yuletide carols

christmas, isn't christmas...
till it happens... in your heart....

i know it is 2007 already and that christmas has since been long and over, but heck! i haven't had enough of christmas!!!

think about it, don't you think that christmas is just too short??? i mean, shopping malls don't put up any christmas decorations until perhaps around end of november/early december! radio stations don't play christmas songs much until perhaps a few days BEFORE the actual day!!! where are the decorations akin to that of fenwick's window displays? what happened to carolling??? where's the christmas spirit? where's the celebrations?!!

and also... i believe in the 12 days of christmas... as per the song and so, today is technically... the 9th day of christmas!!!

on the 9th day of christmas my true love gave to me...
9 ladies dancing!!!

and so, i have 3 more days of celebrating christmas!!! 3 more days!!!

O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy leaves are so unchanging;
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy leaves are so unchanging;
Not only green when summer's here,
But also when 'tis cold and drear.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy leaves are so unchanging!

O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me;
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me;
How often has the Christmas tree
Afforded me the greatest glee!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me.

O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy candles shine so brightly!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy candles shine so brightly!
From base to summit, gay and bright,
There's only splendor for the sight.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy candles shine so brightly!

this christmas was the first time me and jian got to spend christmas together!!! last year i spent christmas in sabah and he was in penang and so this christmas really meant something to me. to us, i'm sure.

i had so much fun and i was fed so much food that it was definitely worth the insane rush at work, the mad dash home, the no-proper-dinner-4-hour-long-car-ride-up-to-penang, and the flu-i-caught-becos-someone's-aircon-was-on-20degrees-and-i-had-no-blanket!!!

i lurrve my christmas presents and i'm thankful for so many things that if i start listing them out, this post would probbly take forever!!! but most of all, i'm thankful i got to spend christmas with jian and his family.

and with that... i say...

have a holly jolly christmas
it's the best time of the year

note: coming soon, as and when the internet connection permits, new year celebrations!
