Christmas Present for Myself!

Blink of the eye, it is Christmas again. And its X'mas-presents-show-and-tell-time! Remember the present for myself which I mentioned in the Souvenirs Galore entry? Well, I am gonna reveal what it is!

It is a RF 2009 Calendar from the RF Shop. It contains beautiful images from the 2008 season and Roger's childhood moments. My favourite is August's photograph - Roger's facial features still look almost the same right? :p Hope there'll be more moments like October's next year!



The calendar has all the tournament dates marked out. At the back, there is RF's autograph. And getting this calendar is also for a good cause - part of the Christmas spirit. =)

Initially I wanted to get this for the #1 RF fan, KC-XTT. But I got something even better for her... vrrrrroooomm.... heh, so I get to keep the RF calendar for myself! I have already hang it on my cubicle in office.

There are also plenty of presents from my friends. Just showing three of them here...

The beautiful tall tin can of cookies is from my "Secret Santa" in office gift exchange. I'm curious to find out who you are! Can drop me a comment if you are reading this?

The bottle of Burberry London is from my wife! Thanks dear, you always know what to get me and when I need it.

And finally, TWG Tea's Alfonso cotton teabags from KC-XTT. Great stuff! Thank you my dear friend! I will try to learn more from you about appreciating good tea. Well, being part of the office tea club is a good start right? More Turkish Tea for everyone on Monday! =)

Noticed the colour theme for this year's presents seem to be brown? Ha...

I also got other nice and cute presents from Sunshine-HY, Georgia, Stitchy-Sop and Jax. Thanks alot guys!

While Christmas is a good time to shower friends with presents, I guess the meaning of Christmas is much deeper than our material needs... Have a safe and peaceful holiday. Merry Christmas my dear friends!

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

Saturday Afternoon Routine.

I just got back from the Saturday tuition sessions. It has been almost 5 months since I started.I have two classes of primary school children, P4 and P3, taking Maths and Science, and English, respectively. It has become a Saturday routine. A energy-draining activity. It is somehow different from giving volunteering tuition. When you are paid, the responsibility seems greater. And if you ain't doing a good job, someone else is readily available to take up yours. The fact that I really need that money, I have to put in more effort. Some students have left, and some have joined. I'm not sure whether they left cuz they think I ain't good 'nuff for them. But there are some who seem really happy and appreciative to have me around. On my first lesson, I set the ground rules for my classes. I told them my expectations on their behavior. On boy, how naive I was. They are only nine or ten, they don't understand the significance of those rules. After a couple of lessons with ...

Resolutions 2012.

While my one-year-old is going for his first steps, I am also learning to walk (again). 2011 was full of ups and downs.  I was promoted for the 2nd time in my first job. Not fantastic but not bad either after six years. The challenging issues justifies for the few more dollars increment to the stipend. Murphy is my good friend. With only the final milestone left, I hope to overcome all odds and pull the rabbit outta the hat in 2012! If I am lucky, I may run another project.  For the consecutive year, I expended all my medical leave. After hearing my story, some may say 父爱是伟大的. Some may think I was pure clumsy. As my son likes to watch basketball playing, I decided to show him how to do it myself. At first I felt good, I got it plenty of shots. Unfortunately, I broke my ACL while chasing after the ball. It has been two months and my knee is still weak and hurts occasionally. I plan to go for surgery in 2012, while performing the balancing act of pulling the rabbit and recup...
