Today was my last day at work before Christmas. I have 2 and a half weeks ahead of me, and I don't know what to do with them. To make matters worse, Anusha will be working for much of that time. What can I do? Watching movies and visiting the cybercafe is fine every once in a while, but for this long? I'll go mad for sure.

For my work colleagues, they can finally have their Hari Raya food fest this weekend. Must have been the longest month of the entire year!

This year is quite special, because Hari Raya, Christmas and Chinese New Year fall extremely close. This has made booking a holiday of any kind impossible. Annoying, considering this is a tropical country, and the thought of Christmas Day on a nice beach with palm trees was rather enticing. Well, I can always live in hope...
