Wholehearted and Staying!

I just got the letter of offer from UTM. It turns out my campus is in Kuala Lumpur not Johor...

Sigh. I'm relieved for some reason...
Nothing much to update now...

I went to help out during the Paralympiad Malaysia Swimming meet for the past two days. I was under the prize-giving section. The athletes have either physical short-comings or are mentally challenged. Normally, after a specific number of events, we must search for the winners and get them ready for the ceremony. They were all very nice really. I talked more to the Sarawakians cause they got most of the medals, so, I spent more them with them compared to the other states.

I've seen a man with only one leg do a 38 sec 50 meters breaststoke. I was just so amazed on their ability to do it all. There were also a few blind swimmers there and they can swim straighter than normal swimmers; including me.

I know some of them more than others. Jamery Siga, Fam Dominic, Fraidden, Arman, Douglas, Kelly, Marina... These are just a few of the great swimmers who won their respective events and even broke some Asia records.

It was just a mind-opening experience. Except for the part where I feel asleep even after drinking 3 cups of coffee. I need stronger caffeine :3 *scoots of to get daily dose*

My future...

Well, since last Friday, I found out I was offered a place in IPTA in UTM, Skudai, Johor to do Diploma in Property Management. It will comence at about 29th of June I think...

I'm 80% probably going for it unless I get Matriculation. I did a rayuan case.

But even so, both IPTA and Matriculation requires me to study outside of Selangor.

OMG! I'm gonna miss my family and friends so so so much!!!

Yay for Cookies!!! :D




The 1st of May, Labour Day to most people, a day to relax and just sit down and catch their breath from the fast lane. For me, it was a great time to spend time with family and friends, the like.

I woke up late, mostly due to my water polo training the night before. I went to the MPH book sales in MBPJ Sports Complex to search for some books.

My list:
- PS, I Love You by Cecelia Ahern
- Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
- Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson
- Grotesque by Natsuo Kirino
- Every Boy Has One by Meg Cabot

But I didn't manage to find any of them... So sad. But I'm going again soon since that day got so many people... And I spend too much time there until I became late for baking at Kar Lai's house! OH NOEZ! :O

ZOOOOOOOOOM to Kar Lai's house! (Superman style.. Lol XD)

Yu Liang and Jared were already there.

When I came was about 2.30 pm, and as I stepped into the house, the egg beater started to malfunction. I think it likes me! XD Lol... Seriously, the machine just made noise and can't function after that. (Me thinks its me fault :P)

So we had to stir it manually, mostly Yu Liang and Jared did the stirring. Then, like usual, egg, butter, flour, cocoa powder, sodium bicarbonate, choco chips, walnuts and etc.

We did experiment first:

- Experiment I, melted like water, wait water is already melted @__@. Theory: Not enough flour
- Experiment II, also melted. Theory: Still not enough flour
- Experiment III, I think you all know la. Theory: Refer to the theory above Exp II.

So in conclusion: Add more flour. XD

So okay, we added so much until the dough also very hard...
We each brought back a bunch of cookies. The final results were simply delicious. (Refer to the images at the top). I'm drooling while typing this thingy XD.

My lil sister and brother became the food critics when I brought it home.

Critics:

My sis: Disgustingly good! (Me: Uh, is that a good thing? My sis: Lol, of course la!)
My bro: Che che, next time bring back more.

We seriously should open a cookie stall. One day we might be even famous than Famous Amos!
(Famous Kar Lai, Famous Yu Liang, Famous Jared and Famous Amie)

It was lots of fun! I seriously look forward to more baking lessons! ;P

And, yes, Yu Liang, I still remember the kongsi kerusi incident. XD Who can forget?
Not to mention my famous spotlight time of being the so-called 5 Arif Savior of the Adam-Faiz fight and also self-proclaimed herself as 'SICK'!

Anyways, I wil forever treasure this memory...

Thank you so much for the fun day!!!

That's all I have to report for now.

Good night! CiaozZ!!! :D
