i hope thats all there is for now.. din miss out anything.. XD

so its father's day today.. not rather significant apart from the fact that i actually attempted to make a rather successful oreo cheesecake last nite despite the various hiccups.. XD


1) forgot to buy whipped cream
2) poured sugar into container but forgot to take the spoon out first so now the spoon is buried rite at the bottom of the container

that was even before i started baking but i went down to buy the whipped cream and SP later on so that was fine.. then i started.

3) mum said to whisk using hand so yeah i tried to do that.. but cmon i was making a sponge cake.. how airy can the mixture be with hand?!?!!? so yeah the cake was yummy but heavy. who cares.
4) supposed to whisk whipped cream till creamy.. hahahha cos its originally liquid like milk.. tried whisking by HAND. oh god. luckily mum came back in time to find the machine.
5) tot thats the end? nope.. i overwhisked. >.< became watery again though i had some 'cream' left so like heck la just use.. HAHAHAHAH!!
6) unfortunately, it wasnt the end of the whipped cream episode! while i was trying to dish out the whipped cream in my anger.. i accidentally spilled the liquid cream thingie into the cheese as well as onto the table! so worried that it wouldnt set with all that extra liquid. luckily it did.
7) beat cream cheese with a paddle till creamy. hmm mine was creamy. it was kinda lumpy. hahah but it kinda sorted itself out when i added the gelatine and egg yolk mixture.. still lumpy but who can taste it unless you really go feel the texture when you eat.. ;)

so up till now its alr bout 10pm.. then i finished up the cake and popped it into the fridge. oh yes the sponge cake was the base. heheh. had the cake for breakfast. quite nice. hehe next time try something else. and USE THE MACHINE!

so that was yest nite.. went to BTNR with ruth in the morning.. the NP ppl would make it so we walked around, played at the playground, climbed up the steep hill then headed downtown. went to eat carls jnr for the first time [for me la! i know i know..] then saw the spon-gebob roadshow at PS. OMG SPON-GEBOB WAS CHINESE!! and i tot having an an-gmo one was bad enough.. hahaha! ruth took a pic so we shall see!

went down to z-ouk G-E ra-id party.. cosp-layers were really cool and pretty.. btw ruth i think they prob work for F-HM.. hahahaha!! took some pics with us playing with the sword.. nicenice! upload k? :) after that we redeem our free coke and almost died drinking it. not from poisoning la but rather from bloatedness. went back after that. took 5 all the way home while ruth got off at scotts. i really really really slept all the way. damn tired la..

went shopping today at OG. din buy anything. wanted to buy shoes again cos the previous pair hurt a little. stupid right foot a little bigger than left foot. :S so yeah its shoe shopping again.. din have my size unfortunately but i did buy a 1gb micro sd for my phone! :) yayness to that!

ok im tired and this is rather long.. sleeping time!

so yes today has come and gone and its almost time to sleep cos of driving tmr morning at 835..

wanted to clean the house but only ended up mopping the 1st floor and washing a fan.. :( hahaha couldnt wake up early cos kinda stayed up last nite talking to pam! omg i think we were [or rather me!] quite high yest.. and morbid as well..

bananas. popped rice. goreng green beans. death. climbing mountains. dying. motivation.

that was just a random selection of what we talking about. random eh? :P

so yes tmr its gonna be driving.. then i guess i shall wash another fan.. attempt to download photos from my cam if i can rmb.. revamp dad's webbie..

urgent things to do in order of urgency:

1. get feed-back form out to min-is-try
2. send in nt-u forms
3. get my matr-ix no. online and get all those em-ail thingies done

oh yes!! one more thing! finished KH liao! :) yayayayy!

now playing ur ice age.. i dont like the angry creatures! and throwing stones are not fun.. keep pressing wrong buttons!

erm and GE takes damn long to dl! 3gb! omgomgomgomg.. this is madness.... heellpp.. someone dl and burn for me pleeasseeee....

and yes research on palms! :) HHP on sat! then down to zo-uk? yayayayay!

im always feeling high at night and have the impulse to blog but whenever i come to this page i feel sian. maybe cos its too troublesome to have to verbalise/pen down my thoughts instead of just thinking through them? or whenever i come here i suddenly feel like i've nothing much to talk about?

anyway.. its been 2 weeks since i've slacked.. and ive not accomplished much.. apart from trying to complete those driving lessons.. i've just watched more movies on dvd and finally baked muffins! haha was trying to bake something with ingredients i already have at home so i found this rather interesting recipe which i alr wondered if i would taste good.. but since i kinda had the ingredients i just gave it a shot. din turn out too bad. at least it was edible. hehhe! and moist.. just not sweet enough and i think there was just too much cheese.

ok so wad did i bake?

apple cheddar muffins. savoury and sweet. erm supposed to be. guess it turned out savoury but not sweet. hehehe!

so the next time im gonna make sth like this.. i think im gonna make apple cinnamon muffins/bread if possible.. though i think bread would be more interesting.. hehehe! cos if im gonna first stew/caramalise the apples with cinnamon i think bread would be more feasible..

supposed to try making strawberry marshmallow cake tmr but then if driving at 1245 so i wouldn be in time for it.. prob wednesday? but i think i MIGHT go back to rg on wed to finish marking those projects.. so now left with asking lbt if he's free on that day.. ok just msged him so i'll see wads his reply.

so if we're going to HK let's go after the 6th! cos my driving test is on the 6th so i can only go after that.. :) i realised how hard it is to organise a BIG group of people cos no one can confirm. guess someone shall have to take charge of this event.. hehehe! guess for now if jessie's gg, the two of us will be the free-est.. let's head to HK!

