阿Ger's Bigfish Life

chinese new year is coming soon. there is just so many things to do.

i am a bit worried, because the time to negotiate starts all over again. sometimes i wonder why i have to do this every year? i am quite tired of this.

so anyway... i was in the baking mood recently... i wanted to have a go at making pineapple tarts.
so i did...
since it was my first try at making pineapple tart, i decided to test with a smaller batch.

prepared the pineapple tart filling yesterday night, and so far so good. looks moderately decent.

will find another day to make the pastry portion and i am done.

and it seems everyone else is also making pineapple tart!
dropped by phoon huat just now, and the queue was horrendous!
while making my way to the end of the queue, i briefly glanced into every other customer's basket and guess what!
almost all of them had butter and pre-made pineapple tart filling in their baskets...

goodness!

need to make a trip to chinatown soon... need to buy my annual door decoration for the year of the tiger...

i'm dedicating this to myself.

something last minute so something delayed.
something delighting, something amusing, something fun then something rushed.
something straining, something worried but something accomplished!
something proud and something unexpected.

something arranged or... not?
something confirmed, something short, erm... something best not mentioned.
something clear and precise, something crazy and something acknowledged. :'- S

something familiar.
something drove off leaving something parallel.
something handsome, something ordered, something ready, then something eaten.
something messy, something satisfying :- D, something of mine being memorized. :- O

something planned, something changed.
something done at home.
something with special guest, something received, something clipped on hair.

something traveled, something very urgent, something chatted.
something about being tired, something about getting late...
something dangerously avoided X- O, something to learn from and remember
something feeling jelly-like and weak...

something...

away... from here~~~

yup, that's right. i am going on a cruise soon.

just a short getaway with two of my good female friends. while both of the ladies are cruise virgins... me here, have been on star cruise trips for no less than 3 times.

however, this time we will be staying at the ocean view with balcony rooms. cool eh?? have balcony leh. and on top of the free buffet meals, we will be having $200 of dining credits. where we can spend on either ala carte food or drinks! hmm...

we'll be dropping by penang and phuket, so there'll be some shopping and eating. it's pretty exciting actually!

AND OH YAH!!! wishing myself a happy 2 years driving anniversary!!! Woot!!

after 2 years of driving the yaris!! *sniggers*
i am proud to announce that i am no longer a road hazard!! i am now a very asshole-ish singaporean driver! just like every other driver you see on the road. we are all assholes, one point in time or another.

yesterday i was @^#&@@*($&(!!#*$&@ a black mazda car loh. so anyway... even though i maybe more asshole-ish, i never horn others for no reason. in fact, i've only horned... for less than 5 times. hee... i no no horny de. kekeke...

i drive a manual car called yaris. my poor yaris is in a fairly bad condition. she has a dent on the front bumper, and scratches everywhere. and i do mean everywhere. she don't get much baths, except the occasional heavenly shower. she has to endure my random ramblings, my cursing at other bad drivers, my countless breakdowns, and my horrible singing.

did i mention that i have a wonderful car? :- )
