What a joke.

Guess what, I made brownies instead of cookies. -.- I guess the problem lies in the ratio of the flour and butter. I guess I had too little flour. But some how, it tasted better than the brownies I made with Lai Man before. LOL Brother said it was "quite nice". AMAZING eh? He actually said nice.
Went to school for Lit presentation. It was PATHETIC I should say. The parents left even before we've finished the presentation. What a joke.
Weather is super warm today. I guess we can't do any thing about it. Thanks to those countries who are contributing to the green house gases? Maybe. Every one's involved. You know..
Going to the dentist this evening. Hopefully things will go well. I HOPE that the orthodontist wouldn't end up writing a letter of recommendation for me to see a orthodontist in NDC -.- AGAIN. Oh please, I'm sick of this.
Expectations = stabbing yourself hard in your heart. LOL maybe.
Hope it isn't just another story

Managed to change the time slot for dental appointment... Wonder if mum would REALLY accompany me to the orthodontist. I mean, like, though she DID accompany me to the dentist LAST TIME, she wasn't serious about getting me braces.( Can't really express the reason) Yeah, but what ever..
Amazingly, I went to dance today despite many many many thoughts of skipping dance the night before :P Was quite fun actually. I said " LONG TIME NO SEE" to many people. In fact, they said that to me. Ha ha!
Baked an orange chiffon cake yesterday. It turned out good despite the fact that I didn't have baking powder where I substitute with cream of tartar, corn flour and baking soda. BUT, I only added a TEASPOON of the mixture when the recipe called for 1 tablespoon -.- It could have rose even higher. LOL
I can't bake today due to the fact that I'M LEFT WITH NO EGGS and baking powder. STUPID SPONGE CAKE MIX! It sucked. My cake didn't cook well, didn't rise well. Try not to use cake mix.
Maybe I'll get Joanne to join me the next time I bake cheese cake....
RAINY DAY!

Oh yes, it rained the whole day.
Went to school for Lit rehearsal. A new member in our group? Zheng Yu from 2BN I think. Had no choice because Justin was absent.
Oh no.. there's dance tomorrow T_T . DREAD IT.
Today, I made chocolate cookies ( which turned out good just that it could have been better if I used caster sugar instead o0f granulated) and "fairings"( they sucked. It tasted so bitter. Guess I added too much spice!)
I really wanna make gingerbread cookies!!!
DENTAL APPOINTMENT 2 DAYS AGO....
I had my fractured tooth patched up. $50 for a tooth!? What's more its a milk tooth!!! Wonder if it will be plucked out when I get braces. ( hopefully?) Next dental appointment with an orthodontist on Saturday. I'm gonna rush there right after my Lit performance. YES I AM.
I can't wait for Christmas...
tomorrow

Baked AGAIN. Lai Man liked my cheesecake! So it tastes better when it is refrigerated long enough. We baked pre-mixed muffins. They tasted good.
Managed to borrow 2 recipe books. :D Gonna try lemon tart soon.
Have to save up! I'm spending too much these days.
READ MORE BOOKS.
To the dentist tomorrow.
FATS.

I've been baking and eating and baking and eating, WITHOUT exercise. If this continues, you won't be able to recognize me the next time you see me. Therefore, I have decided to head to the gym tomorrow morning to do a 45minute workout! SET!
There was no design class this morning due to some miscommunication.
Went to the market, then to Phoon Huat to get baking equipments. Before that, Mum and I went to Auntie Nancy's place. Had some fun there. Mum took pictures ( LOL ).
Bought a springform pan! It's super cool. $18.10 for cream cheese and sour cream! Oh My God. I can finally understand why cheesecakes are expensive. I attempted Newyork Cheesecake this evening. Its still sitting in the oven. ( Hope it turns out good tomorrow)
Meeting Lai Man again tomorrow. LOLS baking?
Seriously, I thought I heard yangyan lao shi mentioned that there would be chinese remedial tomorrow. Well, who cares? It's holiday!
Expectations

It seems funny to me, the way I felt after I got back my results. I should be happy that it is not bad, but some how I feel disappointed because I knew it wasn't enough. Ugh...
Baking was fun with Lai Man around. She taught me how to make Brownies! We went to E! Hub, bought useless things again :P Had Subway to lunch. The Brownies turned out quite dry. Maybe its because of the chocolate. Shall try a different brand the next time. One thing I know about her today - She hates bitter stuff. LOLS ( But why do you like gui ling gao? o.o)
Had fun baking recently. Seems like a healthier habit compared to surfing the net all day long.
More cards to make :D
Shopping at Simei

Went to Eastpoint to get ingredients for baking! I bought butter flavoured shortening, flour, nutmeg and eggs. I carried those 30 eggs home! (wow)
Started baking " oat cookies". Those sucked with the butter flavoured shortening. Its too artificial! Real butter tastes better. Felt like throwing up after eating them. In fact, the cookies I baked 2 days ago were perfect. ( Just that I could have added more oats)
I can feel my blood sugar rising!! I've been eating too many sugary food these days. Bake, eat , bake, eat.
Sometimes baking makes me happy :D The best way to kill time too!
The next thing I'm gonna bake, Cheesecake. Gonna do it on Saturday if possible.
Today is the start of the selection of subject combinations...
Honestly, artificial flavours suck.
