Backup!

Haha.. I spent most of the day creating recovery disk (1 set -- initial setting), install everything I want then create backup disk. Lol.. Yes I really need the backup... 'cos before I create the backup.. I actually configure until the DVD drive cannot use.. Such that ermm heng hor, Windows have restore point and I was constantly installing stuff.. haha.. So I'm not too sure what config went nuts 'cos I just restore and start again loh.. It's just day 2 nia.. I spoiled the software again lol.. Think maybe I should just not try to be too funny about my config ba.. Then I try to play the game, it seems like my pointer settings will affect the game play if I use pointer. A bit ma fan.. So maybe I should just use mouse for it ba. And something wrong about the map also.. I can see the floor.. yes.. But the pic of the mini and big map for one of the quest cannot be displayed. Now trying to find direct X to install. Hopefully it helps ba. At least most of the stuff is done le.

New Tablet

Hmm was thinking of not buying a laptop on fri before 8pm. Yes.. it's just before 8pm nia.. 'cos hor.. after that my friends told me that they got netbooks, hmm 2 got Lenovo S10 with 3 yrs warranty and 2GB ram ($788), and 1 got MSI Wind, 1 yr warranty and 2GB ram ($729). I felt a bit tempted so I ask and found out that there's no more ermm pink MSI Wind le. I thought maybe S10 looks nice too.. and got pink one but needs additional $20 la. Well.. sounds quite ok ba. But then before I reached Expo today, one of my friend that got the S10 one, told me that S10 watch high resolution video locally a bit lag not sure what's wrong. But MSI Wind seems to be working find. But I still feel a bit sian 'cos the rating is just ok nia haha.. Somemore the game I wanted to play with it needs to set certain config one. so I wonder Maple or other games can play or not.. In the end, when I finally reached Expo!! The 1st stall was Toshiba haha.. So I nv get to go further inside except

SengKang Pool

I think the best thing about living in Sengkang is the swimming pool le.. Today I finally went there with my friend. Got normal deep pool, sheltered 1.2m deep big pool, medium pool, kids pool, slides and jacuzzi. The only bad thing is that .. the shower water not very good. A bit too save water le ba.. Actually, like that will waster more ba.. 'cos not enough power and volume, hard to bath haha..

Too much games

Haha... think I've been playing too much online games recently ba. Yes.. I'm playing game for the entire weekend lol.. Sounds so no life haha.. Ended up didn't bake the onion bread and hardly on msn or post anything here le. I wonder if I'll really go and buy my dream pink lappy soon.

Just another day

Well spent most of the time watching shows and reading my new books. Finished reading the one about how to dress. My idea is the book was ok loh. haha.. I was a bit curious, so I actually went to suntec and read finished that $45 book (The body shape bible) that I thought was much more interesting. Well, it actually wasn't ba. Just the part about how to recycle old clothes to change their style and wear them in a better way. A few pics of them nia haha.. Major lessons learn are just about how to match colors (the way they match seems ok but then when u just see the color itself, it really looks weird) and about there's no such thing as 1 bag for all occasions haha.. Well.. ermm this is what I always like to do ba. But then I got 2 main bags.. haha.. One for gym/exercise, one for work. Sometimes a few more when I dress more casual ba. But then the thing is. It's not just formal or not formal it's about how it matches the clothes. Think it's just too tough ba.. I dun

Book Fair

Went to book fair today and bought 3 books. The digital photo artist book originally cost $32++ with 20% discount was supposed to be $25++ but then due to human error, they labelled the entire stack as $5. So I thought it's really $5 and take it. Of course, it's tagged wrongly, so that sales person went to check why is it tagged as $5. After a very long time.. I think maybe 15mins or more ba.. the next guy also got strucked at the cashier 'cos his maths exam solutions was a separated out copy that does not includes the qn and it is not sold separately. After that guy left, my book is not back yet. When it finally came back, they confirmed that it's a mistake in tagging the price. So I walked away disappointedly then one of them called me back and said that since is their fault and I waited so long, they will honour their price and sell it to me @ $5 hee.. So... I got my book haha.. It's an interesting book and super value for money, especially for me hee.. The main

Movie instead of GYM

Well.. Wanted to go gym yesterday. But in the end, ended up going for movie with B and her lg. 'Cos I took a ride to PS so that I can reach the gym faster but in the end it nv reach it after all haha... Think I'm super cannot make it loh. Always say wanted to go gym but always ended up elsewhere. Doesn't matter la.. The dinner was at a Jap restaurant again. Actually lunch is jap, dinner also jap haha.. But dun exactly mind 'cos I wanted to eat the paper steam boat ma.. but then they made me wait very long for my food I very sian.. After B and her lg finished their food, my steamboat is not here yet. So we keep asking why is it so? they said that it was sent to the wrong place. So I need to wait a while more. Then, they offered us 10% discount. So I ask A, UOB also got 10% discount leh. What's the point in having just 10%? Then he said maybe it's 20% 'cos 10% + 10% is 20% ma.. of course no such thing la.. but managed to get 15% discount in the end haha.. bett

