do I as a teacher.  I woke a little late for breakfast and hubby was already out for work.  It’s the usual scenario of being alone when I’m free from work and hubby’s not.  But I’ve been used to it since the day we were together.  Lonely?  Not that I could remember feeling this way.  Alone and loneliness are two different words.  I’m just alone but not lonely.  As far as I am concerned, there is one thing that I can entertain myself with when I am alone.  I bet you know what it is.  I’m referring to my PC, my all day companion at home.

It is also during these times that I wish I could be somewhere for a short holiday.  I’m free from work for a week, yet I couldn’t take myself anywhere because one of us is working.  However, planning for a vacation ahead of time is absolutely a good idea.  Maybe both of us can get away from our job on the next holiday.  Darn, if only I could get away myself now, I would fly to any Walt Disney World.  Gosh!  I didn’t know anyone from anywhere can purchase Disney World Tickets in the internet nowadays.  But it’s never too late to discover something.  This is one information that could help me plan my next vacation.  Imagine standing in a long qeueu just to buy your ticket for a show or something.  Hubby and I experienced it when we went to Madame Tussauds.  Never again!

You maybe wondering why I want to go to Walt Disney World when in fact I don’t have kids.  Hohoo!  Is this place for kids only?  I want to see Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom Park, too.  Nonetheless, the Arabian Nights Dinner Show must be an enthralling experience.  I can’t wait for the next trip, I must check for Disney World Tickets now while I’m alone with my computer.  I will surprise hubby with this when he gets home.  Who knows, we may celebrate our 8th Wedding Anniversary with the Simpsons or the Sea World’s animal celebrity, Shamu, the whale.
