Started my Christmas celebration on 23 December. Ordered in pizza for lunch, followed by gift exchange among my fellow colleagues. I picked Adira, gave her a Faceshop Christmas set (it's a blusher cum lip gloss). Anna picked me, gave me a Starbucks cup with sweets and chocolates inside (I haven't taken a photo of it yet. Lazy lah, k?) Am very pleased with my present xD Heehee~ The other presents were all pretty good, shall not elaborate here since it has nothing to do with me. (Haha~ later the post is too long.)

Debbie gave me sweets from The Candy Lab. The sweets are so cool, with words written on it!! Amy gave me chocolates. Didn't expect her to give me something.

Met Onyee and Rachel at Soup Spoon at ION Orchard after work. I was the earliest to reach (ta-da! I am the early bird =P). After dinner, Onyee and Rachel got chocolates for their colleagues (I got for mine yesterday) while I got chocolates for Robin. Don't know what to get him and I really have no time to really shop for presents for him. Haiz~ I prefer shopping for presents for girls. It's always easier. Anyway, I will make up for it.

After shopping, we went to Applebee's for a drink. I remembered that I went to Applebee's with Jeanette in US. The drink was nice and the place was nice. Anyway, the food there seems pretty good. Onyee and Rachel shared a sangria (can't remember what sangria they drank) while I drank a non-alcoholic drink (can't be helped. I'm still taking my antibiotics and cough syrup.) Then we exchanged presents. Got a lipgloss for Onyee from The Faceshop which she wanted. Am glad that she likes it. Rachel got me a water bottle and merci chocolates. She gave us each a $10 Capitamalls voucher. Thank you, appreciated =) By the way, Onyee got rashes from drinking the sangria. Lucky, it's not itchy and she recovered from it quite fast.

On 24 December - Christmas Eve. Had an inter-department fruit challenge. We were supposed to use fruits to make a dessert/appetizer/something and compete within the company. Anyway, our department made Verrine. This reminds me of Verlene. Haha~ Anyway, for those who don't know what is verrine, please go and google it. Hee~

Somehow, I was arrowed to present for our department last minute. WTH lah. Nervous, nervous. Anyway, we didn't win anything. IT won the first with their very nice and creative fruit fondue. Their Christmas tree was so nicely made lah. Finance won second and HR came in third. Had Christmas buffet lunch later. Received sweets and chocolates from fellow colleagues. Gave out my chocolates too =) By the way, my boss gave me a charity calender. Not a bad idea as a Christmas gift. Maybe I can consider it next year.

We ended work at 3pm that day. Robin went with me to IMM for my 紫微斗数 session. He was not able to go in with me, so I went in alone. As this post is getting so long, I shall not elaborate what the 师傅 told me. I find that some of the things she said are quite accurate. Scary man. Please don't ask me what okie? *secret secret*

Met Verlene and Sammie boy at 313 Somerset for dinner. We had dinner at this place called Hot Tomato Cafe & Grill. As usual, Desmond is late (late king lor). The food is not bad. The boss/manager is quite pretty (can't help noticing her) but cold. After dinner, we decided to go to Harry's at The Esplanade to drink and chill. Robin ordered Long Island and gulped it down. Then his face was soooo red. Alamak. Told him to order beer, he don't believe me. Want to follow what Desmond ordered. I ordered Cherry something.. Again, non-alcoholic. See, I'm so guai but.. why hasn't my cough improved? It seems to be getting worse! Boo!! =(

We played truth or dare. Made a few discoveries during the session. Amazing! We missed the countdown to Christmas. By the time, we realised it, it's 12:05am. Anyway, nobody was counting down in the pub either. So not happening.
