- Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2009 -

YAY!!!!! Merry Christmas to all first of all and hope you all do enjoy this Christmas till the fullest. I do enjoy actually, very much.

The weekend before Christmas was jolly good and busy weekend. It was the first time I was drag into the treasure hunt, as stated in my previous post. It's kinda hard the riddle given by the owner. Best of all, we can see everyone is looking for the blue box... pretending they are walking around. Right, as if we don't know you are looking for the blue box too.

Oh well, there goes my weekend. My sis, cousin and I went for another round of MV Doulos. Seems kinda nice the ship at night. Lightnings and all. Basically, they have all kind of facilities they need to survive around the world. People are friendly and the way the do things are pretty facilitate orientated - as in work together as one.

Christmas is a time to celebrate Jesus Christ's Birth but for some who are not Christian, Santa Clause will always come to town, giving out Christmas Present and hoping for white Christmas and someone always saw mommy kissing santa clause. Passing by someone's house where Jingle bells really rocks in some of the pubs and clubbing area. I mean, since when they started count down for every occassion? Even Christmas, "3, 2, 1... Merry Christmas" and people started to kiss under the mistletoe.

It's always been a tradition for my family to gather together during Christmas, singing carols before and after eve's dinner. After that, wishing santa will crash into the chimney with lots of present. Haha... I'm evil... Besides, Christmas is not about carols only, it's about food, YES!!! I made wonderful Shepherd's pie this year and my mom baked cheese cakes for desert, don't forget my cousin also prepare this wonderful yet delighting Christmas Cup Cakes.

Last day working on 26th Dec, which is Boxing day.... Hey, haven told you guys yet, I have receive the best early Christmas Gift ever this year... Guess what is it? Mayb you''ll get the chance to see it in my next post if I got used it. Actually, I have used it so often that I really need a WIFI place in Kuching. The Wifi signal in Kuching really sucks. I have to go to Bing! online everytime. Opss.. Some clues out.

Anyway, before i go, another great things happened. Remember the EggYolks couple that i've mention previously treasure hunting??? YES!!!! You did remember. If not, go back and go to their website because I have been "Cartonise". Haha...

Alright, I think this is it. After blogging on and off in 2008, it has been pleasure for all who drop by and give comments, good or bad, funny sort or criticism, it doesn't matter. The thing matter the most is that we learn from our mistake in 2008 and we will climb even higher in 2009. Do start to make a list of Resolution you gonna achieve in 2009 while those in 2008 that does not achieve, let it go or just make it better in the years to come. Till then, this will probably be my last post for 2008.

Signing off from me, Ian-ization.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2009.

8 Days to Christmas~~ YAY!!!! Can't wait though. It has been 3 busiest week ever... Don't know where to start.. Oh well, I was so so so so so so.... busy that I needed a rest. Exhausted from the way manufacturing was pushing it very very tight every single day. Well, what to do. Things are slowing down too, drastically. Guess Christmas is coming soon. Hey, I'm in the Christmas mood also, y know?

Haha... Well, I'm so relieve today after work. Saw a letter on my pc keyboard. It's a Christmas Card... YAY!!! again.. It from my favorite crazy sister... Crazy as in unique la... Don't be mad ok? haha.. Thanks for the wonderful Christmas Card, Melissa and Adeline...

Somehow in the past, it's my tradition to send out Christmas Cards to all those friends and family... 8 days... hey, it's not too late to receive from me right... hehe..

Last Friday, the Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (MPYO) was in town as well for their tour. Two words to fill it the blanks. Brilliant and spectacular. Forgot to bring my digi cam... yiks.. no worries.. I enjoyed it very much. For more information, do visit www.mpyo.com.my. Kevin Field is the conductor of the night... Great performance. Love the quartet.

Oh ya, Doulos was in town as well. For those who don't know about it, visit www.mvdoulos.org. It's the ship that sells all kind of books, Christian books at most. Bought a mug and a crystal like thingy which has the Doulos ship carvings inside it. It's been 7 years since the last time it dock in Kuching. Btw, they sells their book by units. So this is what I did - took down a picture of the unit price quoted in RM and walk around.

- Wake me up, when December ends -

I ain't gonna cook the sotong goreng for anyone to eat.

Where am I at the moment?

Where should I be?

What should one do if they encounter such difficult situation of being ruthless and careless.

For me, I'm gonna be patience going through this hard time. I know how much it will affect most of us, probably end of the year. It's not a good time to spend on the things we like anymore. Likewise, Save it for the rainy days.

Still don't know what am I talking about? These days, I am pretty much having the same deja vu whether I'm at home or outside somewhere wondering around. Seemingly that I can't sleep well since... ages ago.

Wondering what will I be doing during this Christmas. The best day of my life. Enjoying season greetings from every corner. Hey, don't get me wrong, I still like my job but all I could think of is Christmas. I would even stand still in front of the Christmas tree in the Green Gallery to ponder about the significant of Christmas every year. Christmas is near and I can feel it.

Last three things I would do for myself before the end of 2008 - Sending warm Christmas greetings to everyone, especially it is my tradition to send out Christmas cards load with three wise man, Mary's Boy Child and the jingle bell rock that would take your breath away. The second would be Christmas itself - 25 December. 20 days from now... Jolly good. The third thing... well, you'll know it in the future of my blog entry.

Christmas isn't Christmas is running on my head over and over again.

This is the closet I find to portray the whole Christmas is coming soon...

Till then, Happy Thanksgiving to all.

=)
