Total robbery

I think karma truly exists. Like, on Sunday night my fever was already subsiding right, but after I made fun of those horrible singers on the charity show, my fever started rising. By 1 in the morning I was 40.2 degrees, and Dad said I have to go to the doctor's now. Which, you know, pissed me off a little, because a) I was so f'ing cold even under 2 blankets and the fan/air-con wasn't even on, and b) I knew there was a very high chance that I vomit should I get onto a vehicle. But no, Dad was adamant that I go so we bundled me up in a thick jacket and tracks and went to East Shore Hospital. Got a jab for my fever, and I immediately felt like I was some radiator. Like, my heat was being dispelled like whoosh. And had lots of medicine. Total bill was 200. I was too out of it to comment on the price, but now my fever is ranging quite low, so yeah LIKE WTF 200 F'ING DOLLARS WHAT ARE YOU MAD?!?

Stupid tonsilitis. I don't know how you spell it but this seems correct. This has been the 3rd time since I've gotten it last time after camp. This sucksssssssss. Today went to school for art p.w. and finished my candy collage and balloon thing, but I felt too tired so I didn't talk much. When i got home I found out my fever returned so I skipped sectionals. I hope I'll be better by tmr to go, cos there's... DUNDUNDUNDUN. Costume check.

Agh. And now Daddy's sick too, which you know, sucks, because that means I might have passed it to him. D:

Charity show horror

Sorry la! I don't mean to laugh (okay actually I do) but the singing is atrocious! Tune in to channel 8's charity show. First the children singing that song, um, whats it called, okay wtv that song, & they were horribly off-tune. As in, there was NO NOTE THAT WAS IN TUNE. I know, it's a charity show, so give and take a little, but I can't help but wonder did they purposely get horrible off-tune kids to sing the song, so as to make others think of them as... I don't know, like donate out of pity and everything?

Fever subsided, which, sort of sucks, I guess, but I'm definitely in no shape to go choir tmr. My voice is croaky, when I do talk, and i have lots of phlegm. I don't know how I'm gonna sleep tonight; my nose keeps getting blocked. Argh.

What the f' is going on in here

I have no idea why am I so f'ing emotional today and it's getting me all arugnrufnoiddsn and it might be the fever or something else ARGH WHY IS IT SO HARD FOR YOU TO JUST GET UP AT 8 AND GO EAT MACS WITH ME. F'ing pissed off

That's what you get

I think if choir practices were all held by Mr. Kwei, a)we will improve a lot faster, and b)choir won't be such a drag. Because, well, no offence but I can't really stand Mr Foong, and Marie/Marcus always stop us in the middle of the song so even if we build up some suspense/intensity during the song, the moment they make us stop it's gone, which is so f'ing annoying. And Mr Kwei makes funny comments anyway, which you know, helps in passing time. And Mr Kwei usually ends on time/early, which is a definite plus.

But, I think it'll cost a hefty sum to have Mr Kwei conducting all the choir sessions, so wtv.

As you have guessed, we had choir today again. Today there seemed to be many sops missing. Agh my eyes are f'ing itchy. ANYWAY. I am so so so so so glad}x9182982039 times that this semester is finally over! No more listening to Ms Toh's scoldings and having to chase after people for forms or anything, ANYMORE. It's now Dexter's job! The good thing about the Class Comm. Feedback on wednesday was that a)we get to slack, b)leave school earlier than the rest and c)we can complain about bitchy teachers!! And we talked about * as well which you know, I find funny and its not totally unexpected of *.

Ah there's nothing to watch on telly so I switched to Animal Planet. I want to bake!

Welcome to the dB family

I haven't blogged in a week! Oh well. I'm like f'ing tired nowadays and I barely have the time to start on the holiday homework yet, anyway, (thanks to choir)(which is totally taking over our lives)(it's like I can't have a social life during June holidays anymore!) and during tuition I'm super crabby and I cannot stand that St. Pats boy. The short one, I mean.

Ytd Sam and I were bitching about him. Ooh how would I like to go punch his face and give him a REAL tongue piercing. See how he's going to brag about it then! I doubt he'd be able to make those stupid attention-craving WHOOSH sounds with his teeth any longer because he'd be on the floor in excrucriating pain!!! MUAHAHA. I know, I'm such a bitch.

Anyway. Choir ytd was about the suckiest one yet, and Jiamin spilled water. Not on herself though. ON ME, of course. What else.

