Happy Mother's Day

It's that time of the year again. For everyone to give their mother a good treat! A time for all of us being children to appreciate our mothers. But then I kinda disagree to this statement. Everyday should be mother's day! Everyone should love and appreciate their mothers every single moment because without them, you will never be in this beautiful world~ So how was your celebration? Did you buy your mom a present? Or treat her out for dinner? Or maybe send her for relaxing spa? 

Last year me and my bro made pizza topped with heart made out of chocolates. This year, I decided to go for something extra! I planned the whole thing about a week ago. Made changes here and there. We celebrated a night earlier because Sunday noon my bro won't be home to help out. Not that he helped out much but still, an extra pair of hands is kinda useful at times like this.

The dinner we cooked for our dearest mommy! I modified most of the dishes into our own taste. Hehe =P

This is salad wrapped in poh piah skin. It's supposed to be warm outside and cold inside but we wrapped it too early and I dumbly didn't put them into the fridge =( Turned out a failure! Another mistake was the vege. Mom said I should put green leafy vege but instead should put beans. Ok no more next time. I'll just make proper salad =D

Sardin macaroni! My creation! Hahaha! Now this one turned out abit too saucy. Bro didn't like it much but mom managed to finish hers. Mistake is yes, I should have taken out the sauce instead of pouring the whole can. Dumb dumb!

Last but not least, the main dish of the night: Cottage Pie! I Googled up this recipe and told myself that I must do this! This one turned out to be a success! Except the part that my oven doesn't work well and neither does my electric oven. I need a proper oven to bake this pie. The base wasn't cooked like the top part which by right, they should be the same. It's still edible and yes it's very nice! Thumbs up for myself! =P

I would love to try again for the pie. But then again, I do need a proper oven first. So that I can control the top and bottom fire separately. Anyway, mom didn't complain anything. She was hyped at the sight of the Cottage pie. Hehe =) Hope she's happy with this meal. Will cook more interesting stuff next time. I wanna learn how to bake more varieties of cakes!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Friends and Effort

Image
Friends. They come and go. Everyone cross path with you for a reason. Either to be your lifelong dependable friend or just to teach you a lesson. Some come and go as quick as the quicksand. Some stayed on for couple of months and take their departure once the mission completes. While some, is just a phone call away since day one.  So how do you know who belongs to which category?  The answer is, you don't. Living for 30 years, having friends for as long as 20 years, I realised that it is all about the effort. The phrase, 'It takes two to tango' is so accurate that it can even predict the rainy and sunny days. What kind of effort are we talking about here? We're talking about the effort to make friend(s) and keep up the effort to make that friendship last with even the smallest step. Have you ever thought about the effort you make? What did you do to keep that friendship? Or the effort your friend(s) made to meet up, to call, or merely just a simple text...

Dr Sun Yat-Sen's Resident

Chinese New Year is officially over. Gotta roll back to normal work days no matter how much you hated it. But well, it's another start! So heads up peeps! Stay strong for year 2011!!! The best has yet to come! Does anyone here knows who is the first president of China? Let me bring you back to history =D I'm a sucker in history subject in school but I think this vacation had taught me alot about China's history. I get to know who is the president, who is the patriot and who else is who. Some of you may say that this is boring but I think what's boring is just texts on books. Try going to a school where they bring you all over the historical place. I'll tell you it's fun! I'm lazy to introduce much. If you want more info, you can always ask Google. Haha! Here is Dr Sun Yat Sen's house in Guangzhou when he was young. Man this house stood there for over 200 years!!!! He was a Chinese doctor who then known as the Founding Father of Republican China...

Random Updates 12-07-2011

I feel like a lost lamb now. I just want to crap everything out and off. You know how life can be at crossroads at times? But man, mine isn't at crossroad now. It's as if I walked into a dark forest and can't find my way out. I've been feeling down and stressed and I don't know, maybe even depressed. I don't know who to talk to about this stuff. I can't talk about it to people around me cos they will all say about the same old stuff. What am I talking about? It's my career, my future. Previously I have goals and aims and future dreams. But it seems to have shattered into pieces cos certain reasons keep pulling me back. Back in secondary school, I dream of becoming an accountant. A chartered accountant just so I can do the easy job. Sign the documents and get paid for my signature. How easy is that and how stupid I was to even think that it's an easy course. So off I went to major in accounting and my life was peaceful. It was until college that eve...
