finally! and update =)

i'm gonna shift blog soon.. sigh i know i've been really bad at updating.. which is why i need to share a blog with ppl.. which brings me to mun teng and li chin! =) so we might just start a new blog together.. MAYBE.. if we're not too bogged down with uni work..

YES! uni work is the reason for my absence.. on the other hand, junita's wedding deco is bugging me like crazy.. i'm gonna go all out after EOS exams which ends on nov 20th.. that leaves me with like 12 days of prep.. i THINK i can make it.. no, i BELIEVE i can make it! i just need help.. hahaha..

so yeah! i'm so praying that God will give me His strength to go through this hurdle.. after this, no more wedding deco projects! it's not like i dislike doing it, it's just really stressful and i felt like i may have jumped right into it instead of building my confidence through smaller projects.. i feel very unassured of my ablities actually..

speaking of being unassured of my abilities, i dont know what i wanna do in the future anymore.. at first i thought, oh maybe i'll get my nutrition and dietitics degree that parents want then venture out into interior design after.. but even though it's just been one semester in this course, i really am starting to fall in love with nutrition and dietitics. it could be because of the people in my course.. maybe, but the prospect of helping the sick really strikes a chord in my heart.. these are people who are really in need, and if i can somehow help them, i WANT to! i feel that this is where i can make a difference, or at least impact the people i meet..

and not to say that i'll be neglecting my passion for arts and crafts, but maybe that's just it! maybe i what i love isn't interior design but really arts and crafts.. creating things that make people smile and laugh, that they can use.. i wonder how i mixed these two things up.. and no wonder i felt little joy in doing junita's wedding deco.. it's not that i dont want to do it, it just felt like it was sucking the life out of me rather than me putting life to my designs.. but i know i cant and wont regret taking up junita's wedding because the things i've learnt made me grow up..

rach, i made this is for you..

because i know you love pink.. come get it from me on sunday =)
on a another note, congrats to you guys on getting into Warwick! shall miss you both and the rest who weren't in the pic. wish i had more time with you all.. ALL THE BEST, GUYS!

Aren't we better off?

i watch a video during English class today.. it's called The Curse of the Child Actor... anyways i felt really disturbed or rather just sad that they died like that, suicide, overdose especially.. taking their own lives, most of them.. the pressure and stress they had to go through must have been enormous.. and i feel so helpless.. all i do is complain about what irks me.. i guess i really need to start looking at what's been going on in the whole world..

so i've come to the conclusion that i will no complain! if you catch me doing it, please remind me of this post..

*applause*

My FIRST tiramisu and kiwi cheesecake turned out GREAT!!

i'm so glad! no pictures though.. oh well, since it turned out so well i MIGHT just bake them again =D

i still love volleyball even though...

we lost the match yesterday.. SIGH we were really really REALLY close! the score was 23-25, 25-8 (somewhere around 8 i think) and 7-15... took me about 24 hours to get over it hahahaha i'm such a sore loser huh? well i cant help it.. i mean we really practised our hardest whenever we could.. it's frustrating! but there's always next year, so we'll train and practise even more and by next year, we'll be ready to kick some butt!

it's been too long..

right yes.. i've been guilty of neglecting my blog AGAIN! sigh, this really should not continue.. i will try harder to update this rather than my facebook!

i'm such a careless person. i've lost my 8Gb thumbdrive!! rarh!!! this is the second one in less than a month.. dont want to say more... uhh, the heartache!

anyways, i've been busying myself with volleyball practice and uni.. then i realized i have not baked in quite a while.. i mean i haven't even used the icing belle gave me in march! gah! what a no-life-er i am.. so i decided since sin ying will be starting her clinical practice in seremban and i owe randy a birthday cake, i might as well pick up those baking books and put on my apron again!

i was so torn between what to bake because i didn't want to just bake the same old things again.. and after all, it gets quite boring.. i tossed and turned ideas in my head and finally came to a conclusion that i will ATTEMPT to bake tiramisu and peach cheesecake! these cakes are pretty tough to bake so i've been searching online for recipes that work (though i'll never know if they work till i try them!)..

Dare to Move camp was great! met new people and made new friends =D and for the very first time in my life, my games group won! yeah! but kat's departure really saddened me.. i miss her soo sooo much..


on another note, han sean's leaving on friday =( i'm very sad.. i'll really miss him with his crazy randomness and spontaniety.. sigh, it's really tough when your peers start leaving the country to further their studies and you're left behind, constantly reminding yourself that different people have different purposes in life, and that staying behind in Malaysia DOES NOT make you a loser. it's not like a feel like a total loser but, you know, it's usually the smart brainiacs that are extemely capable that get to go overseas for their tiertiary education. i just need to get over myself and believe WHOLE-HEARTEDLY that God has THE perfect plan for my life. anyways these are some pictures we took with han sean on sunday at his farewell lunch, rest are one facebook =D


oh and to put the faces to the names of my uni friends, here's one picture just for you
L2R : li chin, lee cheng, mun teng (see you girls at volleyball practice =D)

sigh.. bliss =)

i know i said i'd blog about a book.. but that can wait.. today i just feel really happy! =) yeap! today, i...

• had my first driving lesson
• ate an absolutely scrumptious blueberry cheese tart.. Yumm!
• had a great laughing session with uni friends
  
• experienced mun teng's driving for the first time (there were lots and lots of screaming in the car hahahaha!)
  
• had a wonderful time with julie and annola over dinner
• ate grandma's signature dish, the "lobak" :)
  

so yeah, i'm really really happy! especially when i managed to eat the cheese tart! every bite was delicious! REALLY WAN!! ahahaha

anyways i realized one thing, and that is, i really like being in IMU! i mean the workload is crazy and independent study is key to getting your grades, BUT!!!! the company is great and i really have so much to be thankful for.. of course not all my teachers are top notch, BUT!!!! IMU really provides a conducive environment to facilitate our learning.. i love this part of the library, my friends and i like to call, the "GLASSROOM". best of all, the people there are really nice! i've made friends with people who are beautiful inside and out =) there's no battle going on for the most popular clique or anything, no badmouthing of anyone and everyone here is sort of equal you know.. that kinda thing.. everyone's basically looking to create some really good memories and build friendships that will last.. at least that's the impression that i get =D and i love cf! it's such a fun place to be! reminds me of high school when i was in the cf committee and everyone's family.. all of these were alien to me in HELP and now i'm just glad that i feel welcomed in IMU..

so i just wanna say, THANK YOU GOD for placing me in IMU and for letting me meet every single person i've shook handsand laughed with, and those that i've waved at and smile to =)

I AM THANKFUL!
