Ohgosh. so much is happening all at one time.
Merabok is amazing. Lazing in hammocks and reading. Swimming in waterfalls. Testing my surefooted-ness (not at all) Disappearing from the world and just listening to running water. Falling asleep holding hands. Natural fish spas. I didnt even use my ipod because I didn't want to cancel out the natural sounds surrounding us. The Bongs were right, it was indescribable. I had like a picture spam post about it, but Im just so swamped.
Christmas was lovely.
Christmas Eve: Mum, Sissy and I went back to the old neighborhood. I love it so much, its completely different from staying in a HBD flat. All the neighbours still remember me as a 11 year old kid. After that I did somemore wrapping and rushed down by cab to meet up with the Northeasterners. I miss when we had a group big enough to do this, when Christmas meant dressing up all pretty and attending midnight mass together, oh how we've grown.
Christmas: Was a mad rush. I got up at 9am for 930am mass. Then i knocked up until my mum woke me to tell me lunch was ready. I really dont know what I've done to deserve a mother like her. She did all the food prep by herself even though we were supposed to help. After lunch, I knocked out again (yes, what a pig) then I woke up in time for Bong's family dinner which was amazing as usual. The peppermint bark was quite a hit, Thank God. Then Mon Lupine and I split ways and I went to Jon's place. It was nice seeing the old boys.
Boxing Day: Tested my patience working at IKEA, you'd think people would GIVE IT A REST with the furniture buying. BUT NO, they didnt. FML
27th Dec: Dinner at Berns! I was about to head to school when i got the world's best phone call from Debbie, class was cancelled! YESYESYES! went down to town to run some errands then headed home to hang out with mum. Bern's is a master cook. She made leg of lamb, pasta, soup, nectrine crumble..there was wine which Justine and I pretty much monopolized.
If all goes well *crosses fingers*, we will be crossing the border this Saturday. I dont know where I'm going to find time to study for that 4 chapter test and to write my 2000 word essay. WISH ME LUCK. =\
