A very late DECEMBER update!!!

Hi Everyone!

I'M ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!

I know, i'm the absolute worst blogger EVER! I was used to able to blog every week but somehow something always get in the way. Something called PROCRASTINATION! until i see my pictures are starting to pile up, and i start feeling the stress and then the guilt. But i'm SORRY everyone! To whoever still read this blog.

This is a very late update of December. That being the busiest month for me, being my birthday month and all, thus making it the most exciting month :)

Before i forget. MERRY(belated) CHRISTMAS, HAPPY NEW YEAR, and HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

I wish everyone Good fortune, Success, beauty, wealth and happiness!!!<3 p="">

During the Christmas holidays, i hosted a party in a party room. I love the holidays because it's the only time where i can get a bunch of friends together whom i have't seen for a long time. These times are very precious to me because i tend to feel very lonely most of the time. we did our traditional secret santa (plus steal) game, except no one stole this year because everyone enjoyed their gifts :)

Getting ready to pick a present

Emergency Christmas outfits :D

We also went to the Annual Christmas Market. It was cold as always, but very enjoyable.

On Christmas Day, The family and i all gathered around the Christmas tree to open presents.

My Birthday is forever a few days after Christmas, so my presents are usually always combined haha

Aww so sweet, i always wanted a tiny purse from LV

This has got to be my favourite! I always wanted a polaroid camera, and it's PINK!!! LOVEEEESSSSS!!! I'm still camera obsessed. I keep collecting but never use them enough.

LADY GAGA and KATY PERRY concert tickets!!!! SO EXCITED!

Infinity ring from Tiffany's

And the matching infinity necklace to go with it

Girlfriend got me these super cute studded flowers from Pandora

A very cute charm from a girlfriend. I love notebooks!

I also did a bunch of baking this holidays. I made tons of batches of cookies and succeeded in making egg tart for the first time (though they were a bit too sweet, but still edible)

Banana oatmeal and oatmeal raisin cookies

The preparation was so messy

It smelled good!

I also celebrated my birthday with some friends. I find that as i get older, all i want really is to be close to family and friends. Just dinner and conversing makes my day. I haven't "parties" since i was a teenie.

My friend baked me a cake!! OMG it's gorgeous! i didn't even want to cut into it! She is so talented!

I love how she made it Tiffany blue!

ALL Engineers and Doctors except me! *sobs*

On my actual Birthday, my boyfriend took me to the Windsor Hotel for High Tea. I always wanted to high tea (i've only been a few times in my life), especially this particular one because it has high reviews and you have to book at least half a year in advance just to get a spot for the holiday season.

In the evening, i had a birthday dinner with some friends

With the girls

With the boys

Friends visiting from Hong Kong :)

And finally putting my Polaroid to good use!

Anniversary

Yesterday was me and my boyfriend's two year anniversary, seems like time is just flying by. Wow, has it been two years already? Where did all the time go?

After i got off work yesterday, he drove us downtown to Harbour Front. There is a nice skating rink at the Waterfront with a beautiful view of the lake and good music playing. We went to get rentals and he was determined to teach me how to skate. I know what you guys are thinking..."OMG you can't skate??"
It's trueeeeee, i never learned, and somehow i'm terrified! I was more terrified to try skating more than when i tried snowboarding the first time.

This is me refusing to let go of the pole and go on the ice

Okay, i'm on the ice...now what?

I pretty much got the hang of it after 2.5 hours of skating. I still suck so badly though, i think it's a sense of insecurity, i'm unable to let go of the bf's hand even though i'm pretty much doing it on my own. I think i am at least hahaha. It was good, will try again and not whine about it =P

After such exhausting activity (for me), we returned our rentals and walked around the harbor. it was beautiful, but unfortunately a bit too cold and windy, especially when it was getting later in the day. There were supposed to be some kind of light festival at the harbour yesterday where the ships light up and stuff but we only saw one, and it was getting too cold to stay outside (also we were starving), so we drove back uptown and had all-you-can-eat-sushi at Yang's kitchen. We ate A LOT, but it was so yums^^ Too bad i forgot to take pictures :( Was too hungry to care at that moment, lol.

Excuse the quality, camera died, had to use ipod touch

The boyfriend was very sweet to me this year. He got me a Tiffany & Co. ring for a present. Thank you! I'd show you all what I've got him...but it's still in transit. Boo.....

I just love their packaging!

Jeeez i have the ugliest hands!
