1826

i find it so difficult to rest  my fingers on the keyboard to do some updates on my recent life.

in less than 1 hour's time will come the day that marks the 5th Anniversary of leewang and i! we've been seeing each other for 5 years! oh gosh that ain't really easy i'd say. there are times when we were unhappy with each other for some disagreements or felt sad over some minor issues... however having been through all these we are still able to hold on to each other for anything that have yet to come. we know we have found the right one for ourselves, for the future. we found each other.

we wouldn't have come so far without the trust for each other, and of course, love. we know what is love and prove that with actions. it all thanks to the belief that every single effort will be paid off :)

i'm so dumb in words that i could barely explain how fortunate i think i am. i'm not even sure why i deserved such a good man and good life. thanks for everything. i'm so blessed :)




i am in love with a great guy and i know i will always be.


i love you.

enjoy?

holiday started last wednesday ohh so i have been in holiday for one week! but i havent done anything meaningful yet other than sleeping. i slept a lot for the past few days, at least 12 hours i guess? perhaps my brain wanted compensation for not being able to have good rest for the past 1 year -_-

leewang is currently at Iran now, with me knowing nothing about that country. i have no idea how the situation there is now. i was only told that he stays in a factory hostel, shares a room with one of his colleague. he gave a short call last night to assure me that he had reached there safely. i didn't carry a big hope that there will be wireless facility at that rural area where he's staying. i haven't got a single news from him today yet.awwww miss him so much :(

i've had enough rest i don't wanna stay at home all day long anymore : / seriously i need somebody to accompany me for shopping/chatting/hanging around/doing whatever-it-is but seems that i failed to find one. :( it's not that fun being ridiculously free when people around you is so busy like nobody's business. sigh.... that's life.

many friends of my batch or even some of my juniors have already gotten their degree yet i'm still having one more year to go. even my dear leewang has official become a working adult. Being the only student among a group of working adult makes me feel.....not right. it isn't a big deal i'm just scared that sooner or layer we may lose the common topic. ok i guess i'm being over-pessimistic. things aren't going to turn into such undesirable way no no no no nO NO!

hmmm i guess that's all for now. what i'm having in mind at the moment is to receive a call from leewang and chat my lungs out with him! that's a bit impossible due to the RM1/min call rate -_- omg omg omg leewang just called! he worked from 8am to 7pm+ and will need to work on sat n sun as well. WTH what kind of law is that??!!! so his job is actually as a translator =.= oh so poor thing :'( he's gonna call me again later before i go to bed. wooohoooo his call has made my day 

can't wait to see him............8 days later -_-

fly away from here

i remember that i mentioned before, i really like a phrase that says 'fly away from here, to where you are'. this phrase is simply sweet and heartwarming isn't it? leewang is gonna fly away today but not to where i am :'(

his company sends him to Iran, kind of like a learning trip since he's not in-charge of any thing. he's now in Changi airport while i'm sitting at home. i cant send him off coz i can already predict i will cry like a little kid who drops ice-cream on the floor -_- for the first time after 2 years we wont be seeing each other for so many days. although it's only 10days but whenever he's going overseas i'll feel sad T.T

wish him have a safe flight. gonna miss him much

oh dear i nvr realized i havent been blogging for the past two months =.= that's really ridiculous LOL

i'm bored of the old blog design so i got it changed into a new one! awww like this template so much. it's full of ♥ ♥ ♥  it simply reflects my current situation. initially i wanted a very simple template that allows comments or easy-customization but i failed to find a nice one : / in the end i googled and found this! it still requires some html editing but it's much easier so here it is ^.^

had my last paper on monday but my holiday only officially started on Wednesday due to a lab report submission. feel so relax after everything has been completed! havent been in this relax state for the past 1 year. how pathetic... :'( aniway i'm in holiday now shall not keep thinking about the past misery -_-

i'm kinda lost now. i've got soooooooooooooooooooooooo much things to blog about i have no idea where to start from -_- perhaps i should split them into different entries and write in more detail :)

yoooohooo it's friday! my dear leewang is coming back tonight if possible i may have a meetup with him. miss him so much. friday is such a wonderful day i love it so much ♥ 

