dec 22 met up with peeps from rj for lunch at a pizza place. happy birthday evita!! it was great seeing you guys, especially after a 6 month hiatus. we've gotta meet up more often!we hung around till abt six, then i was off to meet lea and daph for dinner at... can you guess? yes, another pizza place!!! ah well, it's good that i loove pizza ;] this one had yummy home made ice-cream -- we shared 6 scoops amongst the 3 of us! after that it was crazy elephants to watch my godpa perform. how cool is that, my godpa is in a band! and not just that, i heard it's one of the best bands in singapore. the only asian in the band of ang mors, you rock man godpa! o bar and double o after... ladies night =] my first 'pop'! then off for roti prata supper...yummy! dec 23 dad brought home gifts he got from his office, which included the yummiest slab of $500 kobei beef! glenn cooked for us, and dad just slept till it was ready. mummy was so angry at him... he said they opened 9 bottles of wine at his office christmas party just before, so he came home really sloshed. but it was so funny! he kept falling off the chair and just keep pointing to the walls when we asked him which wine we could use to cook the beef. opened the margaret river one, which he nodded his approval to that night, but the next morning... it was 'ahh!! that one is expensive! wrong wine!' haha. he is so funny, and mum is so cheeky! tickling his armpits while he was sleeping... crazy family i have man. haha dec 24 the traditional christmas eve party at my grandma's house! ha, everyone knows my love for soft toys, every single one of my presents included a soft toy! and the best haul.... these two!
thanks mum and auntie serene! i looooveee them!!!
haha. they are both so fat that i have trouble every night hugging them both to sleep. but i can't just choose one.... the other will get jealous!! haha. i'm so childish sometimes ;) was supposed to go out with sue to attica, cos we've got a vip table there, but missed it in the end... dad fetched us back home after the other party around one, per sue's request cos she wanted to change to more comfortable shoes, and during the in between period while waiting for her friend to fetch us, we fell asleep! ah well, there'll always be others=] dec 25 dragged myself out of bed to go to church in the morning -- i'm so proud of myself, i was the only one out of us three sisters who managed to wake up in time! haha. after, went for christmas lunch at my great grand aunt's house. ate and ate and ate.....came home... slept... and ate again! am i getting repetitive?!?! heehee. christmas house party at my house. another eating session. did anyone else notice how the christmas season promotes gluttony?? ha, was initially thinking of dancing away that extra turkey at zouk, but decided to forgo that in exchange for a mahjong session with the sisters, glenn, and duckie at home instead. glenn made us lychee martinis (yummy!!) and i found out something.... i'm allergic to cognac! drank some grapefruit orange cocktail after that which contained cognac, and i got a full body rash after! i mean, i usually turn really red after i drink (lea says its good blood circulation, heehee^^); but this time even my arms and legs had red patches! anywayz, went to sleep straight after... that alcohol rash terrorised me! dec 26 finally, up to date! really didn't do much today... woke up to a whole fridgeful of leftovers:) the day after christmas is really the best day for pigging out! i absolutely ADORE turkey porridge.... and if you've never tried it, get your mum to keep those turkey bones from christmas dinner. just throw the bones in a slowcooker with rice the night before and expect a yummy surprise the next day! haha, i sound like a commercial or a tv chef or something... but it really is yummy. heehee. sitting here waiting for glenn to finish cooking.... it's more kobei beef for dinner. yums!!! haha, i love my sister's bf... such a great cook!

looks like its gonna be food and more food for the next few days until 2006 arrives... christmas party with the smu peeps tmr... i'm making cherry brandy truffles, oreo cheesecake, and strawberry cheesecake! haha. feeling a tad lazy to start cooking... but i already bought the ingredients... so no wasting! just realised i'm in trouble for wed's plans... double booked myself for everything. blame it on bad memory =[, i so need to use my organiser (that was LAST year's resolution^^ heehee, didn't work) i've got lunch with the rjc peeps which i absolutely cannot miss. jo and val are back! after that, my baby cousin rachel's birthday at macs for tea. more great cake!!
