the un-xmas person

i have to say i’m a very un-xmassy person.

it’s probably due to family influence. my family, being the extremely-chinese kind, doesn’t celebrate christmas at all. to us, it’s just another public holiday. friends around me aren’t either extremely xmas-sy too, which leaves me with a bland xmas every year.

for the past three years, christmas-es have been spent in malaysia. and it’s always with family. foodie-family. this year, we went with the same uncle and family, carrying out similar activities. just that this year, time was a little tight and the weekend was spent on sitting (read: sleeping in various sitting positions) in the car, getting stuck in jams, getting off at highway rest stations and for meals.

at least we got a great variety of street food (i really like msia street food), fantastic ipoh hor fun and chicken and charsiew and meatballs in ipoh, as well yummy seafood back in johor.

and it’s a little too late to reply the xmas sms-es cos i only reached home after midnight yesterday. i guess the same thing will happen next week, cos i’ll be in msia (yes, again) for the new year weekend.

but to all the well-wishes and xmas presents, thank you very, very much.

and to everyone out there, thanks for being there for me.
