My God. My niece got a bf. I think it is quite ok for an 18 year old to have a bf but still I am feeling strange. It seemed like just yesterday that she was this young little gal pestering me to buy her toys. Man. Had I aged so much? I wanted to know more about that guy. He don't look like a bad guy to me but still it's my beloved niece he is dating now.

Damn. I am feeling very irritated now. I was just chatting with my mother recently on how frustrated I was with her over her attitude in life and wanted to just wash my hands off her. She was complaining about being poor and yet being a spendthrift and not working during the vacation. Now she had made me even more worried by getting a bf. Guys at her age are a beast full of raging hormones. I don't want to be a grand uncle at this age. Pui. Touch wood. Schools do teach sex education in school nowadays right? Anyway, if I were to know that he tried something funny with her, I would make sure that he would regret having something hanging around his groin.

The worst part is my television had also broken down. I not sure if I can handle any more bad news for today.

ARGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So how was your Christmas? Brilliant I hope. The days leading up to Christmas was not that good for me. Worked till 8 on Sat, seeing how Spurs threw the game away to ARSE-nal, AC Milan losing to Inter Milan, Barcelona to Real Madrid and working till 5+ on Christmas eve though it was supposed to be half day according to Prince Edward.

It was all compensated by having a great meal(really love the Chinese style bbq) on Christmas eve after all the back-breaking work. Though Joan got to go off after dinner, the rest of us adjourned to McDonald for our 牛奶摇 (Milk Shake :P). Had fun chatting with the Prince and Princess. Never knew that our Princess could be so talkative and energetic. Haha.

If my memory didn't fail me, it was the first time in 3 years since I was out for Christmas eve. Just hope that my New Year Eve can also be as fun as this. ;)

Was planning to sleep through the day at home for Christmas day. Like what Princess had said, hibernate like a bear during winter. Things never go according to plan. Turn out that my aunt, cousin and her husband is coming down for a visit. Haizz. I spent the whole afternoon playing mahjong (which I won but all my winning were given to my mum as she had lost) and karaoke at night. Wow. This must be the first time ever since I was in my teens that I went to a ktv with my mum. How hip is that. Ha.

I sang songs that I used to sing in my teens (my mum don't know who Jay Chow is) and also listened to songs that I never knew that they exist. It was a fun experience. The joy my mum shown is worth all the effort trying to stay awake inside the ktv room.

Mum showing off her "prowess" :)

A classic Cantonese song that was sang by my cousin-in law

I think the lyrics are super suited to working adults like me. Working and working. Is it just for the money or the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? Throw in the ever increasing inflation and I think I had endured a pay cut rather than a pay increment. Haizzz..

My favourite Sam Hui songs of all time.

Not sure if any of you guys out there have the craving. But I am absolutely sad that my favourite can food is still being banned. If Santa is around, the one Christmas gift that I want is have it deep fried in small pieces. Chunky and juicy. I am really missing you. :(

The below should bring smiles to Joan and Lu Jing ba. Though I got absolutely no idea why people will eat it.

For the unknown, the below is how it looks like before it was chilled to the above state.

A song that is playing on Class 95 Love Songs now. This was the version I liked before she went nuts and had a make over to a sexy look.

It's that time of the year. Where the weather is so cooling that sleeping seems the only logical thing to do. Waking up had been a struggle. Make that a big struggle. Now if I am my own boss, I would choose to fall into a slumber like what bears do during winter. Sad to say, I am neither my own boss nor a bear. So life goes on. Work, eat, sleep and struggling to wake up from my sleep.

Maybe as it is the year end period, my work load seems to be quite normal. Nothing like those hectic few months from July till October. There had been quite a few cases where I could still see the sunlight when I knock off work. :)

It is also the time of the year where people get into the festive mood. I am not a Christian but I am glad that there is a festival called Christmas. It is a good excuse for people to unwind and party after a long year. :) Not that I am good at partying. No programs thus far for me during Christmas Eve. Think I will spend it with my colleagues. They are like a second family to me. If only my house were big enough to house a Christmas Tree and a dining table for a nice big turkey. It had always been a dream of mine to have my friends over for a nice Christmas dinner and exchanging of gifts with the Christmas tree in the backdrop.

I had been quite into the music of Timberland lately. This would be great to get the party started for me.

I am depressed. Just saw the doctor this morning. Seems like my health is really getting worse. Got another stupid viral infection. Another dose of antibiotics to finish. Maybe my body is telling me that it is time to eat more greens and less meat?

I am depressed. How could a team with Champions League ambitions lose to a team who at this time last year was playing at The Championship? How could a team who had qualified 5th in the Premier League twice for the past two season be at 16th at this time of the season? How could a team with such an impeccable home record for the past two season lost to a team whose players I never even heard of? To be honest, with Man City, Everton, Blackburn, Aston Villa and Portsmouth having such a great start to their season, it would be a miracle if Spurs could finish in the top 6.

I am even more depressed when I see a team that I had always despise leading the table. Topping the League after selling that French Bastard who I got to admit was one of the best the League had seen over the last decade. What make it more depressing is the fact that they are playing sizzling attacking football on the way to the top. The fact that they had been compared to the Great Dutch team of 1974 really rub it in. The best Dutch team ever. The team that started the term, Total Football. The team that had the great Johan Cruyff. My favourite international team of all time. The type of football that my beloved Spurs were playing in 1991 that made me fell in love with them. Don't make me hate you even more, Arse Wanker.

Plus the fact that Holland is drawn together with France, Italy and Romania for their group matches in Euro 2008 really round it off. Part of me think that it is a good chance for us to seek revenge over the hyper defensive Italians for the defeat in Euro 2000 semi finals. Another part of me said that it might be the French and Italians who will have the last laugh. I am just hoping that the fact that Italy always start badly at a major championship to work against them. But to be honest, this group look really depressing for the Dutch.

The only thing that brighten up my day today was that Singapore amazingly beat Vietnam in the SEA Games. With two of the three goals being own goals, it seems like God was Singaporean for a day over in Thailand.

The match that made me love Spurs ever since.

I was sick over the weekend. The first weekend which I am free ever since I was back from Australia and I fell sick. How unlucky could I be? Anyway, slept through the whole weekend. Ironic part was that I was just thinking to myself, it had been a few months since my sinus had given me problems. The next thing I knew, I was having a very bad sore throat due to my sinus and a fever soon after that. Haizzz.. Feeling slightly better now. Hope that I will be fine by tomorrow morning ba.

Quite a lot of things had happened since I was back. I had been to Malacca, attended a friend's wedding and spending a fair amount of time catching up on my work. To be honest, time seems to have flew past me in an instant. I will try to use pictures to describe how was my trip to Australia.
