Of all things Santa & Christmas

Today so many things is happening at once. I helped with my colleague who dressed up as Santa to give out some Rex presents to all the colleagues. I was labelled Santa's little helper. I dun think I am little though...



As Santa goes around the office booming 'Ho, Ho, Ho! Merry Christmas!', I handled to Santa little presents where he will give to all the colleagues regardless they were naughty or nice.

I have plenty more pics on how I helped Santa spread some cheer. Will update the pics when I get my hands on them.

Jac was our Santarina today. She gave all Corporate Comm girls little presents. I like it when she told us she gave a lot of thought into each presents she chose for us and also how these were the presents she wanted for herself. I have enough of thoughtless towels and countless chocs as Chrissy presents.


Jac the Santarina.


Everyone always like a pose with their Santas, which in this case, my Santarina


Check out my present. This lip gloss cum key chain comes in so handy when I forget my lip gloss cos I will be wearing it on my key chain. Great for busy woman like me

And also, as with the yearly Rex tradition, we did a round of Secret Santas. Pior to the week before, we drew names out of a hat and we will be that person's Secret Santa. My Secret Santa is none other than my colleague-cum-mini boss Ryan.

He joked before that if he gets any of the Asian colleagues as his Secret Santa givee, he will buy chopsticks or fortune cookie. As usual, I tsked him and when I found out that he is my Secret Santa, he told me he bought me a pair of chopsticks and a 2min noodle set. But, to my pleasant surprise, he gave me this:


He made me a personal Christmas bauble! It is so perfectly done that I could not believe he did it himself. And the Rochers are a nice touch, although I will not be eating all of them myself.

Here's a pic of me with my Secret Santa


Must tell you guys something funny.
I was busy with the Christmas buffet preparation when Kim, my colleague, brought her 2 little daughters Brianna & Taylah to mind as well. She told her girls my name is Eliss and we had a little chat.

Brianna: Excuse me, is your name really Eliss?

Me: Yeah. Why?

Taylah: Well, we have a friend in kindy and her name is Eliss too.

Me: Wow! So is she as pretty as me?

Brianna: Erm...she looks a bit different from you. She has blond hair and she looks younger than you.

Me: ......... -_-|||

Happy Christmas everyone!
