a season of giving


so this year i decided not to go back home for Christmas. 
pls dun ask me why coz i sincerely think that the idea of staying in Melaka sucks too.
but oh Thank God for the wonderful friends who spent Christmas week with me here :D

on Dec 22nd, The Lalings had our Pre Christmas Dinner at Eleven Bistro&Restaurant somewhere in Jonker Street. 


baked squid, fried brinjal, debal's curry, fried four angled bean :)


and oh, just when i thought i successfully hypnotized myself that i am getting younger, farra & adoe surprised us with a super belated bday celebration pulak =.='' 
haha anyway, thankyou so much farra & adoe for the yummy Lemon Mille Crepe & Strawberry Cheesecake Souffle :D yums!


the gift exchange ceremony. lol

 


my three fav munyits/munkeys *less than three*


ah, finally a group picca. (..yg blur. damn u waiter!)


nah, a clearer group pic :D

after dinner, we went for a walk at Portuguese Settlement & camwhore our heart out (?) kekekeke




on Dec 24th, the Butterflies were invited for a Christmas Eve Dinner at Aaron's house.


repair, mother and me! (boo me cannot drink wine. meh.)


SUUPAA-HUGE TEDDY BEAR!

eh no group picture leiii!!! FOL >.<

i have to leave early that night coz kononnya nak attend midnight mass but i tersalah info about the timing damn you auntie cafe. i end up tersalah masuk mandarin mass which ended 10minutes after i datang. FML.
then otw balek campus, got stuck in jam at town for almost an hour. FFFFML (T__T)

anyhoos, i managed to attend the Christmas Day Mass at St Theresa Church on the very next morning with Glenn & Dr Saptarshi (itu dentistry faculty punya lec). phew.
then we went for a christmas lunch at Kenny Rogers, belanja-ed by the doc (o.O)


everybody scream "FREEEE MEEEAAALL~!" :D 
thankyou so much sir. see u around in campus n belanja me at the cafe pulak. lol ;p

Then on christmas night (which was last night), we had a potluck style picnic at the football field in d campus with Wayne yg bajet strong taknak balik for christmas jugak.


THE MENU
adoe: tomato sauce spaghetti with sausages & mushrooms
farra: salad bowl with thousand island dressing
wayne: fruit cocktail
me!: honeydew & kiwi for good bowel movement yeah.




we had fun eating & gossiping with Michael Buble super christmassy songs playing in the background.
it was super windy last night naseb baek tak hujan. a very nice weather for a night picnic :)

camwhore pics alert ;p





***************************************************************

Christmas wont be complete without sharing gifts, kan?
two weeks before christmas, i've started preparing em & i made these nameplates with personalized messages at the back of em for each & everyone of u in MMMC who matters to me :)

just to make things clear, for my Muslim friends who are skeptical about the gifts, please be informed that this has got nothing to do with my religion at all. it's true that Christmas is all about the birth of Christ, but the act of giving pressies is just a tradition. just like u guys handing over green packets on Hari Raya.
so fret not ur pressies are not at all coated with Holy Water or watsoever k. lol

i dun think u guys pernah fikir laen pun when i give u pressie kan? but just in case someone else tegur u for accepting my humble gifts, u know how to explain, okie? :)

 

in the making ba ini. ada yg tak siap lagi ;p


pretty ey? lol angkat bakul sendiri. hope u guys like it :)
i had fun making each & every one of the nameplate.
it's these little things that makes me happy..and i hope it'll make you guys happy too :D

*****

and these are some pressies i got this year :D
