A couple of months back I entered a competition organised by the folks at Kasih Sayang Resort . All that was needed to do was to submit photos of ourselves or whichever of us IN the resort.  I was one of the winner and I got a complimentary free night's stay! WEEEE.

Why do we do this when we can easily Google all of these sights and Save them as Desktop Background? Because what you see, is then and it's real. An

Every single year I would volunteer to decorate the Christmas Tree and sometimes some of the common areas at home. I said “sometimes” to the common areas because mum would eventually strip off all the danglings that I put up and redecorate the whole place herself -_- and I usually let her win because she has all these really adorable little-little reasons that I am not willing to rebut, like; "Mum, why do you put the birds there, they're weirdly misplaced." "Jacqkie, even the weird birds have feelings Jacqkie. They can hear you and they want a place too."   I would be fine with all the reasons that she has, so I would keep quiet most of the time and let her get her way. Prior to Christmas, the gang decided to have a Christmas dinner together and I suggested to include Secret Santa in the itinerary.  Thank heavens for this online secret santa generator , I was able to include Ellie, Kim, Nat and Mira who were far from home in the list, and all the santee
