Christmas day itself was cool... it was supposed to be a simple lunch of catered food with my dad's side... but 2 families from my mom's side dropped by too... so it became a mini Chinese New Year celebration too... mom made up for the lack of gifts with angbaos... played catching at the playground with my little cousins... and boy... it was fun... reliving the good ole days of running ard mindlessly... went to Serene's place for dinner and a stayover... watched TV over pizzas... then sent Carrie to the bus stop... while the rest of us took a walk along the Siglap Park Connector... sitting there to talk a while... over Slurpie and Florida Natural sweets... finished the Hazelnut Mini icecream on the way there... made our way back to the main road where her place was situated... had yummilicious oyster omelette and you ji mee sua... made our way back... bathed... talked... surfed net... then went to her room to watch VCD... five of us on the bed... bed collapsed... at freaking 0330hrs in the morning... how exciting. but it was freakish la... we were all debating how she would get it from her sis and parents... abt the broken bed... we all slept in the study that night... on hindsight we should have camped out at the living room couch... that morning actually... and slept until 10am... woah... breakfast was soft boiled eggs and toast at a nearby kopitiam... all for just 2 bucks per pax... so shiok... met the guy at Parkway for lunch... ended up at Swensen's... where he got a burger as usual... and we shared an apple crumble... which made me so full despite not having a main course... coz i had breakfast not too long ago... took a bus down to PF... where we planned to surf... found the boy behind my torn sail.. got him to repair it for me... though the guy and myself had to put in some work too... wind was non-existent... so we decided to make full use of time and do some important shopping... catch Narnia/Wallus and Gromit if we could... but our walk through Suntec took some time... Salomon was having a 60% sale... guy bought a shirt... and two Nautica tshirts... we bought present... and looked for present... but wah lau... so hard... decided to go Marina catch Narnia... but only the 6pm one fits our plans to reach home before the Chelsea game... single seperate seats... no go... ate at Changing Appetites.. as recommended by Weiming... good service... (3 waiters asked whether we would like iced water when they saw that we din have...) sizeable portions... affordable prices... pretty yummy indeed... shopped ard somemore.. saw that the skirt i bought at full price recently is going at 30% off... and some Project Shop-looking bags that are quite pretty... save for the fact that my dad has been on my back about my bags clogging up the space... i think i should hide some of them at the guy's place until i move back to PGP... the guy bought his gift exchange gift.. and we made our way back to watch Chelsea - Fulham... where i slept through most of it... allowing his mom to catch me bleary-eyed under his quilt... asking what i want for my present... woke up to a nice cuppa coconut drink with flesh! fresh from the coconut... woohoo! then Chelsea won... lalalaa... guy sent me back thereafter... where we counted empty cabs on the road... i lost count. ----Stef stopped rambling at 01:29 --Link to Post |
