Christmas 2007 gathering at Daniel's house.

Wei Qi, Ee Hui, Daniel, Jason, Xian Wang and I gathered at Daniel's house last night to celebrate Christmas.

Had dinner with Wei Qi, Daniel and Xian Wang at the tze char stall near Daniel's flat before we went up to his place. The four of us shared a hotplate tofu, a plate of 咕噜肉, a plate of 宫保鸡丁, a plate of cereal prawns and a piece of BBQ stingray. The 宫保鸡丁 was the best out of all the dishes. The others were just so-so. The total bill came up to $48 and we thought that was quite reasonable.

Jason joined us while we were still having dinner and Ee Hui came later when we were in the middle of an UNO stacko game. We sabotaged Ee Hui by asking her to join the game when the UNO stacko tower was about to tumble. HaHa~! We had lots of fun playing UNO stacko and UNO cards into the wee hours.

After playing for a few hours, we decided to watch a movie instead. We watched 881. It was my second time watching that movie but I still enjoyed it because I was watching it with my friends. =)

We exchanged gifts after the movie and I got Ee Hui's gift. It is a white bear in a Christmas hat. Love it! Wei Qi got my gift, which is a novel titled "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time" by Mark Haddon.

Daniel, Ee Hui, Jason and Xian Wang played mahjong after the gift exchange, while Wei Qi and I watched TV. Ee Hui was the big winner when they ended the session the next morning. Poor Jason only won the last game and lost all the other games.

Dishevelled Irene and Wei Qi.

We went for breakfast at MacDonald's before we leave for home. Everyone was tired but we still managed to have a good chat over breakfast. Though we enjoyed ourselves at the gathering but we still have to say goodbye. Can only see all these good friends at the next gathering, which may be twelve months later. Till then!
