Its been a great Christmas weekend, had a good rest, and also some lovely times with my family and friends. On Christmas eve, mum cooked Prawn Aglio Olio for lunch, salad, cream of chicken soup, and my cheesecake for lunch..The Aglio Olio was rather dry as compared to the ones outside, which I think they add tons of oil, but it was pretty yummy. In the evening, there was a cg gathering where we had dinner of fried beehoon, curry and fried chicken, courtesy of Steph's mum, and also jelly. There was so much leftover food and drinks that we had to play 'zong ji mi ma' to finish the food, thus resulting in everyone being full to the brim, and steph having stomach ache the next day...
On Christmas day, after a great church service at the Indoor Stadium, I went back to Dad's place. He was quite thrilled with my present of Godiva Chocolate and brownies, and I in turn got a lovely purple cross from him, so very unexpected. And I got a necklace from aunt aubrey as well..We stayed at home until evening, where we went all the way to expo to watch a magic show by FCBC with Aunt Aubrey and her family. It was pretty alright la, though I wasnt very impressed with the magic tricks. If you have seen one, you have seen all, especially if its David Copperfield.
On Boxing Day, after a lovely breakfast of tim sum at Tak Po with dad and aunt aubrey at Chinatown, I went off to meet steph who was leaving for Bangkok with the cg that evening. I rather regretted not being able to go along, but I guess I am too committed to work. So I went all the way to Changi Airport with him to send him off, and also to eat at Popeye's, my favourite buttermilk biscuits and fried chicken. My christmas present for him was a mini beanie handphone holder, and also some cheesecake and lots of cookies. Meanie beanie=mini beanie...get it? hahah, he was sooo touched by it cos it is something symbolic between us..and my christmas present from him is Miami Glow...hahah..strike another off my wishlist, and another bottle to add to my collection of perfumes. That tut actually put the perfume in a chocolate box, and I was exclaiming over how delicious it looked and opened it up to discover something else inside, but I was pretty thrilled...hahah..and there is also a private joke about that..
The journey home alone was pretty boring..and I spent the rest of the night slacking..and today, work was back to normal..Izzy and I shared the Portobello Mushroom burger from Carl's Junior today,at the price of $8 per burger, its bloody expensive, but its also very yummy, way better than the mushroom swiss king at BK, but duhhh. The way to eating it and not getting fat is to share it, cos each burger contains about a whopping 800 calories and more than 30g of fat. I also bought teh tarik..what would I do without teh tarik at work, it keeps me warm and awake..hahah..7 more days of work left before school starts..and for once, I cant say I am looking forward to that...sigh
