2 years ago, I read this book called "The Secret". It's a book that teaches you about the law of attraction. Law of attraction is about attracting what you want by thinking about it and asking for it from the universe. If you believe that you can attract what you want, then the universe will conspire for you to get it. Part of attracting what you want is creating a vision board. A vision board can be an illustration board, poster, cardboard etc. where you paste cutouts, printouts or drawings of whatever you want to attract.
Last year, I attached a photo of a gondola on my vision board and said to myself that by 2009, I'll be able to ride one. Yipee! I haven't experienced riding a gondola yet but I've seen it from the movies and heard stories about it. A gondola is a traditional rowing boat that serves as the main form of transportation at Venice, Italy. It passes through a body of water that looks like a canal. The canal is sandwiched by beautiful structures in Venice like palaces and churches. What is alien to me is what I usually find beautiful. When I saw the unique architectures of the buildings, churches and houses at Venice through the media, I told myself that I have to see this place. A gondola ride is not cheap. According to a friend, it costs around 80 euros for 40 mins. That's more or less 5,000 php. Wow! Talk about a first world ride! If the gondola guy serenades you, there's an additional fee.
Here's the highlight of my post. Two weeks ago, Singapore Airlines had a seat sale and me and my family bought tickets to Macau. We booked our hotel early. We're going to stay at the Venetian hotel. I decided to browse Venetian's website(Macau branch) and learned that they had gondola rides there! Their gondola rides were of course patterned from that of Italy's. My dream of riding a gondola ride is about to come true! I'm so excited! :P
