ok it's definitely time for an update..firstly i must recount my parents' 25th wedding anniversary on the 21st of december..it was excellent..had such a fun time with my entire family..started off with pre-dinner drinks at brewerkz which has amazing snacks..yes i must say this again and again and again! then headed across the river to the coriander leaf..had the tandoori chicken this time..excellent! that restaurant rocks..the decor is so nice and so is the atmosphere..everyone really enjoyed the food and the conversation and everything..it was a success!!! after dinner we headed over t0 the club for some karaoke..something we've never done altogether..so thirteen of us packed into this tiny room and made alot of noise and had alot of fun!

next highlight was christmas..spent the morning in temple attending a wedding..had my first round of lunch in temple..was delicious..then headed home and got ready to go over to max's..got there about 2 and sat around with narin and max talking and waiting for the rest to come..once keerthi, amarpreet and ashwin got there it was time for my second round of lunch..shepherd's pie, roast chicken and ham..yum yum!! after that we started playing our pass the paper game then some card games..all fun! and the presents were great..thanks friends! sorry about my lame present hehehe :) better ones for ur birthdays don't worry! spent the evening at max's dad's place..great dinner and interesting events or actually just one interesting event :p

on boxing day i had to do a performance..alone..again..very stressful and highly embarrassing as well as super tiring to be dancing a 4 to 5 minute long song all by myself!!!! but it turned out alright..

on wednesday i went to khalsa for the first giddha(pre-wedding ceremonies and partying) of the wedding i'll be attending on sunday..met up with alot of relatives..met aman again! had fun dancing and all hehehe.. tonight's the second one at the singapore chinese swimming club i think..nice place..more dancing!!!!! fun fun fun :)

last night went over to shaleen's place for her farewell party..was really enjoyable due to the usual majority IJ girl atmosphere! max was going abit crazy towards the end of the night but never mind...treepti, geri, max and i were the last to leave..just before 1 i think..the taxi driver was quite a funny guy..coz max and i were the last 2 to be sent home so when we dropped max off across the road from her condo she ran for the traffic light but didn't make it in time to cross..so the taxi driver told me to wind down the window and laugh at her! oh and max he said u are very cute :)

right i'm sure this is a long enough entry to keep charmaine satisfied for quite some time so i'm gonna go now!
