Christmas Celebrations

On Christmas Eve, i got let off an hour earlier than usual. Was back home at 5pm because my driver got lost while trying to pick me up. Yes, he still gets lost on the island. don't know why... Made some tiramisu for a party on Christmas day while watching Madagascar and waiting for time to pass. We decided we weren't going to the crowded 6pm mass with the kids (!) and their poor parents, so the only other option was the midnight mass. But their midnight mass STARTS at midnight, unlike the 11pm mass at home which ENDS at midnight. so i was yawning away by the time we got to church. nowadays, my bedtime is granny 11pm. this was way past bedtime!! it was still enjoyable and we got to wish father jerry a merry christmas. that was nice.

Yesterday we went to F and C's house for turkey lunch/tea. there were sweet potatoes, brussel sprouts and parsnips too. bursting at the seams after that meal. then we watched national treasure on DVD. it was a pretty exciting show and i liked it although nicholas cage isn't one of my favourites. then we went off for another party. one of our friend's mother and mother-in-law were in town so we had some really delicious chinese food for dinner!! both mums were super cute, reminded us of our own mums in fact. i guess all mums are the same!!

Today we are having a lazy day. it's still a holiday here - Boxing Day. just lazing around.

3.5 more working days. my mind is on holiday! last evening's kickboxing class totally killed me! i huffed and puffed and threatened to punch my imaginary opponent senseless, but in the end, it was i that suffered, not the air molecules that got knocked around. my body is aching like a 90-year-old who's just completed 100 push-ups. i couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. i had to wake hao-e up to massage my shoulder-blades which were so sore and is still kicking up a ruckus behind me. my gosh! i tis old and feeble.

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...
