pb + j

Saturdays are mostly boring, with us either home or going out, walking around places, eating at restaurants. Because the parents aren't back yet (but they will be, tonight!!!), and also because Mom is craving for her favorite butter cupcakes, which I hate to make. They're so buttery!!!!! And I just don't really like butter. But because she wanted some, I decided to make some. (Made honey cornflakes for the cousin + aunt yesterday, and delivered it to them :D )

peanut butter jelly cupcakes

My cupcakes are butter cupcakes. (It's actually a recipe for pound cake, I just made them into cupcakes instead.) I used a piping tip & bag to pipe some strawberry jam in them, and spread some peanut butter on the top as an icing, and also to cover the holes that the piping tip made. After piping about a dozen of them, I decided to taste them and realised... I didn't place the piping tip deep enough and the jam was only about 2 cm in the cupcakes. -_- That was such a failed attempt. So for those, I decided to place a dollop of jam on the top because the peanut butter taste was too strong and I didn't really like peanut butter, I just thought it would go well with the jelly. 

After like being on blogger for so long I still think wordpress is a little better just because I can private posts without private-ing my whole blog, which is what blogger makes you do if you want to publish private posts. Yeah, true, what's the point of having a blog if all your posts are private posts. I just think it's a good ranting space, like what a friend said, everyone has different ranting platforms. And for me, my ranting platform would have to be my blog, just because I sometimes like to rant in words and what other better way than a blog? Well some things should be better left unsaid. So, to compromise, I have decided to continue posting on my wordpress, but from now on, my wordpress posts will all be private posts, just as a platform for me to rant. If you feel like you want to read my angsty rants and everything, feel free to visit that place regularly. I'm a rather angsty person and I might have more posts there compared to here. No worries, I'll try to balance both and I won't forget to upload this place regularly. Highly doubt people visit this place but just in case, by some miraculous accident, people actually read my posts. :)

I'm not going to link my wordpress link here but if you're close to me you should already know my wordpress link. Posting it here will be redundant for you anyway coz you won't have the passwords to the links......... 

GRADUATION ON TUESDAY!!!!!!!

hectic

Sooooooooooo..

Okay I'm sure you're all sick of the "sorry for the lack of updates" crap because I throw it around too much hehehe. The reason why I've been so busy is because I really am!!!!!!! I've been working almost everyday, and when I'm not I rather hang out with people I love and also focus on getting my license. Yes, even though I already got my license, I'm getting it again, this time, from my dad. He's the toughest coach EVER. But I understand his heart behind all these, and I'm really thankful that he's teaching me and also so super patient with me. If you know my dad, he is the LEAST patient person in the entire world. I AM SERIOUS. 

I had a whole day to myself today and didn't feel like doing anything much, so, I cleaned the house! Because my parents are overseas (I probably shouldn't mention this...) and there's nobody to do the chores, I did them all. I washed and hung the clothes, vacuumed and mopped the entire house and scrubbed the balcony. Okay it doesn't sound like much because it is not much but I rarely do house chores and it is SO tiring. Did a bit of insanity after that and wanted to go for a jog but I realised I needed to rest because I am SO tired and decided to skip it. WHAT A LOSER. My stamina sucks BUT I WILL GO FOR A JOG I WILL I WILL I WILL. LATER LA OKAY. 

So work has been the same, all my baby girls all have jobs now and we rarely get to meet up now. Really miss school days because we get to see each other every single day and do almost everything together. It just feels like we've all really grew up and moved on with our lives. Okay, it's not as bad as I just made it sound but you get the drift. 


Every relationship starts and ends. For it to last, both parties have got to make it work and put in that extra effort for each other. Relationships aren't about changing yourself completely, but it's also about changing yourselves to be better people, not just for each other but for yourselves. There shouldn't be just one party putting in so much effort just to have it all go to waste. We're 20, it's time to move on and not be the kids we were 4/5 years ago. Well I guess even when people change, things change, there'll still be things that remain the same. It's all about moving on.


YES. 
I WILL GO AND JOG NOW.
