As promised...

Hey...My apologies for the delay in posting up the pictures. I was away and did not have Internet connection there. So here you go... :)

Cuppy Cakes...

It has been ages since I last updated my blog. I just didn't have anything to write about (actually I did but never came around to do so...hahaha). Anyways, life is good. Am heading to Penang in a couple of hours (yay! food!) so I am pretty excited about that. Still searching for my 'dream' job (where is my fairy godmother??). Been applying to lots of potential places. Hopefully I'll get some calls soon (hoping and wishing real hard).

I've always been curious as to how some people come up with great looking cup cakes. So on Thursday after yet another fun filled day (not :P) I decided to bake. Baking the cup cakes were not hard but I've always wanted to see whether I could actually decorate the cup cakes and actually turn out good. So I googled how to decorate cup cakes and discovered that the secret to all those pretty looking cup cakes is fondant icing (a.k.a. baker's playdoh). Aaaaah... I was so glad I finally discovered that. Yay! So I read a couple of websites and after about 1/2 hour I pretty much knew what to do. So off I went to the store to get all my baking needs. It was fun baking again (not that I was much of a baker to begin with). I always find cooking/baking very therapeutic and fun.

After baking the cupcakes came the fun part of decorating them. It was kinda nerve wrecking because I did not know what to expect and whether I would succeed or fail miserably. Mama was in the kitchen while I was starting the process of decorating and was intrigued by the whole thing. Initially she just wanted to see how it was done but then ended up decorating all the cupcakes with me. I must admit it was tons of fun especially to have mama do it with me. She enjoyed it too! Here are some pictures of our masterpiece! hehehhe... Doesn't taste too bad too.. Yay...Mission accomplished...

Opppsss...Just realized that my cousin is sleeping my room. My camera's in there. Guess I'd have to load the picture tomorrow ;)

Jakarta and Bali Pictures

I was in Jakarta from the 18 till 21 of February. I was there with my parents and 4 of their friends. After that we flew to Bali and stayed there till the 24th of February. Jakarta was ok, but I will never go there again. It was a good experience to see it at least once. Bali was great. Tons of tourist (even though it was the low season). I can't imagine it during peak season. I pictured Bali to have clean beaches with crystal clear water. To my disappointment this was not the case. I guess nowadays it is hard to find such beaches. You'd have to go to the middle of nowhere for that. We were lucky to be in Bali at that time because there were tons of rituals that were being performed leading to the Balinese Hindu new year called 'Nyepi'. All in all, Bali was great and the people were so so polite. They smile a lot too... :) More to come of Penang and Singapore....ciao...

Home sweet home...

It has been almost a month since I got back from US. I landed at KLIA on March 7 in case some of you were wondering about my whereabouts. It has been a crazy few weeks though and I have not had a chance to actually just sit down and catch a breath. I was in Jakarta, Bali and Singapore with my parents and a few of their friends. It was my first time to all these places and each place was unique. I will blog about this soon hopefully. Haaaa... I promised to blog about Disney World and till this day have not done so. My apologies people. Hopefully I will one day (better late than never right?). All in all I enjoyed my trip very very much. My favourite place would have to be Singapore and Bali. Jakarta has nothing much to offer and I would never go there again on a vacation. It is kind a place where you go once and that is all you need. Unlike Bali and Singapore where you can visit a couple of times. Shopaholics like myself would die in excitement in Singapore where shopping is in abundance. Man, you can literally shop till you drop here. Special note: Maini S and A, imagine if the 3 of us went to Singapore... Hahhahaha.... Habis kedai kena borong! hehehhe....

Wow...

I can't believe that my road trip in the US is about to end soon. Real soon. I didn't realise that I will be flying back home on March 5 and arriving KLIA on March 7. Wow...This would be my last weekend spent here. I am going to miss some very special people that I have had the pleasure and honor to meet. I am going to miss them all very very much. This past 2 years have been a great learning experience for me. If I had to do it all over again, I would...

Disney World

I was away from the 22 to the 26 of January in Orlando, Florida. Never in my wildest dreams that I imagined that I would ever step foot at Disney World, but I did! So now I can check that off my 'Things to do before I die' list. It was a great time and I am happy that I managed to spend this magical time with Itos :) We were a great team! wohoo!! Will upload pictures and write about our adventure soon! Tunggu.......

My addiction...

I have a problem... I know I should kick this bad habit of mine but I just can't help myself. I have no willpower or maybe perhaps it is too good an indulgence that I refuse to quit. Hmmm... You see, I am addicted to this sinfully delicious beverage called Caramel Frappucino and also to the many items on the McDonald's menu namely the fries, filet-o-fish, vanilla iced coffee, and the Egg McMuffin.

Thank God these will be readily available to me in Malaysia. Imagine life without it... muhahhahaha...
