Christmas Eve 2015

While most people look forward to a big Christmas feast with turkey, mash, gravy & the likes.... Or something really luxurious as a treat for themselves. I didn't eat none of that - pizza & Somersby was what I had.

Most people also choose to spend their time with family members, which is normal and understandable. But I went to meet my best friend instead then proceeded to spend the entire day with her, when I wasn't taking a nap that is. HAHAH.

Then, since it is a public holiday today, it isn't a surprise that many would choose to spend the day out & about. Yet the both of us decided to spend our time by the pool indulging in food & beer.

Only for two.

This was what we got from Papa John's even though the only ones eating everything is two of us. We got two sets of four mini pizzas - which translates to EIGHT small size pizzas. Then because greediness exists within our minds, we also got chicken poppers and pineapple & kaya rolls for dessert.

Something quite funny and rather amazing happened too. So Bo asked for three packets of garlic sauce because according to her it's super good, it costs Rm 1 each. When we left after collecting our take-out order, she told me to check if they gave us everything we ordered.

They definitely did & added something extra too. There was an entire pack of garlic sauces, about nine of them for us to douse our pizzas in. IT WAS FOR FREE WHAT EVEN. But it is true, the sauce was hella good and the earlier three that we purchased was most definitely not enough for us two. Not with the way we were just pouring it over our pizza slices.

This is our first box of pizzas.

Then the second.

Now looking at the picture and remembering how full I was yesterday, I firmly believe that we ordered way too much for the both of us. In hindsight, one box would have most definitely been enough.

But we wouldn't be who we are if we have so much self-restraint.

After stuffing our faces full comes the fun time... Getting in the pool.

I was actually really glad that there wasn't any sun that afternoon. Although it wasn't hot and sunny, the water was super cold which you could imagine to be super nice. Ideally yes.

In actual fact, the both of us sat in the water just shivering from how cold it was while we tried to ignore the noisy kids. Relaxing but also not quite.

Honestly if I really wouldn't mind spending most of my time by the pool - sans the beer and add in a good book. Or two.

In my mind that is such a perfect way to de-stress and just forget about everything in the world. Then properly immersing myself into a whole new fantasy which is such an introvert thing to say. Heh.

Though I am glad that my best friend spent the entire Christmas eve with me. Even if I did spend a good chunk of the time sleeping because I'm a terrible drunk. Gotta thank my lucky stars to have Bo as a friend who understands me better than anyone else does. ((=

Aaaaanyway, I intended this to be a mini update on what's been going on. Or more of what I got up to that's eventful enough to write a blogpost about. Spent a good chunk of my day editing pictures and writing this, though I did end up stopping every now & then to watch Harry Potter. I'm on a marathon again because I can and I want to. :3

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY! I wish you all the best and also an early happy new year!

Santa baby, I want a yacht and really, that's not a lot.

I've been an angel all year.

So hurry down the chimney tonight.

Been listening to this cover by Daniela Andreda - am rather in love with her Christmas album. It really put me in the mood this year and this is my favourite lyric out of all the songs. If you know me well enough then you'd understand why, but if you do not get it then maybe someday I'll tell you about it.

But until then, bye for now. <3 p="">
