the bittersweet symphony of life

 
December, the month of Christmas. 

Lit up Christmas lights, addictive Christmas songs and beautiful decoration set-ups (seriously, it’s like some sort of who-has-the-best-christmas-decors-competition between the major shopping malls); definitely hard not to get one into the festive mood.

As usual, christmas celebration kicks off early with a party in Nottingham.

Guess who’s back, back again?
 
Spice Girls Chocolate Sundae is back and rocking it harder than before~!
Technical stuff I may not know but boy was it an enjoyable performance.

 
We both left our beloved antlers behind.

 
I was pushed by Ren Yii to play a stupid game where you are supposed to dress up one of your team member as …

…a Christmas tree. Kohilan looks like a chicken to me though

  
The dudes from Seafield came too.

Potential clubbing area with pretty lights.

 
We also have our very own sound & lighting masters.

 
The final group picture to end the night.

Next up are celebrations in the gym. Twice in Jaya33 and twice in Taipan.

Launch Day 1 at Jaya33. Since I went there straight from Semenyih and there weren’t any white/red/green sports clothing over there, I had to wear a pants which was threatening to burst during those lunges.

This is body pump. Only 4kgs *shy*.  The woman on my right had 15 kgs wei. We shall not even mention anything about the men.

I so can’t do combat. Tak macam fighter langsung dei. Just to let you know, I’ve changed my pants.

Launch Day 2. Alex and I. sweat = exercise *cough* Some more only 30 minutes of Jam class

Have yet to get pictures from the ones taken at Taipan. Shun and I went full gear with christmas colours and santa hats.

We also went Coffee Bean to (you’ll find out soon enough)…

Moving on, Sunway.

Visit Malaysia 2007. KK and I fought and we stopped talking to each other ever since.

On Christmas Eve, we’ve decided to celebrate at (Alfred, help me out with this will ya?). RM69 to stuff ourselves silly. I don’t even know if it’s worth it or not. Buffets are like pay-to-suffer-thingy. Stupid weighing machine has to break down right now so I have no idea how much I’ve gained.

While waiting for the rest. It hurts not being able to eat the food right in front of you.

That’s the santa headgear I’ve bought to substitute my antlers!

 
Timer power.

Choice of dessert: Anything with a cute figurine on top!

Then, drown figurines one at a time to avoid unwanted attention.

Finally, nonchalantly throw it into the nearest bag and run.

We also had a mini gift-exchange session where we needed to guess who is the giver/sender.

Woots!!! We know each other so well that all managed to guess correctly!
p.s. I shall put full blame on the salesgirl in Mid Valley who was in charged of taking out the price tag before wrapping the gift. BleghX.

For saddist like us who still have a curfew to follow, we didn’t really have much choices for our countdown venue.

On the way to our countdown destination which we have no idea off.

Ended up in good ol’ Summit. And surprisingly one of the bar there was packed to the brim. The other, Bar One was filled with uncles and aunties. So it’s Starbucks for the countdown.

  
Dividing the 10 figurines we’ve taken. This coming from a bunch of young adults.

At home,

The siblings and I entertained ourselves with our chosen-by-us-paid-by-parents-wrapped-by-us-presents hardeehar. It’s like wrapping random buys during the weekend and oh wow wee we have christmas gifts wtf.

 

All the way from UK from Lynn & Soo. I miss you both. It has been a long long time since the 6 of us went out together.

Here’s one from Mr Cheah. His creativity level just keeps increasing. Thank you (although you did not get me the things I’ve requested haha)

Alfred with his headbands. Thanks for not knowing which brand I prefer. At least now I have two headbands
And your bear actually very pweety la

Souvenir from Aunty Yun who just came back from a holiday. But since it was given on Christmas Eve, shall just treat it as a Christmas gift as well.

A cup from my aunt.

Finally…

Oh my oh my. Another FINALLY…Nike Shox Q’Vida with spinnable rubber which has a medial pivot point for turning (that’s what they say la). I’mma bring it out this Friday!!!

Happy New Year (since I’m late for Christmas and Boxing day) my dear kawan-kawan sekalian
