Post Christmas Post

Well, Merry Christmas And A Happy New Year People. Sorry, No Poems This Time Around.

A Christmas Eve Well Spent On My Part, I'd Say. Celebrated At Shangee's Place Where We Had Loads Of Food, Fun And Insomnia.

The Day Started With Me Doing Really last Minute Shopping For The Night's Gift Exchange Session. Being Me, Who's Got No Experience In Buying Stuff For People, I Spent Close To 2 Hours Wondering Around Times Square Aimlessly, Trying To Figure Out What Would Be The Best Present To Give That Anyone Could Use. Finally Got It, But Since The Shop's Got No Wrapping Paper, I Decided That Taping The Small Plastic Bag Real Tight Would Do The Trick. Rushed Home After Catching The Movie 'Bodyguards And Assassins', A Story About The Guy Responsible For The Chinese Revolution Against The Ruling Dynasty And The People Involved In Ensuring He Does His Job Safely.

By The Time I Got Home, It Was Already Time To Leave For Shangee's Place, But Due To Delays For Multiple Reasons, We Got There At About 7, And Only Then Did We Actually Began Cooking. What Did We Cook? 3 Packs Of Spaghetti With 2 Different Sauces And Loads Of Nuggets And Frankfurters. And So The Cooking (And Food-Theft) Went On Until Close To 11.30p.m While We Waited For Everyone To Arrive. And So The People Who Were Present Were:

I Myself, Yong Kang, CK, Yao, Yiting, Shangee The Host, His GF Yee Ping a.k.a Yainka, His Housemate Chun Hong, The Guy's GF Donica, Vincent, The 3 PJ Gals Abby, Esther And Another Of Their Housemates Whos Name I've Forgotten (So Very Sorry About That), A Grand Total Of 13 People.

And We Ate, Crapped And Listened To Kenny G's Christmas Pieces While Waiting For Midnight.

This Here's The Front Door.
The View From 18 Floors Above Ground.
Some Of The Decorations, The 3rd Being The Never Ringing Bell.
The Effect Would've Been Great If I Could Get A Pic Of The Fan Spinning, Which I Can't... Why Isn't The W902 Equipped With CyberShot!?
The Christmas Tree That Came All The Way From Port Dickson, Supposedly. Stacked To Waist-Height With Newspaper LOLZXD.
The Whole Reason For The Gathering, Albeit Very Much Welcoming All Others Present.
And The Ultimate Cocktail Of The Night!!!
Anyone Can Guess The Ingredients?
*Drums Roll*
Loads Of Fruits, 4.5 Litres Of Ice-Cream Soda And 1/2 Can Of Guiness Stout. The Hardest Part Was To Equalize The Alcoholic Taste With That Of The Lemon So That It Doesn't Taste Too Awkward. Result? A Masterpiece. Recipe By Si Panjang Himself. Gourmets: Si Panjang And I ';..;'
And Of Course, One Masterpiece Deserves Another. A Cake Baked Personally By Esther. IF You'd Tasted It, You'd Never Believe It Was Home-Baked.

So When We Were Done With All The Foam Spray And Such After The Clock Hit 12, We Got On The The Gift Exchange Session. Worrying That Mine Was Less Relevant Due To The Fact That I Decided On It In A Rush, I Openly Declared That The Gift Would Be Of Use To Anyone Except Me. And So We Drew Lots To Decide Who Gets Who's Present. And When I Got Donica's Present, Chun Hing Asked Me A Real Awkward Question:

"Do You Have A Girlfriend?"
"No..."
"Well Then, Here's Wishing You Get One Soon XD"
"Okay...?"

When It Was Time To Open The Gifts, I Realize What He Meant.
One Very Similar To The One I Got For The Night, Which Was Received By Him Later. And So The Night Ended, Or So It Did For Some, While Others Stayed On For DotA Sessions Until It Was 6a.m Or So.

A Few Facts Before I Conclude This Post:

1. This Is Probably The Post Most Heavily Loaded With Pics This Blog Has Ever Seen And Will Ever See.
2. As Shangee Himself Plays The Guitar, Chun Hong Does The Keyboard And Violin. A House Of Musicians, I'd Say.
3. This Post Was Not Published On Christmas Because I Was Supposed To Sleep The Whole Day The Moment I Got Home, But Was Instead Dragged Out By Father To Eat Some 'Exquisite Food'. Spend More Than 12 Hours Sleeping On Christmas Day, 8pm Onwards.

Ever Since Returning From Kampar My Emotions Have Once Again Been On A Roller Coaster. I'm As Ignorant As Ever If It's For Better Or Worse, But I've Been Having Sleepless Nights Since. From Tragic Love-Story Nightmares To Day-Dreaming In The Shower. A Symptom Of Home Sickness, Perhaps? Or Something More... Direct? I Don't Know. All I Do Know Is That The Result Of This Fluctuating Heart Has Led Me To Doing Really Bizarre Things, Things That I'd Never Do Under Normal Circumstances, Like Bugging Mom To Get Me A PS3, Something I've Given Up On For A Whole Year Already. Sometimes Things Go A Little More Extreme, Like The Urge To Buy A Life-Sized, Razor-Edged Replica Of Yamato （閻魔刀） Of Devil May Cry Off E-Bay And Go Omnislashing Like Crazy. And This Afternoon While Accompanying Father To Low Yat To Look For His New Anti Virus, I Saw The Razer Imperator On Sale And Suddenly Came This Urge To Just Grab It Together With A Lycosa Mirror Edition And A Megasoma, Then Flee The Scene.

And As New Year Draws Nearer, It'll Probably Be The First New Year That I'll Have A New Year's Resolution: Creating A FaceBook Account, Seeing As How The Votes Have Been Stuck At 48:1. Well, It's Open Until New Year's Eve, So Keep Them Coming, People!

So Until Then, Adieu To Y'all.
