A very busy Christmas this year, work notwithstanding. 4 days off and I'm already finding it hard to find my footing again. Anyway, the season was kicked off with an office celebration. Both of my bosses chipped in some $200 per person for us to spend a very Neway Christmas at One Utama. Roll your eyes, roll your eyes. 20 of us in a giant KTV room with 1 big screen TV, 2 flat panels and 6 mics. A buffet dinner. Everyone wore red. Everyone brought gifts. Much horsing about, especially during the random gift-giving part of the night. Before the recipient could receive his/her gift, the giver will dish out some kind of request. Here's a few fun examples:

1) Down sushi with copious amounts of wasabi
2) Down a big slice of lemon
3) Girl on girl action (just a kiss!)
4) Down a raw oyster (no biggie, except that it's not very fresh! hanyir giler!)
5) Sing a song
6) Stuff mouth with as many prawn crackers as possible

Started at 6pm, ended at 2pm. All a bit zombified the next day.

Other than that, I also spent 2 days gallavanting around the Old Klang Road area, carolling to raise some funds. Was kinda hoarse after the first day, but it was oodles of fun. At one house we went to, just so happened that the neighbours were having a Taoist funeral and we were all in red! Macam nak cari pasal, you know. We just bowed our heads and quickly headed in. The last house, we did for free. Some kids were having a BBQ, so we just sang a few
songs to mark the end of our carolling.

Christmas eve was spent visiting my cousin and niece at Calvary Church's annual Christmas concert. This year's title is "The Perfect Gift". I came very early, so enjoyed the free fellowship breakfast and caught some of the rehearsal. The set has been pared down this year, but the paper's report it as a no less stunning affair. At night, enjoyed the cantata at St. Ignatius Church. On Christmas day itself, I was invited to an open house of SK's colleague (tebal muka I, kan?). A Portugese experience. Great food-- chapati, pork vinderloo, mutton curry, raita and mixed vegetables. Had a helluva
Christmas cake too... Had brandy in it... emmmm. All sorts of liquor served during high noon-- beer, red wine, whisky and brandy.

A "friend" of mine invited me to his house for a New Year's eve BBQ. But seeing that he FFK me twice in a week by giving some lame excuse, I have decided not to trust the idiot anymore. Can't believe a single thing that comes out of his mouth it seems. Starting out, I took everything he said with a grain of salt, moving on, I think I don't wanna risk hypertension.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas and good New Year to come.
