This year's pre-new year events were pretty happening. Last night, being the eve of new year's eve, my mum, brother and I went to the markets around my place to do some last minute shopping, since the shops were opened throughout the night. After all the walking, we were hungry, so settled at Crystal Jade for a bowl of congee. By the time we reached home was almost 2am.

Had reunion dinner with my paternal extended family in the Chinese restaurant at the Singapore Recreation Club. Since we ended dinner early, we went to the River Hongbao, which is just next to the club. The festive mood was really present, especially when there were so many performances and people there. I know I am a Singaporean, but seriously, it is the first time in my life going to midnight markets and the River Hongbao. I left after a while anywayz. (Too warm!)

After shower, I got into my new pyjamas. I have 4 new sets this year, so I was kinda spoilt for choices... I have to confess how BLESSED I really am. For the past 20 years of my life, my grandma has been making me new sets of pyjamas for me every year WITHOUT FAIL. I can never sleep without those HAND-MADE pyjamas...
