Vent time

Ola,

I'm sorta at boiling point with so many things. Off course doing something wrong pisses me off especially when it's for someone else. I didn't ask for it, you didn't ask me for it, I got pushed into it. All this responsibility is shitty, my younger sister doesn't know the weight but instead lends her awesome little helping hand in making it shittier.

It isn't the little chores that bug me, it is everything that I was forced to take charge of years and years ago that sees this as an opportunity for me to lash out. Do good and no one cares, do bad and get labeled shithole of the nation, unreliable and uncapable. Even so, I am still determined to fix and hopefully prevail at my given tasks. After all I am related to everyone of them...

Clearly I have lost the mood to 'photo' blog this two months. Hopefully it kicks back in again. But at the mean time I'll stick with words. If you haven't already know, I'm on holiday! and am thoroughly enjoying the weight that has been temporary lifted off my back. :)

As you can see from my previous posts I've been cooking. Cooking loads. lol. Preparing for some housewife marathon, nah I actually find it fun. I get to channel all my OCD energy into my cooking. http://twitpic.com/photos/maxieng

Am beginning to catch up on some books that I missed out on reading and wanted to read. I'm 'apartment hoping' from one friend's place to another lol as everyone are slowly flying back home one by one. As for those who are staying back might go for a field trip to Great Ocean road maybe?

My sister has got a new house which created a confusing dilemma for me. ... =_=. Don't want to talk about it. But I would prefer to stay at the family house. ooooh! I told my mom that I would be really bored at Malaysia this year cause everyones studying at KL, so she suggested that ges and I go to Hokkaido. Sounds cool, hotsprings, fish market, beer factory, 8days. Most probably going but I'm a weeeeeee bit lazy and think it might waste the days at Malaysia. But I'll be bored anyways.

So yeah that's it for now.

Michael Crab


So we went for Michael's birthday dinner at boxhill. Being the michael that he is, we ate very well. Peking duck, crabs, meatz, good stuff oh and cake. There was around 18 of us.


Michael wont be studying with us anymore, he will be helping his mom with her business here. Will miss him and his car. lol :D but mostly him, coz he's so funnay.


Haha look, I'm as tall as the boys. They even said I was suddenly so tall. Wooh intimidation.


And we thought this day would never come when Michael wears slippers and maxie wears heels. Very strange day. haha because I always even during winter I will wear my slippers coz they're comfy.


Wesley made me take a picture with big bird.

Corporate Bowling @ Strike


Got invited to my elder sisters corporate event, bowling at Strike bowling bar at chapel street. Got to eat free food. To my surprise the finger food was quite good, mini burgers, prosciutto wrapped in asparagus, fish and chips and canapes were some of them that I remembered. Oh drinks were unlimited as well. Good stuff.


Retro shoes, velcro straps <3. You know I don't like bowling, just one of those sports I don't find entertaining. Still trying to figure out.


Well I think this is the third time that I've bowled ever. And was the first time I got a strike, partly due to sibling rivalry. Wanted to win my elder sis, which I did yay me. muaha.

Fudge


After my presentation, met up with Nick to make this christmas brownie fudge thing. After baking had to wait till it cools down completely and refrigerate it for another 4 hours. Manh I hate food that requires waiting.


Included raspberries if you can see. Nick didn't like it and went added pecans. But to be honest the roasted pecans tasted good.


Went to Pacific house to load up on oily meatz then watched This Is It. fatty day fatty fay. cardiac arrest.

Custard Strawberry Trifles


So custard is made primarily of egg yolks.


There are two ways of making custard that is by baking or stirring. I decided to stand and stir my life away for 15 minutes. Decided to make custard because 1. I wanted to make it from scratch, 2. My friend mentioned about it the other day, 3. Reason to make it for my sisters birthday.


The strawberry trifles are made with strawberries, sponge fingers and custard.


Blend strawberries till smooth and mix them with the sponge fingers then layer the mixture with custard. Garnish with strawberry slices on top to make it look better which I haven't.


yum, was not bad. Made about 6 cups. Gave two to friend.

Blondies


So I decided to bake the other day. Well it wasn't a spur of the moment sort of thing. I actually wanted to bake or at least cook something for about a week already but couldn't because I was bombarded with tests and presentations.

I still have one final exam and presentation next week. Then freeeeeeeeeeeee.


Brownies without the brown, they're called blondies. Has peanut butter, pecans and white choco.

When you let something go to your head, you make such a fool of yourself that you don't even realize it. When you don't accept or see the advice people give, you only end up losing them.

Cake

I love cakes. I'm serious.
My first ever birthday post.
with pictures*


So yes, the big 2 0. It feels different to say that you're 20 when you're 19 than to say it when you're actually 20. You suddenly feel this certain responsibility to act a certain way and dress a certain way, well at least I think the community expects us to. But at the state we're currently living in I think no one gives a damn anymore.


Gessie got me this little Brunetti cake on the eve of my birthday. The reason that there's two little candles and one big '0' is because she couldn't find the '2' at the supermarket. She's the best.


Do you know that this is my first ever birthday blog post. The 5 years that I've been blogging I always decide not the blog about my birthday. don't know why o_o.


1st cake from Brunetti, Black Forest. Yummy.



Cake 2. Highlight of my night, Lindt cake from parents.


Chocolat Cerise

Our Black Forest Cake is crafted using the perfect balance of Kirsch infused cherries, rich dark chocolate cake & the sweetness of vanilla cream all encased by a dark chocolate glaze & finished with perfect Lindt chocolate curls.



Cake 3. Thank you Tony! Was bought for the night we went out for group dinner.


Taro cake, good, there's still some in the fridge. n_n


And lastly, Lindt chocolates that stingy Wesley gave. Was shocked and equally grateful that he went and spent money hehe very sweet. Tight pride!

Stalked


So we studied together but in our own separate booths and suddenly I felt something hit me. It was a receipt folded many times to form a small rectangle. I was pissed and went, "Wtfack, who threw the paper at me?". After finding out that Wesley was responsible I unfolded it only to find this written on it. zzz. If only you understand.

Ballarat


So I went to Ballarat during the what? 3 days off that I had after my exams. It was actually suggested by my friend to get away for a night, get away from the city, away from Melbourne. So it was not so much sightseeing and whatever tourists do. It was purely to relax and bum in the hotel room.


It was colder than Melbourne, 5degrees. Manh I remember how stressed I was to end up here. The finals really made me stressed out, I felt I did so bad during the exams and if I failed 2 subjects I couldn't qualify for the Summer Term. So to be just walking around the town was a breath of fresh air for me, calm :).


Stayed at Heritage on Lydiard Street, got the $190 room? got bunked up to the executive suite when we got there wohoo. Fancy.


Check out ma white shoe-sies. Manly.


Hallway.


People who decided to ruin my picture. -.-.


End result.


Long black anywhere, everywhere.





Managed to catch a movie at their old skool cinema.


Train station. I like.


To be honest, the trip I was only looking forward to watching the tv and complementary movies that came together with it. I was stuck watching Nickalodeon and Discovery Travel and Living. haha. Not to mention room service. It was a good runaway from the real world.
