1 more month to go!

Christmas is just round the corner! exactly a month later from today, i foresee myself enjoying a hot Christmas Eve night.. doing nothing at all because of a super long weekend ahead! 2 days of public holidays on Christmas Day and Proclamation Day plus 2 more days of the weekend!!! wahaha!!!

for Christmas in the office, MJ has come up with a Bake-off! today Sarah brought in her Chocolate & Raspberry Cake, which was yummy.. i dont think i have ever wolf down a slice of chocolate cake this fast! ha! last week MJ brought in a tray of current slices, which were very good but a little too fruity for me.. still great though.. there will be 2 volunteers each week from next week onwards.. which means loads of food! and on the 19th, the Christmas 'Party' at work begins from lunch hour and the results of the Bake-off will be announced on that day!

on my part for Christmas, i bought a box Christmas cards.. which is a miserable attempt to get into the mood of Christmas.. ha! even though there will be no snow flakes to catch, it's still a good excuse to do shopping and to send my greetings to friends who are far away.. i like that!

i have been very slack on my reading ever since i started work.. i am guilty of that! last week, Sis called and asked me to check the price of the book 'Twilight', which i have never heard of..

i went to Borders the next day during lunch hour.. i barely finished saying the word 'Twilight' before the lady said, "it's over there" and pointed to a whole wall stacked full of 'Twilight'.. i muttered my thanks, overwhelmed by the fact that i wasnt the tiny bit aware of the existence of such a popular book! i took 2 steps before turning around and asked the same lady, "is it really popular?" Honestly, in my head "DUH~" was the answer.. but the lady was nice and said, "it's really brilliant!"

Gosh, of course it's brilliant! the producers picked Cedric as the lead! Wahaha! imagine my joy! poor Cedric didnt survived long enough in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.. i'm happy that he is now the lead in this movie.. which is pretty much the same genre as the Harry Potter series.. when Sis gets here, we'll be watching the movie together!
