Too many parties make me a weary girl

22nd Dec
5pm- Deep's Housewarming
I was happened to be the first guest. Haha. I was thus honoured to view the house & its owners in the preparation stage. Deep's new apartment is rather spacious & extremely windy, to the extent that it managed to whip my hair into tangles. However, it was all made up for by Deep's mother. Because she is such a darling towards me, treating me with such warmth, I cant help but like her alot.

6pm- Sam's 21st Birthday Party
Since i spent most of my time there waiting for Sam to reach home, SMSing & making small talk with Marie, I dont think it was really fruitful. Sam's NS friends were early as well, but they talked among themselves exclusively and I didnt bother to interrupt their conversation. I hope his party was a success & that he liked the present. I was honestly relieved to get into Noel's car. I had stayed too long already.

7pm- TRAFFIC JAM!
I hate the year end jams. The traffic is as clogged up as the drains these days. ANNOYING.

8pm- Xmas gathering at Mervyn's place
We finally arrived at his place, warmly welcomed by Aloysious, Meryvn's nephew. Haha. He's so hyperactive, i believe hes probably suffering from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). He called Regina "sotong ball"! He also made me play 'chopsticks' with him, to his own rules! We played 'scissors, paper, stone' & he wanted to give me a "Char Siew Pao" to box me. Alamaks. Haha. He's still super adorable because he speaks with a TV-acquired American accent. He punctuate his speech with "pal" & "dude"! I cant think of any other 7-year old boy who speaks like that! Soon, his maid came to collect him & send him to bed. PHEW... Suddenly, it became too quiet.

After cleaning up the area, we packed up all our leftover food. Which was A LOT. I hope Meryvn & his mom enjoyed the beehoon, chicken wings, duck meat & curry today. Haha. So anyway, some of them went to pick Daphne up to join us post dinner. (Supposedly for Supper, but we were wayyyy too full.) Too bad WuHui & Sushi had to leave earlier. SengKang Boy was probably so disappointed. Anyway, im really paiseh cos the Champagne which i brought seemed to have LAO FONG already. The colour's really dark & it was NOT bubbly at all. Haha.

So when the entire entourage came home, the guys were too gutless to watch the horror shows on cable tv, we played some drinking games with the champagne. Shawn said it was "nasty"- OOPs. Haha, so we played '3 kings' first. Continued with CokeCola when the champagne ran out. Urgh. Afterwhich, we had an enlightening Truth or Truth session. Haha. I shall keep the details private. :) Next, we moved on to 'Indian Poker'. You know, having to down the entire mug of water is unbearable. Justin did that a few times too. Heheh. Lastly, it was the 'Polar Bear' game which was really funny.

We hung around at his place until 6am this morning. We had Macs breakfast at Kallang & then reached home at 8am. Entered Lala-land at 8.30am. I woke up at 4pm because i have my tennis lesson at 5+pm.

The tennis lesson was different because Coach Simon wasnt around today. Instead, the overall head taught us & he focused on all the technique basics. The grip, the footwork, the posture. Although the pace was really slow, it cleared up my doubts. While its really useful, I really hope Coach Simon comes back SOON. Otherwise, I will buay tahan with his teaching style. Zzzzzzzzz
