Excuse the odd title. Actually, it came from one of Gaia's online mangas, so umm yeah, enough about that. Wanted to blog about yesterday, Christmas and the past few days.

So there I was, inviting people over for Christmas, haha, open day and stuff like that, you know. People ought to be arriving around 2.30 in the afternoon, this and that, according to my mom.

Okay umm, Sunday, 24th, attended evening mass, went for dinner, then went to do a little bit X'mas shopping for ingredients, started peeling onions, mom came home, took a quick shower, went out for the X'mas Midnight mass. Manzy's dad actually encouraged my dad to go too, so yeah, haha.

After mass was over, took some pics, err..tried to locate Jess, to no avail.. and then went home, started cooking, cutting onions and all. Did this all until about 2 - 3am, then went to bed.

Next day, Christmas, sister's birthday, 25th, Monday, woke up around 9am, did some work on my PC, showered, and then went to fetch Min from Bandar, she ate at pasar, and then came to my place. She insisted that she lock herself up in my room and wrap the presents she got for my family, and so I continued on to help my mom with the cooking and all that. About one hour (as stated by my mom, hilariously! XD) Min came out from my den, and helped out as well. My mom seemed exceptionally happy about this... >_>"

Okay, so after that, we took our break, waited for the people to arrive, first up was Ice, around 2.45, and then Louie, 2 minutes after that. Burt arrived shortly after too! After that, Kevin Siaw, and Kenny Siaw, both arrived (friend of my siblings). Well, we had our chit-chats, and then Manzy arrived with Chris, and behind them, Jerome! (With the Xbox of course, now where would J be without his Xbox? XD) Ahem, now, to my disappointment, only 3 of the Dragonz were there, and um, Jess and AJ didn't show up at all. Others had reasons of course, so I wasn't too grumpy about it. Besides! XBOX!!! XD Well, the usual party games we played..Halo 1/2 (No, Not half...), Kungfu Chaos, DefJam..etc.

Well, around 5, Manzy and Chris left, and so did Burt, but we managed to slice the cake, sing the birthday song and all that before they did. What's next is um, well, we played lots of games. The food was okay, if I must say so myself *ahem* =D

By 7.30, Louie left. Jerome's parents were out at some other party, so they couldn't come pick him up till 10. Hmm, the Siaws (pardon me for the bad pun) left around 10.20. Me and Min watched Rozen Maiden, up to 10.45, it rained, so we uh, had to help mom bring the clothes in. Anyways, after that we sent Min home, I bathed, well, then I called her. Talked on the phone till roughly around 1am in the morning and then went to bed as well.

Haha, overall, it was an excellent Christmas! Indeed it was, its going to be unforgettable, it is. I'll be leaving around February, well, not around, probably earlier, so I suppose I'll cherish my time here with my family, friends and loved ones. Hmm, then just recently, I've been recruited by a manga-scanlating group, The Strays. I'm currently working on Blue Dragon Ral Grado, cleaning and all. Until I can do translation, uhh, I'm stuck with cleaning and typesetting. That's cleaning dirty manga pages and giving them the english dialouges, in place of the Japanese ones.

Well, thats pretty much it, I heard from Ang our pendants are ready, and we're getting them this Friday. Going to lunch with Irene, Burt, Chris and Manzy, and then off to see my best mates. Alright then, I guess that concludes this entry, and to all I wish, Merry Christmas, may you have found something within yourself, or within others, now that this year is coming to an end. Hope theres more to next year than I am imagining right now. Lol, night folks.

it's 9:11 PM now
