This is a delayed post by about a month, partly because I'm lazy and secondly I was buzy.
Anyways, Last year's Christmas was a breath of fresh air for me.
Decided to fulfill a Kid's Shelter Xmas wishes; as organised by a friend, M.
M posted this Project 6" Rainbow and asked her fellow friends to chip in or help out. And somehow the spiriit of Xmas led me and several of her friends to do just that.
It started with us bringing KFC lunch as well as all their gifts and necessities in a convoy to Klang.
Seeing the kids having KFC for lunch makes me feel very appreciative of what I have and what I can afford for myself. Thinking back of my childhood, I guess mine wasn't too bad after all.
The home had reared pets to instill the loving and nurturing habit among the kids. They had rabbits as well as a pet dog at the home.

I miss sitting on this swing in my grandmother's house in Malacca...
Finger licking good!

The many gifts that we brought for the children

The pet poodle they kept at the home was always looking into the house. Unfortunately we didnt bring it any gifts.

I saw one kid loving his yo-yo so much he kiseed it repeatedly!

CY consoling a girl. Good training ;-P
The many necessities we brought to the home.
The wonderful Santarinas that came!
And lastly, a group pic with all the kids.
What better way than to end the night with Shrek and my own Gingerbread man.
A lot of good times are about to come soon. Things like, Sultan of Selangor's Birthday, Awal Muharram, Christmas, New Yearand not to mention my birthday (hehee mine comes first among the list ;-p) are coming soon. a lot of things to celebrate and yet many things for us to ponder and reflect upon as the year draws to a close. Thing like what we have done this year and our plans for next year are usually made in this month.
While all of us do the merry and deep thinking stuff, this is my favourite Christmas song: Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You. Already feeling all Cristmas-sy thanks to the ambience in the shopping malls. Enjoy the song!!
I don't want a lot for Christmas There's just one thing I need I don't care about the presents Underneath the Christmas tree I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true All I want for Christmas is... You
I don't want a lot for Christmas There's just one thing I need I don't care about the presents Underneath the Christmas tree I don't need to hang my stocking There upon the fireplace Santa Claus won't make me happy With a toy on Christmas day I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true All I want for Christmas is you You baby
I won't ask for much this Christmas I don't even wish for snow I'm just gonna keep on waiting Underneath the mistletoe I won't make a list and send it To the North Pole for Saint Nick I won't even stay awake to Hear those magic reindeers click 'Cause I just want you here tonight Holding on to me so tight What more can I do Baby all I want for Christmas is you Ooh baby All the lights are shining So brightly everywhere And the sound of children's Laughter fills the air And everyone is singing I hear those sleigh bells ringing Santa won't you bring me the one I really need Won't you please bring my baby to me...
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas This is all I'm asking for I just want to see my baby Standing right outside my door Oh I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true Baby all I want for Christmas is... You
All I want for Christmas is you... baby (repeat and fade)
