ME
We opened our presents when the clock struck 12 midnight, and I got the most presents hahaha:) My sister said it was because I was away so everyone thought of me the most and hence I got the most presents. We left for Melaka in the morning, where we decided to bunk over at Di Gu's house. After dropping our stuffs off at his place, we drove to Durian Tunggal to attend my cousin-in-law's family's Christmas BBQ. There was alot of food, and these incredibly yummy matcha red bean log cake and blueberry cheesecake from the famous Yeast Bakery! It's lucky I wore jeans, or else I would have able to stuff more food into my system lol. And when we got back home, Ah Jin gorgor brought us to the Portugese settlement to see the Christmas decorations that the Portugese people put up in their village. They really put in alot of effort decorating their house for Christmas! The whole street was twinkly-bright from the Christmas lights that the Portugese used to decorate their houses with.
So that was how I spent my Christmas Day. I spent Boxing Day with Di Gu and his family, travelling to Port Dickson to check out some Eagle Ranch resort that my mother is interested in collaboration with, and to play at the beach. End up we didn't go to the beach cause it was so friggin' hot, so we loitered around the shops and sat under coconut trees. After that, we changed 'hotels', going over to my Tua Kor's house to stay. Tua Kor made us dinner, and I think I ate like 6 XXXL sambal prawns o.O
The next day, we had chicken rice balls for breakfast. Thanks to Aunty Lily who queued up before 9am to get it for us. The shop is apparently so famous that people queue up for the chicken rice balls way before it opens at 9am! I have no idea what the shop's name is, or where it is located too haha. Then Tua Kor brought us out for lunch at Pizza Hut where we ate some 7-cheese pizza that was soooo good! The KL SPs came over in the afternoon so we took a car ride down to the beach (making a stopover for fruits #healthylifestyle). We went back in time for dinner (which Tua Kor and Aunty Lily cooked).
Jubie jiejie had a day off on Wednesday, so she brought my sister and me out for shopping at Pahlawan. She treated us to bubble tea at Chatime (I ended up drinking 2 cups that day!!!) and lunch at Secret Recipe. AND she bought us accessories plus a football jersey for my brother! She's such a giving and loving person, so glad I have her as my cousin-in-law<3 haha. Because we had a late lunch, we ate satay for 'dinner', and then we went for SUPPER at 11pm at Capitol Satay Celup. It's really awesome, and there was a long queue outside even though it was 11pm on a weekday night. Luckily Tua Kor knew the owner, Uncle Raymond, so he gave us a table almost instantly. And he gave us this huge tray filled with mega-assed sotong, prawns, scallops, clams, abalone, and other types of seafood, all of which he charged us only 80 cents per stick. Zomggg how to earn $$ like that!!! We had a wonderful time eating and eating until about 2am.
So if you noticed, I've been spending alot of my holiday EATING and EATING. My stomach is seriously embarrassing me now. And I'm worrying about the dangers of carrying a spare tyre now- heart attack, Type II diabetes etc. But I tell myself it's only for 3 weeks, after that I'm going back to Potatoland. So this semester, Kingfisher is going to see more of my face!!!

I spent a week in Melaka with my family, over the Christmas season. It was so that I could visit my relatives there, and also for the family to have a change of environment, especially for my father who had been stuck at home most of the time.We opened our presents when the clock struck 12 midnight, and I got the most presents hahaha:) My sister said it was because I was away so everyone thought of me the most and hence I got the most presents.
