Merry Christmas, officially

I really have to say this,


MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!


The day has finally arrived! I'm blogging this, reporting live at 12 midnight, welcoming the arrival of Christmas 2005 ! WOOHOO~!


But i just feel that singapore isnt doing enough to celebrate christmas! The atmosphere is rather lousy and other than Orchard road, nowhere else has the mood actually. Aiyah, i mean we cant blame anyone cause everyone's lazy, even i am lazy to set up the christmas tree this year, ha!


Just now, my family (excluding my father) went over to my sister's house for a christmas eve dinner and it was really enjoyable. How i wish i can have more of this every christmas. My sister prepared steak and lambchop( this one not very nice), salad, meshed potatoes and sauteed mushrooms..since when did she learn how to cook so many things! And she really put in a lot of effort decorating the dining table, every steak had a mini santa on it and there were candles, pines etc.

But hor, we all didnt say grace! Hahaha.. no i did lah.

Arh, it was really warm. And i got another christmas present from my eldest sister! Hahah, she's really a great sister, not because she always buy me presents.. I'm not that materialistic. She bought me a suave blue tennis racket! And something else( wrapped up, i shall not open it yet until BOXING DAY.) Oh she gave everyone a coffee bean voucher too!

I'm really happy, just for this while. I have to admit there's been quite a number of things bugging me and i'm trying really hard to just delete them off my mind. It's christmas afterall, i want to enjoy myself.


This year i feel really quite guilty for not writing christmas cards and i feel even more guilty when i receive xmas cards from pple.

So let me take this opportunity to show my appreciation.

The following portion is people-specific, you can dont read if you dont want to. Just scroll all the way until further instructions.

XMAS CARD 1 : THANKS JOY



Wah, very nice right! Handmade one and it looks really neat, even my mum says so when she saw it. Plus there was a very pleasant message inside, thanks a lot Joy! It's really very nice. Have a blessed Christmas this year and every year ahead. You have been a very nice person and with all the good karma you've accumulated, everything's going to be smooth sailing!

XMAS CARD 2: THANKS MICH KOO



Michelle, thanks for being such a wonderful classmate and friend. I think without you i wouldnt be in rj at all and also thanks for making class-life so much more enriching and enjoyable. We really enjoy laughing at aunty may although she's always innocent, hahaha! And ms wee fan club, snack club... God bless you this and every christmas =]

XMAS CARD 3: THANKS WEE



Hahah, another handmade card but it's in Chinese! Have you ever seen a xmas card in chinese? No? Yah i got it! Hahah, even the message inside is in chinese but i'm really bilingual so it's not a problem. The message inside is really crappy cause part of it is directed by me. Anyway, thanks wee for always entertaining all my crap since like sec 3? Hahah! Wish you all the best in the coming year and peace will overwhelm your house.

XMAS CARD 4: THANKS NOVELLA



Novella, my senior in band who lives in clementi too! But now that she has graduated i have no one to share cab with. Nov, thanks for being such a great senior! Really one of the best in band i can say. although i only know you for a year, you have already left a pleasant lasting impression and i appreciate that. May your christmas be always filled with fun and warmth. Enjoy your london trip!
Tze, where is your card arh?

XMAS CARD 5: THANKS SHUMAY



ShuM ! Your card isnt ugly! It's very unique i thought. Thanks for sending xmas card every year! It's been my pleasure and honour to know you and be in such a wonderful class like 4C. It's great organising 4C outings with you, no wonder they're always so successful hor! Hahaha! Yah, here's wishing you an extremely merry christmas and a happy new year!



OK, HERE'S WHERE YOU CAN START READING AGAIN.


To everyone else, i'm wishing you a very blessed christmas this year and every year ahead. It has never been better knowing all of you and thanks for being such nice friends. I really appreciate everyone of you.

Oh, my christmas post is getting abit long and drama but congrats if you managed to read all the way here! I still have more actually!

It's my christmas post, what can you expect?

Now i'm going to blog about my Xmas party yesterday with 4C.

Every year we have 4C christmas party and this year is no exception! this year, shuhui has very kindly allowed us to use her father's office to celebrate. HOW COOL IS THAT!

Her father is the owner of Weeds, a brand of health products, you can visit www.iweeds.com for further information. Hahha just say for fun i know you all cant be bothered.

The place is really cool cause it has a stage with a karaoke system! Hahaha and lots of chairs and what's more, the staff actually helped us blow balloons! See how big shot we are.

All we needed to do is put on some streamers and bring some food.

I brought partay poppers and streamers! All bought in bulk from bangkok!

Our party was really professional cause we had Nora to do photography for us with her 2000 dollars plus SLR camera.

Even her bloody tripod is bigger than mine.

HAHAHAH! my tripod costs only 1 buck, so the size is also proportional to the price.

I prepared chocolate fondue for the potluck!

We dipped almost EVERYTHING inside.

At the end of the day, shu hui's father was supremely generous and gave each of us a bottle of ACNE TREATMENT gel. It's not the sample one ok, it's the real commercial one. I think shuhui must have told him about how langa our faces are.

But it's still practical cause everyone has pimples and this gel is good because it is watery and transparent which means you literally cannot feel anything when you put it on and no smell too! It's called Silent Healer, healing your pimples silently. I HOPE. You want to buy? Ok, you can get it either by telling me you have langa face and need urgent treatment or just go to www.iweeds.com and purchase it online!

WE ALL HAVE SILENT HEARLERS, DO YOU?


Hahaha, a little bit of advertisement but the main point is still,

MERRY CHRISTMAS =]
