Date: Saturday, 24th December 2007
Place: Simin's lovely home at Clementi
Time: 645pm til the next day

530pm:I was soo looking forward to the xmas party at simin's pl. there' was this rule to wear either red or green. and i chose red! and juz b4 i left the house i realised i made an awful mistake of being in red&black completely. there was a red tee wif black skirt, then red nails wif black birks. AND i chose to carry a black handbag and the esp plastic bag-which is red. HORRIFIED! it's juz wrong. had to change it to a nice gold paper bag in the end.

545pm: at the bus stop. i stood. and waited. and waited. and waited. almost 2-3 of evey bus came except the one and only tt i cld board-166 it came like 20min later. argh.

645pm: reached simin's pl.. much to my surprise, sm was still in the midst of cooking.. and ap was helping her in the kitchen while wl was in the living rm doing the tuna on biscuit thing. nope, i didn't help. the host refused to let me do much. so i juz kinda slacked...

this is tiring.. haha. let me try to summarise

yh & lh were late.. it was like 730-745 when the table was finally filled wif food. omg. it was really filled wif food. there was chicken, duck!!!!, spaghetti, garlic bread, mashed potato, veggie, hashbrown!!! it was delicious! the setting and atmosphere was really nice too! and there was the christmas tree!!! dinner was fabulous! yh cracked a joke by asking for some '82 wateva wine... super nice.. too bad sy wasn't present.. and xy was still on her flight back from japan... the dinner was filled wif cold jokes, funny jokes, and reminders for one another to finish up the food!

after dinner... hmm.. think we juz watched some shows on tvb and licensed to wed, which was an alrite show la.. then xy arrived and we took lots of pics... unfortunately, the grp photos are all in wl's cam..... yup.. gift exchange! seriously, i swear i will put in more effort to buy a NICER present in future! sorry wl! wl and xy went to aus and jap respectively so they got us nice and edible souvenirs! :)

oh. then a sm & ap's fren turned up. ya.

then ap and xy went home.. and the rest of us kinda went to sm's rm to sleep... it was an early nite(compared to the slpover wif sw and cheryl...) we were watching harry potter.. but i fell asleep like super early cos the lights were alr out...

woke up really late despite sleeping early... had log cake(my mum made) and this friend potato dish tt sm's mum whipped up(using the left over mashed potato). watched tv... we were all kinda sianed... like stoned. and i had to play pictionary!!!! sm has this art board? those drawing kinds wif a stand.. and i drew! and sm,wl and yh guessed! haha... i had to draw based on wat i played wif sw last time...

tt's abt all... the xmas dinner was prob the best part of the stayover! i'm like so inspired to make a meal for my frens and family too!!!! hmm.. maybe i shall try it out during the hols in mar!!! yea!
