With my travel to Riyadh getting near, I took note of what I need to do:

• secure my OEC (Overseas Employment Certificate)
• e-mail my office mate to enter my data in the Public Relations arrival so there will be no hassle in the airport.  Making sure our hospital liaison officer will be there to pick me up on time
• chat with my husband and give last minute instructions like bringing with him my abaya in the airport
• buy few pairs of office shoes and formal blouses
• text my friends that the  Despedida party 2 days before I will leave will go as planned
• catch up the 1st day of showing of a local movie Hating Kapatid in Greenbelt, Makati
• pick-up the t-shirts asked me to bring over to Riyadh
• pack things and hope that I will not go beyond the 40 kls. baggage allowance
• one to one meeting my children
• check my bank account
• appointment to my favorite salon
• visiting the grave of my Daddy and offering my prayers
• bidding farewell to friends and my loved one

Whew!  I was surprised to find out that I still have a lot of things to do.  Anyway, I enjoyed my vacation and that is all that matters!   I will start planning for my next vacation.  Ciao!
