Kinda fitting that my 400th post lands on Christmas =) Pretty eventful last week despite the lack of hall trainings... THREE simulataneous activites, of which, sadly, I could only go for one, landed on Saturday afternoon =/ A FM gathering, a S15 outing and a family gathering. But blood being thicker than all other fluids (well, morally at least), I chose the latter. Ack, though I still miss my class...

And yesterday! Ahhh haha...

Carolling at Quality Hotel, whose ballroom we use for services on Sunday! It was really fun to return to carolling after dunno how many years! Singing our larynxes into our pharynxes, even though we weren't highly trained or anything... And, as we prayed, everything went smoothly, the best performance of all (Hsia Pin said cos today there were more guys than ever before so the guy-bits didn't sound so underpowered heh)

And everyone was put into touch with their inner-officer cadet =Pp

Yen Chin and I were stuck in the second row right at the end, where we didn't mind too much cos it was less easy to embarrass ourselves haha, and yet it wasn't too hot and stuff (and under those fluorescent lights it WAS hot and stuffy haha)

My aunts (one of whom's not in the picture)/uncle/cousins from Malaysia who came to watch...

And the hotel allowed us to go into the coffeehouse to eat their Christmas buffet cos it was late already and there weren't many people left heh... Took more group photos...

Siblings

Family and all....

And I think most of us were very high at the end of the thing (no we didn't drink anything more potent than pineapple juice)... Went home and puttered around until midnight when each of us children got a stocking with a lot of unhealthy stuff from our parents heheh... Also a shirt from my paternal relatives, a T-shirt from my maternal relatives and a book on small arms, recoiless rifles, artillery pieces and generally most weapons from WW1 till now from my father hoho (with a picture of a M16A4 on the cover)..

Oh yea and everyone who didn't know what to give me gave me money to sponsor buying an extra foil...

But the picture says it all, Christmas this year was certainly eventful!