Diarrhea

Had diarrhea since yesterday, still wondering what exactly went wrong 'cos the food I eat seems ok ma. Now a bit better le.. After the diarrhea stopped liao, it's just left with pain that happens intermittently. Now, my stomach just feel a bit confused ba. Or maybe it's a signal problem. 'Cos I also can't tell if I'm full or hungry now. Hope I get well soon ba, and praying that I dun get fever.

Baking Today

Well today, we finally learnt the ice-cream baking process. Sounds confusing and tough.. needs to use that whipping cream, which by hand, I whipped till the cream and liquid got separated lol.. So maybe the next time i try whipping it I should get the cream frozen 1st ba.. then whip a while put back to freeze more haha.. if not will need the put ice mtd.. but like that the bowl so cold how to whip? Later my leg freeze how? haha.. Since it needs 2 days to freeze.. ermm got to collect the ice-cream sample next week.. And it's lapis next week :D Found out that the Sugaree Cake is not what I expected it to be.. I thought it's those colorful ones at pasamalam but it wasn't leh.. a bit disappointed though.

Green Seminar

Hmm.. Went for the green seminar today. Some parts boring some parts interesting. The part on the planting of trees and the zero energy building is the most interesting ba I guess. It reminds me of the article of this family last that sells back so much electricity to the PUB that their net PUB bills is quite little (think is around $50 a mth or so forgot the exact amount haha.. should be a mth ba. If is a yr then is super kua zhang le) 'cos the electricity managed to offset their water bills etc.. I was wondering if I should go and plant a tree haha.. Cost about $200 per tree for less than 10 trees. 10 - 49 trees is about $150 per tree. > 50 trees is $100 per tree. Of course I'm looking at planting just one tree ba. Since got tax rebates one and can help the environment so sounds not bad ma haha.. Let me think about it somemore ba. :D But then.. I better off my comp when I go home ba to save more power haha.. and best is dun do too much OT 'cos it waste power haha..

Shopping with mama..

Today 难得 I decided not to do any more OT haha.. Planned to go gym but then my mama jio shopping at AMK hub. So bo bian go and join her. Ended up buying 3 pants - 1 for mama, 2 for me. Since mama says she will alter it for me, so now I no need to go and order pants le... 'cos mama will just alter the new pants to make it fit better haha.. same ba i guess. But the design is just as "auntie" according to mama.. Haiz, since those not so auntie ones all quite fitting and irritates my skin, bo bian also ma. haha..

So much to do.. and so little time.

Nowadays, I'm starting to hate lunch time.. or even the idea of eating lunch. Last time we hardly eat at the canteen. Not to say that the food wasn't good. The thing is.. it's really very sian to eat canteen food loh.. although it's cheap but there's nothing much that i like there. Or perhaps I can say nothing that i like there haha. Now, due to the amount of work we need to do. Everyone is starting to da bao from the canteen then eat in the office. So now I felt so stucked and there's nothing much to look forward to every week day. It's really sad that there's also so much to do and so little time. So in the end, most of the time I'm working. So sian.. After all, the amount of things to be done is always increasing. Haiz.. When one thing ends, it's the beginning of another. It's really tiring.

Coconut Cake and Crown Sponge Cake

Teacher making coconut cake in progress.. Arranging dough Output Crown sponge cake With cream I wonder when then I can make such a nice cream cake...

Egg Cake

Wanted to make Tiramisu with the teacher given recipe for the cream part and my colleague given recipe for the cake part. So that I no need to bake cake for it and make my life easier. Sadly, I beat the whipping cream too much haha.. It solidify and become quite solid and watery.. haiz.. So Bo bian throw that part away and try to use egg white substitute. After beating the egg white and sugar to fluffy state. I realized that my cheese cream has gone bad due to bad storage (ermm it should be freezed instead). So in the end.. I ask my bro go and find some recipe for the egg so that I dun waste it.. So I added the egg yolk and beat them together then added self raising flour.. Seems ok le but then... This is the state of that cake 1 min after it left the oven. We tried the take a stick to poke mtd to test and see if it's done.. It wasn't ok.. Within 5 mins it sink back and become flat lol.. The only entertainment of the process is that ... It's funny seeing that abnormal
