New Year & Resolutions

I know it’s too late to post about New Year resolution but it’s not my fault that MSU has its Mid-Sem exams during New Year season.

So as the title says, I am going to blog about my New Year resolutions. As far as I can remember, I have never had any proper resolutions for the past years, so this year I want to make some proper resolutions and I am going to work to achieve it.

I always have this superstitious mind that I must not reveal my resolutions cause I feel I will not achieve it.

Well I am still sticking to it. Hahahahaha……

But if by end of 2012, I am changed then I can safely say my resolutions are achieved.

Anyway I am ending this entry by a belated NEW YEAR 2012 wishes. HAPPY 2012 people!!! May this year bring more joy, wealth and health!!!

How 2011 Treated Me

Let’s travel back 12 months and see what significant events I went through the past 12 months.

January:

Well it’s a birthday month for me. I kind of enjoyed my birthday although I was still in depression. The special part was I got two cakes from mum and also dad. Thnx Amma and Appa. It was this lucky month that I decided to continue my degree with Bhaeravii. I was comparing some universities and ended up choosing MSU.

February:

It’s a wedding month in my family. I was quite busy preparing for my cousin brother’s wedding. It was a totally awesome event as I enjoyed myself with my cousins there. I cant remember any other significant event in this month.

March:

It was just an ordinary month. Nothing special. I postponed my enrolment in MSU to May (originally it should be March). And this was the month I had to stand firm on my decision to continue my studies and persuaded my dad to accept my decision. I also helped my school to do a booklet for its 50th anniversary.

April:

Well its was a preparation month. Both my sister and I were to head to KL the next month to continue our studies. Mum was helping both of us to prepare as much as we can. Dad was busy arranging the transport and financial issues for us. I was busy looking for a house in Shah Alam.

May:

May was a hectic month. I did tonnes of packing. I was travelling here and there. Had a difficult time looking for a proper accommodation in Shah Alam. All settled, I went for my orientation week and bridging class sessions. That was when I met my two soulmates for BBM. Hahahaha. And also I ‘ponteng’ed the two weeks bridging class and was having a nice soothing holiday back in Penang.

June:

Study month. Yea but I think I did all things except for studying. I mean I attended classes but I wasn’t in the studying mode yet. It was a good month. Got to know my friends better. Had some hung out session with my buddies.

July:

Shall name it as study month two. Yet I did not do any studying. I was still busy getting to know new people and was busy ‘lepak’ing. It was an average month. My parents came down to Shah Alam and fetch me and went to Wangsa Maju to fetch my sister, we whole family went to Ipoh for my cousin’s 21^st birthday celebration. It was a good family gathering.

August:

Truly an enjoyable month for me. Sat for the 1^st mid-term in MSU. I was quite satisfied with my results. Then had a major outing with my darlings to Midvalley. We also organized a surprise party for Sendrew. It turned out as a success with everyone’s help. We also celebrated Nandni’s surprise birthday in Chillis. Other than that, I had a week break for Raya, and I spent the week shopping for Deepavali with my mum. Hehehehe.

September:

A sedate month maybe. Jess, Shirley and I went to LCCT for Starbucks. Hahahaha. Actually we went there to send off Sendrew to India. The travelling to LCCT was a terrifying experience. We also had our very first Tanni Party. Awesome party it was. Totally enjoyed myself with my friends.

October:

Finals month. Had my finals for two long weeks. Guess this was the real study month for me. I revised and did my best. Then went back home for Deepavali. I did a small business, selling homemade cookies. I earned some money. Just enough for me to get a new handphone and some new clothes.

November:

Awesome month. I enjoyed my semester break. Attended cousin brother’s wedding in KL and also cousin sister’s engagement in Ipoh. Enrolled in new semester. I was kind of disappointed withmy first semester results. Hopefully I can get better results in the semester. We also celebrated Jessica’s birthday in a simple way due to some unexpected incident that occurred to me. Other than that, my family send off mum for a month India trip.

December:

Actually I have no words to describe this month because it was such an awful month. I had many unwanted problems from unwanted people. I learnt a very useful lesson in life in a hard way. But despite it I would love to thank Jessica, Shirley and Nandni for being there for me when I needed them. Guess its right to say they are my soulmates. And now I am ending the month cum the year with awesome company; MY FAMILY!

I don’t know if I had more downs than ups or more ups than downs. Overall it was a productive year for me. Also I had a very good chance of getting to know who really cared for me. It was a great year all together. I just hope 2012 will be a better year than 2011.

Some of the best photos of 2011. I only started taking photos after I joined MSU, so I cant find any photos before June. Hehehehe....

And here I am ending this post and year for a new beginning!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!

Mug Cakes

I was blog walking yesterday and stumbled upon a post in a blog about mug cakes. It captured my interest. Since I was too bored, so I planned to try the recipe out.

The initial recipe that I got hold of was of Chocolate Mug Cake and it required egg, and since my mum is not at home, my fridge is practically EMPTY. I had to ask my dad to buy egg for me. So while waiting for my dad I decided to try Vanilla Mug Cake.

I got the recipe from a website. What you need is:

Coffee Mug

Microwave

Flour - 6 Tbs

Sugar - 2 Tbs

Baking Powder - 1/2 Tsp

Salt - 1/8 Tsp

Milk - 4 Tbs

Oil - 1 Tbs

Vanilla Essence - 1/2 Tsp

The methods:

First mix all the dry ingredients in the mug.
Then add the other ingredients and mix them well with a fork.

This is how it looks like after mixing all the ingredients.

Next, put the mug into the microwave oven for 3 minutes.

Its optional to add a topping. For mine, I added broken chocolate bars on top of the cake right after I took it out from the microwave.

The broken chocolate bars.

