It's the season to be piggy... lalala

Major peeeeeg out since christmas eve! ARRGGHH!!

My departmental christmas lunch was a super sumptuous! 1000-buck budget for a whole lot of food from Goodwood Park Hotel... waahh... this is definitely one extremely rich department. 1 week ago, we were already pre-empted by our very excited registrar who ordered the food. She said she ordered 8 kinds of meat for all of us!!! Wow! bet she had a really great time going "ok.. this this this that that this..." yeah... quite impressed with the 8 kinds of meat... turkey, honey-baked ham, lamb ribs, beef, LOBSTER, roasted chicken, foie gras... shucks i forgot what's the last meat.



Everyone had a jolly good time... dancing, drinking wine, peeging out, singing carols, playing foosball! oh yeah... can u imagine our department bought a foosball table for us to play?!?! this is welfare to the max! reiterates the fact that our department's rich huh?



After lunch, i headed off home for christmas dinner with my family and aunt. more food! despite not having digested my sumptuous lunch. haha!

Hai... i was on call on christmas day... but this didn't stop us from enjoying the festive season and indulging in more food! we had more turkey, pohpiah, indian curry, etc stocked up in our pantry and basically just popped by to eat and eat whenever we have free time from the work!

Met up with my dear jc bandmates for some catching up on boxing day... it must of course involve some food. (Singaporeans really know how to eat! we eat for every occasion!) Had dinner at a hongkong cafe and then proceeded to Selegie St for some Youtiao Tau Hway.

More to come... Had a thai-style party at my colleague's house on saturday... lotsa gossipping over yummy tomyam soup, thai fried rice and green curry chicken. Not to mention the yummy thai desserts with their sinful coconut milk dressing!

And finally, Huiyu n John's wedding dinner at Pan Pacific Hotel yesterday. I was SOOOO scared i won't be able to fit into my black tube dress after all the peeging out. Phew! hurray for good genes from my parents... i can still zip it up! haha!

Gosh... thank goodness for training on sunday which eased the guilt totally! I dragged myself outta bed at 7am on sunday despite sleeping at 2am after the party the nite before. It was really a struggle but i told myself i NEEEEED this training... otherwise i'll feel guilty for the rest of the week.

Under the bright scorching sun in the company of my energetic teammates, i ran 2.something km, worked up my muscles n heart during race sets and felt my guilt slowly being washed away by yucky kallang water. hurray for training! totally allows me to indulge in all these good food and yet not feel fat and unhealthy. haha!
