'tis the season for a ramble

this is the most gorgeous amethyst ring i've ever seen. haha. but its crazy expensive. december has been a whirl, like seriously (pronounced the andrew way - see-ry-eous-ly). the first week was spent in korea, the second in hongkong, the third in youth camp. and this is the fourth week - the Christmas week! i had planned on doing the december daily album. but with camp, i got side-tracked. i think its going to be another UFO (un-finished object). andrew and i haven't finished our Christmas presents yet, we're planning to finish it tonight. i'm really pleased with the presents we came up with this year, cos we planned ahead, and thereby put a lot of thought into it, so its really meaningful. and i've kinda lost the photo-bug, i think its because i took copious amounts of photos while on holiday. that day in disneyland, i took more than 1000 for that place alone, just to give you an idea of the amount. so, yea! right now, i'm in a baking mood. mel and i plan to make apple pie again or apple crumble for the yf/yaf anniversary. i'm wondering if we should make rice crispy treats just for old time sakes. i need a new oven. dad said he was going to get one, but with everything that has been happening he hasnt yet. ahwells. THREE days to Christmas! very exciting. (: lost the Christmas mood for a bit because i was in camp and there was a lot of reflection and thinking going on. but now, back to home and the real world, and the shopping and the hustle and bustle, the Christmas mood is coming back. i just added more recipes to my recipe folder - i actually consolidated this huge ole ring binder file with all my mom's old recipes and mine. then i realised it was too much of a hassle to keep lugging it out, and it was difficult to find the recipes that i always use. so i made softcopies of some that i always use and compiled mine into a smiggle folder. and i feel like making hama bead snowflakes. sherwin's making them now and they are very cute. maybe tonight. okay, shall get back to my 1000+ google reader entries to read and thereby end my monologue. 
ttfn!
