It Definitely Feels Like Christmas!

Monday, December 10th, 2007

Yep, the fever has arrived.

It actually didn’t hit me until last week, until I was out with my best friend and attended too many dinners and night outs, that Christmas is here!

Christmas has always been very dear to me. Growing up, the month of December meant ‘cuti panjang’, trips, meeting cousins, visiting friends, playing all day and of course Christmas! I have always loved December. In fact, it’s my favorite month cause most people, friends or families are back balik kampung, have parties or gets married. Nowadays, it also translates too ; Makan ( which of course is the mother of weight gain!) and burning a hole in your pocket!

Anyways, my beautiful best friend Elmy who just got back from Australia last week, rang me up a few days after she arrived for a must have tete-a-tete sessions. I was really excited as we always have interesting topics to dig from each other and we never get tired.Ever.

Though exhausted and broke from a recent night out with friends, 2 chinese wedding receptions and a staff dinner, I just had to go out with her at all cost.

Before we left together in her car, we called up J.anne, another dear friend of ours to check if she wanted to come.The poor thing was sick but we promised to go out again with her.

Anyways, look at this superstar, even while on the phone she is always camera-ready.

Us together. I haven’t perfected cam-whoring technique yet. My face always ends up stangah saja.

It was about 4pm and I haven’t had any lunch so we went straight to Warisan Square for food. I was also in a jolly mood because after hugs and cheek kisses she said, "Macam ko ada slim down sikit sudah darling" . God, you just don’t know how good that feels. =P

It really makes you feel somewhere foreign in Warisan Square. And the Christmas decor was done very tastefully too, I must say. Elmy wasn’t really sure where to eat and I suggested my recent favorite restaurant ; Fish & Co.

Food

oOohh..I’m drooling now! This is what we had ; Wrasse Picatta and New York’s Fish and Chips. The best fish and chips ever! It’s worth every cent of your RM 16.70.

We cleared our plates, and walked off the guilt afterwards.

Almost every store was on SALES. But having been already broke, I tried not to be lured by any of Esprit and Padini that was on 50% sales!!. Elmy could have bought some stuffs if she stopped her hallucination of being ‘fat’ .Sheesh.

We admired this cute lil notebook bag.

I took this in Tong Hing. Isn’t it purdy?

We meant to catch the Carols by CandleLight at Sutera that evening but it was showering and thought that we’d probably get wet and have difficulty parking anyway. We ditched that idea and carried on window shopping much to my feets’ expense.

We stretched the day longer and decided to go to City Mall for more window shopping but as we set foot there, we were just to exhausted and  walked straight to Starbucks.Our list of topics to talk about just went on and on and on over delicious ( and sinful!) Frappucinno. I realise that this kind of lifestyle will be seriously damaging in the long run!! But the conversations were really good. We felt so grown and womanly when we touched issues like Money, Love, Relationship and the future. 14 years ago, we were two innocent girls who talked mainly about crushes, hairclips and scrunchies =P
