Contemporary Boxing Day is now, in many countries is now a "shopping holiday" associated with after-Christmas sales.

okay. no. what really went down was dinner at Jack's Place AMK with Juanita, such a nice lady and baby's ex-colleague Shu Fen together with some other SPH, or rather ex-SPH people.
Dinner was good. baked potatoes are awesome!
The conversation was good. its nice talking to Juanita =)
and im glad baby enjoyed herself.
dinner was followed by a movie, Yes Man, which was kinda... alright. but only kinda, because of some funny parts of the show.. some of which i cant remember already. at all.
does that make it kinda alright still? or a typical forgettable show? i guess the latter then. i dont know either!
it was funny while it lasted though. 1130pm show.. lasted all the way to 1.30am!
just the typical 3/5 rating.
great. and i wasnt driving that night. which meant taxi! taxi!
but
WAIT! baby and i walked juanita home. a distance of 1.192km, of which i'll add 300m to it because we walked back to collect some stuff from juanita. such a nice lady. she brought it down again for baby.
okay. what went down next was crazy yet awesome. =)
we walked. yes. we walked. actually we were just strolling.. like a nice quiet couple stroll for a short while before cabbing back to her place. but hey! we walked and we walked and we walked.
and soon we were so near our destination that we just decided to walk back =)
step by step we walked, holding my baby's hand along the way, on roads uneven and unpaved, smooth and paved, we walked each step together.
the clop clop clop of the heel on my shoe as we walked sometimes the only sound filling the night as we walked in silence occasionally.
it was cool rather than chilly at that time of the night (2am), but i was warm in heart as all i needed was right beside me, holding on to my hand *silly grin*
was crazily fun and romantic at the same time if you think back. you dont know how happy i was to be able to do such a crazy thing with my baby. (though i got sticky and rather sweaty at the end of it).
baby we should do stuff like this more often. alright?
but it was still so much fun that i could have walked all night with her, if she wanted to that is.
so a distance of approximately 5.687km we walked, from Juanita's home to baby's place. which inclusive of the 1.492km from the mall to juanita's home makes it a total of...
7.179km! oh yes.
we walked that distance in slightly more than an hour.
its an achievement. maybe not so for you, but very much so for us.
great =)
totally wonderful experience. of course, i cabbed home afterwards.
but that's nothing interesting to write about.
=)
happy holidays!
i'll never forget the first night we walked.