ok i think that's all for this entry. going shopping with mama later wow wow wat a happy day :D

good sunday

perhaps i ought to give reason for being MIA for the whole 3 weeks?
was buried in the world of report n assignment n presentation, working non-stop night and day and now i finally got the chance to take a breath of the fresh air! i've forgotten the last time i felt so stressed out :( nonetheless, everything's over and i'm left with only exam to deal with! opps actually there's still one more assignment that will due on 21st May but i've yet to start working on it ._. cant be bothered now. i intend to settle it after i'm done with exam! exam has been pre-scheduled on 13th May. WHY COULDNT THEY MAKE IT AFTER MY BIRTHDAY T.T

woke up at 6.30am+ and went for exercise with leewang today! walked+ran for like 1 hour and both of us were so so so so SO tired. couldnt help but bring myself to accept the fact that we are getting older =.= but i loved the  feeling of sweating after exercising. it made me feel healthier ;) ok i must keep it up! hopefully i manage to wake up this early every sunday O.o

after stopped blogging for quite some times it seems like.....i'm so dumb at doing it now! couldnt really come out with something that is nice to read : /

have been trying to upload photos to fb even before i started this entry but it failed for N times n it really annoyed me :( eh but finally it just succeeded!

due to the assignment i spent most of my time in jb facing my laptop for the past few weeks..... not being able to spend more time with my parents made me so sad... but i have been set free from assignment now! so today i went for breakfast with papa mama, afterwhich we gaigai-ed at jusco and each of us managed to brought something home :D we dont have to do anything to please our parents. being by their side is the best gift they would ever request for.

ohhhh it's mama day again!
Happy Mother's Day and mama i love you ♥ ♥ ♥

HAPPY!!!!!

aw my stomach is fullllll of rice now as i've just inserted 6 unagi sushi and 4 salmon belly sushi into it -_- i'm sooooooooooo happy today i did not want to restrict myself to choose my dinner based on my budget. n i guess i shall claim the $$$$ spent for dinner from somebody. you know who you are! HIAK HIAK HIAK too bad i couldn't share the food here but photos! get ready tissue if you may be drooling :D







should have bought from sushi tei if i have realized earlier i can claim the $$$$ :p 
i'd say these were nice, considering the amount of money i had paid for them :)


daiso is a devil place. ppl with emptying wallet please refrain yourself from going in ok. DAISO MADE ME BROKE!!!!! stepped into tat place today and bought something again =.= but i spent $4 only lar so it's still not that terrible lol bought something really nice that i think anyone who brings small-sized umbrella should buy one! it was.......

THIS!



these are vinyl bags. i bought them for my umbrella!
i can keep the wetted umbrella in straight away after use without having to fold them properly. those little bag that comes with the umbrella is well-fitted that it requires you to fold up the umbrella properly or you wont be able to slot it in, but this bag is big enough for my umbrella i dont have to fold it nicely in order to keep it.
SO nice!
this vinyl bag is also water proof so the wetted umbrella in it wont bring disaster to anything inside my bag. most importantly it has cute graphical desigh LOL apparently i'll be taking the pink one and i'm gonna benefit somebody by giving him the blue one!

popped by Watson's and found something cool - Cure Natural Aqua Gel
it's a gel that can removed the dead skin. it has a tester there so i just pumped a small amount and applied on the skin around my finger nail.
IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it was gel-like but soon after it was in contact with the skin and with slight rubbing it turned into liquid and a while later the dead skin really came off!!!!! i could tell 'coz the skin around my finger nail did become smoother!!!! they were very kind that they provided sample too! i got it from the counter and gonna try out later!

the brochure attached with the samples claims that 'One is sold every 20 seconds!' & 'For the past seven years, many leading Japanese magazines have featured Cure for its popularity, not a penny has been spent on advertisement!' i've no idea whether these are true but the result was rather impressive and i was so tempted to get one!! 
retails at $42/250g

this is the sample and i'm gonna try it on my face later ;)

just googled for this product and found out..... IT RECEIVED EXTREMELY GOOD FEEDBACKS EVERYWHERE FROM EVERYONE WHO HAVE TRIED!!!!!!

