Merry Christmas!!!

Yeah, i'm finally back. n yeah christmas is over, so? haha. anyway, had a very fun n nutty christmas eve n last carolling was fun... or rather, the last two songs were fun. haha.

Christmas eve was really by far the best christmas eve i had. didn't really expect myself to stay out that late actually, had dinner at out of the pan with a bunch of the choir pple. I had yummy waffles. the one i had was called "fresh berries" i think. yum yum... i loved it.. a bit ex though.. $10+++. if u guys are feeling rich u should really try it. it's really very good.

then after dinner we went to esplanade. no idea why we went there anyway, probably cos we didn't know where to head to n what to do. haha. got there, it was super crowded, nothing much we could do except stand there n get caught in snow spray fights. desmond wanted to watch king kong so he kept pushing for it. so in the end, we decided to head to marina square (ms) to watch it anyway. while we were walking over to ms, chun kiat called 1711 to get the time. then we all rushed to the grandstand facing esplanade n started counting down at the top of our voices. after we counted down, we just started singing merry christmas at the top of our voices too. haha. seriously, the grandstand was crowded, but no one counted with us, they just sat n stared. haha. we felt so embarrassed after that. but then, we all plucked up the courage n walked up the steps to get into ms. haha. so funny.

The movie was a bit disappointing though, boring in the first hour, then the story's pretty lame n some scenes were repetitive. paid $9.50 for it somemore. sianz. in the end i fell asleep in the last part of the show. haha. too tired already. by the time the movie ended it was 4am. all of us were damned shag. but i guess the money spent was worth it in a way, at least i had great fun. =) I guess christmas is only fun when u're with a whole group of nutty pple. haha.

okie that's the end of my christmas eve update, rest of my holidays spent after my chalet all the way to christmas eve was pretty much uneventful. carolling, softball..... only fun thing was cgm chalet. haha. hafn't had much real fun this hols. must try to get out more in this last few days, else my hols will really be wasted liao. haha. okie, shall not waste my time in front of the computer.. time to find more fun. wahaha. till my next post~!

okie... i'm back to blog... finally... well i can't help it, nothing to blog during exams, then after exams i was too busy preparing for my birthday party. once i got back from my party i fell sick n was stuck at home THE WHOLE WEEK. internet connection too slow at home to make me wan to blog at all. 56k lehz. so sianz. neway, had fun at my party, though i had so many guests that i was quite confused. haha. thanks all who attended n sorry that i wasn't a very good host, first time i hosted such a big party = P

well i guess i should share some of my pictures from my party, n of cos show off some of my fav pressies. heehee = P

okie first the pictures:


my dearies helping me light my candles..

My cgm colleagues

My hall friends! Very glad to see Maria (Yongren) n Shufen since I have not seen them for almost a sem. Quite missed them. (Left to right: Yongren, Huiyi, Shufen, Juening)

Me and Yenxiang

Dione n me!

Jeff, Dione, me and Lawrence. Many thanx to both of them for taking time to come = P

Chicky Family. A very old joke le. Each of us were numbered chicks. Haha. Liu Ting (小鸡3号), me (小鸡2号), Michell (小鸡4号), Lilian (小鸡1号), And our 母鸡, Casslyn, at the back. If anyone is wondering why I am showing my fat flabby arms in my pictures then please blame these 4 girls. They just happily came, pretended to pose then robbed me of my cardigan. Sobz. Hahaha. And even after they took the photo with me they refused to return me my cardigan... sobz..

My jc classmates. Meixuan, Deepa, me, Liu Ting in the front, Fujie, Kelvin, Shiqi at the back.

The guys decided that they wanted to take a picture with me. Haha. Stupid poses. Fujie, Kelvin, Shiqi in the second row, Allan n Peter at the back.

My "老婆" Limin n me

Me n Kevin Chua

The "so-called" librarians. Haha.

Me and Willie

My extended family (paternal side)

My extended family (maternal side)

Yupz, overall, party was fun. Though everything was delayed. Then came the unwrapping presents! Heehee ;P

I really really really swear I wasn't posing for this photo. It was really really really a candid shot n I just happened to look in the direction of the camera. But yeah, that was the kind of greedy look I had on my face when I was unwrapping all my presents. Haha.

And now, I shall show u all my presents! I really love all my presents n I appreciate all the effort taken to choose my presents. = D Dun be sad if your present is not top on my favorite list k? i love them all the same. heehee.

