Happy New Year! it's 8 more days to home and friends and family and food and my dearest angel-dog! arh and 16 days to me bday! wheeee oh joy oh joy!
but then... tlp needs to start packing soon! help! i hate packing, and the room is still in one big frigging mess! arghhhh.... anyway... hehe here are e presents stef and me got for e household:
i received 4 pairs of earrings (one can nv have too many pairs of earrings!), one organiser, 2 tops, 1 box of truffles (from alex, who got a travel hangman set in return - e kris kringle turned into a gift exchange.. hehe), one toothbrush which lights up for 60 secs (to ensure that you're brushing your teeth for the correct amt of time - courtesy of HR), a "star wars" cd, a sweet magnet, a set of 4 mugs for e household, and a pooh photoframe.
xinyi bought a therapeutic footspa (e water massager thingy) for e household! which is still sitting in the hallway.. she says its for us to relax after our long walks to school and stuff..
tricia wins hands down though.. she bought her own household a ricecooker. that lucky rice cooker is gg travelling ard australia with them man.. dunno how in the world they're gg to lug it to sydney, then back to perth.. ahhha madness. they have another huge box to lug back too - a chocolate fondue set tt steph and me bought for them.
so here's us at our belated xmas dinner, which ended up being held on boxing day instead thanks to previously mentioned traffic problems:
and shopping!
and our first group dinner @ shanghai dumplings (or so i think) in chinatown on christmas day, after we gave up the idea of rushing home to cook:
phototaking at docklands!
oooh there's a cow in the tree! papa sil says it's a famous structure/piece of art thingy.
more grp photos
and tlp made papa join in the fun of posing with that channel 7 thingy cos the others were so excited abt it, even though e 2 of us never ever watch tv. the main switch of my tv had been turned off for like e past 4 mths, and only got turned on again yesterday when HR wanted to watch it in my room.
and e tom yam soup which temporarily satisfied my thaifood craving.. tlp and stef are definately gg to thai express man... *mmmmm*
had caregrp in bundoora park today, and buried a timecapsule (i.e. an altoids tin) about our dreams/goals/plans/hopes for the coming year. sharing was about power and courage, and love, which is e root of everything. was e first caregrp tlp attended in 6 whole weeks. but oh well, it's a good start to a new year. =) e weather today was good too!
then we went for an all-u-can-eat dinner @ sophia's... whined about my poor hungry tummy all e way there, and anthony was like: one more time and you're gg home.. sounded like a papa.. ahha but e all-u-can-eat is serious stuff... by e end of e meal, tlp realised how anthony + the remains of all u-can-eat + the number game = pure evil! man... i'm ready to burst!
and there's 0$ in my wallet now! arhhhhhh
had this nearly full length stephen-king-movie style nightmare yesterday. dreamt i was with xinyi, and that ppl were turning into zombies, and we were just running running running in what seemed like a HUMONGOUS house with endless rooms and storeys, until we came to the topmost room, which somehow morphed into a room in this country style cottage on top of a grassy mountain/hill, and we were looking out of e window to see if we were safe, and whether we should go climb out of e window to walk back to e city. then a few cars drove up, all wrecked (like after a zombie attack), and we decided to stay in e house, and were joined by another family with 3 sons (e eldest was e meanest, hmmmmm) and the dream just went on and on and on until i woke up at 12ish again. nightmares are tiring stuff.
