For the past few weeks I have been spending precious time with the family. The last minute trip to Malacca with the sis & Hyung-Bu was a good relaxing getaway. Simple, by coach, not much shopping, tons of eating Korean & Japanese, lots of walking around old town, old places, old buildings. Christmas day, we were celebrating the birthday of the family bachelor, yummy dinner, all 14 of us at Sedap Corner. My first visit to Marina Barrage was with the whole entourage too. Strolling by the bay,chilling wind, daddy with the 'tongkat', mum shouting at the cucus who's running rampage in the dark night. Earlier today, we send off the little Xiao-mei to Jakarta - almost the whole clan,brother, sister,mum,dad, 4 kids. Then a nice lunch at T3. After weeks of non-retail therapy, the siblings & the mum(sans the Xiaomei that is) headed to Singapore Expo to check out the Warehouse sales. I am very proud to say I carried myself well, parting with less than $100, most of which were for the husband,mum & kids.
Looking back at the past few weeks, I would say its a good end to the year...