oh gosh the temptation is rising up!!! i hope i manage to resist it lol but i guess i will get it when there's 20% off HOHOHO



that's all for today i guess. the assignments are piling up and i'm getting stressed out : /
time please fly faster k i cant wait for my berdae to come! although it will be 3 days before exam -_-

joyous day

i would have updated my bloggie if i wasn't tired like hell yesterday =.=

slept really early last night but this morning i was nearly late for lesson ._. so you can tell how tired i was yesterday. went to carrefour with classmates to search for product for a food labeling assignment and after like 1 hour++ we finally got found a product that suits best BUT the classrep told us the other groups have got similar products :( the question says we are not allowed to use the same labeling but not similar product wat! our product is soy milk while others groups have chosen HL milk and soy powder. i dont see a valid reason why we can't use the product of our choice ~.~ gonna see the lecturer-in-charge tmr to fight for the product! lol

i've lost tract of when i last shopped in sg. we went to the carrefour at PS so after we had finished the discussion i dropped by Daiso and unexpectedly stayed there for 1 hour -_- unlike the Daiso in jb, Daiso in sg is simply a great place to shop when everything is as cheap as 2 bucks!!!! RM5 sounds rather expensive for most things sold there O.o in the end spent 12 bucks and got......

hmmm i dont noe the name but they are for rice! 
sprinkle them on top for decoration for flavour enhancement

bento box n the belt
somebody's gonna receive a yum yum bento

this is the silicon cups
i intend to use them for side dishes. they're made of silicon so it's washable hence reusable!
save money and the environment ;)

lastly, something that is meant for the 56th month present
shall not expose it now 

reached home rather late today. intend to do revision but seems that i'm short of time if i'm to sleep early today. perhaps just flip through the notes and try to do some recap to reinforce the memory. btw i love the new lady prof who started her first lecture with us today! gosh she's simply cute. she's a Spanish hence it took me some times to get used to her slang but it was still rather comprehensible. she started off with the name list of our class in hand and read out each name one by one. it's always this funny for a Caucasian to pronounce Chinese' name. can you imagine how funny it could be when she's a SPANISH? all of us laughed our lungs out ROFL!!!! even a common Christian name like Esther could have been pronounced in a really funny way LOL. fyi the pronunciation of  Esther is similar to 'Esteh' -_-

fi fi fi fi finally i got the grades of the rest of the 2 modules today! i was worried to death yesterday coz the prof said there was one failure, who will need to resit for the exam :( luckily i manged to pass! got B- for it and an unexpected A- for the other module. hohoho i was lucky. seriously coz there are people who worked 10000% harder than i did had scored poorer results which i have no idea W.H.Y -_-  i'm SO blessed

tomorrow is Wednesday, halfway to weekend! in less than 3 days' time i'll be meeting leewang again! miss him so much :(
oh no i'm feeling sleepy already : / gotta stop here and get back to my lecture notes!

♥ weekend

Saturday is always the day that i look forward to the most throughout the entire week. no disturbance from the noisy alarm clock no assignment but only the loved one and a good day.


if only i could own a calender that has only SATURDAY & SUNDAY :(

yesterday leewang reached my place at abt 9am, trying to wake me up like what he used to be doing every Sat morning. but i went to bed pretty late on Fri night i had difficulty getting my eyes open '_' i din even have the strength to response to the every single word he had spoken to me -_- in the end he gave up to join me and both of us slept until the clock nearly hit 12pm LOL ^.^v

in the noon time the we headed to the famous 成记 chicken rice for lunch and something unpleasant had took place. when my chicken was served i saw a tiny bug on it!!!! the blacky bug caught my attention the moment it was placed in front of me and i just unconsciously shouted out 'EH WAT'S THAT!!!' i was more than 100000000000% sure it was a living thing coz it was moving!!!!!!! but when the aunty who served the rice tried to take a close look it stopped moving. SPEECHLESS =.= the aunty must be long-sighted she said 'it's not bug lar maybe it's.....' i couldn't stand it and interrupted 'BUT IT WAS MOVING!!!!' in the end ofcoz the aunty replaced one for me but in a very reluctant manner. he told the boss what had happened n guess wat? the boss came to tell me 'it's not bug lar how is it possible to have bug in it?' WTH they shud take a magnifying glass to check and be convinced that IT WAS A LIVING CREATURE!!!!!!!!! i wasn't making any trouble but a innocent customer who was extremely unfortunate to get a plate of chicken rice with bug as a dish decoration ._. shud have taken the shot to keep it as evidence :( during the meal i was also trying very hard to convince myself that they did change a new portion of chicken rather than had the bug removed then returned it back to me O.o

OH YA! how could i forget about this. 

