Christmas Dinner

Well, its christmas le. Like what my close friend, Roy , always said " Christmas has been over commercialised."

Yes, that's true. Like I did spread the message to friends a few years ago " Christmas is the day Jesus Christ was born." and it's not about gift exchange, eating turkey etc.

But it just happened that Christmas is at the end of the year, where working adults get their bonuses, children enjoying their school holidays. So family can get to go out, enjoy and buy gifts for one another.

This year, Christmas is special, something that I hoped for - Dinner at home with the whole family. All along I just want to have a home-cooked dinner by my mum and sitting down eating together as a family. Ever since I enlisted into NS, my family rarely had "family time" when all of us are able to go out for dinner. I believe my dad also feel that way, just that he keep it inside.

My mum suggested ordering food from Cold Storage, then she just prepared abit. and vola, a wonderful dinner is ready!! Really enjoy the dinner, had pork ribs, turkey ham, shepard's pie, beef lagsana [dun know how to spell ] + white wine, even log cake!!!haha

Although the whole day i was at home.. i was happy.. really... maybe different people have different expectations...

i talked to my friend, Bo Rong, he was sad that he didn't get to countdown to christmas last night at orchard as he was in camp...he said it was his first time tat he didn't countdown in orchard..

how did you spend your xmas and xmas eve?
