Christmas Party - in the Office

I am appointed photographer ... what a pressure. Well, it does put my camera and flash to good use. Each department decorated their own spaces and it was quite a refreshing change to the whole office.

What went on were food, wine, songs and gift exchanges.




And here's what I got:

My knee's acting up ... again

I thought I will never experience that pain again ... it started as a slight throbbing pain in the knee on Monday - I must have knocked against something ... Rested at home on Christmas. It was feeling good yesterday. But it's unbearable now ... the level has not reached that of 2 yrs back but it just as bad ... hope it gets better tomorrow ... gotta keep the camera at home ... lighten the load.

What does Christmas Day mean to us?

Merry Christmas!

Apart from the fact that today is a public holiday, it's also my sister's birthday! Ho ho..This is what this day means to me and my family...special & of birthday cakes and candles, not so much of Christ, turkeys and log cakes...

Look at what Ah Boy gave to his mum for X'mas and for her birthday this year:
A rainbow dog he calls it and colourful hand-written words of birthday wishes, probably his first birthday gift for her...

Happy Birthday, sis! :)

Gifts for myself...

Hehe it's the season of giving, can't help it...I bought these for myself while shopping for christmas presents! :D

Seikisho Mask White 75 ml, $35
Ha, it's BLACK whitening mask! It has gotten the Woman's Weekly Best Beauty Buy award for 2005 and 2006 consecutively... plus the shop assistant told me it's effective for my blackhead problem, how could I resist? It's really a steal at $35!

WHITE SUCCEED Washing Cream 125ml, $49
My Shisheido washing foam is almost used up, I thought I could give this a try...

Christmas Party

What a feast again. Truly, there can never be a way to work off these calories gain in Nov and this month. Pork knuckles from Paulaner Brauhaus, honey-glazed pork ribs, honey-baked ham, sushi, log cake, chicken wings, sotong ball, fried beehoon ... there was so much left-over!





The most excited must be my nephew, who kept attacking the ebi sushi. Of course, he also had lots of presents.

Christmas Cake

The christmas cakes are getting better dressed each year. Doesn't this look so cute that you can't bear to cut it up?

A Cute Duck

I think it's a penguin more ... hehe, it's very cute but too ex ... ouch, at $44+.

Gift Exchange

It's the time of the year where there are gift exchanges everywhere. So we got down to some last minute shopping. It's took me the about 3 min+ to wrapped up each. Hmmm ... still can be improved on eh ...



And on Monday, I'll be the appointed photographer for the company's Christmas party ... pressure ... hope photos turn up well ...

I saw Santa Claus this Christmas!

Yup, Santa was present at the Company X'mas Party today!

Ho! Ho! Ho! Here's me posing with Santa! :)


Signing in to the X'mas Party...


There're games, prizes to be won for finding Santa's lost bell...


And good food from Four Seasons... Yummy hams, cheese cakes and tarts, turkeys and oh, chocolate fondue...


And of course, what's a X'mas party without gift exchange? Guess what I got for myself?

It's a toiletry set... That's Santa behind me without his beard... after the game, Santa lost his beard and requested us to search for it.. Ho..ho..ho.. :P
