Hello hello!! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
Can you imagine it’s already been a year since last Christmas?! Eep. I also spent Christmas very differently this year as it was a lot more eventful than our usual small family gathering. But it was crazy fun and I enjoyed every bit of it :’D
23rd – Evening dinner with Relatives
24th – Work till ~6pm & Small Family dinner / present opening!
25th – Home made Lunch w/ Dinner at Relative’s apartment in the city
The past few days were incredibly exhausting, but I guess that’s what made it worth while!
Christmas is definitely my favourite holiday! To me, it’s the holiday where we can be surrounded with family and loved ones; eat delicious food, joke around and exchange awesome gifts! And more importantly, it’s the time of year where we can let go of everything negative and just bask in the warm collective arms of our friends and family! ♥
I’m a little tired now so here are some random snapshots from Christmas!
I’m also very thankful for my Christmas presents this year !!
I should mention that gift giving is a huge thing in my family and it’s always so stressful ! *_*
Mum&Dad: Alannah Hill Wallet, Estee Lauder Make Up Set, Emerald City Gifts, 4 Black Milk Leggings, Gucci Guilty
Brother: Ooh Lala Bag, 2013 Diary | Sister: Eyelashes, Lancome Lipgloss & Assorted goods
KK (Ann-So & Jasmine): Handmade Jewellery | Box of Assorted Aweomness !! *_*
I decided to be a lot more generous in my gifting this year as I was working quite a bit!
So this year I gave: Dior Poison Perfume Set, Cookbook (Mum), TShirt, Mini Guitar (Dad), iPad Mini + Case (Both of them!), PS3 Move + Games (Brother), Clinique Products (Sister), Hope in a Box (Aunty), Chocolates, Perfumes + Smiggle Set (Cousins once removed) plus my Christmas packages to Jennifer, Lis, Serena and Katie!

awwww you got spoilt rotten this year melody! hope u had a wonderful christmas ^^
You too amandaaaa!!! I can’t wait to see you :3
So many gifts! *_* My family is not as big on gift giving so the gifts I received were either money or prepaid gift cards. Simple and easy gifts! One notable gift though, from my mum because I asked her for it LOL, was this cat bank that rises from the box when you put coins on the designated spot. I don’t know if you’ve seen it before, but its really cool!
Does your dad play guitar? I noticed that you gave him a guitar as a gift. or was that just for him to develop a hobby?
OH I KNOW THAT!! It’s so cute hehe x3 and ooh it’s interesting to hear how everyone celebrates Christmas differently! Our Christmas shopping is like even more important than birthdays! Ahaha and yes! Dads been a guitarist for years and years so it seemed fitting (we have the exact same acoustic guitar!)
Your skin is so milky and fair *~* looks like a cute family gathering!
Thank you *_*
Apparently it’s because my aunty fed me a pearl when I was a baby :S
Even though I’m not religious, I love Christmas too! The loving and exciting atmosphere makes me giddy.
Great gifts (to and from) Melody!
Yes! I don’t think you need to be religious to get in to the Christmas spirit!! And thank youuuu :)
WOW MEL that’s a lot of presents! <3 We don't celebrate Christmas so it was just another day for us. But we did do a small gift exchange hahaha :)
I thought that mini guitar was the usual sized one until I saw your iPhone beside it! xD
Great to hear you enjoyed Christmas this year!!
Gift exchange is still funnnn *__*
And hahaah that’s why I put my phone there cos it looks so real!!
Oh, how I love Christmas! >w<
