MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS :D(WARNING: long post ahead)
christmas tree at my hse (credits to: JOY, mummy, auntie & me)
Christmas was HECTIC. i had celebrations 3 days continuous.
22 dec - guides (at me hse) BBQ
23 dec - the clique (at shuxian's hse) steamboat :D
24 dec - family (at me hse) BBQand you can imagine, after eating loads of BBQ food and countless late-sleeping nights, gwendaline is defeated by Mr. cough virus. nevertheless, she's here to blog :D
the first day: 22dec2008PART I:food preparationwhen i came back from school, mich & eunice was already here. shuxian, hani & long-time-no-see eleena joined shortly and we began the preparation! (aherm. i don't want to mention names, but SOME ppl were late. right, ellis & wanru? hahahaha)
poking chicken 'satay' (i thought it was more like kebabs than satay)
DONE! taadaa :D
meanwhile haniza & eleena were...
our beehoon was only possible thanks to them :)
round pit: belachan stingray
long pit: hot dogs, 'satay', chicken wings, mashmellow <3
(however, 好景不长 'cause...)
it became like this after a while.
we stopped cooking and allowed the
younger ones to serve us (hahaha). we ate till
the little nonya started.
PART II: gifts exchangedear joy wrapped names on candy canes and hung them on the christmas tree. we each picked names and find out whose gift we're taking :D & i got... MICHELLE PNG SUMEI. i thought i was going to get a box full of straws sia. (note: insider joke)
i got a super cute watermelon plushie (points at profile pic), which functions as a laptop screen duster and wrist cushion and a nice red pencil case :D thanks mich!
PART III: camera, action!!then we started taking loads and loads of photos with wanru's macbook:
pose.pose.pose.PROPS!
note: the focus is not on the peeps in the first row, but the
MONSTERS BEHIND.the camwhoring session lasted almost forever. then all that was left when mahjong session ended was me and wanru still standing. we ran out of poses so we...
...tried to imitate movies dvd covers :D - this one's on the bone collector.
& after 2 failed attempts - dying young
& hani just have to stand there (boils)
after bath we continued!
what if we all had mustache?
specs maniacs :D
& things turn violent when another member joins in...
(note: that's shuxian :D)
look as if we're advertising for dodo fishball
& finally a normal photo. famous 5.
then we proceed for supper when eugenia lau came (at 2am) for roti prata :D we watched white chicks & pirates of caribbean I till 6am? then we all slept~~