WE MADE MATCHA ICE-CREAM AGAIN!!! :D 

with some changes in working steps


totally given up the idea of handmake -.-
replaced with an antique-like hand mixer

this time round we even used a sieve to have all the bubbles removed in order to give it a more even and smooth surface.

ok i was TOTALLY CONVINCED that handmake is simply a waste of time : x
the machine-made one was SO DIFFERENT!
so now i fully understood what the packaging meant by saying 'thicken' -_-
and the volume was also much greater compared to the one we made last time



frozen!


the texture was much, much, much better than last time!
no more double-layers and it tasted the same at every point of the ice-cream!
but no matter how good it was the texture was still pretty far away from the smooth texture found in the commercial ice-cream -_-
taste-wise i'd say it was awesome. 
it tastes almost 99% the same as Starbucks Green Tea Cream Frappuccino!!!
by saying this i shud have given you the idea of how heavenly the taste is :D

apart from this there was nth else special. leewang was busy doing revision for the exam so we stayed at home for the rest of the time. i killed the time by watching my favourite drama and i really enjoyed this kind of life u see. no worries of unfinished assignment or report or upcoming presentation or test or exam. what i need to do is simply do-all-i-want :D but i fell asleep half way through the drama and woke up to find leewang lying next to me. =.= this lazy pig :p woken up by the living-clock-leewang early in the morning today for the sake of breakfast with his family : /  after tat he sent me home and tat ended our long weekend date.  

was surfing net for the entire afternoon before going for sports-shoe-hunting with mama. had no idea since when my mama had became so passionate in exercising! she goes for jogging everyday now but she's lack of a proper shoes. without much effort we got the right shoes at kinda acceptable price :D


it's in the very classic running shoes design and ultra comfy!!!!!! really lightweight that doesnt add any burden to your feet at all! retails at RM229 but sale is on so we got it at RM199. definitely worth every single cent! speaking of adidas... mom got her first pair of adidas at the age of 52 but i got mine like few years ago. my point is that i'm a totally fortunate child ain't i? mama n papa are more than willing to spend every single cent to get us what we wanted but they themselves lead a really thrifty life to save up... it made me feel so guilty and sad for being so insensible in spending but... somehow it was just so difficult to resist : / okok i'll really spend more efforts in my financial planning ok!!

on a site note, i added the nuffnang xchange to my blog quite some times ago. today is the first time i saw my own bloggie in it! 

TADAH!


i'm not sure if it's common to see your own blog in it so i just printed the screen to save a record :D how silly :p


monday is coming in less than 30 minutes' time. leewang's having his first paper tmr and afterwhich he will be staying in jb for the rest of the time before his next paper on next Monday. feel so lonely without him in sg :( it's kinda.... psychologically lonely. can u understand? :'( 

the last paper has ended and i've got a new timetable for the new module. hmm it's not that terrible but presume it wont be as relax as the last one. everything will start all over again and i shall work hard from now on!

mission S.P

when i reached home today i was in half-dead state. the bloody rain brought about heave traffic everywhere and i took 1 hour longer than usual to travel back from checkpoint. : /
althought it brought troubles to us while being on the road but i guess somebody must have been praying very hard that it comes just in time to send the crazily incredibly ridiculously ultra-mad-ly BURNING HOT WEATHER away!
ok i'm not interested in weather so go back to my blog! yeah i mentioned in previous post i had an adventure in leewang's garden yesterday. here comes the photo! 


