The Happy Us

Merry Christmas

Before that, i was eagerly anticipating Christmas. Afterall, this is the first Christmas that I celebrate by going to mass with Luke and his family, and then to his place for the  presents and food.

I was stunned when I unwrapped my present to reveal this:



Never in a million years did I expect my present to be the camera I've been wanting to get.

"But but you said it was all sold out!! It was sold out at places we saw!"

Turns out he bought the camera a few weeks before Christmas. He didn't know the cameras were really sold out when he told me so. And he deliberately had us to miss the Audio House clearance sales so I wouldn't buy it.

Right now I'm still learning how to get the pictures I want. It's frustrating when I keep getting blurry pictures or under/over exposed photos.

And now, I feel kind of sad that Christmas is almost over. Well, another 6 more days...

Here are some of the better photos I've taken with my new camera

Weekends

The Halloween Saturday was spent at work doing line dance, pigging out at Mac's with W and H before driving over to Vivo. The Boy joined us later and we all had coffee at Starbucks. Then it was scary movies at his place . I fell asleep on his lap while he watched on.

The last weekend was awesome. Spending some quiet times and some noisy times with him, having breakfast together, watching House and Californication. Pure bliss :)

In his words, "Every weekend should be this good."

Christmas Wishlist

The Boy asked "So what do you want for Christmas?"

"I don't know... Never thought about it."

"Well, time to start thinking. Maybe you can give me a list that I can pick from..."

So here I am, jotting down my wishlist.

I wish for a....

• iPhone coz it's fun! Then again, my contract expires in Feb 2010, which means I can upgrade for that then.
• Agnes B long wallet - it's pretty!
• A necklace that won't pluck out 50 strands of my hair each day. I still love the one I'm wearing tho.
• A pet dog that we can care for together. Unfortunately I can't keep a dog at my place so I guess this choice is out of question
• A nice rectangle or square face, metal buckle watch

So far, these are some things that crossed my mind. Maybe my list will expand as Christmas approaches. :D

Her Awesome Weekend

Her awesome weekend started at 7:00am with her losing her temper BIG time, swearing and cursing at someone whom she should not have. She become more grumpy as the incident resulted her in being late. BUT the work went pretty well and her mood brightened up as the clock ticked closer to 2:00pm.

Then it was a long ride to Harbourfront where her newly banked in paycheck allowed her to indulge in a new white bikini which she wore for a swim at The Boy's place. His eyes widened and he nodded in appreciation as he looked at her. A long lazy afternoon at the pool then it was battle time with warcries of "Taste my Pigeon!!!" and "Alleluiiiaaaaa!!". Play Worms and you'd understand what I'm saying. Next was drinks and supper at The Queen & Mangosteen.







Alcohol and fried food don't mix well so it was no go for morning mass. Then again, The Boy probably appreciated the extra snooze :D

Finally washed up and popped over his place with coffee and kueh kueh for him and his family. A long lazy afternoon in the pool and a sunburn later, it was to the church then Vivo. There.... He bought two shirts and she got herself a nice pair of boots from Zara.



And the delicious spinich pizza after shopping pretty much summed up the night.
