I already have my tickets...

Awwwww...indeed a fairytale for a traveler like us. What more can you ask for when traveling if you have the destination you wanted, the people who are with the same interest with you and most of all, it came in cheap. I will be ecstatic if that happened to me. Ever since my college years, traveling is a priority for me. I vowed to myself that I will go to 3 new places a year may it be local or international. With that in mind, I find it very fulfilling at the end of the year if that would have happened. So far it did happen. Hopefully it does continue until I grow old. hehehe... As for my Christmas gift, I am still waiting for a promo ticket for Seoul or Bali. hehehe... Have this interesting idea. Why don't we gather other fellow mylotters who loves to travel and plan for an annual travel to wherever that we had agreed upon. Don't you think that is nice? We finally got to meet and make this a community type thing. This will be fun and at the same time beneficial for us... :D

Oh, how wonderful!!! To be planning a vacation that will not only give you a lot of fun but also saving money as well... awesome!!! I'd LOVE to have someone tell me that same thing, especially to Aruba. I've wanted to go to Aruba for decades now, just because I think it's a really cool-sounding place... ah-RU-ba!!! If someone would say to me that they'd like to go with me, I'd be planning, saving, even packing early, just to be ready to go when the time came. LUCKY YOU!!! I'm so happy for you! I'm sure you'll have the money you need when the time comes. Please take lots of photos and share them here with all of us! What will be my own Christmas gift for myself? I couldn't say. Maybe it's making the decision to leave my husband in the Spring. I've given myself enough time to get everything arranged so I don't forget anything. My husband has been emotionally abusive to me for years now and making the decision to leave him has really lightened my heart. I have been staying with him purely for the convenience but I realized that this simply cannot continue. I'm working now on separating my stuff from his stuff and plan on seeing a lawyer in early Spring to draw up a separation agreement, prior to our divorcing. I really can't explain how this decision has lightened my heart! It's wonderful!!!

Hello my dear friend. I am so happy to hear that you have been able to afford to buy a return flight to Aruba. It was a shame that your shoulder surgery cost you more than you had imagined. I know that you are very keen on traveling and you do all you can to make enough on line earnings to go off traveling. It is lovely that you will be able to share you accommodation with some friends of yours. I have booked my flight for 2011 and I am hoping my trip will go ahead. Given the experience of the striking action of the airline that I booked to go to Vancouver on this year it made me nervous in the weeks leading up to my trip. I hope that you will have a magical and wonderful time in sunny Aruba in the beautiful Caribbean Sea. Hug.

Tires or eyeglasses, but I am boring. :D Actually Dearra has to have teeth pulled, both before and after Christmas, so I don't expect we'll be doing a whole lot more than going to my dad's and then maybe a few days in Reno or Las Vegas...

That sounds so good; I love it when things work out like that! You are meant to go that’s sure! We are going away for a week in January within our own country, to the other side to visit family. I’ve been saving my online earnings to pay for my two precious cats to stay in a really nice cattery when we go away so you could say that is my Christmas present because it will nice to go without worrying about them!

My gift for myself... hmm.. I'm thinking of the screen printing machine, or just some books. I won't be traveling yet this year.. maybe/hopefully next year, we'll see. I hope you have a safe and amazing trip!

that's great... i haven't actually get my christmas present yet for this year... but it is OK... i already count my blessings from God everyday as my presents and actually i feel that the One who should be receiving the presents during Christmas is Jesus as we celebrate His birthday... enjoy your trip and have fun... take care and have a nice day...

I am so glad knowing that my friend. At least after the surgery last few months you will have another vacation. You are earning a lot more bigger than me online, that i can see. I can understand because you are introduced to online earnings much earlier. I am really saving every few cents left here for my daily expenses and i am trying to get the very first minimum payout i get in one month posting here at lot. I receive two payments in the prev. Month but i have earned them several months before i reach 20. Yet now i reduced it to 10. Maybe a portable player, hahaha, simple as that my friend, i just took the opportunity looking at the nice places when i got some long distance trip.

I love to travel so the idea of a trip to Aruba sounds wonderful - I hope you have a lovely time! One day hopefully it will be somewhere I will get to visit too! x

So keep up the good vacation in you be good to others as well us to your trip.

that's great! I hope you enjoy your trip. As for me, I haven't buy any gift for myself yet. I wanted to travel, yes! I just don't have the luxury of time and money yet. But I wanted to go outside the country, go to Kuala Lumpur, Singapore or even Hongkong. :)

The best Christmas gift for me would be if my mother was cured of cancer. It effects her life a lot and I love her so much, other than that i would like to take my sister on holiday to Spain. I definately think traveling is a priority.
