Office is closed for Year End! Yippie....



Office Closed for Year End Holidays!

Is your office closed for the year end holidays?  Mine is! Since about a decade back, I had always have the priviledge of working in an office where this time of the year, the office is closed!  Though I remembered there were years where we need to take leave for this (as in compulsory to take leave), this is certainly a most welcomed break!  This is a real time to rest, take a break, rejuvenate and heading back to the office in the new year, all energetic and full of drive. 

Personally, I love going on holidays.  This said, to avoid the crowd, I am perfectly fine with staying in town!  There are tons of actitivities which I can do.  Just a matter of planning for it.  I will already be happy to spend some time with my son at the bookshop and head for a good meal afterwhich.  And I don't mind doing this day in day out for couple of days.  Totally relaxing :)

So what do I like to do during year end holidays?  Here's some suggestions on what you can do too!

1) Take a holiday out of town! Visit some exotic places and immerse in their culture for a week or so
2) Take a driving holiday to Malaysia.  Plan for a fruit garden trip; go garden hoping and savouring the many different fruits that topical Malaysia have to offer
3) Take a yoga retreat holiday in renowned Thailand or explore further to India.
4) Take short break in 1 of the newly opened resorts in Sentosa.  Check out the newly opened resorts world hotels. Head to the beach for a good tan in the day followed by a relaxing dinner by the beach or inside the resort inside.  Take the relatively new, revamped tram rides around the island, hop on and off to visit the places of interes.  Otherwise, take a leisure walk around your hotel vacinity and simply relax...
5) Catch up with friends over coffee/tea or head to one of the many Hi-Tea buffets Singapore had to offer and engage in a day of catching uo, chit chatting and updating
6) Head for long relaxing body message inclusive of scrubs and baths. 
7) Pamper your nails.  Book an appoint for a manicure and pedicure
8) Hang out with your kids - anywhere they fancy! east coast park? gogobambini? bigsplash? universal studio? bookshops? followed by a nice happy meal? yummy!
9) Exercise day! Yes, work it out.  A gym session followed by a swim?  or gather some friends for wind surfing or blading?  Or go for a run in the park?
10) Immerse in your hobby!  Be in bookscraping, blogging, tennis or what have you... plan to totally immerse in your hobby for the day!
