My 2007 Christmas

Friday, December 28th, 2007

It’s been a year since i released my xmas singles "our christmas"..  Sang a few times too this year for quite a  few shows.  The feelings of christmas is just sooo strong..  i love christmas..  i love preparing for christmas..  it starts with decorating our christmas tree in the studio, although it’s only a 3feet tall little tree, but when it’s decorated and lit up, it’s perfectly beautiful… 

This year, i spent my christmas with my son, Bob with his two other buddies, Rain and Silky.  So there were only 4 of us (Kenn, Jon, Dotz and Me) with 3 little doggies..  This is my first time celebrating with them and i think it’s so special, and warm.. It’s Bob and Rain’s 1st meeting with Silky.  Silky is Jon’s 10 yr old silky terrier.  We call her "lao zha bo" (old woman) becoz she’s really old edi.. haha.. But Jon keep saying "eh please!  She’s ‘lao chio bu’ (old hot lady)!" hahahaha…. 10 yrs old silky is like a 50 yrs old woman.  So we call her Auntie Silky.. ;) 

Bob likes her a lot.. Keep chasing her wanting to play with her, but Silky was more human oriented, like human more than dogs.. So Bob’s playfulness made Silky irritated, barked at Bob!! hahaha.. But seriously, Silky is really so adorable.  She sat beside me, watching TV as i comb her hair.  She really liked it a lot!  I think Jon did not comb her hair for a long time!! poor silky. Rain as usual, play for awhile, then lie on the floor watching them play.. He is sooo lazy….

I bought presents for the 3 of them.  Bob and Rain has a pendant with their names carved on it and Silky has a brand new set of collar and latch.  so happy to see them playing around the house and sitting comfortably with us on the couch. 

We had very different food on the table this christmas.  Normally we would have turkey?  ham?  But well, this year we had cravings for CHILLI CRAB!!  hahaha.. we bought baguette from delifrance to dip the gravy from the chilli crab and it’s really delicious!  we also had cockles and satay.. geez.. different types of ‘unhealthy food’ but well..  it’s xmas… 

Time passes very quickly.  It was time to rest becoz we gotta travel to KL and Kuantan the next day (which is the actual day of xmas). Haiz…  wat a day..  but well, i’ve got no choice, i gotta work right?  okok.. think of the money.. hahahaha… 

it was Dunhill’s 100 yrs of celebration.  There were celebrations in several states and so i was performing for Kuantan and KL.  The organizers did not communicate properly regarding my songs selection, thus made me changed a lot of songs in the end, right before my performances.  Geezes…  I’m NOT a JUKEBOX!!  I need mmos, i need to memorize lyrics!  I was so panicked.  i was furious..  How could they do tat?  last minute change of songs, AND also my outfits!  luckily i prepared 4 sets of clothes to Kuantan, JUST IN CASE!  everything is so so so last minute. 

This is really my worse experience of performing.  i really hope there is no 2nd time…  Haiz.. It’s not easy, but well, at least it’s over..  In peace now.. at least, that im back in S’pore.  Seeing my son reduces my stress in 1/2.  the power of bobby and rain.. hahaha…

love xmas, love my family, love bob & rain, love everyone around me "christmas isn’t christmas till it happens in your heart" :)

Merry Christmas..
