Now for the real update...

Last I left all of you with the birthday cliffhanger, we passed Christmas, New year and Chain's birthday. Let me update you one by one.

Christmas.
Had a party on the 23rd at Jinju's friend's cafe. We (bernard chain and me) bought lots of food there... cos the others had lessons till 5 and don't have time to do so. We got tonkatsu, sausages, er... lots of chips and cheese and crackers and vege for salad.. Also got pasta and tuna and pasta sauce and mushrooms... cos Ernest said he would do the cooking. Didn't get drinks cos that's part of the arrangement... we had to get drinks (aka liqour) from the cafe itself. so they don't make that much a loss by not opening to the public for one night. Well the party was quite cool... first we had to wait like 1 hr for all the food to get cooked but it was ok.. we generally talked and played cards (i'm the only one with a pack of cards. and did i mention that it cost me S$20???) Rudy knows how to play Russian poker.. so surprised.. but he's the only one who knows. For those who don't know what the hell that is, its the game u see when you watch 'Gambling God' and stuff like that...

Anyway... the food was nice... crackers and cheese with tomatoes and cucumber, nachos with salsa dip, tuna pasta in olive oil and tomato sauce pasta with ham and mushrooms... and a very big bowl of salad... which we didn't finish.. Then we played King game again... or Queen (Quin) game as Jinju likes to put it.. Anyway this collegue of Jinju came, and she got to be King (queen) twice, which culminated in Bernard nearly kissing Jiwon and Chain, and Ernest kissing Bernard, and me dropping Jinju on the floor like a ton of bricks. We drank 2 bottles of red wine and some beer as well...

And then that was about the end of the party... oh yea we had a cake too... with snowmen and reindeer on it haha.
