it's been a while since i've posted. sorry folks. nothing much has been happening, just the usual mundane things that i thought i should not bore you to tears with. so here're some not so boring things i'd "saved up" during this time.
i received a call yesterday morning that delivered some good news (finally!), and i'm feeling a bit excited about it. can't really say what it is about here, cos this is an open blog, and i don't want some people to know... but i sure hope things would turn out fine.
christmas is in less than 1 month's time! have you guys been busy buying presents? orchard road should have lit up by now right? the streets here in town have also been decorated with colourful lights. obviously not as lavish as those we have at home, but it is still nice to see christmas trees and lights all around. ah... the magic of christmas. i've been busy sourcing for ingredients for a christmas bake fest. decided to bake some cookies for friends here as christmas pressies so i'm currently sourcing for some nice little containers. i'm swinging between a raisin-peanut-butter-concoction and the brownie cookies. maybe i'll do both. ha. and yuling (now a.k.a. elaine) i tried baking a cheesecake with the water bath method. less cracking definitely. thanks!
i've been trying to keep up with everyone through facebook. so many of my colleagues have gone on it, it's just amazing. some bloody applications refuse to behave e.g. i lost my "farnie" fluffpet from my profile, irritating the hell out of me sometimes, but it's bearable i guess. YAY to FACEBOOK! if you don't have an account yet, please sign up like the rest of us suckers with nothing better to do, so we can pry into your personal life. oh and if alice and rodney are reading this, pls don't insist on having a question mark for a face. come on.... post a proper photo already!
oh, and congratulations to the new mummies! there's jane, michelle ph, beekay and most recently HL. hope your babies bring much joy to your homes!
hao-e and i have been playing this game of late. it's kinda like charades... except we do it in church... so it's been christened church charades. such creativity. genius. anyway, we would act out some favourite food from home and start guessing what it is. hao-e seems quite bent on performing his otak-otak and nasi lemak week after week. i guess he really misses those. i tend to miss the higher end stuff like drunken prawns and chilli crab. mouth-watering, mind-blowing, convulsion-causing good food. can't wait to get back.