These really made my day. The larger bouquet was wrapped personally by my cousin. So sweet ehz. The smaller one was from my dear "老婆" Limin. There's a special reason why she gave me a rose. Very sweet. Heehee. Dun tell u all = P Anyway, it was really a coincidence that both of them gave me pink roses, though I like them too. Haha. Pink roses are 4th on my list of favorite flowers. Haha... After:

  1. Tulips (especially white ones)
  2. White roses
  3. Champaign roses

Heehee... 4th on the list not bad lar. Haha = P

Favorite present of the year. It's a necklace n pendant from Citygems. Given to me by my mummy. Thing is, my family never had the habit of buying each other birthday presents. So that's like the first birthday present I received from my mum. What's more surprising is that I only jokingly asked my mum whether she was buying me a diamond necklace for my birthday when we walked past a showcase while shopping n she really bought me one. Touched. Heeheez. *blush*

Favorite number 2. A watch from City Chain. Present from Dione, Zhehoung, Yixiang, Jeff and Lawrence. Not to forget Enoid n Gonz! n the rest of Gonz!'s family. Hahahaha. It's favorite number two cos it was something that I had always wanted. Finally I have a nice n classy watch! Haha. So cool. You don't know how excited I was when I saw it! Couldn't really take a very good close-up of it though. too many small details, a little hard to focus. = P I promised Zhehoung I'll be wearing it to carolling at Swissotel. So if u really wan to see it then come n watch us carolling! Haha = P I absolutely love this watch man. Heehee.

Also favorite number 2! Haha = P I really didn't know which I liked better cos I loved both presents too much. So they shall have to stay tied at 2nd position (Always remember that number 1 is always from mummy! Hahaha = P crapz) It's favorite number 2 beacuse it gave me the most surprises, and if u know me, you'd know how much I love pleasant surprises. Heehee. Surprise number one, I never thought any of my friends would buy me perfume. Surprise number two, I actually quite liked the scent. So far, i think only Dione has gone shopping with me for perfumes. Seriously, it really isn't easy to find a scent that I like. Ask Dione how many trips we have taken n how much time we spent on each occasion. I bet u'd swear never to go shopping with me for a scent for myself. Hahaha = P Yupz yupz, thanx to Juening n Willie and Kevin Chua for this lovely present.

Love this too. A necklace from Mintmark & Co and a bracelet from Perlini's. Present from Liu Ting, Deepa, Meixuan, Lilian, Michell n Casslyn. The pendant was really very very very very nice. Even Rongshan thinks so too. Haha. Want to see it can go to my friendster. I have a close-up there.

Present from Ronald and Shufen. I've always admired Shufen's creativity. She has not failed me this time. Haha. Even the gift wrap was decorated with little speech bubbles. So cute! What amazed me most was that she managed to find an old photo of the two of us n wrote on the back of it like it was a postcard! haha. So cute! I can never have such ideas lor. = P Shufen, if u ever read this, please keep up n good work n surprise me more! haha.

Present from my anutie. A perfume n mositurizer gift set from Mango n a converse bag.

This cute little Eeyore was from Fujie. Heehee... Eeyore is like, my favorite character from Winnie the Pooh lor. Haha. Loved it man. particularly liked the pink ribbon on it's tail. Check my friendster if u wan to see.

Very nice nice four leaved clover pendant n chain. It's quite common lar if u noticed. But I've been eyeing it ever since the collection first emerged. It's something that I've always fancied but up till now I still can't bear to buy for myself. Love Sok Hoon for giving it to me manz. Haha. = P

Esprit Bag from the guys (Allan, Shiqi, Kelvin, Daniel,Peter). Never guessed that they would buy me a bag, but hey, I need a new bag. Haha. A right present that came at the right time!

Okie this came from my colleagues at CGM. Yeap, if you can count, it's a $150 worth of shopping vouchers. When I opened the envelope I was like, woohoo! I feel rich! Haha. But as I have said to many, i can forsee myself spending most of it on other pple, but then again, spreading joy will only multiply your joy. Haha. It's the thought that counts anyway. Heez...


This is something special. Bought as early as last holidays. Haha. n it took a flight in all the way from USA. Cool ehz? Feels good to know that your friend remembers you even when he's at the other end of the globe. A very sweet present from Yenxiang. And no, it's not last on the page cos it's a least fav or something, it just happened to be last present on the page. Beside my 3 favs I love all the other presents equally ok?

alrighty, I guess that's enough long-windedness for now, if u guys wan to see more pictures can go to my friendster lar... I have more pictures there since it's easy access n loads a lot faster than blogger nowadays. I have close-ups of some of my presents there n also more individual shots with pple. I am contemplating whether I should showcase a few of my favorite guest book entries in my next post. Will decide soon.
