This is a very late update on Christmas,
wasn't around the past week to update the blog.
Well, as usual, the whole bunch of us from Block 35 and Block 20 gather together to celebrate Christmas, but we have few guests this year, namely Steven, Ronald, Quan Bo and Kelly.
We had steamboat for Christmas this year, and once again there was too much food. At times like these, food becomes the penalty for losing in games we play during the party, but I was not involved in any of the games, instead was chatting with other friends who also prefered to stay out of the games.
Then, we had a karaoke session using Cathy's laptop and speakers. Alison started the session with F.I.R.'s Fly Away, the song which she intended to sing in the Chinese New Year Party which the HKMaS is going to organised and ended around 2am in the morning.
Haha.....We were lucky that other residents in the neighbouring blocks were away in their respectively hometown, if not, we would have been reported to the residential manager for being noisy.
Our Christmas party wouldn't be completed without Secret Santa....
Haha....
We had fun last year, so we decided to have it again this year. We draw names a week before the party to know who we are buying presents for and present it to them on Christmas day.
Presents (within or around £5 each)As for me, my Secret Santa was Lai Yee :)
She got me a hand wash and lotion set and a mini reed diffuser which is very cute, I've already opened and used it. The aroma was quite strong is the beginning but now its quite subtle and nice.
Gifts from my Secret Santa - Lai Yee-------
This morning, I was surprised to find a parcel collection note for me.
If I remember correctly, I didn't buy anything online or was waiting for any parcel from my parents.
Curiously, I quickly collected it from the reception.
As soon as I received the parcel, I knew who it was from, my address was hand written
and the hand writing was recognisable.
A flip to the back of the envelop comfrims that it was from a friend in Malaysia.
A friend which I've known since Form 3.
A friend who with we had our happy moments and arguments together,
did our homework and prepared for our major exams together.
The girl who live in Taman Usaha Jaya....
Yen Hong...... No wonder you asked for my address previously.
Thank you for your gift.
It's a very beautiful and special gift which you've made on the 25th of December, mailed it the next day and was meant to be my New Year's present.
Thank you for encouraging me with your thoughtfulness and kindness.
The special gift from Yen Hong.
