Posted in Quizzes, meme with tags , on December 24, 2008 by lizzaeh

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?

Wrapping paper even though I wrapped all of this year’s presents very badly. And I love buying paper. So its another excuse to buy papery things. :D

2. Real tree or Artificial?

I don’t think we actually have much a choice ‘ere.

3. When do you put up the tree?

We haven’t put it up for years. Have I mentioned that both the tree and the decorations are older than me? Yeah it doesn’t go up anymore because 1) too lazy to put it up 2) too lazy to take it down. Same theory applies to putting up the flag for national day. =x

4. When do you take the tree down?

Refer to last question.

5. Do you like eggnog?

I don’t think so.

6. Favorite gift received as a child?

Hmmmmmmmm… that talking doll that I could feed stuff to.

7 . Hardest person to buy for?

MY SISTER. SHE’S SO FUSSY. :(

8. Easiest person to buy for?

HM… It’s never very easy.

9. Do you have a nativity scene?

No but I think the quaint wooden ones are very purdy….

10. Mail or email Christmas cards?

Sigh, mail. I didn’t send out as many as I wanted this year and most of you will get it late. And I’m also sad because the only postcard I’ve received so far is from Joce and reads “the only thing i know about you these days is lizzy@____” with reference to my msn nick. And next year all those people who have been perennially unappreciative will get NO CARD. HMPH.

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received?

WHERE SHOULD I BEGIN? Probably my aunt’s really bad China/Thailand/pasar malam bought clothes/bags. Every year sis and I open it with trepidation because without fail we will never like anything that comes out of that wrapper.

12. Favorite Christmas Movie?

The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. I love Dr. Seuss! :D

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?

When I start panicking two weeks before Christmas…

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?

Yes. I just hope that the present never gets back to the original sender, that would be embarrassing. To save yourself the trouble, please don’t give me: photo frames, bath soap and related accessories regardless of how costly they are because these are just crying to be recycled. UNLESS, of course the photo frame is DIY-ed like Joyce’s and it has my face in it, lots of love and white glue then yes by all means I want it. :)

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas ?

WHERE DO I START? :D

Christmas cookies. :) Zimmstern star cookies are my totalz favourite and I must must must must have them every year. And gingerbread men. I love gingerbread men. X) Peppermint choc frappe which Starbucks OBVIOUSLY DOESN’T HAVE THIS YEAR (but Coffee Bean does!). Stuffed turkey. And dessert things in general with loads of cinnamon and nutmeg. *makes me happy just thinking about it*

16. Lights on the tree?

Yes please. The gradual glowy ones. One of my neighbours has a really really pretty Christmas tree and lighted reindeers.

17. Favorite Christmas song?

Avalon – We are the Reason

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home?

Home. There was only one year where we spent Christmas in HK and it was fun. Actually I don’t really remember what we do on Christmas these days ‘cuz we’re all grown up now and we don’t even get many presents much less bother waiting till Christmas to open them. I remember waiting with such great anticipation till midnight on Christmas eve to open my presents – which I was never allowed to rip because Mom always recycles wrapping paper.

19. Can you name all of Santa’s reindeer?

Errrrrrrrrrrrr. Rudolph. Er. Rudolph?

20. Angel on the tree top or a star?

It was always a star.

21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning?

When the clock strives 12mn and its officially the 25th. :D Back then, at least.

22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year?

HUMAN TRAFFIC EVERYWHERE. When you’re buying gifts. When you’re choosing gifts. And on Christmas eve if you’re suicidal enough to go out to get groped.

23. Favorite ornament theme or color?

I think blue and silver is the prettiest combination for Christmas ever. :)

24. Favorite for Christmas dinner?

Stuffed turkey with loads of gravy. :)

25. What do you want for Christmas this year?

WORLD PEACE. HAHA. I would like to spend it contentedly with the ones I love without having to worry about anything else.
