Mom's Birthday

We celebrated mom's birthday at Sake Room and I was so full stuffed with the dishes!

There was actually a gathering with the olahraga buddies at Autocity's McD, I remembered I told Liyin that it's my mom's birthday celebration that night, and so I couldn't make it to the gathering. And the first respond she gave me was, "your mom's birthday AGAIN?"

Hey, AGAIN?! "I remember it was your mom's birthday not long ago, and now it's again!"

NOT LONG AGO was ONE YEAR ago, how fast time flies!

Scary man, we're getting 21st next year. OMG. 

So old okay!

Back at home my mom got to cut another cake, proudly made and presented by me :) Dad must be jealous I think, wahahhah, because I won't be around on his birthday. 

Superly-homemade-tiramisu-cheesecake!
Making this cake took me 3 hours, and too much unexpectations. Half way whisking the batter, the mixer spoilt! I've to borrow it from my mom's friend. Continue, and before baking, I'm pretty sure there are enough eggs for me in the fridge. I NEVER expect the maid will use up and fried eggs for lunch!  I've to buy eggs from the nearest grocery shop. *!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* So damn frustrated. 

It looks so homemade-ly! Everyone, aunties-uncles, say it's nice. Wooohoo~ :D 

Oh, back to the topic.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! :)

Lame Baker, I'm.

Because I've some egg yolks left the days before after baking the chocolate macarons, I end up finishing the egg yolks on baking bread pudding for breakfast using Kev's recipe. 

I ruined it again, that's why it is not good looking at all :D

And then, this is my matcha macarons. I said that I might not be baking macarons again because the failing probability is damn high for me to bake anything. But I did again, and this time it took super long time for me to finish the whole baking process! I spent my whole afternoon in the kitchen. Sigh. Lame.

At this stage I was so happy because the top layer looks shiny, I thought there's a hope of getting the shiny shell! How I wish the outcome can be as nice as this, or even better, can eat it straight away without baking with this beautiful outlook, because baking slight spoilt my hope again.

Sometimes I memang very celaka, the recipe says 15 to 20mins, but for the first batch, by around 7mins I saw the 'feet' appears and I was jumping for joy, because this is what it supposed to be, shiny shells with feet! I am so dumb and crazy, I don't know what else can be used to describe me, I took it out from the oven at around 12mins. What's more? It wasn't cooked enough and the shiny shells cracked and.. condemned. =="

I took this picture as fast as I could right I took it out from the oven, I was so scared that the shells would crack in few seconds time. Hehehe but they didn't.

I made the green tea butter cream, which was one more failure. There is still a lot left in the fridge now, I have to make something that can be used with the cream. Hmm. 

Anyway, they look so fragile :o The macarons that I see from other sites look so solid but mine were like there's a need of sticking a note saying "Fragile, handle with care." 

I brought some for my bro and people in Sake Room and the last question he asked me before I left was

"Sugar's price drops recently?" :o

So you know why I failed again. 

I realised that no matter how excellent the recipe you give me, and others can make it to perfect, once I'm the baker for the recipe, it never turns out right. :)

Me.. the recipe-ruiner. I can fail any recipe for you! 

Cool not? WAHhahahaha.. :D :D :D

Two days in One

Mengkuang run early in the morning with few fellows. It wasn't a run, a walk to be accurate. More appropriately, chatting more than walking. And for those who know, some shout instead of talk. You know who you're, ruined the peaceful morning at Mengkuang. :D 

Transporter 3 in the afternoon with more peeps because guys objected Twilight. Hmm. 

My ugly looking chocolate macarons. No shells, not shiny and no feet, fail miserably. I wonder will I make it again, I know, practice makes perfect, but this sounds so risky to me. AHHhh.. maybe not anymore. :) I give up easily. Heheheh.

They look terrible. Omg.

A Day With Something

Finally I spent a day doing something meaningful, at least it's meaningful to me. :) I could say this is the first day ever that I'm busy, not to say busy but at least I'm occupied, with something since I'm back. Yes yes I'm so pleased now! 

For the first time I wandered in Qbay mall alone, walking here and there aimlessly. I don't really know what's the feeling of loitering alone in the mall, but it wasn't too bad, probably I will be doing that again in the near future. Wanted to buy some food for Xinyun, Momo and Eric but only Xinyun placed me order. I know I'm so good =D 

I had a lunch at the Paddington House of Pancake with Gee and Pung before heading to PC Fair. 

PC Fair, as usual, was so crowded. Hehehe other than those three that I know they're working there, I met some jit sin people unexpectedly. =) 

 External hard disk 160gb RM169, 250gb RM199, 320gb RM229. If you're not as insane as me, definitely you will buy 250gb or 320gb. So I'm the insane one. ;)

My leg is pain but I'm happy. As long as I'm pleased, it's worthwhile after all. :D

So what's next? Maybe straight n-days for series again, then I'm going to :( for the n-days.

Costume Changed

Finally I did something here. The previous blog template XML code went cacat for few months and I chose to ignore it until now. I swear I did not screw up the code and it collapsed itself. Not my fault :) 

I don't really fancy this template either, I am loyal to the previous template but just maybe it hates me?! If I am kind enough I may spend some time in the near future in changing its costume again but who knows when will it be. Hmm.

I am bored to death.

1 is going to Singapore. 1 is working in PC fair. 1 is busy packing stuffs in KL. 1 is going to Beijing. 1 is going to KL. 

Anyone wanna be in the list? I am way too generous to add more.

Everyone around me seems to be so busy with their life and I am bored to death. How ironic is that. 

These Few Days

I've been back in Penang for 5 days yet I'm not updating anything here. What have I been up to? Nothing, seriously nothing. I know I'm enjoying the life now, a meaningless life. Well perhaps I shouldn't say it's a meaningless life to me, if I'm enjoying the life I'm having now, it doesn't seem to be meaningless to me right. I do nothing except watching series other than those daily routines. Useless. 

I thought of doing a lot of things when I'm back but none of them I've made a move. I happened to expect how would be my holidays, what would I be doing and perhaps how meaningful my holidays would be. People always say that we don't tend to expect too much because things don't always go as we wished. 

Skip. This is not a place to crap too much. 

Back to the past tense. I had a brunch at Beaumont St on the 26th with Hua, Jim, Petrina, Shih Yan and Jun Shoong.

I'm supposed to appear in this photo but Jim's face is way too big and he blocked me, the whole me. This ended with no sign of me in this photo. 

I hope I keep on track with what I planned to do.

My days are so boring and I enjoy the boredom.

人就是这样犯贱 :D