*edit: ok he's not free and so i shall just go back and mark it all by myself.. faster and more efficient! YAY! :)

brian nguyen u are so gonna keep wad i told you to yourself!!

actually wads the big deal.. :P might as well say it myself so that it wouldnt seem like an enormous issue.. heheh!

sooo here it goes.

i think im gg to ocs din-ner. so weird rite? must be wondering with whom.

ja-son yeo.

my minnie mouse! :)

so yeah mickey and minnie would be gg for dinner tgt! hahahahhahaha!

i dont understand why is it a must to bring a girl along? and sisters arent allowed but cousins are rite? not that they will check..

i bet i'll see loads of ppl i know.. all the gfs of those rj ppl.. guess its gonna be a 'reunion' dinner.. hopefully wouldnt see ppl i dont wanna see.. hahahah!

well shall just wait for him to find out more so i shall just wait and see..

well so im sick. didnt start off as normal as it would. hmm.

wad normally happens is this.

1) throat hurts
2) cough
3) runny nose

wad happened this time.

1) body ache
2) fever [at nite only mind you]
3) no appetite
4) dehydrated [a little]
5) throat hurts

if you look at points 1-4, its really like dengue just that it didnt feel like before!

hahahah and now my throat REALLY REALLY hurts. still no appetite but i guess its getting better..

so what have i been up to? sleep sleep and more sleep. haha wad a life.

went out on sat with tyg to aussie fair and library. saw g-oh LK at library and mar-yann as well as ja-son wo-ng too.. hahah! btw ja-son is gg to Duke to do econs under PU-B sship! smartypants.. hahaha! so yeahh sat morn/afternoon was spent like that.

and wads new. tyg was late as usual. this time round, almost 45 min late. cos he overslept. RITE. though i alr wanted to bet with him the day b4 when we were on the phone. HAHAHAH.

sunday was erm starting to fall sick alr so i didnt do much apart from visiting my greatgranny at cgh and then falling asleep rite after that.

monday was just movie marathon in my dad's office. watched taxi, a cinderella's story and something else. argh my memory! :S

went for driving today after almost 5 mth!! haha im so glad im still not as rusty as i tot i would be! :) so yeah i have technically covered all that i need to cover for now. left with the reviews and stuff. hehe!

ok so how do you do parallel parking? this is more for my info than for you to understand. :P

1) position car where curb is almost 1/3 - 1/2 of the bonnet
2) slowly reverse [look out for cars sharing the course!] until the pole in the outer front corner aka pole A touches the third demister line from the top. FULL LOCK LEFT.
3) continue reversing until the base of the back inner pole almost appears in the right mirror and then STRAIGHTEN WHEELS.
4) reverse summore until pole A clears the left mirror and is slowly aligned with the first dot on the wiper. :) the dots depend on the allowance required by the distance from the mirror. use the BIG hole in the wiper if pole is really close to mirror. FULL LOCK RIGHT
5) reverse until u see 1.5 black markers.
6) move forward and adjust the car, making sure its in the middle of the lot and IN the lots by looking at pole B. pole B shouldnt be seen outside the car from the left mirror.


YAY. now we're in the lot. lets get out.


1) inch forward until you see only 3 black markers.
2) put to reverse and FULL LOCK LEFT until you see 1.5 black markers.
3) signal right and then look out for traffic!
4) slowly inch forward and FULL LOCK RIGHT quickly!
5) clear front poles then return and move off.


whee~!

thats parallel parking for you.

PS. if you noticed, not all parallel parking lots are on the left. so wad do you do if they are on the right? apparently, you just do the reverese. HMM. thats the answer i got when i asked. really?

:)

i think. at least for tcher's day if i can make it. HEE!

today was really fun! love you guys! thanx for almost killing me btw. HAHAH!

so i had my last lesson with 305 and 206. too bad i couldnt play with 206 like i wanted to as i had to finish up the blasted ws. but 305's lesson. wait wad lesson? hahah! had a mini class party then we took pics but my phone lags so those photos were blur though the ones i took with 206 were clear!

tmr's the last lesson with 303. once again, wad lesson?!

lbt is coming tmr morn so i'll have to tell him wad to expect though seriously i dont think there's much cos i kinda finished up everything that needs to be done this term. :)

dessie poon is mad i tell u! aiyoh tmr she's gonna get it from me la! hahaha! though im kinda overreacting cos it was so awkward! 0.o crazy! haha but still i love her all the same! rock on girl!

great its 1215. really its time to sleep! long day tmr! set up for open hse! whee~! earned a lot this week with all the staying back!

