Xmas 2005

A great Xmas spent at a chinese oriented hotel. Dear bought me a nice office chair! Blue! Got wheels! And mostly importantly, ideal height!!!!

On Xmas eve, we went far east square for lunch. Initially wanted to have spaghetti for lunch, but couldn't find the place! So we settled for our second choice, the hot jap noodles. We checked in at about 1:30pm. Nice room! Cosy, white, comfy and very spacious bathroom with piped in sounds from the tv.. haha.

All the while i was so anxious whether dear has received my Xmas card, and all the while actually she has received it but kept quiet!! Notti baby!! Made me so buay tahan and eager to ask!! But it was meant to be a surprise mah, so i didn't ask loh.. in case she hasn't open her letter box yet. At one point of time, she was fiddling with my lips and making an 'O' shape with it. I was watching tv then and absentmindedly followed her prompt. And she was making some funny patterns for my mouth. It turns out that she wanted me to mouth the words "O and Yel-low", to which i obliged without knowing why. Until suddenly it struck me that these words sounded so familiar!! It was part of a sentence of the contents in my Xmas greeting... hehee... May we be together till the day where we are old and yellow... :)

Silly darling... hehee... what a way to 'inform' me that you have received my card!! Creative lah... ok lah ;)

All these while i was paranoid as to whether she would received the card, because the ink i used to write the address was quite dark... and the envelope was dark red in colour... therefore was worried that the postman would not send it to the correct address!

Finally have some private time with dear le... Xmas time somemore. Meaningful :)

We went for dinner at this Korean restaurant at China Square. Finally got our first taste of Ginseng Chicken. Bagus... *slurp* Dear likes it just as it is.. a little bitterness and herbal chicken taste. I secretly added in some salt when dear was not looking.. hehee.. towards the end of the meal lah :)

The side dishes that came along with the BBQ pork were marvellous. Dear like the anchovies whereas I like their Kim Chi. There were 8 side dishes in total if i didn't remember wrongly. And we were plesantly surprised when they arrived. All taste quite light and were definitely good appetizers for us tat night.

After the rather filled dinner, we made our way to the fruit place and had a serving of papaya and pear. The 'ah beng' boss was so friendly and eager to share with us the health benefits of these fruits. He even let us sample some drinks while we were deciding what to order. Nice customer service.. and he made me feel that this place truly exists for the well being of its customers.

*BurrRRRRp* We took a slow slow stroll back to the hotel. Was comtemplating to go Brewerkz nearing supper time. Wanted to try the assorted beer there.. hehee. Get a beer belly for my dear... so that I can hide my 'BB' (belly button) from dear, so that she can't bully it!!!!

Dear announced that we shall go back and shower and come out again at around 1030pm, so that we can go back room and celebrate the arrival of xmas in private. To which i was puzzled and asked she still has pressies for me. Dear said i am a greedy piggy!

When we got back to the room, i got tired after a while (read: pig)... drifted off to sleep after a nice shower. But i insist that i was not going to sleep for long, as i still want to wish dear merry xmas at first instance when the clock strikes twelve.

A few minutes past twelve, i suddenly woke up to dear's calling. We kissed each other and exchanged greeting. Then dear pointed behind me and asked innocently what that parcel was doing behind me. I turned around and saw a nicely wrapped up present... idiotic dear. Before I unwrapped the gift, i whipped out 2 presents for dear also :)

Gave her a girl boxers (hehee.. notti notti!! :D) and a book on communication (by Larry King, should be easy to read since the font is big). Hope it doesn't make you fall asleep dear! Hopefully this topic can ignite your interest! And hope that it can help you along your career and network management :) To superiors, subordinates, contractors, friends, me, etc :D

Dear gave me a 9 layer xmas tree (yes she means 长长久久!!!) Yay dear!!! A hand made origami! Attached to a little card that has caricatures of both of us! And a lovely pair of bikini, printed with a animal which dear says resembles me. Elephant! Unflattering resemblance! :
But the bikini looks very lovely. Blue... aawww :) Dear purchased it online. And i remembered a few weeks ago, i told her that i wanna go shopping for a new pair of bikinis.... dear remembers.... touching.... haiz... :')

And not to forget, the office chair that dear painstakingly bought, after travelling everywhere to search for the ideal chair. At the same time she gotta bluffed me about her whereabouts, in case i found out about the present beforehand... thanks dearrrr....

Thanks so much for your thoughtfulness darling... u made me feel mportant.... i feel so fortunate that someone is willing to go through so much for me...

Xmas day... breakfast was decent at the cafe. Not over the top. Just nice. We were supposed to check out at 12pm. But due to some *ahem* activities, we were delayed and checked out at 1230pm... too bad :(...... Luckily nobody came to knock knock on our doors... hehehe.

Went to town for food and shopping. Had late lunch at Wisma and shopped at Toys R Us and Taka. Full of pple everywhere. Xmas spirit is still ever so high!

Dear bought a gift for mum... mum liked it alot. A card/handphone holder which can be hung on the neck. Mum previously gave dear a packet of sweets nicely packed in a Heart shaped Precious Moments box. Mum reminded me ever so frequently to give it to dear. Hehe... I am glad... i am very very glad ;)

Love you two so much....
