just got back from church a while ago and today's message was on the true meaning of Christmas..its true that over the years the real meaning has been lost to all that rubbish about santa claus and all and xmas trees and presents and i felt quite guilty sitting in the pews today..oh well...but at least the star and the candy canes still have significance..all's not lost! and carolling brings good cheer..which btw i didnt get to go last night and my head was spinning from too many cocktails half filled with blue liqueur and gordon's gin that i bought for me bro from vietnam..it was hella cheap there..gordon's cost like..8 bucks and over here it costs what..40 and i also got him the smirnoff triple and whatever else rubbish i bought alot home for him..mostly under 20 bucks!! ha half the price of here...and u know a glass of johnnie walker gold in a cafe or bar there cost around a dollar only!!! i could have druhnk and drunk and drunk to my hearts content over there before coming back but of course nobody wants to over drink in a foreign country..
well yesterday was quite amusing..i did some last minute xmas shopping since i just got back anyway..first stop was ikea and i managed to get me bro to buy me a new side lamp for xmas on top of the present he said he'd already gotten..mwahaha and then we went to suntec..lee hwa..kalms..and also bought a new snow spray from one of the shops on the way..and then travelled to ps to buy ribbons from spotlight and unfortunately theyd run out of all the box sizes we needed..g2000 to buy a shirt and cardigan for me ma and pa, lunch..and then to carrefour to get groceries for the party/dinner..was walking round and round the silly mart looking for candles while me bro was just looking in one corner at the party utensils so i went to him and started complaining that we wouldnt be able to find candles when i spotted a whole lot of them silly things right in front of me..arghh...haha at the last minute i decided to buy the little pooh beannies as xmas pressies for those coming for the party and decided i'd just buy the rest later since i prob wouldnt be meeting them anytime soon..later my bro was trying to pay and his silly bill got declined..in front of the whole world and he was like..uh..uh..and of course then it was his little sister to the rescue..heh and we were supposed to buy the poor roasted chickens but the queue was so long we decided to go to cold storage kap..but we got there and they said we'd have to wait an hour..so we left and went to the rail mall and they told us the same so we just gave up..but later in the night my bro managed to get the chicken after all so we didnt have to starve an survive on the christmas ham =)

all apricots reserve their right to be eaten
all peaches plead to be savoured
and the apricots and peaches agree that together, they make the perfect dessert
and indeed, they did.
