Christmas - silent night

Oooppss.. Christmas day is over, I'm a little late, am I not! I guess I just wasn't in the mood to write, so much to reflect on before the new year arrives. And I certainly can't wait because the next can't be any worse than this one :)))) Tell me, please!


First of all, MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you... (the above picture is specially for you ;) ) I have already sent my greetings on e-mails and I guess it has reached most people I wanted to get hold of, except a few with invalid email addresses. Thank you to those whom have responded too.

I also met up quite a couple of old friends this month, there was a baby shower... an old schoolmate visiting from HK and the usual christmas-gift-exchange gatherings (which I never seem to get tired of). I haven't had chance to see more people but I'm sure things will fall in place nicely when time comes.

This year's Christmas eve is very unusually spent. The initial plan of heading out for a countdown was cancelled, after most of my friends decided to stay indoor because of the weather or "tired" or "being with kids" or "spending with family"... My family do not celebrate it, and I gave it a miss to join my sister and her friend for a drink too. It was actually quite peaceful, I took out my old wordcross puzzle book, and did 8 freaking puzzles related to winter and christmas! Can you believe that?!?? It's a bit taxing on the mind when I get a little competitive later on (with myself of course). But I was enjoying the weather, very cold (for Singapore) and watching a film on TV at the same time.


What is Christmas without gifts or presents?? Thank you friends, because I absolutely love the things I have received. I also made some small candy packs to give out to old friends whom I randomly meet. I received 2 more snow globes for X'mas, and my current collection has hit 9. Damn, I need to find them a proper storage space! I can imagine next time, I have to allocate a whole shelf just for them. One of them is shown below :)

One very interesting gift I got from a good friend is actually a FENGSHUI keychain which will probably improve my luck - ask me this again one year later, lol. I'll tell you then if it has worked!

I'm actually quite blessed to say I have spent two Christmas before in real winter (one even with snow!), so can't complain much when I have a quiet and warm one. Looking forward to spend my Christmas elsewhere again - wherever that is going to be!

Love you all!
