Post-exam + Early Christmas Party

Finally! I'm back and yes, I owe you readers and this blog an update since I'd been missing in action for quite a long time already.

Well, exams..don't really wanna talk about it actually. Some were manageable somewhat, some were difficult in their own unique ways, some were just difficult 'coz I was not well prepared. Sigh.. *prays hard* Well, I'll have to work really hard next year due to certain factors. So.. *prays even harder* T.T uuuu...

Holidays started with.. *think think* I don't remember.. @@ Well, I know I tried playing some PS2 (yeah, it's horribly dusty x.x) but I kept dying in every game. So sad... = ='ll Then the next day...was somewhat a productive day although Kendo was hell. T.T Now I'm all achy.. I even had to wake early today (most likely slept three hours only) to send my mom off to KLIA. x.x She's in India for holiday. ^^ Mom, enjoy yourself ya! =3

Just few hours back I attended my boss's (Mr Chang, although I prefer to call him boss. xp) very early Christmas party. I was a 'lil reluctant to go actually since I still lack sleep and don't really wanna go anywhere but I went after all and it was a good choice. =) I was the third, I think, to arrive although I thought I was late already. ^^'ll Felt a 'lil ackward since 'ice-breaking' ceremony had yet to come. While waiting, I became my boss's temporary doorkeeper. Buka door when orang datang. = ='ll Need to charge him liao.. *evil laugh* Kidding. =p

When all arrived, the dinner menu was announced to be....Popiah!! And only popiah. Hahahahah!! The special thing is...we have to wrap the popiahs ourselves. That was challenging. @@ The whole objective was for us to practise wrapping those popiahs so we can make a so-called decent one for the competition. Yup, we're playing with our food. xD xD The popiah contest was split to two categories. One being the BIGGEST popiah and another being the most creative popiah to resemble a Christmas tree. x.x I entered into the creative one of course after having the experience of an over-loaded trial popiah. Hahahah. Me greedy. =p

I tried to make a standing Christmas tree popiah. It looked more like a 'jung' (Chinese dumpling) instead. = ='ll So I wrapped around it with lettuce to make it look green and added chilli drops for 'ornaments' (Note: I had to eat my own creation later. @@). I also added small pieces of papaya as the 'presents'. First time in my life I had papaya... = ='ll Then again, I believe as I grew up, I often ignored the taste of many things. Just chew chew chew, swallow. ^^'

Anyway, the conclusion of the contests. For the BIGGEST, there were only two participants. xD xD So the guy won although the girl's was neater. The creative, some guy named Handsome. Yup..it's for real. = ='ll And I thought he was joking at first. Bet he must be very perasan. *shrugs* The prizes were cash prizes. >.<>

There were also presents for everyone. =3 I got the 'biggest' and it was a decorative Christmas tree. ^^' Then there's carolling. The carol song list...40 songs?!! Crazy!! Of course we only sang 4. *phew, wipes sweat* Oddly I was rather nervous there. Most likely 'coz I didn't know few of the songs and wasn't really sure about my voice. >.<>

Everyone was chatting after all the excitement. That was when the house was really noisy. @@ But not as noisy just yet...some of us made it worse, mainly my boss's daughter, me and another two ladies. =p We were playing 'Split' with Uno cards. xD Got so excited and fun that we made so much noise on our own by laughing sampai my boss's wife came out jawdropping. xD xD Had to force ourselves to stop the game. Hahahahah!! And we left the house saying that we have to practise more at home in preparation for next year's party. xD xD Geng!!

Oh!! Before I forget, we had DELICIOUS desert. ^^ Someone in the group made caramel...something...cake. xD Topped with chocolate. Mmmm~~ It was truly sinful. xD My boss's wife even gave me some to take home although those weren't with the chocolate topping. It was still as good! *daydreaming look* Hahahaha.

Well, that's all for today and it's late. Need sleep... *crawls to bed* x.x
