- You could spend your whole life, miserable, trying to be someone that you're not, trying to make someone else happy, and knowing that nothing may ever be enough, or you could spend your life being who you are and making yourself happy -

oooooh baby.....today was great. it's my mom's birthday and we had a combined birthday celebration for me mom and dad at T3's Earl Swensen. ordered BBQ burger for myself. i thought it was going to be a small serving but when i got served, my god!!i got the freaking shock of my life. it was HUGE!!it could be shared between 2 people. i could only finish 1/3 of it and the rest i had them bagged and brought home. i couldn't take it. it was too much. my sisters and brother were lecturing me about how i should not waste it and how i should be lucky i got food on my plate yada yada yada...i would continue but i guess you guys should know what the rest is about. ;-) it was crazy and fun.

now, for the ice cream, i ordered hazel daze. it was delicious let me tell you. i was looking forward for the ice cream for over a week and i finally had it. my taste bud has now been satisfied. ;-) i'm a happy happy girl now.hahahahax...

it's very rare for my family to have these kind of moments where everyone is in attendance and we joked around and basically had fun. sure there were the ups and downs but it was definitely a day i'd cherish for a long time.

it's just us daddy...

-A coward is someone who makes decisions based only on their fears-

for all those with a broken heart, ditch your Ben&Jerry. i have found a better comfort food to soothe the broken hearted. it doesn't pack as much calories as B&J and it's easy to make. i totally fell in love with it the moment i took the first bite. in Singapore i doubt so a lot of people make it but in America, it's a classic.

it's called milk toast and it's the nicest food i have ever tasted. i love cinnamon so i think my judgement might be a tad bias but what the heck, it's one hell of a toast. the ingredients are pretty much basic. all you need are slices of bread, margarine/butter, sugar, cinnamon, raisin (optional)and milk. toast the bread while heating up milk with the raisins in them for about a minute and a half in the microwave. take the milk out and add sugar and cinnamon your milk and mix. add the toasted bread that you have spread with margarine/butter and had it torn into bite size.voila!you got the most nicest comfort food. for me at least. this is my version of doing it. there are other ways to prepare it but i find them tedious so i took a shortcut and came up with this. and oh yea, i always skip the margarine.

trust me, once you take a bite out of this baby, you will think twice before spending 18 bucks on a pint of ice cream to soothe your broken heart. it's bloody heavenly i tell you that.

- i'm not a bitch. i just have issues. A LOT. -

nice morning. good weather. bad sore throat and horrible running nose. i thought those two were suppose to come together with the fever. you know, like in a package.

fever + sore throat + running nose = one hell of a day


this is stupid. i thought i was getting better. now i'm losing my voice. my voice!how to talk?! i don't know sign language and like hell am i going to write down everything i'm going to say. my hands would go numb before the day is over. now people can disturb me and i can't answer them back. drats. i'm hoping to get my voice back by monday. being talked down by matt is not something i'm looking forward to you know or maybe i can just sit far far away from him. oh well, i just have to wait and see. i'm praying real hard you know.

if i behave myself and be a good girl over the weekend, can i get my voice back?

- before you look into my wallet, just so you know, i'm not a shopaholic, i just collect receipts -

i'm in the midst of doing my research. got tired so i decided to take a break but i can honestly say i don't deserve it. i need to pick up my pace!!i got to make up for the time i've lost due to unfortunate reason. had fever since monday which was followed by sore throat. with these two, i can't concentrate on doing my research. you try looking at the computer for 7 hours while your eyes are burning because of your damn fever. every time i closed my eyes, i can feel it burn!!my god. i didn't know fever + staring at the computer for a long time can result to that. so that was why i did nothing for those few days.

by now, most of you can figure out what's my schedule like. reach around 9.30am or later (it's rare i reach before that), do my research all the way till 11.30am or 12pm. then i go out to the canteen to buy fruits and take a breather as well. back in 30 mins or later because sometimes i head down to co-op to get my drink. after that, continue with the research till i go brain dead which would roughly be round 3.30pm or 4pm. by then you would see me walking around eGarage. so that's basically my time-table. trust me, it is NOT a relaxed time-table. being brain dead by the time school's over is not good for me you know cause i have to endure 1 hr and 30 mins ride back home being packed like a freaking sardine thanks to the bloody rush hour. my life is insane. insanely boring and predictable. 3wks down. god knows how many more.

And just for the record, after this project is over, i am NEVER reading another outsourcing article again! i am swearing off them!
