MERRY CHRISTMAS

🎶Last christmas I gave you my heart but the very next day you gave it away🎶

We have been singing Christmas songs for a while so We are super excited for our Christmas dinner!

I think we are all very excited about the gift exchange! 

We had a very nice dinner and after much waiting it was time for the gift exchange! Yeay!

OLeang had a game for us to play, she put a number on all the gifts and we each had to pick a number. After having a gift in front of us, a bowl with a dice was passed around the table and until the 19 of us had rolled the dice we could open the gift.

So this is how it worked... 

Dice had 6 numbers (duh!) and depending on what we got this is what we did:

1- pass gift once to the left

2- pass gift twice to the right

3- pass gift three times to the left

4- pass your gift four times to the right

5- exchange your gift with the person across from you

6- exchange your gift with anybody you want

After much gift passing we finally were able to open them!

We went one by one to see what everybody got! The gift wrapping was phenomenal! We had one gift wrapped in a KFC chicken nugget box, another one inside a spicy shrimp chips package, toilet paper, newspaper, extreme masking tape, magazines, and even a double wrapped with red and green condoms (gross!)

I thought very hard what to get that would be suitable for a boy or a girl, after much thought I decided to put together a survival kit:

"Vietnam survival kit"

VIETNAMESE HAT: To protect you from the sun or keep you dry on the rain

FACE MASK: To protect you from the fumes and keep your lungs healthy

PHO BOWL: Because every Vietnamese loves pho

CHOPSTICKS: No explanation needed

SPOON: Because slurping pho is unacceptable

INCENSE: For all that praying in hundred thousand temples in Vietnam

Some of the other gifts were: beers.. TONS of beers, tiger balm, cards, a kite, hats, a rubber chicken!!! Coasters, and even a sleeping sheet for all those dirty night trains!!!

After so much fun....  group picture :-)