NO COMMENT ON ME IS ALLOWED OK! 
place ur focus on the sweet potato potato potatototototo instead!


mission S.P

MISSION SWEET POTATO THAT IS!!!

here you go!
originally my facial expression wasn't like this. leewang insisted a shot with NORMAL EXPRESSION -_-
so not-interesting O.o hehehehe


digging! with full strength! to be exact, mentally full-strength LOL

WOW WOW discovered the first sweet potato!!

SWEET POTATO FRESH IN SOIL!!!!!!
i know i sound sua gu -_-

too weak to get the whole thing out =.=
sought help from leewang
eyesight testing: spot the sweet potato!

woooooohoooooo almost out!
we were so disappointed when we got it out. 
IT WAS SO SMALL!!!!!
so unusually small sweet potato -_-
we actually expected it to be in the size of normal sweet potatoes that you'll see in the market ._.

this was the second sweet potato!!
discovering something was really exciting!
try it and u'll get wat i'm saying.

the second even-smaller sweet potato -.-"

in the end we had got 3 sweet potatoes altogether
the third one was in a more acceptable size -_-
fyi, the second one was as big as a water chestnut.
visualize the actual yourself using this reference then you should be able to better understand our feeling when we digged the first sweet potato out.

leewang got them washed before keeping
YEAH WE INTENDED TO EAT IT!
it's organic ok! no chemical fertilizer and fresh from ground! :D
well, although we weren't really sure if it was ripen enough for consumption -.-

the true colour of the potato-like sweet potatoes.
despite the fact that they ARE sweet potatoes, i dont see how they can be recognized as sweet potato solely based on appearance O.o



yeap that's all for the out-of-sudden potato mission
it was truely fun i even planned to plant some more plants so i can enjoy the interesting harvesting again! :D
oh shit 1am already. i bet the best solution to get rid of my terrible skin conditions would be turning in by 11pm. i thought i would sleep really early today coz i was tired like hell when i reached home. who knows.......... yeah everything is unpredictable. so treasure every single seconds of your life and live it fullest to leave no regrets. :) 

OH YA! it's saturday! finally once again leewang's gonna come to wake me up early in the morning! it has been 4 months since the last time he reached my house before 10am on Saturday :( his very last internship had ended in the blink of an eye so he's now free again on Saturday morning! wooohooohoooo so so so happy :) but he will be having his exam on Monday so most probably we'll be going nowhere and stay guaiguaily at home for the whole day. but that's not big deal as long as we're together.♥ ♥ ♥

happy exam

WOOOOHOOOOOO EXAM IS OVER!!!!!!

i might sound excited but i'm feeling as if my eye lid weighs 1 ton -_-
it's so unusual of me being this devoted to blogging lately :p

the exam was pretty enjoyable (!!) as i did manage to attempt 5 questions within the time frame. however i still failed to finish all questions in time, gifted away 4 marks :( the questions were unexpectedly easy, with reference from lecture note i was even more confident with my answers. the feeling was simply SO GREAT :D

exam ended at 12.15pm and i rushed back to jb soon after it'd ended. leewang picked me up and we went for bak kut teh as lunch. RM22 gone for 6 small pieces of meat + 3 bowls of rice + 1 bowl of tou pok + 1 canned drink. so expensive lor!!! actually a better alternative has been found but unfortunately the business starts at night : /

after lunch we went down to Cold Storage to complete the Parma Ham Search. apparently such high end food was not found otherwise you'd be seeing the picture being posted here. i saw it in Cold Storage sg, selling at $13.8/pack. each pack contains only 5-6 pieces ................ T.T if it was to be sold here i guess the price would be at least RM25+. who on earth would spend the price of 1 big pizza for 6 thin pieces of ham -_- 

leewang n i did something FUN today :D 
u noe wat, we digged nothing but SWEET POTATOES out of the soil in his garden!!!!!!!! during the dinner we were chatting about the sweet potato leaves 'coz it was one of the dish we were having. leewang's mom mentioned the vege was planted in the garden and after harvested there were sweet potatoes left under the ground. WOW SWEET POTATOES!!!! i was so excited i wanted to dig them out! :D so after the lunch we rushed to the garden and equipped ourselves with a mini cute hoe :D we expected big sweet potatoes to be found but ended with 3 small potato-like sweet potatoes =.= we weren't even sure if they had ripen. but the whole process was sooooooooo fun! gonna post the pic up tomorrow ;)

how i wish tomorrow could be holiday :( 
gotta wake up early again to catch my bus before 7.30am. but the fact tomorrow is friday has never failed to cheer me up a bit despite having to wake up this early.

