I stayed at home doing absolutely nothing on Christmas Day other than paint my nails green and watched the half-working Christmas lights at the front of my house and so my parents compensated for that by taking me out yesterday on Boxing Day, to dine out at a restaurant in 'The Star' (I'm so use to calling it Star City) called Lotus Pond. The food there had a similar taste to Iron Chef and wasn't too amazing, but I really liked how fancy the restaurant was. I had never been to a restaurant that required booking beforehand in my life.

Since we parked our car in the Darling Harbourside Parking Lot, we also shopped around for a bit. I really liked the atmosphere there but because it was sweating hot and stuffy, we didn't spend much time shopping before making our way to the restaurant. I met Shannen Tran and Larissa Tran in Temt and I was unlucky in finding a nice Bikini. :( I guess it's online shopping from now on and exercising too, I have gotten too chubby lately.

After we ate, we took a stroll about the newly renovated The Star or Star City, whichever name suits your liking, to familiarize ourselves with the clothing (G-Star, Calvin Klein and Chanel/Gucci) and food stores. My first time being at Adriano Zumbo and I didn't buy a single thing, not even a Macaroon, because I was so full after dinner. Mum said she'll drop by after work to buy me something frequently. Yay!

So that sums up how I spent Christmas and Boxing Day. I'm sure you guys probably spent them better than how my family did, I'm guessing fun House BBQs and sparking sticks? You see, the cleaning up is too much for us so we're rarely bothered, hehe. Hope you all had a wonder Christmas and received lots of presents!
