Short takes
Suffering from fatigue and tryptophan overload, so this is my Christmas season in short. At the same time, let's pray for the quake victims. Death toll has risen to over 23,000 and more tsunamis are expected in the next two days.
24th -- Christmas Eve: Christmas Eve Dinner with family. Did some very last-minute shopping which saw cranberry sauce sold out at both Cold Storage and NTUC. Turkey count: One.
25th -- Christmas Day: Christmas service at church. Lunch at Marché. Dinner at uncle's house with rest of extended family. Turkey count: Two.

My uncle always takes care of the smallest details: down to the centrepieces.

Baby Ben gets tons of presents underneath the Christmas tree on his first Christmas.
26th -- Boxing Day: Church in the morning. More last-minute shopping for ice-cream. Prepared ridiculous amounts of food. Steamboat dinner with JC classmates. Won four out of four at Taboo. Got lost in Woodlands whilst sending people home. Watched Super Size Me with those who decided to stay over. Slept close to 7 AM. Turkey count: Three.

Forfeit drink which my friend and I concocted but -- thankfully -- never got to drink. A cocktail of wheat germ, coffee, Bovril, and apple cider vinegar. Apologies if anyone got diarrhoea from drinking it.
27th -- Back to business: Awoke late afternoon. Cleaned up mess from last night. Half-packed room. Had dinner. Received phone call from cousin to ask where we were. Had clean forgotten about a wedding dinner we were due to attend. Arrived at Trader's Hotel at 9 PM. Missed the first dish, but otherwise proceeded to have dinner for the second time. Turkey count: Leftovers.