After adding the chocolate.

Wait for a few minutes after adding the chocolate. Then spread the chocolate on top of the cake and let it cool down. Now its ready to eat.

This was the end result.

Okay, it looks tasty right. It was tasty but some improvements can still be done. I realised, in this recipe, the flour amount is too much. Next time I should reduce the amount of the flour. And I should also add a bit more sugar.

And after eating this cake, I was kind of lazy to do the chocolate version. So I decided I will do it some other time.

Anyway you guys can try it out and let me know how it tastes.
Good Luck! =)

Say Hi Sem 2

Well its been quite some time since I last updated my blog. Its not that I dont have the time, its just that I am too lazy to type. Hahahahaha.....

Well so nothing much happened. I joined new semester. My first semester results did not hit my target, I am dissapointed with myself, but determined to achieve my target this semester. Hopefully I can.

Day 1 of Sem 2

Shirley and me have started our business venture this semester. We are offering Nail Art Service at a cheap rate. So if your are in need of nail art, dont hesitate to contact us.

The day we started our business venture.
Hahahahahahaha

We (Shirley, Nandni and me) planned to celebrate a simple birthday party for Jessica, but some unexpected incident occurred to me and we had to cancel the whole thing. But we managed to get her a card, gift and a piece of cake. Hehehehehehe..... Hmmm sorry Jessica, we will make it up to you. But I think Jess still enjoyed her day with us. Hahahahahahaha......

Top: Jess with her Birthday gift and card.
Bottom: Jess with her Secret Recipe cake.

My mum is in India for a month visit. She is enjoying herself there and I am happy for her. But we, Dad, Bro, Sis, Vishal and me miss her a lot. Its been a while she did not go for any long vacation, so we kind of forgot how it feels when is she not around. Anyway this opportunity makes me realise how gifted I am to have my mum in my life. I really miss her a lot. Cant wait for her to back.

Well another significant thing was, I think I had my first fight, well not really a fight, but kind of fight, (hahahahahahaha) with someone I love. Now it all seems so funny, but at the time I was really sad. But now we have clarified everything and all is settled between us. Just want to let you know, I LOVE YOU and I AM SORRY (I hope you know who you are).

I have also visited a new place, I-City. Well it was not really an interesting place for me, but I had fun with my friends there. We snapped lots of photos, which can be viewed in my Facebook profile.

Love you guys.....

This semester we seemed to snapping lots of photo. Maybe because I got a new phone. Hahahahaha, so action. And we will be snapping more photos because another one of us is going to get a new phone too. So more photos to come. We have also been lepaking a lot lately. And my dear friends are stealing Subway coupons for free burger whenever they get hold of a newspaper. And so we are like eating Subway every week (thats how I had my first Subway). Hahahahahahaha.....

See, like what I say,

we are snapping tonnes of photos

and

we are loitering aroud Shah Alam.
Hahahahahahahahaha....

And I am sad for my darlings cause this semester they have to endure Dr.'s class. It looks like they are facing a difficult time. Be strong dears. I will always support you guys. Soon I will be with you guys facing the same thing, so no worries. Hahahahahahaha..... Now I am laughing, next year June to October, I knowI will be crying..... :'(

Well so this is the summary of my last few weeks. Got to learn how to write summary, will be helpful for my English class. Hahahahahaha......

Handphone Dilemma

I am planning to get a new handphone this week. I still dont know which model to buy. Originally thought of buying Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, but that model is no more being produced.

I am going to pay half and my dad is going to pay half. Last time when my dad and mum got a new handphone for me, I promised myself that it will be the last handphone I am going to buy with my parents money. I wish I can pay the whole amount but unfortunately I cant afford, so my dad has volunteered, well not really, I demanded that my dad pay the other half and he agreed. Hahahahahaha... =D

So now I have two phones in my mind. Xperia Neo V and Xperia Mini Pro.

This is Xperia Neo V

And this is Xperia Mini Pro

I like both phones, but I would really love to own a sideway slide phone. But Xperia Mini Pro comes with only 2GB microSD memory card, where as Xperia Neo V comes with 8GB. So now I am planning to take Xperia Mini Pro and upgrade the memory card to 8GB and if the price is less than Xperia Neo V, I will buy it. If its more that the price of Xperia Neo V, then I am going to buy Xperia Neo V. Lets see what phone I am going to use...... =p

I am very excited about this handphone. Waiting for my dad to go and survey tomorrow. Cant wait to get a new handphane. Partly I am excited because I am paying half for it!! Hehehehehehe.... =)

Nail Art Shopping

Okay, I am dedicating this post for Jessica and Shirley…

I was requested to write this blog post by Jessica. For her benefit la, what else! Hahahahahaha!!! Just kidding Jess…<3

So actually its about what I did last Sunday. I went out with my mum to buy some items in a supermarket nearby my house.

After shopping, I was just doing some window shopping at the stalls outside the supermarket. I came across a stall that sells accessories.

So I with my new found hobby looked for some nail art items. I saw O.P.I. nail colors, its RM15 per bottle. Then there was the smaller version of the same O.P.I. nail colors, its RM2.90 per bottle (3.75ml) and if you take 4 then its only RM10. I couldn’t resist this offer, so bought 4 colors for RM10.

Then there was another shop with offer, buy 1 free 1. So I bought some nail décor items like rhinestones, glitter and the glue. It is RM9 but since its buy 1 free 1, I got 2 packs for RM9.

So here are the photos:

This the comparison of size between the O.P.I nail color that I bought with the Elianto nail color.

These are 4 colors that I bought for RM10.

The nail decor items I bought for 2 @ RM9.

So Jessica and Shirley, do you all want anything? Let me know ASAP. Scared the promo will end. =)
