The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

Yeah... it's been ages since I've updated my blog... AGES.... since end of Jan, so many restrictions has been implemented in the office which also includes a block on all .blogspot sites.  Bugger.  Reason enough for me to "stop" blogging for a while eh?



 Last night, the King of this ship woke me up.  The beautiful Dawn Threader of Narnia.  He knew I was losing control of my voyage as I purposely throw myself overboard in the stormy nights (and days).

 We were out, as the calm sea was gently rolling in sweet peacefulness when suddenly He rushed to the bridge and I knew that a storm was on it's way.  Get up!! He says... Get up!!

Once in Uni days, we played a game, where we were to tape a piece of paper on our back, and people are to write positive things about us.  A very good friend of mine drew a big ship, labelled her Doulos and wrote "Setabah Doulos" on my piece of paper.  Nah... I'm never setabah Doulos, nor am I setabah Logos Hope, but one day, when I meet my King, (though He won't be this handsome bloke!) I hope, I will see Him smiling down at me and say...

That's enough fighting child... it's time for you to cross over and rest beyond the sea now....







Mystery Man - Bill

Hehehe... I have no idea who this man is...
Erm, actually, maybe I do....

He's a man from this website... http://thepioneerwoman.com/confessions/?s=bill

But, gosh, he's so.... damn good looking (hey, beauty in the eyes of the beholder... and he's indeed a beauty to me!)

And he's not married!!! OMIGOSH!!!! (Well, at least as of July 25th 2009 he was not)

Too bad, he don't even know my existance... kahkah!!

note:

Hey Ree - thanks for the pictures ;) (macam lah kenal ini orang kan?)

Hey Bill - if you ever google yourself up and end up in the site - hi there? Care for some coffee? (Kahkah, nang gila oredi me this)

Happy Dragon Year!!!

Nice kan our CNY tree? Hehehe... this is the result of Christmas being so close with CNY. We just took down the Christmas deco and put up some CNY deco.

Happy Dragon year!!!

Note: I super love this tree. It's just depan my table and I really love the beautiful summer blossoms on the tree!

Feeling like a Lion

Rarely do I post 2 times a day, but been really frustrated since morning and need an outlet to vent! Feeling so much like a Lion!! Grrrrrr!!!! Not a dignified, graceful one at that!!


Blame it on the hormones!! There are some days every cycle - without fail, I'd feel like a Lion - no matter how "clean" your hair is, it's puffed up and soooo messy! No matter how nicely iron, nicely fit your outfit is, you still feel YUCKS, my sense of fashion is SO UGLY!!! No matter how polite your language is, you still succeed at saying something dumb and you go - GOSH, LION TO THE CORE!!!

Today is that day. ROARRRR!!!!

On the 12th day... Jan 2012

On the 12th Day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...... Eh, wrong song... :) It's Jan already... on the 12th day of Christmas anymore / yet!

This is a bit late (mid Jan already?!) But, I was just sitting down and wondering... what are the things that I want to achieve in 2012... not as in, resolution or anything coz that would be totally something out of norm for me... so, I'm coming up with a list of 12 things to achieve in 2012. For the physical things, this is actually so that I too have better financial control and aim towards what I want to have. Else, the money just disappears and I don't know where they go!

Instead of coming up with a list immediately, I'm breaking it up to once a month so I don't get too overwhelmed... (erm, sebenarnya belum really sit down and think!) So, on the 12th each month, I'll put in the "to-do" for the next month and update status on the month before (eh, me also confused with this sentence!)

So for Jan 2012.... Jengjengjeng...

A Philips handheld mixer.

We've already got one Kenwood mixer which is quite good but at one point, after being overworked, it got "sick" and even after "medication", it didn't get back to 100% (says the same about our body!) And also, some of our bakes requires a meringue or something, somehow to be beaten up in a separate bowl - which we can't do with our fixed stand mixer. It's a chore to beat one mixture, take it out to another bowl, clean the mixing bowl / legs, dry and start all over again. So, having a handheld mixer is a good backup / addition to our gadgets.

Why not get a stand one? Erm, more expensive and we're already got a standing mixer, so it's OK...

Stay tune on Feb 12th to see if I can achieve this "to-do" item :)

Oat Groat

Oat groats are a whole grain that can be used as a breakfast cereal - Wikipedia

I have no idea when I started liking to a verge of loving oatmeals - but I do. I love them sweet, I love the savoury and now, I love them as cookies! I made a batch of Oatmeal Raisin Cookie "sample" for CNY - trying to tap into a percentage of health concious buyers and I feel in love with these. Crunchy, chewy with a lovely touch of cinnamon, these even smells like Famous Amos to me, but hey, it's so much healthier! Love love... I'll bake another batch soon for sure!!