Bazaar baking was fun! Too many people, I think, cos some barely helped, but yeah Nad's house is f'ing awesome. And her cat looks cuddly. But you know, her cat scratches, so yeah. Omg I have this sudden urge to go hug Cookie.

Bazaar today was so. Bleugh. Last year's seemed more... energetic? Lively. Yeah. It was more Lively. Definitely. This year's was almost mellow. But I like the... something paiti that 2D sold. Yummy. Bad thing was it was kind of hard to eat, with the 2 ulcers I have. Oh! One of my ulcer is in the shape of a V. Weird or what.

Anyway. Going to sleep first, then ptm. Bye.

Finally, a breather



I baked the lemon sugar snaps, and as you can see, they look exactly like snickerdoodles. The texture is about the same (buttery, crisp edges, crumbly), but the taste is definitely lemon. And who loves lemon-flavoured stuff more than yours truly!

Yumyum. And I left them in the oven after the heat time was finished to let it get a bit crispier. It worked! I repeat, yumyum. Baking is so therapeutic, I think I would bake everyday, but then if I do, all the food won't be eaten so, yeah, :(

Anyway, I think Ed Westwick will make a better Edward than Cedric Diggory (Okay, his name is like, Robert Pattison or something, but wtv!) They both have that weird stare anyway. Oh well, I watched some clips of the season finale. I cannot wait. Yes yes yessssssssss.

Revisiting

I caved in and bought Twilight and reread it. I know, 'she's so stupid, she's already read the book before, so why is she buying it again?' The book is so easy to fall in love with, seriously. Anyway, results are back (most of them) and I have... 4 A1s so far? But only 2 of the A1s are like 80+ so, yeah, maybe next time I can do better or something. The rest are all B3-4s :P

Watched GG Ep. 17 yesterday. Seriously, I want to kill G already. Or maybe if she's psycho enough she can kill herself, like, in a fit or something. YEAH HOW ABOUT THAT!!

Choir is almost on everyday of the week now, bloody tiring. Hopefully next week won't be like this man! This week was tiring. Like REALLY tiring. My heels hurt like crap for some reason unknown, but everytime I stand on them now they tingle (in a bad way) and my shoulders hurt too. Oh well, tomorrow's Thursday, so maybe it'd be better :)

Bazaar preparations next week! Cookie baking at N's house on Tuesday. Snickerdoodles, only, cos I don't have any other fail-safe cookie recipe, and there's no time this week to try bake any other type of cookies. (Although I reaaaaaaaaaaaaally want to try bake peanut butter cookies, or lemon sugar cookies, to get rid of the lemons I have in the fridge still.)

Life is total BS right now.

By George, I think she's got it!

SUCCESS!

Okay, not exactly, there's still tomorrow left to take it out of the fridge, freeze, dip in chocolate and decorate decorate decorate!! Haha fun. And then choir had to go ruin it all. Shit I didn't hand in my form and what if Mdm Goo isn't there?!?

I have a blister below my pinky finger on my palm due to the whisking. It hurts a lot, of course.

Agh, S why are you so... confusing!!

Take out your hats and flips

Before I exclaim how happy I am that exams are finally over, let me wish my dear friend Manda a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I know, pink, what a very gay colour, but pink, what a very gay colour that I like. Anyway, hope you enjoy your busy busy life in IB, Manda, I think we'll be meeting up soon because I heard my Mom talking to your Mom over the phone last night, so yeah, yay :D

Okay, anyway, exams are all done. Finito. I am happy. And anyway, I'm going to spend 2 hours or so in Parkway without company today. Because I have to buy some stuff to make the * for my mom for Mother's Day and if I buy them today I can start today cos the bloody thing is a tedious few-days-needed-of-work. Oh well.

And I know Cin's going to be really mad when she comes home because the stupid girl took a blueberry muffin to school today, thinking that it was a chocolate chip muffin. And I, however smart but blur, took the chocolate chip one because HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW SHE LEFT IT AT HOME? So tadum, now her last chocolate chip one is in my tummy and she's most probably complaining about how she took the first bite in a blueberry one (which i'm sure she doesn't like because, come on, this is Cindy we're talking about, she doesn't like anything new. At all. Serious.)

