This year is by far the one which I bought the most no. of gifts, have the most no. of Christmas Parties/Gatherings & also the one which I rec'd the most no. of gifts!!
Kickapoo Zero from YJ & the gift with purple wrapper is from my boss, Karen.
I'm the kind who likes to open his presents only on Christmas Day. So I refused to open the gift no matter how many ppl are interested in knowing what's in the wrapper.
I got the BIGGEST shock when I opened the gift at 12am+. My mum who was opening her gift beside me got a shock frm my mousey shriek too.
Look at what my boss got me?!?!
S.H.E's album with a collection of their songs! 3 discs in total & 19 songs on each disc. I've never seen this version in Singapore! Cool, isn't it?! U need to see the seductive look in Hebe's eyes. I'm so in love with my sexy Hebe! OMG!
CHOCOLATES!!!
Gold bar from my "mistress", Murs.
The Hershey's & Magic Creams were from Audrey.
This person took a VERY BIG risk in buying these items.
Simply b'coz grade A friend NEARLY got the same items for me & most ppl knows Eagle Ivan LOVES Chip n Dale! Plus, these Chip n Dale items are selling at almost EVERYWHERE in Sg! Any 2 persons may just buy the same Chip n Dale items for me. However, this is the 1st set of towel & memo pad I've received. Thanks, my dearest 旧爱, Stace TYL!!
BUT STILL, I need to emphasize, "U're no longer the one I love most." wahaha *lol*
Pressie from Cyn!
What's in the fun pack?
Chocolates & Candy Bar!
To all who sent their warmest wishes or/and bought me presents, thanks for making my Christmas really super MERRY! It's not abt the pressies, it's the thoughts that matter most. =)
So gona head to M'sia in afew hrs time to spend Christmas there this year.
May all my dearest readers have a WONDERFUL Christmas!! Have fun!! I'll pray for all to have their wishes come true. So, start making your wishes now!! v(^_^)o
Cute mini carebears!
In case, little cuzzies feel left out from our Christmas exchange, I bought these softies for them. =P
At the multi-storey carpark at my housing estate, I saw a Mitsubishi Lancer EX with the whole care bear series at its dashboard! How cool is that!
Perhaps, I shld place my Ferrari Cars series on my dashboard too. But hmm. . .Exposure to sunlight wld make the color fades, better think twice before acting. ^_~
Can u hear the jingle of Santa's bell? Can u smell the scent of gingerbread? Christmas is nearing & oh how excited I'm getting!! Heez =D
This year, is by far the most number of Christmas exchange gatherings I ever had. And it's prob the most number of Christmas gifts I've ever bought. -_-" But well, a smile on the receiver's face is the best reward for me. =)
施比受更有福！Let's share the joy of this festive season by giving wat we can!
Can't wait to feel the joy of those who receives my gifts this year. d(^_^)b
Here's another e-zine article I rec'd from Josh Hinds.
Take some time to read, absorb, think abt your current habits & make changes where necessary. A new year is coming, perhaps it's just the right time to create a NEW you with BETTER habits too?
Let's begin with the painfully obvious truth:
- Successful people have successful habits.
- Losers in life have loser habits.
- Habits are behavior, and behavior never lies.
- Your habits determine you're your past, present and your future.
- If you want change in your life, you must change yourhabits.
Let's do a simple fill in the blank exercise to determine how well your current habits are serving you.
Here's a health related example with two possible answers:
- My health, exercise and eating habits have... turned me into a firm, energetic and unstoppable powerhouse.
- My health, exercise and eating habits have... turned meinto a flabby, lethargic and unmotivated person.
Now, take a few moments to answer these questions regardingyour habits.
1. My savings and spending habits have...
2. My sales and marketing habits have...
3. My relationship habits have...
4. My parenting habits have...
5. My time management habits have...
6. My demonstrated leadership habits have...
7. My communication habits have...
8. My work habits have...
So, how did you do? Are your habits helping or hurting your performance?
