Updates
Spent the eve of Christmas hoping time would just fly by when the majority worked half day only. HX and I lunched at Tea P@rty Cafe, having scones, fries and tea.
The scones there were perfect, but what was missing that day was their in-house sauce. Jam does the trick though. We just sat back and read magazines, slacking for an hour - the longest I had for months!
An hour wasn't enough for us to digest the pastries and I couldn't have much during our br@nch Christmas gathering.
It wasn't a gathering per se, but it was fun to wine and dine without talking shop. The girlies left early, leaving we 4 sales staff slacking. We wrapped things up by me and W1ck1 finishing a bottle of wine each.
Spent Christmas with the boys at WK's place. Telly progs were watched, cards were played and gifts were exchanged. Had a headache the next day after all those wine and beer.
Christmas was spent at home sleeping. Woke up close to 5pm, watched Love Actually, suppered with HQ and ended up losing sleep that night.
Woke up on Boxing day grouching and sleepy but got my act together and went to work. It was a long day, with me rushing off to Center for a meeting by one of the fund man@gers. They would be launching a new fund. Interesting but I doubt most peps would get the technicality aspect of it.
Blackathy's lips were kissed by some stupid hump. Took a day off to go M@lays1a with KB. Met Anthony half-way and watched Alien vs Predator 2 with him while getting a spray job for Blackathy.
Nightfall. I picked Gwen up to meet Samantha, who invited us to H5BC's 0ps private party at M0S. Met lots of familiar faces. Hugs and kisses were exchanged and soon we filled ourselves up with beer and vodkas. Photos were taken and LM was complaining I didn't take any with her. We took one, only after she handled her camera to Liz saying 'It costs over $2000'.
The party was huge fun, def. better than what they had at Viv0 last year. The theme's retro but we just stood by the bar drinking. Sam had to leave for another party and so the rest of us went to the smoking area. Jasmine was really nice to buy us more drinks and we had shots. Out of nowhere, a girl bought me a beer and asked me to down it in one go.
I had difficulty waking up the next day but work comes first. Sped to work and had breakfast with the girlies. Dazed through the morning and went grocery shopping after that.
Bought probably the most expensive bread I ever bought. Raisin plait and baguette for ten bucks at Simply Bread. Had that for lunch and dinner while watching Heartbreak Kid, 881 and I now pronunce you Chuck and Larry.
Going in M@laysia tml morning again with WK, Mich and TX.
Nights.