Oh well. Back to ignoring Cookie, even though she's rubbing her head against my foot. Because, who told her to bite me yesterday? Or meow when I carry her? I think the least she could do in gratitude as I feed her every morning when nobody is awake enough to, even though I'm freaking hungry and need to eat my OWN breakfast, or maybe she should remember it was I who fed her tuna when I came home, because nobody could decipher her meows as 'I WANT TUNA'? Oh well, her loss. Not mine. :)

OMFG

I now truly believe the power of Josh Schwartz and Gossip Girl. OMFG can't believe the episode. And I can't believe how bimbotic I'm acting right now.
!6:24 PM
Temptations and whatnot

I caved in and baked the muffins to rid myself of the buttermilk. I finished the flour and brown sugar, but sadly, NOT the buttermilk. Damn there's still so much left but the muffins smell delicious. I already ate a blueberry one. It's yummy.

Read through Lit. and I'm going to sleep at 9 tonight, I don't care. Sleep sleep sleep. I'm sleeping really deeply nowadays so when I wake up I'm really groggy (or even more groggier than usual, anyway).

I am so ashamed to admit this, but I want to watch the Twilight movie. I still think they could have done a better job with casting Edward, but watching the trailer has sparked an interest to watch it. The girl looks like Jennifer Love Hewitt in a certain angle, though. Or maybe I'm just a bit cock-eyed right now. Nevertheless, I have this very strong urge to buy the first book, Twilight, because somehow I have both the 2nd and 3rd book, but not the 1st. I think I borrowed Gwen's or Jasmine's. ANYWAY I WANT THAT BOOK. Ah I remember the days I was crazed over the Twilight series. I was seriously, seriously, in love with it. No kidding. I think Stephanie Meyer portrayed the relationship between Edward and Bella really well.

Digressing yet again. Damn I can't believe choir is making us go back on Friday. LIKE WHAT THE @&#!!

Bake-a-romia

I want to bake vanilla sweet buns and cinnamon buns! But, there's yeast in the recipe, and there's rolling of the dough. So then again, maybe not. Bad experience. *shudder*

And lookity look! It's going to rain! Good day for baking but I've got to study history. Oh poo.

She's the girl with the cold black heart

Ah why is it not raining! Z. It is supposed to rain every day in Singapore! I don't care if it's sunny in one moment; IT ALWAYS RAINS THE NEXT. Really. The weather in Singapore is so f'ed up that there was this one time, we were driving in the car and it was raining. But the moment we went under a short-width bridge and came out, it was complete sunshine and sunny and whatever. What the hell is this, I ask you? Utter bullshit!

Woke up at 7:45; which sucks because I used to be able to sleep all the way till 12 in the noon. And I've been thinking a lot. Which is bad, because usuall if I don't think about stuff, they won't get worst. Like about / and -. It's like, all of us aren't as close anymore? / has her other friends, and well, - sometimes just doesn't care if you talk to her or not. Which just sucks.

Ah I miss Primary school. Not so much of the people (except for the close ones of course :>), but more of the stabilty of it. Oh, and the food. Yumyum. So much better than the Secondary school food. Like the noodles in primary school + chilli. Yumyum. Seriously yummy. And the curry with chicken rice. Oh, and they're much more hygienic than the food in TK. At least you won't see the vendors dropping money into the food or using their bare hands that has touched so much notes and coins to take food *AHEMtausarpaoAHEM* for you. Gross right.

Anyway. I digress.

Cin and I are going to bake versatile buttermilk muffins later. Luckily this recipe doesn't call for any butter, because we're all out! On a side note, I never knew Ian had a blog until today. Haha.

Experimental process

Since I lost my apple crumble recipe, I decided to experiment today, I can remember the ingredients (flour, oats, apples, cinnamon, sugar, butter) but not the measurements, and temperatures and whatever so I just surfed the net and combined some recipes together. The outcome wasn't that bad, and it smells nice, but the crumble topping wasn't v crumbly/hard.

Math sucked. I hate Ms Toh. She practically semi-yelled at me during the Math exam. Is it my fault I was confused by the instructions? So do I leave my answer in 3 sig. fig. or in 1 dec. place? If I get that question wrong cos of her yelling right, I AM SO GOING TO SUE YOU AND YOUR PENNILESS FACE.

Don't know why, was jittery. And it's getting annoying that you all like, sort of, agh okay wtv I just hope this is exam stress and that I'm imagining things.

Mel is like, damn nice to talk to/bitch with. Serious. Jo's house yesterday; her dad cooked like, so much food for lunch it was more like dinner! Yummy, but filling. And I like the choq- choqu- okay, choq-something and madeleines! I've forgotten how yummy they are! I wouldn' mind trying to bake them, but I don't have a madeleine baking tray or anything, which is just sad.

I love food blogs. So many nice pictures and recipes. I want to bake but we ran out of butter after the crumble thing. ):
