Life's greatest blessing.



"Other things may change us, but we start and end with family"

Chopsticks.

A peanut which was on its way to my mouth.
Still learning how to use a pair of chopsticks correctly. Haha
Well, better late than never right? XD

Pau Project: {miscellaneous}

Hey readers, this is just an update on my pau project! haha 
It has been progressing pretty well these two months XD 

1. Bao Today (Marina square,Singapore)
A place that I have always been wanting to go badly!
IT WAS LITERALLY PAU HEAVEN, I'M TELLING YOU.
My favorite - '王朝芝麻包' (Bao Today's Black sesame pau) 
The warm roasted sesame paste, oh so divine! 5/5

'金碧流沙包' (Steamed Creamy Custard pau)
When the custard filling ooze out into your mouth..! 4.5/5 

'半个包' (1/2 Assorted meat pau)! 4/5

'包黑子' (Sesame skin pork pau). 3.75/5

'鹿鼎记包' (Deer meat pau)
DEER!? 3.5/5

小笼包! 3.5/5


'可可奶油包' (Coco sweet corn pau)
奶油=sweet corn? 3.5/5

'鸡窝包'!
This was the reason why I came to this restaurant.
But unfortunately, it let me down.
Too dry, and it didn't have much taste. 2.75/5

(out of pau project topic)
They served their drinks with mugs! aah, so homey.
My dad got himself a 'Papa's mug'! haha
and their Milo-C kosong was one of the best I've tried! -thumbs up-

Others: 
Sweet potato man tou, simple yet yummy!

Dilemma.

'Should I join TDS ballet competition this year? '


That was the question that had driven me crazy for the past few weeks!
(I really should start to be more decisive. haha
pity those people whom I always bug for opinions, like my sister :P)

Now, dilemma has finally been solved. 
I am not joining!
I certainly hope that I've made the right decision. 

Whole walnut !

Interesting looking whole walnut o.o

No wonder they say walnut is a brain-food,
Walnuts do look like brains! haha XD

A little surprise from my mummy!

11.00pm. 
I was in my room starring at the rectangular screen, dancing my fingers on the keyboard when my mum knocked the door. She walked in.
Without a second thought, my fingers stopped dancing and started to crawl reluctantly towards the mouse to switch off the computer. I was expecting her to say 'Jean, 11pm already! Tomorrow you got school, time to go to sleep!' at any second, but to my surprise, she didn't!
What astonished me even more was when she passed me a cuboid-shaped present. 
'New year gift, dear!', she said while showing off her big smile. 
0.0 << I stoned for a moment and thanked her joyfully.


Let's see what's inside!
A crocodile watch O.O 

Pretty? hehe. I think it is. :)
But... somehow it gives me a very mature, gentle, womanish feeling,
which I don't think it goes quite well with the very casual me. haha

But again, me still likey. :D
Thanks mummy! 


Hmm, I feel weird.
2 days ago my dad bought us a pair of camel active shoes, 
and yesterday my mum gave me a crocodile watch as a new year gift? 
(I don't remember receiving any new year gift before o.o haha)

Tell me!! what's your motive mummy daddy??! Haha 
XD
Anyway, thank you again for everything mum and dad!

Back to school,again.

Yes, its that time of year again. Back to school time. 
(1 1/2 months of holiday had just passed like that, can you actually believe it?! 
Someone must have been secretly fast forwarding my tape of life!)

This year would be my final year of high school.
Final year to wear school uniform to school.
Final year to stand under the hot sun, listening to the discipline teachers' long nags.
Final year of being together with my high school buddy-buddies. 

Aaah. Thinking about it makes me feel sick!
Piggy will missh you!
 t.t
How I wish that I can get back to form 4 again, when there's no need to be stressed about SPM (there was, but just a littleand when you have all the time you want in the entire world to spend with your friends, family and computer!

But like what people say, 'If wishes were horses, beggars would ride'. :/ 
Although going back to school has always been kind of a bad thing for most, like me who are still in the midst of holiday mood, its time for us to get our long rusted brains moving!!


#One of my many 2012 new year resolutions - to pay attention in class :P haha


Anyway, happy schooling and all the best!

Chemistry?

TROLOLOL. 
Haha I just can't resist the urge to re-post this here! Too epic! 

This was what my sister wrote on her test paper when she was sitting for her SPM chemistry paper :P


I certainly hope that the invigilators will not wear heavy perfumes when I'M sitting for my chemistry paper.
Don't want to think,  "I smell perfume because the particles of perfume diffuses across..."
XD

*Geniuses' brains.

Mashed potatoes.

I was totally in love with mashed potatoes after trying the one Becky and her mama made! It was heavenly!
So I decided to bake one myself, with my sister of course! :)

Mash, mash, mash!
Tadaaa. 
Mouthwatering creamy mashed potatoes ready to be served!
Aaaah. it was absolutely delicious!
What more, it's very easy to bake :D haha


So try one yourself! 
You can simply get the recipe from foodwishes.com.
Do check out the other recipes and videos there as well,
but let me warn you, THEY ARE TOTALLY FOOD.PORN. 

Daddy, you made my day!


Wheeeee. 
Daddy brought me and my sister to Jusco today and bought us a pair of Camel Active shoes each!

New year, new shoes? 

After that, we went to Starbucks to have our frappucinos (you know who paid for it, hehe).
Since Starbucks is having a 'Double Rewards' promotion where you get 2 stamps for every beverage you purchased, I collected a total of 6 stamps in just a day! XD 
Hohoho. 

Thank you so much daddy! 

Hello 2012.

It seems like counting down to 2011 happened just yesterday,
but in reality one whole year had came and gone.

On top of that, my beloved sister will be going to Australia to study t.t ohmaigod. I'm on my own now!! -sobs- 

BUT, I will survive!

Of course, there are also many things that I'm looking forward to this year :)
- To drive!
- New house?
- Olympic 2012!
- After SPM!
- Adventurous trip to Australia with my sister this year end?



Anyway, happy new year everyone!
May this year be filled with joy and laughter. :D
