MERRY CHRISTMAS, READERS :)
This year's Christmas is definitely different than
last year's Christmas celebration.
And
definitely better.
This year was extremely hectic. Starting from 12am, till well, 12am. Yep.
Was spending the night at Joel's, and we didn't know what to do to celebrate the first few seconds of the much anticipated Christmas Day. We were at Joel's after one bloody hectic day of last minute shopping; and due to that, we were pretty much broke. We spent a
bomb on 60 presents in total. It was not just a hole in my bloody pocket, it practically bombed my entire self. :|

So we were starting to gift wrap the presents (we didn't send it to a shop, as Joel was confident we could wrap it ourselves. righttttt.) in an EXTREMELY unorganized way. Haha :P To add to the enormous bulk of pressure we had about the thought of not finishing the presents in time, YitHaang came over.
YitHaang and his bloody antics. Lol.
And he was the most distracting thing ever; fooling around and making us laugh our asses off. We had a couple of plans that night, but after Tania called, we decided to go to Gurney for the countdown. I had a horrifying experience of countdowns in Gurney last year, and it wasn't a pretty sight. I hated snow sprays.
But anyways, we went to pick Tania up, parked at her place, and walked to Gurney, considering the very short distance of the both locations. We reached there, and obviously we got sprayed. Lucky for me, YitHaang was beside me the entire time and pushes me down everytime he sees someone targeting me from behind. Yeah, LUCKY. -.- I was screaming my lungs out the entire time. NOT fun.
I still had AWFUL gasps of nothing but aerosol down my throat and nasal cavities. It was utterly horrendous, and I never want to spend another countdown at Gurney ever again. I am serious. Well, I said that last year, but wtheck.

Anyway, we were so drenched and sticky with the spray that we went to Secret Recipe for shelter. Met and bumped into a number of people there, namely YiMei and gang, MingYu, LeeYip, and some others whom I forgot for the time being. Went into SR, and ordered 3 bottles of plain water since none of us had any cash on us. Lol. The bill turned out to be slightly less than 10 bx. -.- What a rip off, really.

RIP OFF! :( But we managed to pay it off anyway, so yes. Went out of SR again into the world of uncivilized people, and went back to Tania's place to wash and clean up. Got some pretty amazing night shots at her place, while everyone's emo-ing around and not talking. =|
I actually do think it's amazing, so shut up :P
I love this shot.
This weirdo. Bah :P
Went back to Joel's, and took a long shower. Tried wrapping the presents, but it looked so never-ending, I did it halfheartedly.
I called SK, and he came over. We walked around and talked, and yeah. I shall skip this part, but it was amazing. =) Well, he is. Lol. How flattering ey.
Before I know it, it was 6am. LOL. How time flies. So I went back into the house, and watched Joel and Niwen wrapping the presents. At 7am-ish, they felt sleepy and went to sleep. Felt guilty that they were wrapping the presents while I was talking outside, so I made the cards. Haha. Woke Joel up to wrap NiWen's secret present. Lol. We did the stupidest things. Wrapped with newspaper, and stuck bits of rubbish, receipts, leftover crepe paper, and everything you can think of. We were laughing quietly, afraid that we might wake NiWen up. It was really fun, to say the least.


The mad present-wrapping experience.
Went to sleep at 7.30am, expecting to wake up at 9-ish. By the time we woke up, Termin and Moy were all dressed, knocking on our bedroom door! We were LATE to the extreme. Was screaming, writing and labeling every present, and trying to multitask (and sadly failed). Forgot that I had a dance performance that morning before service! By the time we reached there, we were late and had to skip the performance. Pragas wasn't very happy about that.
Oh well. We were on time for the service though. After that, we exchanged presents and went to Queens for lunch.

Sam dropped us at Joel's, and opened presents with TerMin, Moy, Joel and NiWen =) Just like last year!


The best thing is that I got YET another item on my wishlist! :D
Persuasion - Jane Austen♥
Thanks, SK :)
The presents were amazing, people. Thanks a bunch! =]
Oh well. Anyway, we stayed until quite late, and Joel's family was gonna have a family reunion dinner, so TerMin, Moy and I were like errr.. Lol. But his mom insisted, so we stayed.
Turkey.
TerMin waiting in anticipation for the turkey :P
His face AFTER consuming the turkey x]
After dinner, we went back to Joel's room and chatted and lmao. Was bored, decided to go to the pool area.

Was bored again, so went back to Joel's place and packed our stuff, and TerMin dropped us home. Didn't realize how tired I was until I slept in the car the entire journey.
Yep. That was my Christmas.
A lot of drama not inserted here.
So yes, I do realize that it's a few days AFTER Christmas already, but yeah. Better late than never. Was just so terribly busy! Ahhh!
