Today I feel very useful. I woke up early to march down to Korea Embassy to apply for our Visa but decided to head down to Toa Payoh first to photocopy all our original documents. When I reach the embassy, I was surprised to see only 3 to 4 people inside. And the application was over after submitting the documents in less than hour. Whew that was easy. Processing was 4 days so I have to go back on the 11th to collect our passport with our Visa. I was feeling hungry so I head down to McDonalds for breakfast. I miss being up early and having breakfast :p Waited for Dadi until lunch time so we can have lunch together and to get the free Nescafe Dolce Gusto coffee maker and again to shop a winter jacket for our little princess. Went home after and so happy because all is getting well for our travel plans. Thank you Lord for this blessing!
