Cured!

Yeah, baby! My Ixy is all healthy again. Thanks to Canon for fixing my beloved Ixy. The bes thing, I don't even have to pay a single cent for my Ixy's treatment. Furthermore, I can do continuous shoot faster now. I don't know what makes it that way, might be because of the optic lens changed. Oh and I also get the LCD changed, cos the person said it already start to go blurry and still I wasn't required to pay for it. Isn't it great?! Nice!^^

The New Hobby

If you know me really well I guess this might not be a big surprise anymore. But to some, this new hobby of mine might make people go 'what?!' hehehe. And what is this new hobby? Yes! It’s the CUPCAKE baking ^^ It all began when a friend sent me a website selling these luxury gourmet cupcakes. It's called the CCUP. Cute eh...! I wanted to do this for quite sometimes now, only I haven't had the time to do it yet till now. Since I’m still a beginner, I try to learn baking it slowly. First by baking the cake right, then next time when I already got the base nicely then I’ll start to learn to decorate it. My first try I tried to baked the chocolate based cupcake, and I was surprise of how it all turn out. It was pretty good actually. Though it was not all perfect yet, but as we know ‘practice makes perfect’, right? J The next day I tried on the vanilla based cupcake. This one is quite a challenge, cos you got to use more flour than the chocolate one. It makes it tougher to bake. With the outcome of the vanilla based, I guess I still got a long way to go to do decoration. No worries, we just have to bake lots and lots of cupcake don’t we…^^

'waiting patiently in line'

'look how it rises and turn golden brown'

'it rises too much that it looks like a volcano.'

'a bit over the top but I'm happy:D'

Another Generation Born

So, here's something that I'm not too sure about. If your cousin has a son/daughter what do you call your cousin's children? Is it your niece/nephew? Or is it still your cousin? Well anyway for now I might call them my nieces/nephews. Yes, big news came this morning. At around 8am my cousin Johan's wife, Silvy just gave birth to their 1st child, Valerie Audrey Atmadja. She looks so much like her father.

Congratulation to the parents Ko Johan & Ci Silvy

Woohoo!

At last, the craving paid off. Though rain poured heavily and the traffic jam like hell, nothing could stop us from having dinner and a closing dessert of warm chocolate cake. I know, I know... though is not the brownie that I was craving for, but warm, chocolate, spongy something that has similar personality to it, do just fine. Or even REAL FINE! :) Oh my God whoever invented chocolate cake for dessert is a genius.^^ We went to NYDC for a good cake. It's been a long time since I ate a slice of NYDC's heaven. I remember, I love the cake so much that I used to buy a slice of Goldmine Cheesecake everyday after school. Now you know, where's my ducky's butt from :P

'vegetable dinner (beancurn, egg, rice patty with gravy and chilly)'

'set with nut, citrus leaf crackers or to what we call it as Rempeyek'

'head for dessert'

'well it doesn't seems that ugly after you try it'

'chocolate can makes u go crazy'

'craving paid off'

'really good'

'while enjoying cake'

The Craving

It’s been 3 days now that I crave for brownies. The warm chocolate spongy cake always haunts me. I have to get one today, no matter what. I can’t just sit here anymore thinking about it and not indulging to one. Oh my pretty brownies.

The Bad Day

It seems that anything, everything that is happening today is just on the wrong timing or wrong place, JUST WRONG. Is it because I didn't go to church yesterday and I put the guilt on anybody/anything around me? or is it just a bad Monday? Like Garfield says, "I Hate Monday!" Well I never really hate my Mondays, in fact always looking for it. Arghhhh! What's wrong with me... This feeling is killing me. Must get to the bottom of this problem, soon!