PS. Pirates opened today! still rmb watching the previous one with tyg after bio s. :) so nice of him to stay back and wait for me to end! rmb leaving halfway through cos really had to go or else we will miss the show! man its been less than 1 yr and the new show is out!!! haha 206 asked me to watch with them!

PSS. some of the 305 ppl asked me to go kbox with them.

PSSS. we shall go ice skating next friday! :)

these two days have been painful. so will tmr and the day after and the days up till i get it.

the agony. the disappointment. the despair. everything just came crashing.

ok maybe it isnt that serious. i dunno. its kinda hard to put it down in words but those whom i've moped to will definitely understand. just wanna say thanx for being there and trying to make me feel better.

didnt think i would cry. but i really just broke down after i received beat-rice's sms. the ecstacy and the euphoria came through the msg. suddenly i felt like i was alone in this horrible world.

luckily tyg was online yest. thanx for trying to cheer me up. u made me feel myself again. u gave me the confidence to do my best once more. even though you can be a pain sometimes but i think u're still rather special. i think i made you feel rather helpless today with my msgs. but i cant help it. thoughts just ran wild once more. i just felt like at least there was someone who was kinda in the same boat.

and ruth! thanx for trying to comfort me today! yeah though i said that i dont really care but i guess i kinda lied. i do care bout it but really. come wad may. :) so what if the worst happens? i'll just do my best elsewhere! i'll make them regret it! muahahahx!

jem! though i've treated you really bad at times, im really sorry for it. thanx for still being there for me. thanx for believing in me even when i couldnt see the best in myself. thanx for trying your bestest best to make me feel much much much better! things have been rough for us and these two yrs have been quite :S with all the things ive done but ive never regretted knowing you. really. :)

brian! yeahh the classmate i speak to the most online. thanx for everything! the nonsense, the moping, the complaining, the gossips etc. yeah. go be ur teacher and excel k! :)

guess if i leave sg, i'll miss all of you. i'll miss the friends, the good friends, the best friends, the family [though i cant connect], the relatives [some la]. but then i'll be a girl on a mission. a girl soldiering on in pursuit of my goal. rite now im still fighting my own wars. one with my emotions, the other with mum. wth. she aint helping me. though i understand her anxiety but shouldnt she understand me too?

i dont wanna stay at home tmr. i dont want to be disturbed. leave me alone. i just want to go out with someone who will just remain quiet/do their own things and just be there. while i mark my PTs. great. wonder who will be so nice. hah. wait long long.

heck la. im prepared for the worst in everything.

and its only 1 more week of work. not sure how i'll feel on friday.

haiz. i wonder if i did the right thing in telling them if they passed or failed.

some were relieved. some were disappointed. but i felt quite horrible after that.

especially when those who held hopes of passing were told they failed.

but like what kenneth was saying. he wished them to get what they deserved.

thinking back, i guess this test really gave them the marks they deserved for the effort they put in. really.

its like those students who put in the extra effort to understand and clarify did well while those who slacked around, played a fool, slept and din do much to help themselves failed. of cos there are a few who shud have passed but failed but it might have been due to carelessness. need to look through the papers to verify this.

maybe this test can act as a wake up call. its quite true i guess. when u realise that the effort you're putting in really isnt enough to even guarantee you a pass, its time u wake up from that little dream of yours. rgs doesnt guarantee you a safe spot in rjc. the teachers can recommend against you going.

but seriously im quite proud of some students. :) u people really make my day. makes me feel like the effort i put in is worth it. i know some people are like hoping that i'll leave asap [har! me too! no more stress!] because they think that the new teacher would be better. maybe. he's better qualified but hopefully u can connect with him. i cant. sry. at least not at this moment/today when i saw him again.

so yeah tmr we'll see tears. both of joy and happiness. guess i'll just sit there and take it all in and feel sorry for those who tried but didnt make it. tried but tried too late. but just rmb that if you try, you will make it someday. some people take the express train while others walk but sooner or later u'll all reach the same destination. some people take detours and take even longer but yeah u'll make it. as long as u dont fall asleep along the way. if not u'll never make it there.

rmb back in rgs. i was never that bright kid. kinda slacked my life away doing nth apart from sleeping in class. guess i paid my price for it. but i rmb trying really hard to do well for physics b4 Os. mugged my ass off for it and got a decent grade i think. nv had luck with physics. went to jc and took physics AGAIN. -groans- struggled like mad after first three months. last in class. climbed my way up painfully. there were days when i felt like giving up but mr chow's understanding and care [though not ur usual type] made me perservere on. there were teachers that i didnt really like but their indifference to me made me want to prove to them more.

i think studying requires motivation. not motivation from rewards cos it wears off after a while. it comes from within. the want to prove your worth. the need to reassure yourself. the exhilaration when you achieve your goals. the pride that consumes you. its this self-motivation that will go a long way.

when u feel weary and tired and feel as if this is going nowhere. take a break. close your eyes and imagine yourself achieving success. the sounds. the sights. the action. make it as realistic as possible and relive it everytime you feel down. this is the key to success.
