yes. my world is filled with dilemma for NOW. to be exact,kinda full to the brim with it. T__T

here,lemme show you.

dilemma 1:

[every now and then] im super sleepy but i also feel like blogging. so how?blog or not? DILEMMA! (but yes the answer here is obvious and yes,once again im blogging while im in a sleepy mode *hand covers eyes*)

dilemma 2:

in the event that i DO blog,what should i blog?seems like i have nothing to blog. but alright maybe i will blog about that.so blog or not? if not good then HOW?? DILEMMA!! (and the answer is obvious here as well=__=” )

dilemma 3:

this is one tough question. seriously. career line, A,B or C? (look! THREE!!) i like to do A but it doesnt give me protection/much ‘benefits’. i can do B but i dont really like B coz it can kill me,literally. i now have a C which is pretty new and it’s a target and i am hoping to reach it,then i can earn $$. so HOW?? DILEMMA!! (erm im thinking B+C and attempting to reach the target..can ah??0_0)

dilemma 4:

[now you might wanna slap me on this]

THE DRESS!! BUY OR NOT??DILEMMA!! total dilemma!!

 

AND NOW!

DILEMMA 5: take a nap now or continue to work on my ‘inspirations’??

ok now that’s  a total dilemma. =_____=”

i know. dont kill me.

but currently i quite enjoy the feeling of rushing adrenaline (huh?) when i have an inspiration, especially on what i love to do and want to do. just like my current fav picture shared from Miao&Wafu Pafu *link*:

like this

  

 

have been following his blog for quite a long time since uni years and like it very much!

 

oh yes,by the way,decided to take a nap now. T__T  *shameless*

I KNOW!! just dont kill me.

lemme tell you one thing, i have never been successful in baking. =_____= so sad right?

but unlike cooking,baking is wayyyyy trickier =_= anybody agree with me here?

anyway,in the name of Martha Stewart’s spirit to handmake your own thoughtful gifts, i baked.

and as im-paiseh as i could,[‘im’ as in ‘im-polite’,adjective] i annouced to the whole world that i succeeded in baking the cookies for the first time (sort of,actually) through FB and Twitter. sorry lor too excited. =__=x

and the recipe of success is this:

 

 

Chocolate Sugar Cookies:

2 3/4 cups (355 grams) all purpose flour

3/4 cup (75 grams) unsweetened Dutch processed cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon (4 grams) baking powder

1 cup (227 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature

1 3/4 cups (350 grams) granulated white sugar

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Royal Icing Using Egg Whites:

2 large (60 grams) egg whites

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

3 cups (345 grams) confectioners (powdered or icing) sugar, sifted

and a little tip which i learnt from my patissier aunt:

 

to freeze the rolled up dough wrapped in wax paper/baking sheets. so it will be like a long frozen cylinder.

reason: it will be easy to cut into pieces/slices and bakes more evenly and you can make alot at one time and save the rest to bake only when you want it.

 

and as i said,i broke the hand mixer doing this. (i really dont know why dont know how,dont ask..T_____T)

so i had to use fork to whip up the royal icing. but it was so fun!!

with all the colours and it’s hardening process.

so i painstakingly patched up the special character i want , one by one,step by step.

hah! as the cantonese sayings: use alot of money also cant buy!!

 

in the end,it’s the thought that counts =)

 

p/s: gosh im getting so MarthaStewart-y =_____=x

pictorial post..

once again im blogging when im in this sleepy state..*stare*(dont ask!)

actually just came back from hours of  ‘kan cheong-ness + bliss’ in a meet up =_____=”

oh but i did met my former F6 classmate along the way! hah! i still remember the favourite punch line! XD

so anyway,

here are my ‘siblings’, and we all learnt the same arts and grew up together in this neighbourhood where we were made compulsory to perform in almost all of the festive gatherings =p

 

 

here’s the reunion dinner..

 

 

oh and here, such a young model/camera candy =_=

 

the lion dance on the second day..

  

and the cute baby who is so easy to care for..

 

 

(and my primary school’s gathering summarised in this video. )

and my Sixth Formers!!  <3

 

unlike previous years when i snaps most of the cny moments..this year im so lazy i decided to steal pictures from my brother’s and my friend’s album =p

 

anyway, baked today for a secret project..and i succeeded!! (i know,i announced it to the whole world in FB already,paiseh =_=” )

and the BEST news is,i broke the hand mixer making it..=_____=x

 

ah bed is calling for the hundredth time already,

anticipating for the launch of the secret project =p

i am sooooo sleepy now i have been sleeping super late these days..went out for gatherings and only come home late at night..and i think my Garnier Eyes Roll-on wouldnt help either..and i might need some kill-pimples stuff =x

oh and some Dequadin pastilles..

 

and one of the many ‘guilt’s , no wait, should be the ONLY guilt, is,

the ‘prosperous’ food..(knowing how some says ‘FATT is bliss’ / ‘fat is bliss’ =__=)

okay i know,stupid pun. =_____= im just too sleepy..

just did household chores to burn off the calories!! (yea my ‘secret weapon’ lor..=_=)

 

been soooo great catching up with friends!! had so much laughter talking about the silly old time stuff..

which,reminds me,im not young anymore T__T

and so many are getting married or are married!! *horror*

so next year we might see some bringing babies =o

 

anyway,forced my friend to do this: video .

ROFL!! XD this is to those guilty individuals who didnt attend the gathering! =p

 

ah right,so now more stuff to settle ..and..anticipating tomorrow! ;)

happy chinese new year again!!
