Come Away with Me

What did you do on Christmas Day?

Christmas is not a public holiday in Japan and so I went to work as usual. It's a queer feeling knowing that everyone back home was probably still fast asleep. I believe that in the city, there were some activities going on but here in the countryside, it was just an ordinary day. As it is the winter break now, there were no lessons and i did nothing much the entire day, if you count surfing the net and chatting over MSN as 'work' :p

Made myself a simple dinner after i got home and watched the trailer of The Holiday on Youtube while seated at my kotatsu eating piping hot white stew. What i really missed is going to the movies with Alvin. The Holiday may not have the most brilliant plot i know but i am a sucker for such feel good romantic comedies, especially those filmed during the Christmas season!


The Christmas tree at home, decorated by mom and Rosie this year :)

Beautifully wrapped presents underneath the tree!

Creative mommy thought of a way to decorate the dining room with those lights my brother bought at IKEA but had no idea what to use them for :p

Whatever you did, i hope all of you had a Merry Christmas!
