The Design People Christmas Party at Opus (Resorts World)
I wasn't feeling well this night, so I didn't really enjoy it much. I got in about an hour late, and the finger food was already mostly gone. Posh location, though, and everyone was dressed to the nines. I had to leave early because I was getting a headache and sort of getting hungry. Had a late dinner at McDonald's with my sis, who accompanied me to the venue because I couldn't drive alone.
With my college buddies
It was Fungi's idea to meet up at UP and then drive to the floating (fishing?) restaurant in Pililla, but when we got to our meeting place at 11AM, he said we were already too late for lunch because we still had to fish. I don't know why he set the meet-up at 11AM, though, if it was going to be too late. The guy's weird! XD
So anyway, we ended up at the new UP Town Center, which none of us have been to and which was only a few minutes away from the meeting place. We had a hearty ramen lunch at Ryu (which was ho-hum). We roamed the rest of the area after lunch, but there really wasn't anything much to look at. So we drove off to Katipunan and had coffee and cake at Banapple, which was where the above photo was taken.
Christmas with the family
This year, we didn't follow our tradition where we open gifts at exactly 12 midnight because our new baby, Aky, was already asleep. We opened gifts in the morning when he woke up.
Holiday Meet-up with the Literati at SM Aura
Had lunch with some of my ex-officemates at Cafe Mary Grace in SM Aura. I really miss these guys and their conversation!
