some end of term Alia love + OBS

Woah. It's been a while since I last posted. hmmmmm i think the last post was written in mid june :P Big sorry to loyal readers out there (if there are any) for coming back to check out my rusty, boring blog with the vain 'picnik fun' post of me popping out. hmph some ppl thought i look like a vampire in that pic >.<

What surprises me most after a blogging-free-month is the whole new blogger draft thingy. It's so neat and chio now! Simple and nice. Don't you just love these changes?  hee :)

I'm not quite sure about what to write today because I don't own a good camera. If I have a good slr I would have posted all my beautiful pics up here and share with you guys. BUT, ....That's why I seldom blog! Anyway, on a brighter side, I'm getting one soon. Yay! :D

So in the meantime I shall just dig out whatever that's in my iPhoto and do a simple flash back. Bear with me, please :3  


I begged a friend of mine who lives in Malacca to buy me Nadeje's mille crepe for me. Have been craving to taste this since god knows how long ago.  It was a Sunday night and chwin wern surprised me with 2 slices of the original flavoured one. My long demanded cake! Don't ask me how to describe because I really really really hate those TV hosts exaggerating how awesome the food were in their shows. Such dramatic bitches.

Well, the cake was no doubt, delicious. Mille means a thousand in french. So I reckon you know what's the selling point of the cake. but somehow i thought it wasn't as good as I expected. I was literally disappointed, just a lil bit. Perhaps it was me..I was expecting something like a godlike yummy cake before this but i guess the media just overrated it.  Anyhow, you should really give it a try. Worth your 8 bucks :D


Now compare Nadeje's to Grace's! HAHAHA not bad leh my cake :) I bet kids will choose mine. lol.
Fyi, it's chocolate fudge cake with lots of dark chocolates! Mouth watering ey? Baked it a week before end of term since Alia house has so many ovens and a bloody posh mixer. How could I resist myself to not use it? Heh.

I really enjoy baking. Big cakes especially. coz you can cut it into smaller pieces so that every one can share the yumz and love. and because I felt so loved. so so so much love surrounding me that I felt like doing something for the others. That's why I went out to buy the ingredients and baked it with some housemates in the pantry. What matters most is not how successful the cake was but how much people actually appreciate your work. That's the joy you got when you bake ❤❤


Fugly max. I'm sorry but this is the only pic I have with my new teddy bear.
Ms Campbell gave it to me as a reward of getting all A's in my college's internal assessment. I'm so happy coz it's not easy to get it. Not much people score as well. So I was thinking a name for her( yes it's a she) and I finally decided to name it  'UCL'! hahaha don't laugh la i know it sounds cacat for a bear's name but I really like that uni!  Heh. shall work hard with you lil UCL and I promise to bring you over there next year! :) woah, big commitment though.



Anyway, I'm back to Penang island already. omg I survived OBS. Haha! Those 10 days weren't as bad as I thought. In fact, I had lots of fun! in spite of all the tired moments, I felt so strong. haha imagine kayaking for 5 hours under the scorching sun out in the sea, climbing 3 peaks in 2 days, doing abseiling down a steep steep cliff, rock climbing (real rock!), building a raft from scratch, solo camping as in living in the jungle alone for one day one night, walking up 148 steps of stairs twice a day back to our dorms..etc  It was a blast!


I managed to complete all tasks and my instructor said he was impressed to see little feet walking so fast LOL. coz initially he thought small girls like me might be weak and slow but he was proven to be wrong! I can even start my own fire to cook and survive my jungle life like Jane, Tarzan's gf.  quite proud of myself coz I am actually an Altophobia (very afraid of heights). Good for me la, I think I can conquer bit by bit nowadays :)

 Lots of memorable experiences. Go Tahan!
oh well, home sweet home. So far, my holiday's treating me quite well. Holiday= having a good rest = ate a lot + doing nothing constructive :P Heh.

More updates coming up, stay tuned.
XOXO.

Another lazy weekday

Recently, my roommate bought a digital camera and decided to test out her new baby on the model me.
I edited a lil bit and uploaded it here to call it a post. 

hmm.. How's your week so far?


ok. She loves her turtle more so she used background de focus on that little creature instead of me 
 -.-



arrest and eat you up!

Saturday at Pavilion



hmm.. I haven't been updating for days. Blame the internet connection here -.- 

How's everything? Had an enjoyable weekend? I did :) Went shopping at Pavilion last Saturday which caused my wallet to be empty, literally. But whatever la, haven't been spending like this for quite a long time..hahaha shopping is always the greatest guilty pleasure! ♥


gosh. I contributed so much to the economy thanks to Pavilion :/

 

Had brunch at DÔME Café.. 
and I ordered the cutest thing on earth :D
.....
..
.


Babycino!  served with 2  tiny marshmallows 

cuteness x 10000000000....∞ maths error


Big Baby Grace loves cute baby things! :D
It's actually for kids but I insisted the waitress to get one for me LOL.

 

and my brunch.. beef gourmet pie :)
yums.. I love gourmet pies ♥♥


Did a lot of shopping for prom. Ahh I hate shopping for prom. It's so not fun! It's so different from shopping for normal causal things. You have to basically hunt for things that you won't want to wear much in daily life in a given time and limited income. Stupid. I would rather shop for beautiful casual clothes and bags >.<



But this one is my favourite for the day. Look much like Kate Middleton's engagement ring right? Haha imitations :) 


Nothing much again. 
but it's prom this weekend! Excited? Not really. Looking forward anyway :) 
Stay tuned.

Le deux juin, deux mille onze

Time flies isn't it..It's already June. Comment ça va?
half a year had gone and uh-huh, life's so far so good here.

Haven't been doing much these few days. Even though maths papers are coming in 2 weeks time, I am still chilling here. I'm just too lazy to even open my pencil case, and that's not good =/


Every morning, I look out the window and feel the morning breeze. I can just stare at random stuff outside my window: the blue sky, clouds, grass, birds, squirrels(yes a lot here), Ms.Campbell's cats, random people walking pass the corridor etc. What a peaceful moment. ohh, did you spot my rabbit? :)

 
 J' aime lire des livres ♥
 
Since major papers were over, I'm starting to have some relaxing time reading books(not textbook) when I don't feel like doing maths. Wearing loose clothing, lying on the bed with a book that smells like coffee is just perfect. Not forgetting a mug of Lipton golden milk tea on my desktop. C'est Le Vie.


hahahas. Yea I know, why playing around with french words? Well, apparently my friends and I have been learning some basics with Ms. Esmeralda but we are seriously a big failure LOL. We have been learing since last term but sadly, we can't really speak well nor compose a grammatically correct sentence yet. It's just harder to learn a new language at this age. Too old for that! Heh, I think it's also our own problem for not revising that often :P

I even got  a French Dictionary! :)

I am also very happy now because I just checked my account balance online and muahahaha.. 
Can you see the dollar signs on my eyes now?  Like this>>  $________$ 

It feels so good when you see an inflow on the credit column. Ka Ching! Ka Ching! gao gao. Thank you bank negara! My wallet is once again fat and the previous guilty feeling for spending on shopping has gone already. Hmm I think I'm gonna buy something nice again this weekend. *evil grin*


Okla, that's it for now.
Abieto! :)
