Christmas

VENUE: Home
WHATS ON: Ocean’s 11

Of all the festive occasions, Christmas warms my heart most. *3 seconds of the ‘am-I-sure’ frown* 100% Yes!

Perhaps because Christmas is a celebration I wasn’t born into. Chinese New Year is an event I enjoy by the colour of my skin; birthday [the perfect excuse to turn narcissistic] is…was the product of my parent’s decision or pleasure or both. Ideally, my birth date would either be 16th September or 29th September so I could be blessed either with the social charisma Minister Lee Kuan Yew had or the good looks that made Won Bin hot. Delusional Cow, I am!

Christmas, very simply, I chose to celebrate it. Yes, I am talking about those of you who had received a present and/or text messages that goes beyond those over-sent greetings. "Thank you!" You had given to me, sometimes more than I deserved. This song speaks my mind at this instance:

"Nothing comes from nothing

nothing ever could,

So somewhere in my youth or childhood

I must have done something good"

*Teary-eyed…reach for tissue…wipe away the extra-spicy sauce of the corners of mouth..continue to munch on favourite fried chicken*

X’MAS EVE

Kicked off the day with the exchange of gifts with a good friend over an expensive MOS BURGER lunch…gave him a CD which he recently bought *dramatic gasp*…received a miniature MENTHOS sweet dispenser that reads “Sperm Balls”...*dramatic i'm-not-sure-what-to-say pause*...I hoped he liked his lousy present as much as I found mine cute!

Spent a brief hour shopping along the funky district at BUGIS…old age worn us down…rooted ourselves inside a café and tried to revive our [late-20’s] old bones with tea…and we came to an agreement that we prefer people watching at FAR EAST…our cuties are all there…[Yup! Good friends make cheap thrills fun!]
