Ever since I was a little child, I have always looked forward to Christmas.

At first it was all about the wonderful presents that Santa left under the tree, but as I grew older, I realized the holiday season is a great time to catch up with family and old friends.

This year, that is exactly what I promised myself to do.

I planned my social calendar between the last two weeks of December to accommodate each invite, and with a little bit of juggling here and there, I was so excited at being able to fit everyone in.

Facebook Reunions…. Friend Get Togethers….. Family Parties….. It definitely has been a whirlwind of soirees and all the holiday merriment has gone to all the places it shouldn’t, like my *thighs and hips*. I know I’ve given my good ol’ digestive system a shock!

Even the *munchie monster* has decided to join in with the festivities since I’ve had a lot of free time lately to contemplate on other things aside from blogging because of my server outages. Being stuck at home with nothing else to do aside from brood over how I can extract a slow and painful death to my old hosting company, snacking was fast becoming a favourite past time.

And that sexy, slinky silver dress that I bought for New Year’s Eve? Well, I can almost hear it screech at me *I hope you are not planning to wear me with that!* every single time I open the closet.

How am I going to survive the next four days?
