Xmas 2013
On to happier posting here's a FLOOD of snapshots. To everyone mentioned you're awesome!
And who was the first person to wish me?
BESTIE
Surprise!! He's always first to wish on the eve of Christmas. I didn't expect him to remember this year, considering that he has a girlfriend now. Hahaha I am feeling bitter lah. I was scammed a couple of times to JE in the past. But these days he is forever at Ang Mo Kio why????? Because Janice stays here! Lazy asshole! It's okay. He is a good boyfriend I am very proud of him. He sews and DIY plants for his girlfriend's mommy, wah how sweet is that. :D
BELLY AND BOM.
Not so young and dangerous anymore. Though I'm always joking he left me behind by getting into a relationship before me (we broke up about the same time 3 years ago), I am really happy to see him blissfully in love. I guess I've been moving at snail's pace. It's nice to know good friends remember you even while they progress on to another stage in life. We don't talk as much, of course. But to receive occasional texts, hmmmm or "AMK WHERE GOT GOOD SALON AH BOM?" HAHAHAHA, is still very heartwarming. I haven't kept many male friends close since I was in a girls' school for nine years. I usually don't confide in boy-friends either, unless they become boyfriends. But Yaohui has watched me wither and helped me stand strong again. I kind of miss those dreary messages filled with a wise old man's point of view. For bothering to check on me, all that and more, MERRY CHRISTMAS BESTIE.

Christmas isn't Christmas without family. We celebrated it over two days. At the Reebonz sale, Punkie dropped me a fat gift. I have never been obsessed with brands. It's me being weird but I find a lot of the big names boring. GUESS Gucci Louis Vuitton Burberry Coach and yup, Chanel too.
Something about that standard template I dislike.
I would much rather spend on Prada, Balenciaga, D&G, Tory Burch, Michael Kors!! Hahaha okay seems like I am a little into brands after all. While Sue and I awkwardly tried to blend into hundreds of women gawking at bags, Punkie sneakily bought me my Christmas gift.....
AAHHHHHHH no one knows me better.
I love it. The color, texture, functionality and simple design.
She also got me a set of pretty earrings! Thank you Sissy!

Countdown to Christmas with Bananas. Non-existent now but I have referred to them as Bananas for so long.
TAAAADAH
The logistics of everything here has changed. The main reasons as to who and what made this group my priority are more or less gone. Gone wouldn't be the right word. To say it is out of my grasp would be appropriate. But there are friendships to cherish in this group I called second family. Sometimes just being around, watching the action from the side is enough to make me smile. There is a lot of warmth in the atmosphere.
The gift exchange took hours!
WonderFoo present that never left my side!
I couldn't participate. No one would take a second look at my wonderful X'mas present. So I took photos instead.
Round and round.
It was a disturbing game to watch. Hahaha.
BOOMZ of selfies
For being ultra possessive, protective to stay close.
The fire in you makes you you, keep it up!
Maureen
Thank you for all the valuable advice and encouragement texts babe!
It's a blessing to have friends in the industry to share the joys, the pain.
Wenqi
She's super sweet, lent my heavy head a good firm shoulder.
Glad we had the chance to know each other more!
Last but never the least Fooey. =)
How grateful I am to him, for being my most trusted confidant.
The carefree days at Starbucks are long gone.
The carefree days at Starbucks are long gone.
But I'll always remember the days I walked you home HAHAHAHA.
Every time I complain that life's taking a toll on me, he will sigh and reply,
“不可以 compare 啦。你懂那时候我有多穷吗？？”
And thank you for the personalized thought Dee!
Christmas and New Year's Eve could be better. It's a pity there are no longer pictures of her and I. I was never an absolute person, but I am also no longer gullibly hopeful. I'll leave it to fate if we might ever pick up again. Right now, I just want to detach myself in entirety. I would not talk about us. I will not steer my mind toward thoughts of her. This is the first-ever valued friendship I've lost and only time can neutralize this loss. Okay on to the last section.

And possibly my favorite part of all. TBG!!!!!

Deardear
SHE asked me to post this, not that I wanted to!
SHE thinks this is her best shot because the face so slim hahahaha.
Lots of fun love, anywhere with them. We could spend the night chilling, doing nothing at all and feel happy like hell.
We look better NOT smiling for pictures.
Top: Yins spastic smile that concluded we shouldn't smile
Laughing so hard I fell off my chair. Hahahah NO LAH YOU WISH.
Out of the picture only!
We missed our dear Natty and gave her well-deserved space...
To be cropped in later.....
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAPPY??! <;D
Indeed. ♥♥♥♥
Over the years I've written often about TBG. No need for mushy essay. There's not much left to say other than I love you all, which can never be said enough. Happy New Year to Natty especially! Keeping you in our hearts till you come home!
And that sums up my very Merry Christmas.
