Merry Christmas to You

This is the final weekend before Christmas, last minute shoppers and real shopaholics are spotted everywhere in Orchard. I am dazzled by the paper bags that shoppers are carrying because they are all from top brand name like LV, Loewe....if economists see what I've seen, there is no economy downturn and no financial tsunami!

Christmas is celebrated by majority as a merry holiday oblivion of its'real meaning. "Last Christmas" by Wham re-appears as the number 1 song that played by local radio stations and shopping centres year after year has become a culture.

I have prepared presents for work place Christmas gift exchange and contributed my not so proud wrapping skill for the presents of my little nieces and nephews. I think they won't mind the unsightly wrapping at all.

Looking back into my limited blog entries, I have spent my past two years year end holiday in Japan. This year, going overseas for holiday has not crossed my mind. Is it due to stronger yen or economy crisis? I don't know. Just like those shoppers that I have brief encountered this weekend, I do not mind to spend a little to buy Christmas presents for our cherised one.

Merry Christmas to you.

A Pot of Tea

A pot of English Breakfast tea and few fashion magazines made the waiting time at the departure hall unnoticeable.

Sipping hot tea, flipping pages of glamarous articles has somewhat calmed my nerve a little.
