Post X'mas Thoughts...
Original Xanga entry ↗So Christmas is over. I decided to rid myself of the festive theme and put up a holding theme while I design my next theme. Was gonna do a New Year's one, but didn't find a suitable one yet. Even considered making one for a countdown to Chinese New Year, but that is going to take some time. I haven't had time to blog, so doing up a new theme will have to wait. It's bad enough that it took me 5 days before I finally managed to upload all the relevant pics and videos to complete 6 blog entries over the past 6 hours. I don't know how long designing a new theme is going to take me.
It's been a really great X'mas. I had expected to be miserable this X'mas, especially with the fact that it is Ash's birthday. However, I wasn't. I barely remembered that it was her birthday, if it wasn't for the date being saved on my phone calender. I didn't call her or sms her, but I do hope that she had a good birthday. Irregardless of what has happened between us, I still wish her well.
Spent most of today at Irene's place playing mahjong. Was glad to go over and be among familiar people who are almost like family. Even though I've had great fun over the past few days, nothing beats being with the people who have known and loved you over the years. Especially since Irene's family has become so much like my own family who are so far away.
After all the parties of the past weeks, plus the other random activities and outings, I think its time for me to take a Time Out and relax a bit. I'm behind in some of my own reflection time plus the year is almost over and I'm no where near finding myself. I really need to stop procrastinating and start getting back to working things out. Too much partying issn't getting me anywhere and is especially hitting my wallet a little too hard. Need to start planning my finances better if I want to maintain my tai tai lifestyle for a bit more.
Have a serious therapy session this coming Thursday. It is going to be a 2 hour session with hypnotherapy aimed at helping me resolve some of my inner issues, especially with events that I have blocked out of my mind. It will be a fairly heavy session and my therapist even recommended that I have something fun planned after the session to take my mind off any negative energy that may be generated. While I am a bit worried, I look forward to it in hopes that it will help me resolve whatever issues that are still lingering in my system. I want to be 100% and more asap so that I can move on with my life!
Anyhow, most people didn't take my X'mas wishlist seriously. In fact, I don't think I got anything on the list! But its ok, I am now converting it to my Birthday Wishlist
This way it gives everyone a whole month to get me the pressies! YAY! But first, introducing two very important gifts I got this year...
Irene and Shawn got me the biggest Piglet ever! This one even tops the bolster sized one that Ray got me a few Valentine's ago. My bed now has 4 different sized piglets and I'm sure there are more to come! They also got me a furry pink tissue box cover. Its sitting on my makeup table right now
Irene bought me a Rose Pink Nintendo DS Lite. With this and the fact that Shawn is a Nintendo-DS-Games-Download-God, commuting will never be boring ever again!
So my new list that will be used for my birthday is as follows:
1. Almost any Book by Haruki Murakami - Except The Elephant Vanishes
2. An OhMiBod becos I'm single 3. A Tiffany Two Hearts Key Ring - I've come to like my mish-mash blend of random keychains (Currently its a Princess Tag, a Statue of Liberty Hello Kitty, A Mini Maine Car Plate with my Name and a metal tag that says "Diva")4. An iPod Classic becos I commute - Commuting time to be occupied by Nintendo DS Lite instead
5. A Metro Tote for my laptop 6. A BMW 3 Series Coupe - Fuel prices have gone up so much I no longer want to own a car
7. Takashimaya Vouchers becos I love shopping 8. An Omega Constellation - I've decided I don't need another watch seeing how I have 8 now
9. A LCD TV for my room
10. A DVD player that plays DivX
11. Adidas Stella Microbounce Daha becos I wanna gym
12. Hugs, Cuddles & Kisses - Although I did get some this X'mas I think I still want more for my birthday
I suppose I will update this list as we get closer to my birthday and I figure out what else I want, but for now, this is the Birthday list
X'mas may be over, but I'm still feeling pretty Merry after all!

I just got No.10 yesterday...hehe..
And why not The Elephant Vanishes? You have it already? or you don't think much of it?
I highly recommend Murakami's "Sputnik Sweetheart".

I've just read "Sputnik Sweetheart" and yes, it is pretty good.
Someone just bought me "The Elephant Vanishes" but I haven't read it yet.
My pile of "To-Read" list is getting loooooonger! Where has all the time gone?