okie tat's all for today.

battle time

time flies, and it flies even faster during study week -_-
the so-called study started last friday, but something had gone wrong with me so i started studying on Monday : /
now totally regretted starting SO LATE........................


i'm not really nervous nor scared this time 'coz it's OPEN BOOK EXAM!!! WOW the best thing ever :D all engineering paper should allow open book! it's all about formula n formula n, formula, when it comes to engineering paper. in real life working the boss wont test on you how much formula you can remember but how you are capable of applying them on problem solving. there are SO MANY formula there and it's so unreasonable to expect us to remember ALL. although some formula will be provided but it's just not enough. maybe this time round the examiner has finally got a little bit of conscience, realizing it's SO OK to allow open book LOL

engineering topic is not my strength for sure. well, in fact none of the topic is my strength -_- but comparing braincell-killing module like food chemistry with engineering module i guess i'd prefer the latter. i bet my brain capacity is so small and the brain cells are all so lazy that they can take in so much information. that's why i ended up with a C+ for food chem =.=

frankly speaking i dont feel like i'm well-prepared for the exam tmr. hmmm....... maybe the exam questions are simply too unpredictable that only people with really good basic knowledge can handle well. most importantly i don't think i can finish within time :( it's a 3 hours paper and 5 questions are to be completed. 36 mins for each questions...... O.o it was told by senior that past year papers are important and the class rep had got each of us like.... 6 sets?of past year paper. BUT, we dont have the model answer =.= then wat for giving us so many! pls, dont expect us to figure out the correct ans coz it's almost impossible. if we were able to we wouldn't be paying tuition fee as undergrad and received miserable life in return -_-

ok the clock hits 11.26.
i shall be off to bed and wake up early at 6am to make sure i wont be late!
goodluck!

flawless skin

apparently i'm not trying to give lecture on how to obtain flawless skin 'coz i myself dont even have one, leave alone teaching people on how to get one -_- i bet having flawless skin has been a dream of all the girls in this universe, flawless may be slightly extreme hence breakout-less would be the better word.

i was selecting photo for editing out of fun yesterday. when i was browsing thru all photo i couldn't help but feel sad looking at my terrible skin conditions. my skin has always been in the not-too-bad conditions until like 2 months ago. pimples started mushrooming on my face and left me terrifying scars. : / sometime my tears just rolled down uncontrollably when i looked into the mirror. why did my skin turn into this state?!

in the end i realized my skin might be sensitive to mineral oil. i used the Biore oil-based make-up remover almost everyday during my 2.5 months of attachment and the thing is mineral oil contributes to the highest proportion of the remover. also, that was when my skin condition began worsening. most pimples popped out at my chin area and many ppl told me that hormone might be the culprit. i wasn't any stressed out during the attachment hence it should have anything to do with stress. i had no idea how i could regulate my hormone so i just remained being helpless until, now.

i used to be using Avene skincare as they claim that their products are suitable for even sensitive skin. i'm not sure if i have got sensitive skin but this disclaimer had successfully assured me that i shouldnt be getting any breakout during or after using. after awhile i was bored of Avene so i changed my sunblock to Sana. the sunblock was so bad that it lead to formation of acne!!!!!! i realized abt this after i almost finished the whole bottle -_- i finished it not too long ago and i replaced it with La Roche Posay. not too long after i've planted my interest to LRP i found Decleor =.= Decleor was the brand introduced by miss choco and i was convinced that their products are good. but unfortunately the price range is pretty high that i din not think of using their product. there was this day when i was doing necessity shopping I FOUND DECLEOR AT LOWER PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was so happy and started buying their products.

