The MOST Memorable Christmas Ever

In my entire 19 years of my life on this earth, nothing is comparable, to the love ones i have this year.

Christmas Eve

A yearly family reunion at the Kiong's Residence at 630pm.

A dinner with two tables, one for the parentals and the other for the cousins.

Before the dinner commences, *in the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit, the prayer is said.

A look around, i see all my cousins, my aunts and uncles, grandma, brother, mom and dad.

A total of 20 persons.

Laughters heard,
Jokes Shared,
All of these, which i've yearn so badly for the past long years.

It's been a good 15years since a family gathering as such.

For once, i hope the clock stopped ticking so that i can enjoy these moments forever and ever.

Midnight mass at Holy Trinity's together.

The 3 cuzzies sitting side by side.

Ahh... it feels so right and good.


Christmas Day

Grandaunty's place over at Bukit Timah. A total of 24 persons were in the house. We had the authentic ayam buakala, babi potei, archa, sambal blachan, many more peranakan dishes. Oooh.. sedap la!

Gathered around for carolling sing-a-long session, can u imagine 24 of us singing?

cousin illiana, the most talented singing, next musical star, as Belle in Beauty and the Beast grace us with a performance of Silent Night. and she got us all speechless.. fantastic! the cameras were all going off as if she was walking along the red carpet.

We changed into our sarong kebaya and the gentleman changed to their batik shirts. For a family potrait photo. my mom organised a photographer to take family shots. Oh boy, the whole house atmosphere was just fantasitc, imagine having Lenggang kangkong music on the background, followed by rasa sayang and so forth... splendid.

all my love ones are present. ALL!
ALL my cousins were present: Bernard, Allison, Junior, Illiana, Jeremy, Jacqueline, Peter and Grace(me) I have never had a full cousins picture.


BEST CHRISTMAS EVER! i sincerely Thank GOD for making all these happen. Praise the Lord.

For dinner, went to Aunty's baby place over at Preston Road. Yipo and Aunty baby, are great chefs. their turkey that they cooked are simply the best, tender!!! endless supply of red wine, my mom's sides of cousins were there, Ralph and Ryan. My Godma as well. PerFecto!
