Jolly Jolly Christmas!

It was just like yesterday that I was actually celebrating my very first real christmas in London. In fact, a year has passed and this year, we decided to stay in Notts and have a different kind of celebration.

No roast turkey with stuffing, no pig in the blankets, no 5kg of mashed potatoes, no baked parsnips and no caesar salad this year.

But what remains the same is the company and that's what I treasure most =)

24/12/2011 Christmas Eve


All dressed up for the Christmas eve dinner
with the beloveds
*spot my small little petite Xmas hat, cute right cute right? =p*


The Randalamos. Our 4th and probably the last
Christmas together =(


This year we have the Warwick's with us =)


Festive din din at Harvester. Turkey escalope,
rump steak, pan-fried salmon and the festive
combo!


Unlimited salad and desserts. The salad are so good and I
can sit there whole day just for the salad. *for vege-lovers like me*
Trust me, forget about the calories and fat. Cause the blue
cheese dressing is the one to die for!


The sweet sweet couples

Back to the tradition after dinner; Secret Santa <3

This year is a little special cause we had like 2 rounds of present exchange. One for the designated person, and another being random. You can buy anything you want and see who's the lucky one getting it.


She was my secret santa 2 years ago. This year, I'm hers =)
*hope u like the pressie*


Feeling honored to have the only guy in the group as my
secret santa! =)


Christmas presents for the lucky ones! Under a beautifully
lit-up Christmas tree.

25/12/2011 Christmas Day

Everywhere was closed and we decided to just chill at home with some home-cooked food.


Big breakfast with poached eggs on
toast, baked beans, grilled tomatoes
and sauteed mushrooms.


Look at our happy faces! Even with simple breakfast like
this. Christmas is suppose to be happy, isn't it? =D
*Feeling blessed to have them with me*

For the ultimate Christmas dinner, we had a 2-course meal!


Our main course! Loh Pan Mee made from
scratch, topped with minced turkey meat,
mushrooms and fried shallots *nyums*


Desserts; Pistachio gelato and Cherry Glacia frozen yogurt!


Presents I got this year! ^.^

Have been slacking a lot since I came back from the trips and exam is like just around the corner. Really really around the corner liao!!! Hence, a short post. So much to read up and yet, I can still slack *yaiks* And go London for New Year! *yaiks max max max*

Okay, I better stop here and start facing the books again!

Oops oops, before I forget.

Merry Christmas!!!

From Us to You

The Perfect Winter Getaway

Wee!!! Just got back from the most amazing getaway with the Randalamos 'originals'.

You must be wondering where's that amazing place right?

Let the pictures below reveal it =)

#1 Prague


Charles Bridge and the Prague Castle


Some of the traditional food that we had in the Xmas market;
my favourite would be the bottom two on the left. All-time love,
the churros and the new-found love, trdelnik which is like a
must have for me every single day =p
*Definitely one of the best xmas market I've been to*

#2 Budapest


Night view from Gellert Hill overlooking the famous chain
bridge that connects Buda and Pest side of the city


Closer shot of the chain bridge and Budapest Castle on the
Buda Hill


Traditional Hungarian food! Which was too meaty for my
liking. And salty too. My favourite; the poppy seed strudels
and rum flavoured raisins crepe.

Both cities were magnificent especially during the night when the entire city is illuminated!

Super cheap food, cozy accommodation and most importantly, best companies ever =D

The only regret we had was the weather. It was hot compared to Notts and sad to say, it didn't snow at all =( *sigh*

Basically, one word to describe the entire trip.

SPLENDID!


Love the originals to bits ♥

p/s: More pictures will be loaded on fb. So stay tuned =)

Lectures Down, Holidays Up!

Had my last lecture yesterday *can't believe I don't needa drag myself out of bed for morning lectures anymore*

Just submitted my last assignment of the sem few minutes ago.

So, it's time!!!

To pack up.

Ready to flyyyyyyyyyyy!!!! *excited max*



Have a great winter everyone out there!

Lots of hugs from the author,

To keep all of you warm