the ingredients of Decleor products are mainly plant-based hence it is should be rather safe i guess? initially the results were satisfactory. but after few days pimples were back in sight AGAIN =.= i was worried to sick and had no a single clue W.H.Y. i know pimples can be brought about by various aspects but i just cant help suspecting the products i used =.=

up to date i havent got any conclusion yet and wat i did to control my pimples were cutting down the number of the skin care product that i used everytime. i was thinking perhaps i introduced too many new products to the skin at a time hence my skin was like intolerable to them. so nowadays i use maybe only 1 product (excluding sunblock) per day and i'll see how it goes. :)

hopefully it will get better as day goes by............. :(

driving force

it's rare sight that i updated my blog twice a day. there's something that i think i just wanna blog about.
exam is just around the corner but i'm still not in the mood to work really hard for it. i was thinking about this last night, why i just do not have the motivation to really work hard and get myself a lil bit of achievements. in the end i drew the conclusion to lack of motivation.

the greatest target of mine in life is to bring my parents travelling around without having them pay a single cent. to achieve this the most important thing is definitely earning alot alot and alot. working adults in this universe know very well that working is not as easy as what we might have imagined all the time. what we had encountered during any attachment or internship were only the very minor part of a real working life. when you become a permanent staff your boss will treat you differently and stress from work will become the part and parcel of life. there's no free lunch in this world right? you don't work very little and get enormous amount of money every month. the salary is always directly proportional to the workload as well as the responsibilities. i do not want to bear heavy responsibility yet i want to earn more. HOW? be a secretary with revealing clothes may help i guess? -_-


i was told to learn to be more flexible when facing problems. but i just can't bring myself to do something that i'm not willing to. life is complicated, filled with complicated people all around and all kinds of complicated situations. it's good to have a firm stand and hold on to the principle. however the real life situation has taught us to be less sincere and FAKE to people around us in order to safeguard ourselves. what a pathetic truth to know. sigh~

hopefully when i wake up tomorrow i'll have had my mind filled with LOADS of motivations O.o



how do i live without u, 5.32pm

ice-cream making!!!

awwwwwww making ice-cream at home is something that i've never, ever thought of. i used to have the perception that it can only be made using some sorts of special equipment and for sure i couldn't afford one.




BUT!!!!!!

i came out with the very special HANDMADE ice-cream with leewang yesterday!!!!!!
let's see how i achieved that :D


ingredients
1 big plastic container, 1 small metal bowl, ice cubes, egg beater, 200ml of milk and 1 packet of matcha ice-cream premix


the premix
bought from cold storage, bugis $4.50

container used
i saw this method from a tv show tat i watched years ago -_-
the ice cubes were used for providing a cold environment to the ice-cream mix
metal bowl used for better heat transfer!

start making!!
the ingredients were simply the premix and the 200ml of milk
pour everything into the bowl and mix with the egg beater
the instruction said mix until thickens and if the electronic mixer were used it would take about 2-3 min
but i guess handmaking would be better coz it seemed that  by doing so there might be less air being introduced into the ice-cream, thus giving finer texture?

done mixing!
insisting for better quality, we hand-mixed the mixture for 26 minutes -.-
i expected it to turn thicker that it wouldnt flow easily but at the end of 26 minutes it still moved very freely -_-
it did turn thicker but apparently not very thick kind
ok after mixing just freeze it in freezer for 3 hours!

ICE-CREAM!!!!!!!!!!!
during the 3 hours i couldnt help but kept opening the freezer to check on how well it had been doing and ended up scolded by leewang n my mom. T.T they warned me not to open the freeze again or the ice-cream might take even longer time to settle. OK LOR so i guai-guaily waited for 3 hours :'(

YUM YUM :D
strickly speaking it wasn't really 100% successful 'coz the texture wasn't totally ice-cream-y
the mixture separated into 2 parts, upper layer was more ice-cream-like whereas the lower layer tasted like frozen matcha drink -_- i could even feel the ice on my toungue!


in overall the taste of the ice-cream was pretty good. the upper layer had the ice-cream texture but tastewise it was rather mild, the lower later tasted better but it wasn't ice-cream afterall. i guess the failure was due to the improper mixing maybe? we've decided to try one more time and this time round we'll use the electronic mixer and see how it goes!
