Christmas 2006...

alrighties.... so what happened on Christmas weekend.... let's see.... beyond the mad rush to drop off presents at EDB and KPMG in the late night, and arranging to pass ppl their christmas gifts....

it first started on 22nd, Fri morning with a beautiful bouquet of roses ...
















then it was chillout with L&T folks back in EDB...

following that was a nice meal (note: more food!!) with gracie, qilei, liyi, kevin and qigen @ Village Heeren... intended to pick up some make-up from Shu-Umera but turns out that there wasn't 40% discount as expected so that will have to wait... and in between getting lost (me and gracie), we squeezed in some christmas shopping at Tangs as well...

by the time i got home... which was almost 12am... i realised that I was totally stuffed, spent and really needed rest!!

23rd Dec, Saturday

well... was suppose to be tour guide to cousins who were in town from Klang, but turns out that their other relative brought them to Sentosa and I had pretty much the whole day to myself... which was awesome... watched VCDs and just chill... love it!!

then headed out to meet cousins and one of their bf for Curse of the Golden Flower starring... u all know who.... @ the Cathay

the story was so-so... the acting, at least for Gong Li and Chow Yuan Fatt were good, i liked how the movie was directed... but it was a tad commercial and yeah... the dressing for the females leaves much to be desired... and one thing i must say.... SINGAPOREANS.... give poor Jay a break.... He is trying his best to act already... the whole cinema burst out laughing on at least 2 occasions when he had his emotional scenes....!!! heartless humans.... hai.....

intended to bring them for a drive round Singapore but inadvertently, they were tired and so decided to head home after the movie...

24rd Dec, Sunday
went for service and then met up with Fanny and Grace (friend from Cambodia) for a quick catch-up @ Plaza Singapura... which turned out to be a mini-shopping expedition as well and me and grace ended up buying the same top.... haha... one stone kill 2 birds... awesome!

then it was to SBC for the christmas celebration and to help out with the hair / make-up for the kids. am sure to miss the humans there.... here are some of the wacko bunch.... =)

Ah li... future hip-hop / breaker star.... (lucky me....)














Ah Han... future rapper / R&B artiste... (again... lucky me...)
















Ah qi... another future hip-hop / breaker star and beautiful Charmaine... gorgeous woman of God in the making....















who can forget the lovely trio... meiqi, zhaopei and zhiting... glorious, glorious, glorious!!!















and of coz... it is Princess lei's birthday and we all trotted down to Raffles the Plaza for the birthday bash... great room... great food (full turkey with stuffing and ham)... great prezzies... and of coz, great company.... it was an awesome way to count down to Christmas... we had like 2 bottles of champagne though i think the ladies barely finished 1 glass amongst all of us... haha!!


25th Dec, Monday.... CHRISTMAS DAY!!
I did... NOTHING.... and that was absolutely spectacular!!

actually.... i slept like tons the whole day.... which was fantabulous!!

went for a run in the morning... cooled down, showered and slept again till abt 5ish... and then had a nice home-cooked meal topped with home-made tang-yuen (glutinous rice dumplings... a sweet dessert). the day ended with a pleasant 2-hr+ conversation... and then it was to zzzz-land again....

this is just GREAT!!

will blog the dampening event separately.... by and large... it was a great holiday!
