2.


My dad called my yesterday a 'bad day'. Some events which constituted said 'bad day' involved an incident that involved many tears, a high percentage of danger to my precious baby — the scarf I've toiled over for the past week, and a malicious outburst at my poor brother for his wrong doing. In addition to this, I stacked it hard at work in the kitchen on the tiled floor, stupidly running to turn off the sink tap, which was overflowing at the time. This involved complete saturation of my entire uniform, being a white button up shirt and black pants, as well as my bright green bonds underwear, with practically no time to recover — not that we were particularly busy, but more so because customers trickled in at a rate that left no time for me time.

So, what kept me happy?

Definitely not the bad dreams I keep encountering the past four nights (and counting), or the 'bad day'. It was the memories of the night before, and more so, my family for their love and support, as evident with the scarf. They know how much this scarf, and making it, means to me, and do everything they possibly can to help.

It not only applies to the scarf, but my life and what's important to me in general, as evident in a conversation with my dad last night. He told me that he's trying not to use my new camera too much, and that we should all make sure we keep it safe, (since my last two cameras were pinched at work) because this one has more than monetary value. This one can not be replaced.

With such amazing people in my life, how can I call any day a bad day?

P.S. I finished the scarf today, but I'll be a tease and post photos tomorrow.

The rules are that for 8 days you have to post something that made you happy that day. Tag 8 people to do the same.

I tag... YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to know what makes you happy~!!!

1. Tonight made me happy! Firepig and Leo dancing crazily, an old man dancing crazily before thanking us and leaving. Happy people. Dancing people. Clinking glasses with Leo, and then with Firepig numerous times. Sibling rivalry! Wine makes me happy. Putting pig on to Firepig's key chain. Being told we're wonderful! Watching Sai Or and Yu Hei's girlfriend racing to set tables. Balloon fights with Leo. Laughing at Leo smashing an entire tray full of glasses! Play choking Firepig with a towel. Feeling like I belong. In addition to having an insane amount of fun!

Here's hoping for Tuesday.

I'm going to miss you, you know?

Ugly is the new beautiful.
Haven't you heard?

I had a night out last Wednesday to see [livejournal.com profile] feeyona's movie, film noir style~
It involved attemping snooker in a seedy place full of males, attempting to find the closed Mamak, checking out Bryant's funky hat at Norita, sneaking around my old Writing Style and Structure lecture hall in a darkened state, eating at a tacky below par Chinese restaurant (and missing my daddy's food), trying to decipher wtf QQ in drink form is, and tequila shots (amongst other things) and a second dinner at my restaurant, ending with [livejournal.com profile] 0_osez & I rocking out to F4 (yes, it's possible) on bar stools.

P.S. [livejournal.com profile] seasonstocking!! Fill mine!! Get yours!!

Who knew pigs could bake?


Banana & Walnut Cake ala Firepig


This was meant to be an early birthday cake for tomorrow's small party for my mum and our neighbour, Kim, who's birthday is in close proximity to my mum's. However, plans went somewhat awry, what with Firepig deciding to become a piece of machinery and showing off his culinary skills, and ended with us demolishing the lovely cake.

The Evidence + more )

Now I'm out for the count. It's approaching 2am, fast, but I've promised [livejournal.com profile] salgo that I'll update at least two times a week, so you'll hear from me more regularly, albeit I'm still on semi-hiatus. Three weeks and four assignments... I'll be alright if the Australian dollar rises ;P
