I have been nesting… that’s what happens when you get married and move to a new home. It has been a blur of decorating, fixing and cleaning. Now my home is my haven. Especially the study. However, cosiness breeds laziness. I am now not inclined to go out once I’m home. And I am also inclined to mold myself to the sofa and be happy. Bliss…

We had a couple of parties to usher in the new year. It was a blast. Some of our friends went for watch night service, then came back to the party. The rest of us were too lazy. So we chatted and played taboo. Sooo funny. It’s hilarious how it brings out our kiasu-ism and competitiveness.

We switched off all the lights when it was nearing midnight. Then lit candles everywhere. Everyone held one. Then we counted down, blew all the candles off and hug hug kiss kiss scream scream. Then we opened a bottle of wine and yam seng-ed! That was quite spontaneous and funny actually.

The following week we threw another party for Ad’s friends. I was the good little wife, washing up in the kitchen etc cos Ad did it for our 1^st party. It was quite fun actually. Tung Yin, Sharon and I had a nice chat while the rest of them were bringing the house down with their Taboo game. In the end the ruckus was so incredible the 3 of us ran out of the study to see what brought it on:

Word: Freeloader

A very over excited Koh: “When Leong drinks.. he..??”
Everyone: “Is blur! Is drunk!”
Koh: “No! He never pays…!”
Adrian: “He’s a freeloader!!”
To which everyone screams in laughter and Leong is blur and Koh is so embarrassed and apologizes profusely.

Another one:

Word: Master Bedroom

I forgot who: “Before sex you..” (gets interrupted by):
Henry: “Masterbed…” (gets interrupted as everyone takes it as ‘masturbate’ and won’t let him live it down)
Poor Henry. I think they won’t let him forget this any time soon.

Needless to say I did not cook, nor prepare the food. We conveniently tah pau-ed everything hehe. We don’t even have gas! Good grief. I can get used to not cooking ;) but I don’t think it’s very good for our arteries in the long term.
