hello world! because i am damn bored at work today, i shall blog! =)
december has been a really fun month, with tons of christmas celebrations (even though i don't celebrate christmas..haha), and i think i've received more christmas/bday gifts this yr, than i've ever had in the past 10 yrs =) i must also mention that the gifts i've gotten so far are all items/things tt i like, unlike the usual trashy gifts that we usually get (aka photoframes, christmas ornaments etc) from mandatory gift exchange sessions that we take part in.
here's what i've received so far:
1) Fabrix camera pouch
2) organizer
3) OPI Manicure vouchers
4) a bag
5) Givenchy towel
6) Yoga Mat + Yoga Bootcamp set
7) Guitar Heroes World Tour
8) Capitaland vouchers
9) Chocs from Marks & Sparks
and another gift that i've yet to open =)
i've also had my fair share of present giving coz it's the season of giving afterall!
so...anw anw...here are some pics from the things that i've been up to in december...
07 Dec: my favourite person in this world took part in his first marathon, and erm i'm not saying how long he took. but anw, i think i have to salute him for taking part in it, coz he didn't really train for it. one of our friends asked whether i will ever run with him in a marathon, and my reply was ..."not in this life or the next!!" haha...sorry but i still don't see a point in paying to put myself through such torture.
*pictures koped from marathon-photos.com =)
20 Dec: my favourite person in this world then took me to lawry's the weekend before christmas, for my bday dinner =D
we had the lawry's cut and the sirloin steak. the lawry's cut is very nice but erm the sirloin steak is ok only. the set meal comes with the famous spinning bowl salad, and the waitresses will spin the bowl as they mix the salad - it sure looked like a magic performance.
but the funniest part was when they came in with a bday cake and sang......"happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to youuuuu...happy birthday to you!"and then after tt they all stand in one line and do this hand action and sing..."AND MANY MOREEEEE". omg, i almost burst out laughing!
22 Dec: my colleagues celebrated my + 3 other colleague's bday in the christmas week. they bought us two huge cakes and gave each of us the best vouchers in the world - CapitaLand vouchers! yay!
met the girls for dinner that same night and had yet another cake =) look at my poor cake, destroyed by big nose hobz..it almost slid off it's tray, but anw it was very nice and is from yack's place. thanks for getting me a cake and for the chocs!
and then...........the best thing that happend in december is that...i went to my fav country again! HK HK...i heart HK! =)
these pictures were taken with the fish eye lens that my cousin-in-law gave me. how hideous we all look!
our eating spree!
and on the second last day of our trip, we went to lantau island. that was my first time there. for once i saw the buddha with my own eyes, instead of on the tv. we didn't climb up the steps to the buddha as it was foggy and raining.
there's this village at the foot of the buddha called Ngong Ping village. it surely is commercialized man. there's like starbucks there. visitors are supposed to experience life in the village, but erm how to when it's only filled with souvenir shops and western cafes?!
and then there's this attraction in the village called "walking with the buddha" that didn't really make sense at all. we were brought into this huge theatre to watch a video on the buddha's journey to nirvana, but at the end of the the video, there was a huge WATSONS word in the buddha's eye, followed by a scene featuring all the sponsors of that attraction. super wtf!
we were then brought into this room with a huge glass buddha, and the guide told us to take a leaf, slot it into the machine beneath the lotus pad tt the buddha was sitting on, and make a wish. then a green light will circulate in the buddha's body, signifying tt your wish is being processed. when the bright white light appears in the buddha's head, it means that your wish will come true. another super wtf thing ...tsk tsk...
anw, i think the worst thing that happened in the trip was that my parents, and cootie kena food poisoning/diarrhoea. so poor thing la, but luckily it wasn't SUPER SERIOUS.
so ok anw that kinda sums up my entire dec.
Merry belated Christmas and Happy New Year! =D
