happy boxing day.

merry x'mas yall :) 

I hoped everyone had as much fun as I did . It was undoubtedly the best for me thus far . 

i had a blast at christmas countdown with my uni friends and a quiet affair with kun on the 25th . 

then it was belated christmas brunch with double S (sarah & sonia) on boxing day. 

sarah actually took the trouble to set up a lovely corner for us in her car porch extension !! 

she's really really good at all these... i have a bunch of friends who are so creative..

while i'm extremely blessed, it makes me stressed to know that i'm lacking in so many areas. 

back to the cozy affair- good food , companion and a lovely place for us to camwhore & instagram. 

speaking of which, i love my iphone 5 and all the photography apps . 

two years of bb( which has failed me terribly btw) deprived me of photo taking :( 

starters -  vol au vent cases stuffed with choice of egg mayo and crab meat fillings. 

mains for the day - pork ribs !! (hey i'm rebs too :x )  

bacon x mushroom skewered sticks. very sinful but very yummy. 

i've decided to make this for the next potluck gathering because it's so easy and fuss free. 

plus point is that it doesn't require me to turn on the stove (hip hip hurray) 

my friends can finally take a break from my boiled sausages and potato salad for a while.

our pretty chef of the day : > 

thank you for being such a great host as always.  

i shall forgive you for all the times you've went M.I.A for the past year. 

& English tea was served. it was a tai tai sit- down- and- chill moment. 

talking about results , plans and future job prospects . the much dreaded reality and topic. 

some of us (including yours truly) will graduate next year and we're worried about having to climb the arduous and long corporate ladder + deal with office politics 

i'm crossing my fingers that all will go well ( at least through sheer grit ) 

sarah's crib is ALWAYS super nicely decorated with ornaments when it comes to christmas. 

her place was even featured on The Straits Times once how cool is that !! 

experimenting with red lips ( my current craze and coincidentally teh's )

there are just way too many brands and products out there it's mind blowing

even the off-  shelf brands like maybelline and revlon offer such nice lustre 

after brunch , we had a few rounds of camwhoring and bridge in her room. 

nia introduced me some really cool apps so we put them to good use .

till the next toodles ^^ 

 this is undoubtedly the best christmas countdown thus far :) 

i've had so much fun with my girls and felt all the warmth and love that night . 

i wished i could spend it with kun as well but he had his annual family gathering

& speaking of which , i felt so bad that i skipped this year . 

then again, i think it's the best choice for both of us because he wont have to entertain me 

& i wont be bored to death or stone at one corner which defeats the purpose of a gathering :/

thank you to all the girls who make time down for the gathering. 

& special thanks to YANNINGBOBO <3<3 who offered her place and planned the countdown. 

yummy yet sinful chocolate indulgence :) 

what's a better way to start a post than posting pictures of the camwhore pro ?! 

& for the nth time, these are the lucky surviving pictures which weren't deleted

picture number one : taking picture of herself. 

picture number two : posing with a reese peanut chocolate cup?!

act yi ge rudolf the red nose ranger. 

picture number three : posing with fruit tree fresh apple juice BEST.

i think in our future gatherings she will pose with paper cups and spoons. 

picture number four ; posing with the ice cream pint ?! 

our unbeatable number one camwhore queen. 

we were playing games and she sat at a corner to camwhore by herself. 

i had to stand on a stool in order to join the tall gang :( 

we had pasta , seaweed chicken , nuggets , french fries  & garlic bread !

love fingerfood <3 though they do shit to my body. 

yanning begging to be my friend hahahaha :x 

& yup so i kindly accepted her friend request and took a picture with her

i think she's gonna charge at me on our next meeting 

" so rebe you think you damn big ah ? " somewhere along the lines. 

then it was the much awaited christmas exchange :) 

to be honest, this year's christmas exchange is so much better because.. 

each and everyone of us took the effort to look for a gift 

& each and everyone of us , were willing to pay for a good gift :) 

i wanted to give something better but had no time to do christmas shopping :(

i shall start my christmas shopping earlier in future. 

everyone posing with their christmas gifts :) 

 one of the bestest bestest bestest bestest girlfriend one could ever have  <3

love you very much lyla yang 

cheers to many more years of sisterhood .

while we took the picture , yenqin went like " can you feel my bulging tummy?"

super cute and random . 

rounds of monopoly deal and bridge 

it's a pity that only yann trace and i knew how to play bridge 

i've been dying to play bridge so we forced the rest to learn 

i have to admit that felimbo's a really hardworking student and showed keen interest in learning

however.. halfway through bridge , she asked me " this is flush right "

yann and i went nuts . i didnt know if i should laugh or cry . 

 mixed flavours from baskin robbins <3 

that made me missed korea a lot. 

 a warm group hug to end off the night . 

for happy moments should be shared and sad moments would be kept . 

those who mind dont matter but those who don't mind matter :)
