HEY HEY. omggg. christmas party at chew's place is a BLAST. I REPEAT, IT'S A BLASTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.
ok, so the night before 23rd i went to catch movie with lovely and friends. and i reached her place after midnight. rather late. and so we slept, and i woke up at 10 plus. but fully awake at 11am. LOL. at that time,we are still present-less for the party. so we went down to vivo at 1215pm. and i managed to get my present in time. and went off at around 2 plus. reaching hougang at around 2 plus 3.
It was super fun doing all those retro shopping with lovely. and we 3 girls managed to buy a sparkling rose wine for the party. we must be 18 in order to do so. LOL! ;) managed to lie our way through by acting professional la.hahahaha.
so yeah, reached home around 3 plus. and prepared, suppose to meet lovely at 445. but basically by then,i'm still preparing. and then my unlucky day start.
i put all the presents into a paper bag,cos it seemed nice to be carrying one to a party cos it's spacious. then, it started raining cats and dogs. like it never rained for years. SO FREEKING HEAVY till when i took the bus,i'm drenched at the bag. and then when i reach lovely's house, the bus stop's flooded. the pathway between the steps and the bus stop, there's like super high level of rainwater gushing down it. such that there's this super funny incident.
this particular family; mother and 2 sons, trying to cross the super high level of rainwater gushing down the walkway. then his youngest son's slippers just SLIP away from his feet. not foot, but feet. and he tried to fish it as it rushes down the walkway.omg, me and lovely just kept laughing and laughing. i know, it's bad of us but seriously the scene's way too funny.
so yeah,after that, i've decided that i shall not wait any long for the water to subside, but to go over to her place and take a pit stop and then transfer my presents over to the a plastic bag. and we're off to chew's place.
so when we reached, not many turned up yet.we chilled, and went upstairs to see the rest of the girls. sherm n gang were changing into their RETRO clothes. and yeah, i must say sherm's super cute that night. she won herself the MISS RETRO of the night! =D
so basically,the entire night was about dance, games and food. AND MORE DANCE of course! ;)
the dance is really highlight of the night. me and zen just danced to "tarzan" LOL! my dance partner really knows how to dance. =D and then there's the dare from mai, to make the guys dance. of course, being 4E2s, the guys are sporty, AH BEN danced with me.HAHA! super cute man! and then the entire group comes together after much persuasion to dance together. however, the part where i was surrounded by the guys while dancing just freeks me out. LOL! i wonder why?
caught up with lots of old friends. even jingjing turned up! real happy to see familiar faces. i hope this becomes a tradition. HAHA! evey 23rd of december, a super fun miracle happens on this very earth. WOW right? =)
after all that commotion, we had our gift exchange. and i've gotten weisheng's super cute musical box gift. it's music by beethoven. LOL! and cheryl oh gotten mine. mine's a small snow globe and a USB fragrance thing.HHAHA! how cute huh.
so we chilled a while longer upstairs, playing games and chatted. and then it's goodbye. a heartwarming goodbye of course. as we all wish each other a merry christmas! and i went home with mingxian and lovely.
24th, i worked in the afternoon and then rushed down to town to countdown for A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS! met up with jingfu,jeff,irfan,seanyong,juian,ben,JK,ridz,weisheng,and juian's cousin.
this is my first, coming down to orchard and enjoy the atmosphere. well, not really enjoy! LOL. there's some incidents as well. people getting pushed and fell, scoldings and swearings at people who are pushing/no pushing. LOL! but overall, it was fun! the spraying of foam is really an eyeopener. heard from jeff about this incident happened to him last year's christmas eve. LOL! it was super funny.
and then the night ended with a small feast thing with juian's family. and i had sugarcane,carrot cake and fried hokkien mee? LOL! what a supper. thanks juian,once again. for all the lovely memories. and thanks for those who gave me gifts; sean, lovely, gret, juian, weisheng. and those who sent me the lovely christmas cards and wishes! real happy to know that people share the love in this world! =)
and then on the 25th, i attended city harvest's drama event. and it's super nice. having such an event by sharing the meaning of christmas with loved ones is just so heartwarming. and the drama i must say it's their own production, it seemed all so like a musical which can be made into a movie! seriously. and i met up with lovely's classmate, colby and met up with KC. haha!
during the event, when the close the ceremony with a calling thing, the pastor on stage asked those who wish to come back to God or those who had fallen away, i just somehow had tears in my eyes. I know i've not been there with the heavenly father. but i know i'm not ready. i will in years to come, i hope so.
and then after the event, we went to hunt for costumes at bugis. and found a shop at bali lane. gonna get our staff party costume from there! haha.
and so we had KFC buddy meal for dinner. it's so nice yet so freeking filling. LOL!
and on the 26th after work, escape gang and me went to play ETP! LOL. fun ,and i must say nadiah drives REAL WELL! LOL. seriously, i wanna enrol for my driving license in 3 weeks time ;) i'm finally turning 18! HAHAHA.
so yeah, gonna think of how i'm gonna spend my special day with my friends. haven't really thought of how i'm gonna make it special. HAHA! shall work on it ;)
and yeah, here i am today. gonna go down to bugis soon to rent the costume and head down to WWW for staff party. looking forward to see how the escape girls dance their thing!yeahhhh.haha!