The one true path to success and happiness in life is to change your behavior by replacing your bad habits with positive habits that move you in the direction that you want.
It's easy for me to say that if you keep doing what you've been doing, you'll keep getting what you've been getting, so change your behavior.
And that's exactly what I'm going to tell you to do-just change!
I want you to look at your results year to date, right now--today and determine what habits you must change in order to secure a better tomorrow.
Don't procrastinate as that's a destructive habit that is definitely not worth repeating as it bears no desirable fruit and most likely will lead to regret and missed opportunity.
Everything Counts!
Eagle Ivan *gives himself a pat* on the back, "Clever Boy!"
It doesn't look as easy as it seems!
But luckily, I tried with Mummy's one 1st; the rest were MUCH MORE simplified as it was really diff to cut out the wordings.
I assumed Mummy don't read my blog, so here I'm showing u folks the Christmas present I've make for her. =)
Well, I think I am. I get excited over the slightest thing. I laughed for the longest time over a silly joke, Qiqi said I'm easily amused. Penguin Dancer, JX said my laughter is contagious. =P
It was a Christmas shopping spree for me today! Along with Grade A friend, I went in search of all the Christmas presents I'm supposed to buy. It was fun buying them. But definitely nt having to carry 4 big bags of loot back when u're not driving.
Bt at least, I shld be thankful that it was nt raining when I came home. On a positive note, I think tis is by far the longest distance & hours I've ever walked for these 2 mths. Just treat it as an exercise well done. =)
Qiqi went JB to meet her JBK & came back with an addition to my Tomy Car's collection!
It's a Pocket Monsters Bus!!
Qi said, "Next time, go JB to buy Tomy car, it's CHEAPER!"
Okok, point noted. I shall go buy a car boot full of Tomy cars the next time. v(^_^)o
Grade A friend's Christmas prez to me!
A Chip & Dale mat, but how wld I bear to step on them? So, she suggests sticking them on the wall. Let's see if I can stick them up as the mat is abit heavy, need to tink of a way to make them stay on the wall.
And a Chip & Dale photo frame + alarm clock + mirror!!
My sons are on the calendar!
Ask & u shall have it! Heez =P

It's time to fill up my calendar with impt dates for next year!!
All the b'days, gatherings, anniversaries, etc. ^_~ This calendar comes with sticker to paste too! Dun envy, just go get it from Action City!!

Why do I still have to go through this?
When I received my diploma in year 2003, I thought I was finally FREED from books, notes & exams!
All the pulling of hair, late night revision with caffeine overdose, dark rings & not forgetting killing my brain cells - The mental torture process is BACK!
My aging memory might not be able to take it, any kind soul wana donate some tonic for me?
Exams is on Thurs & I'm still not even 1/2-way through + I'm still not into my revision mood YET!
However, I'm still aiming for at least 80 & above to keep up with my last sem results.
Would Buddha pls have mercy on me & help me pull through this time? =P Heez
Last Sat, I was observing 2 kids at play. There were some differences between them.
One's a Singaporean, the other's a Malaysian.
One merely wanted someone to play with her while the other though didn't like the game offered by the former kid, played along just to entertain her.
They were playing bricks; one insisted on following the instructions given to build exactly to the model. The other wana build something using her own imagination.
One speaks English & the other speaks Mandarin. They don't see eye to eye on the design of the model.
So, one slowly leave the play area, leaving the other to play by herself & design whatever way she wants.
After the one being left behind has finished building the model, she went in search for the other girl.
This time, they turned to playing soft toys. In no time, they became like friends who have known each other for the longest time & was playing like crazy.
At that instant, a thought flashed through my mind, "If only adults could get along well with each other despite the differences between us."
How many times have we tried to persuade/force others to think the same way as us?
We've forgotten that, "At times, we should agree to disagree. Make PEACE not WAR."
Quote S.H.E's song, 《美丽新世界》, "应该学习婴儿,再宽容一点,哭过就忘了.别再记著昨天还有什么悲伤..."
