This year's christmas celebration was really quite fulfilling... celebrated with different groups of people... On the eve was with Bong's usual gang... went to one of the guy's house to have a sumptious meal of steamboat... one of them was joking tat it felt more like "tuan yuan fan",which means a reunion dinner we usually have during Chinese New Year. However, this beats being in town and be squashed like sardines... nah... I'm way over the squeezing problem, especially Orchard Road. I've realised over the years, that during such Christmas or New Year seasons, hordes of Bangladeshi workers will head over to town to join in the fun... Not tat i'm being a racist... but trust me... the stench isn't very appealing. Seriously, i'm alrite with those tat don't smell...

Anyway, each of us were supposed to bring down a pressie for a gift exchange. Tat was pretty funny cos there were some funny ones...and not to mention, some of the guys took some funny photos... of cos, not forgetting the group photos, which consisted of monkey faces, serious faces, and smiley faces... however, we totally forgot to do the Christmas countdown as we were engrossed in a VCD tat we were watching!! Aww man... anyway, to end off the eve, we went to Marina South at an ungodly hour of almost 1am...played pool and some arcade games...then finally headed to home sweet home...by the time i reached home... it was 5am...

On Christmas day itself... we relaxed at home almost the whole day, then went over to my cousin's house at the other end of the world at Bt. Panjang area... i nearly fainted on the bus...and contented myself with playing the Snake game on Bong's phone...

So well, yesterday... spent some valuable time with Bong's army gang and their gfs...guess wat... us gfs are known as the 41st wives club... -_-"' Haha... Had a wonderful and vigorous tennis session, altogether 9 of us...we even played tennis triples instead of doubles! So 6 of us were sparring on the court. There was once where it was like the battle of the sexes! 3 of us gals against the guys...we did pretty well i must say. =D

Apparently, the calories burnt during the tennis session went rite back into our bodies after having a meal of KFC... but tat meal was a great catching up session... it was especially good to listen to Ian - the subaru imprezza car winner, talk about his ordeal during the challenge. Well...i guess determination has its benefits...

Okies... we have decided tat New Year's Eve will be spent together... but we dunno how we are gonna spend it yet... well... i guess we'll jus have to wait for tat day before knowing wat is gonna happen. Tonite.. gonna have another steamboat with my bunch of girlies, and of cos, not forgetting the annual gift exchange. Can't wait!!

Photos will be uploaded soon!! In the meantime, Merry Christmas!!! (Don't say tat i'm late in the greetings, cos i'm not... don't forget tat we have 12 days of Christmas!!)
