China is turning me into a full-blown auntie. I spent 2 hours in carrefour just now. Then came home to hang clothes. It was such a tragedy when our washing machine broke down and we had to hand-wring my unwashed clothes to let them dry till they could be washed again when the machine was fixed. Our fingers almost dropped off due to the cold water and air. Thanks to our dear agent-friend we got the machine fixed in 2 days. Yips :)

Am looking forward to Christmas! Christmas cards, celebrations and all :)) Yay going for outing with our 推拿 intern-friend tmr, hope it'll be fun! :)) He's bringing us to some food street thingy, and you know how I can't resist food :D Which reminds me of tonight's dinner - we bought FISH!!! Marinated black pepper fish from Carrefour. Should be nice right? It's ironic how we can hiam that the frozen prawns are expensive and avoid buying them but grab packets of pocky mousse and milk tea without any hesitation. Lol. I've become such a junk bin.

The hot topic of conversation nowadays is the weather. The lift auntie never fails to chuckle and comment "觉得冷了吧?" when we return home. Checking daily forecasts has become a necessary habit. It's now about how far below zero the temperature drops. And the wind can kill. I'm really considering the ski mask ;) I wish we had a fireplace at home.
