YUp,it was a foggy morning earlier.

I would have rather stayed in my room and play online games on line...but then again, for 2 years in a row, i haven't joined any of my house/villamates in their mini-parties/celebration coz I was always out partying or going out with friends.

Your Ms. Red POPE (she's Filipina, right?)may have explained it to you that Christmas and New Year are the days when filipinos in Qatar feel HOMESICKNESS the most.

I'm also a SINNER...I'm no saint...but don't coax the "she-devil" in me...not on this day, anyway...PEACE.

Happy New Year to you too...

all of my villa/housemates. 7 rooms = 7 families - 7 to 10 food dishes = overflowing with (spirited)drinks = non-stop videoke singing and dancing :-D

We did some exchange gifts, some games it was FUN.

I just woke up to check QL and greet everyone a Happy New Year and I'm going back to bed till noon.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!!! :-)
