Boxing Day

leave a comment »

Today was the day when everyone was looking forward to the so-called Boxing Day sales. David Jones at 11am opened its doors to zillion of shoppers as part of WA’s trialling. Future Boxing Day sales depends on the reaction of shoppers and retailers.

As for me, I remain housebound away from the hustle and bustle of shops. Sipping soft drink as usual after having read the first chapter of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Quite an interesting read and I already want to read some more! I will continue reading later tonight when I am not occupied with other Xmas functions such as meeting family and friends.

Christmas Day

I got up quite late on Christmas Day, and expectedly, because of going to bed at 2am the night before. 10.13am the clock read. Everyone said to me that everyone was up already and ready for presents. I got myself ready for the lounge room sit-in. Opened the presents that we gave to each.

In terms of my expectation of presents, which are meant to be a surprise, are fairly good and expected. I got 2 PC games: Call of Duty World at War (which still doesn’t work on my PC due to my PC unable to meet minimum systems requirements, but I’ll figure out a way..) and Crysis (again, not meeting systems requirement). This calls for a PC upgrade (or tweaking of system settings, which I’ll devote my time for another day).

The Curse of the Snowman

leave a comment »

SnowmanOnce upon a time, a man named Snowman came to Piccadilly, a quaint old town circa 1980s. He wanted to find a place to keep him cool so that he doesn’t melt.

Everywhere that he went, in Piccadilly, is too warm for him. He went to Porky’s Delicatessen, but it was too warm for him. He tried the Barker’s Bakers next door. Alas, it is too warm for him too.

Christmas Eve

What should I write?

Well, this is Christmas Eve when Santa Claus is on his bobsleigh delivering presents at lightning speed to all the children in the dead of night. Saw Santa Clause 2, I guess that’s how Santa really delivers his zillion presents to all :)

And as for me, I’ll be expecting a Harry Potter book for bedtime reading and playing with the air hockey that I bought for my brother.

Well, as for you – hope you have a Merry Christmas and enjoy yourself!

Btw, I’m trying to get into the habit of blogging as I am not usually a blogger myself!
